Straw,

Very interesting that position would be based on a passage from Scripture (Jh. 5:39). Did it occur to you, in all your reading on the subject, that after all if Scripture can't finally be trusted as the inerrant, infallible, authoritative, word of God, the position that we are to look to Christ rather than the Scriptures is a theological fantasy? For if the Scriptures are not reliable, then neither is that to which they supposedly point!

There is only one who is inerrant and infallible and you know exactly who that is. He as spoken to us through His Son, and out of fear of losing the words we have immortalized the biblio and made it what it was never meant to be. The Scriptures are there to lead us to the Lord, however what do you see in Christendom for centuries and centuries a MIXED messaage. Not one Christian can agree with another for they are all hiding behind their theological position. We are only to have One that unifies us, one that leads us, guides us, comforts us and what was that faithful saying ... ??? .... This He did so that He could have His Spirit living in us. Such a treasure in earthern vessels, but what we have done is to bind a book, put a cover on it and bow down at it. No wonder Rome will not let go her idols, when we have one too.
