God Breathed. Divine Inspirationit means people wrote the scriptures and that the writers were inspired by God to write.
You have to be joking.What does that even mean?
Is that a divine dictation theory of inspiration that you're advocating?You have to be joking.
God speaks to man
Man writes down what God speak to him
The writing is Divinely Inspired
Then from my POV we are blending terms.
A theophany is Manifestation of God that is tangible to the human senses. In its most restrictive sense, it is a visible appearance of God in the Old Testament period often, but not always, in human form.
While a Christophany is Christ in the preincarnate appearance of Christ
so in essence, we should trust them, more then menit means people wrote the scriptures and that the writers were inspired by God to write.
Most Christians do. Not more than men, perhaps better than "mere men".so in essence, we should trust them, more then men
Is that a divine dictation theory of inspiration that you're advocating?
That sir is a translation mystery. I suspect it means inspired.What do you think God Breathed means?
The mystery ends when study is made.That sir is a translation mystery. I suspect it means inspired.
So this thing called "Sola Scriptura" would be a great thing then. not a bad thing, since it focuses our attention on these men moved by God. not men who may or may not interpret these men moved by God?Most Christians do. Not more than men, perhaps better than "mere men".
No.So this thing called "Sola Scriptura" would be a great thing then. not a bad thing, since it focuses our attention on these men moved by God. not men who may or may not interpret these men moved by God?
Have you not read what saint Peter says about the scriptures?The mystery ends when study is made.
it means exactly what it says. Holy Scripture is from God, not man, not tradition.
Saint Paul recognized it. Are you greater in knowledge than him?
That is God BreathedHave you not read what saint Peter says about the scriptures?
2 Peter 1:20-21 LSB Know this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture comes by one’s own interpretation. (21) For no prophecy was ever made by the will of man, but men being moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.
Make up your mind! Either you are writing about scripture, or you are writing about the Word who is God.That is God Breathed
The Scriptures have not been added to. By mere men who reside in palaces or traditions
Scripture stands on its own
Like Saint Paul plainly stated:
2Tim 3:16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
Either you believe God’s Word or you don’t.
Sola Scriptura is the purest form of faith and doctrine.No.
Sola scriptura is a bad thing because it is not true.
My mind is made up I’m not the ones who is confused on this matter.Make up your mind! Either you are writing about scripture, or you are writing about the Word who is God.
Logos means a spoken word, graphe means writing. Scripture is Latin and graphe is Greek, both mean writing. Your post fails to distinguish between what is spoke and what is written.My mind is made up I’m not the ones who is confused on this matter.
