[QUOTE="mark46, post: 76821814, member: 257078"] You seem to think that giving a verse of Scripture and stating a conclusion is all there is to opening Scripture. All I did what to state what you seem to mean when you use the words "sola scriptura". There are literally thousands of posts on this board discussing that subject. I doubt very much that all of us would accept your definition and usage of the term. What do you mean by it. This is critical since you seem that saying those magic words ends all discussion. =================== To start, you might state what it is you are trying to "prove" through Scripture. Then, you might state the verse (and related ones) and how they prove your point. ============ Do you really think that Scripture teaches us that the state should be required to accept a Christian definition of marriage and not allow any other marriage in their jurisdiction? This might happen in a theocracy like Iran. Does it matter that many Christians accept same sex marriage. Many, many others reject homosexuality and homosexual marriage, yet they believe that the state should allow two of the same sex to marry. After all, not all Christians accept the idea of the state enforcing Christian morality. Should the state make adultery illegal? What about the birth control pill? The Catholic Church is against both, but does NOT support the state having such laws. [/QUOTE]
