The Great Deception of the Bible - Foretold in Christianity
Responded with.....
"I believe Sola Scipture was
not made up in the 1500's whatsoever. It was the belief of all those throughout time that believed and followed God through His Word *
HEBREWS 11.
People only started drawing attention to it in the 1500's because the mother Church (Roman Catholic Church) started departing from what was written in the scriptures, handed down by God through the prophets, JESUS and the Apostles.
There is no such thing as the bible alone theory. I believe according to the scriptures it is biblical and always been in the scriptures as this is where we find both our faith and salvation for which there is no other way where we must be saved. JESUS is the living Word of God *
JOHN 1:1-4; 14 and has given us his gift of the written Word of God in the old and new testament scriptures.
I believe it is the scriptures alone that teach sola scriptura (the Word of God alone). Jesus says we are to live by EVERY WORD of it *
MATTHEW 4:4. It is the scriptures (the Word of God) which leads us to faith and salvation and if we depart the Word of God we depart the faith ......
ROMANS 10:17 [17], So then
FAITH COMES BY HEARING AND HEARING BY THE WORD OF GOD.
Now if faith comes by the
Word of God and
without faith it is impossible to please God and
whatsoever is not of faith is sin *
HEBREWS 11:6;
ROMANS 14:23; how can you have salvation if you have no faith when faith comes by the Word of God. If you have no word you have no faith and you are still in your sins and do not have salvation which according to the scriptures only comes by faith in God's Word (sola scriptura) see also
JOHN 3:15-21;
JOHN 10:26-27;
MATTHEW 7:22-26.
I choose to believe and follow the Word of God as JESUS says we are to live by EVERY WORD that proceeds out of the mouth of God *
MATTHEW 4:4.
There is nothing wrong with man made teachings and traditions if they lead us to God. However, JESUS says if we follow man made teachings and traditions that lead us to away from God to break his commandments we are not following God *
MATTHEW 15:2-9.
Any Church that leads anyone away from God's Word is leading them away from faith in God and their only hope of salvation IMO to follow the teachings and traditions of men over the Word of God. This is the true heresy in my opinion as the scriptures teach it is only those who believe and follow Gods Word that are his people *
JOHN 10:26-27;
MATTHEW 7:22-26.
This is the difference I believe according to the scriptures between the children of God and the children of the devil *
1 JOHN 3:6-10.
I believe
God has his people in every church. That does not mean every Church is following God's Word. I also believe the hour is coming and now is when the true worshippers where ever they may be are being called out from following man made teachings and traditions that break the commandments of God, back to the pure Word of God. *
JOHN 10:16; God is a Spirit and those who whorship him must whorship him in Spirit and in truth *
JOHN 4:23.
I believe the Apostle Peter when he says;
We ought to obey God rather than men *ACTS 5:29.
The teachings and traditions of men do not supersede the Word of God. If they are contrary to God's Word we need to follow the example of Peter.
More on what the prophecies teach a little latter and elsewhere."
