Lance, Oh, so true!  (Surely, I am the exception!!!) J  But in all seriousness, that is one reason I don’t like to argue (versus polite, serious discussion) about doctrine—especially non-essential doctrine.  Who among us can say I am totally right and you are totally wrong?  (Well, other than a couple of you out there.) There are many ways to read and interpret the Word, and any sincere person can be half a bubble off. They don’t need human condemnation for that. Izzy

Some of that which each teaches is true, some false. Some of that which is false is harmful, some not. Think of a center point out which comes a spiral. The center is a Person. The spiral is that which we say/teach concerning Him via the Word&/His Words 

If the level of inexactitude reflected on TT were similarly reflected in "Rocket Science" well...(BOOM!!)

Sadly (in my opinion) some on TT believe themselves to be THE exception. I addressed this in an earlier post which DM dismissed (mistakenly) with a verbal flourish. David, the little equation includes you like it or not. Lance

Actually, Lance brings up a very good point.  Tradition.   A tough subject.   Why do we not support baptism for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38), foot washing, head coverings and the like while enforcing repentance for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38), womans place in leadership, and the like  Is there a hermeneutical rule that gets rid of some and keeps others?
