Doctrinal Statement of Bibilcal Christanity


THE DOCTRINAL STATEMENT OF FAITH



You know what is important is to what one believes especially when it comes to true bibical christianity, the lord Jesus Christ and the gospel being the present day bible. So I decided to look at doctrinal statements of faith.  In doing so I came across an "interesting article" which I will briefly discuss below. These doctrinal statements that I read especially the first one seems to be in line with true biblically Christianity.  The bible can be a study in of it's self but it is TRUE. The bible reveals Gods word and plan for humanity. This is the greatest book ever written. And it is TRULY inspired revelation from GOD!

DOCTRINAL STATEMENT 

1. CHOSEN PEOPLES MINISTRY
3. AMERICAN PROTESTANT CHURCH

Matthew 24:35 King James Version (KJV)

"35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away."
I came across this article when researching and I found it interesting and challenging. The article is very profound but when researching more I realize that Don Stewart gave a great feedback and profound defense of the articles suggestions on his writing concerning such a matter. It is true Jesus Christ is the word of God. The important thing is do people know whom the person of Jesus Christ "really" is and do they believe the doctrinal applications of true Biblical Christianity as written in the living inspired word of God being the Bible.

In the article one persons partial response is interesting and as quoted...

"And, I think, they're also trying to establish a principle by which one can avoid errors about Jesus. For of course one risk is always "making God in our own image"; i.e. inventing an imaginary Jesus only distantly related to the actual Person, and worshiping THAT."


"So by establishing the Bible as their source for coming to know Who Jesus Is, they are trying to provide a data-set to which they can have recourse, if someone comes 'round selling a false Jesus as the real thing. By comparison to the data-set, they hope to sort out the counterfeits from the authentic Christ."


Great thinking and response above as quoted. Ever hear the phrase "don't put God in a box". People misunderstand/mis-use that. The bible tells us things revealed are only a shadow of things to come most likely referring to the afterlife in The Kingdom of God. Some people use that phrase to say all born again Christians have the power to heal people. There is something called dispensationalism in biblical studies and I think Justine Peters looks at this issue with a level head. Not to say that God cannot heal as he can/does but it’s by his will. This is a study in of its self. 

The devil deceives people as to WHOM the person of Jesus Christ really is!!!! And the bible tells us to "prove" all things. Jesus was Jewish and not a pagan or Idol worshipper. As I said before he gave us solid revelation as to NOT be deceived but the world truly is. There is a saying that "The Bible proves its self." True!! The word of God is TRUTH. There are a couple of important links when questions arise and they are http://coldcasechristianity.com & http://rzim.org Both of these link authors are profound in Christianity investigations and apologetics.

The article in question & interest basically said the bible should not be made into a Idol and realize God is above the inerrancy claimed by Christian Churches. And the argument/rebuttals are profound as well. The bible is TRUE and people should read the bible. Salvation is a free gift that no man can boast but there needs to be a profession of faith and a repentance and belief on the gospel. 

Just in case you may be puzzled regarding Biblical inerrancy see below....

What is Biblical inerrancy? "Biblical inerrancy is the belief that the Bible "is without error or fault in all its teaching"; or, at least, that "Scripture in the original manuscripts does not affirm anything that is contrary to fact". Some equate inerrancy with biblical infallibility; others do not."

Here are a couple of links that may help you understand Bibical Inerrancy below.
