Sola Scriptura:

The Word of God is the final authroity. Yet with all the many off doctrines what's the problem right?

Many read the Word with great dedication. However when it comes to exegesis, and proper study, many have no clue, and thus the hermenuetics are off as well.

I think anyone who is seeking acurracy would be well served in taking a good foundation on bibliology, and Hermenuetics. Many a cult has been birthed by some fancy two stepping with some bad exegesis either in the translation or transliteration. Take a feww things out of context, mix it with improper interpretation and verification and BAM you have False Doctrine Soup.

Many can throw memorized verses around like Ali throws a left jab, but the key is to look deeper into the whole theology.

Bottom line, I think over a period of time the body of Christ has been conditioned to be almost apologetic for being bold and unyeilding on doctrine. i.e. intolerance, or close minded, or whatever. IT IS WRITTEN.

God bless, and having done all to stand....Stand!
