Dake Bible Discussion Board ⇒ Who is correct?

[Hill Top]

This going off track with a discussion on false teachers. Yes there are false teachers and anyone that abides in false teaching is as wrong as the person doing the teaching. But again that is totally different subject.

My point is most people that object to a denominational teaching most commonly do not know the actual denominational position.
What they heard and object too is often a denominational position that was stated incorrectly or explained incorrectly to them.

If they object to it, they must know what it is.
If they don't know the denominations teachings, all they can object to is the preacher's presentation.

Or they think they know and object to what they think they know!

Thanks be to God the true believers receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, so they can know with certainty.

If they seek the leading of the Holy Spirit. Unfortunately many take something heard, assumed, or read as fact and run with it.
Personally I have had people tell me all kinds of teachings they assign to a different denominations that are false. In fact many denominations accused of such and such teaching have in their statement of faith or doctrine statements that deny the very thing people often accuse them of.
