Re: [TruthTalk] Toronto Blessing & Alpha

John Wesley, when it came to deciding God's will on controversial issues, used 4 things to guide him. Scripture. Tradition. Reason. Experience. This later became known as the Wesleyan Quadrilateral.   In what way has Tradition, Reason and Experience influenced the people at TT? The RC believer come under similar influences.   Love,   Caroline ----- Original Message ----- From: ShieldsFamily To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Sent: Sunday, May 15, 2005 8:33 PM Subject: RE: [TruthTalk] Toronto Blessing & Alpha I believe that is because there are now laws that prohibit the RCC hierarchy from burning people at the stake for reading scripture.  So they play along.  At least if they lead the Bible studies they can brainwash their flock into making scripture inferior to the  �Traditions of the Church�.  Izzy   There does seem to be a renaissance of Catholics reading and studying the bible. Some are even moving beyond prescribed prayer. Not many but it's a start. Perhaps they will reform the church.    Love,   Caroline
