[TruthTalk] God's Word

[Judy Taylor]

Caroline, they had the scriptures; the NT is hidden in the old and the OT is revealed in the new.  In case you haven't heard there is a war going on and it is a war against God's Word; we have an adversary a mind jumbler if you will.  It's not a matter of perfect theology - it's a matter of apprehending the Truth as it is in Christ Jesus because it is in Him that we either stand or fall.  It's either a pure heart of faith in God's Word or an evil heart of unbelief.  Theologians are expendable.  jt   Caroline writes:  After Jesus Christ ascended and within one generation, all that they were taught in the OT will change. They didn't have the New Testament. They were living and working it out. Paul said they didn't need anyone to teach them, they had the spirit of Christ within them. But misunderstanding and bad thinking dogged Paul's ministry. He wrote his letters to rebuke people or correct bad theology or answer basic questions of life. Error in theology will continue to dog Christianity for 2000 years. Having the bible is no guarantee of 100% Truth. Nor is having the bible AND the Holy Spirit. All the great theologians have errors in their theology. Some like John Stott change major ones as they mature in the faith. He no longer believes the suffering in hell is eternal.
