Didascalia Apostolorum Teaching of the Apostles inspired scripture

[ARBITER01]

Your statement leaves it to anybody to 'discern' some 'new revelation' that God hasn't provided for in the Bible. In practice that is what an open canon involves.

My statement is true. If GOD wants to provide more revelation, there is nothing saying that HE can't.

You might not like that, but again, the statement is true.

God could change the effect of Raleigh scattering so that the sky appeared green instead of blue. Also a true statement.
God could raise the Titanic. Also a true statement.

Yes, true statements.

Sorry. I know you believe what you state, but it is a recipe for all sorts of people who claim they have a direct pipeline from God to make up all sorts of new revelation. In fact, it happens all the time. Mohammad started a whole new religion with his inventions that he 'discerned' came direct from God. And so on and so forth, going on today in all sorts of congregations where some guy decides to add a bit of new teaching based on nothing more than his own inventiveness. Or maybe he earnestly believes he was given a real revelation, thinking God is doing something brand new that only he can hear.

It actually comes down to what new doctrine or dogma you think God is going to give us that was not revealed in Jesus Christ to His apostles.

It's not a debate.

I agree. It's been you telling me I'm wrong and need to discern GOD more.

So the sky could be green come morning. White the day after. Red the next day. Everything could change at any moment. Deus vult. OK. God can do whatever He wants, whenever He wants. Does that mean that He will?

 

[ARBITER01]

I agree. It's been you telling me I'm wrong and need to discern GOD more.

Oh yes, that's exactly what I was doing.
