DAVEH:  To Kevin and Perry, who both responded to my post regarding ALL God revealed being included in the Bible.  I did not realize that my questions would find you so disagreeable.  DavidM previously posted what to me seemed a pretty convincing argument (from Scripture) that I will post below.  I don't recall either of you getting excited about his suggestion that ALL is not included in the Bible.  Is your disagreement with me on this simply because of my LDS background, or do you really believe ALL God has revealed is included in the Bible???     Note:  The passages you quoted before do not say ALL is included in the Bible, Kevin.  IF you have any passages that DO say such, please post them.  Otherwise, it would seem to be your opinion that ALL God has revealed is included in the Bible....And I believe your opinion is wrong. Perry wrote: > I do beleive that the scriptures contain all > knowledge and truth in that it provides all > knowledge and truth regarding spiritual things, No way. Even Paul speaks of a man going into the third heaven and receiving knowledge that was not lawful to utter. John bears similar testimony in the book of Revelation, being forbidden to write certain things that he heard. Apparently you have not yet had experiences like this yourself. Kevin wrote: As someone who we all love once said: "It depends on what the definition of IS, IS!"   As far as I am concerned ALL does not mean some. There is another word for that it is called "some" You play fast and easy with the text. Just another example of the LOW REGARD for God's Word of many on TT.   Perfect example of forcing your context into the text!   Isogesis is to come to the text with our own presuppositions and thoughts coloring the way you read and interpret the text. Bringing those things "into" the text is isogesis, rather than taking "out" of the text, what it confers is exegesis Charles Perry Locke wrote: From: Dave Hansen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> DAVEH: Wouldn't that suggest *_ALL_* means less than everything?
