You know I have had a few very sweet and wise replies on this subject, but I am amazed at the lack of interest in this subject. this is more important then debating scripture or any philosophy. It is the most important test for any teaching. Without a test of function and purpose in a teaching, how do we determine it's worth in following? If a…[Read more]

Ramblin -This board is entertaining but to be able to use this venue as a ministry or even a very good teaching tool is very doubtfull. The only thing that can honestly be accompolished is the exchange of intelectual data and philosophy. This is not the way in which Christ or the apostles taught. True biblical teachers, that are of great service,…[Read more]

Quote (942767 @ Dec. 19 2006,00:34)Hi M42:Our purpose as God's children is to glorify Him in the earth as we learn to apply His Word that He has taught us through the example of the life of our Lord Jesus.  We become like Him in our character as we learn to apply his Word in our daily lives.Of course, we are interested in drawing others into a…[Read more]

Well I think I am tired of the board police on here. I think it is time to get off here. If I were not bored to death right now, I would have left sooner.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 17 2006,22:21)Hi m42, Feeding on the Word of God, the bread of life, allows the growth of Christ in his brothers.

You konw Nick, I appeciate your knowledge of scripture references, but you still have not answered the question. I will not be swayed from my question. In your own words tell me the purpose of teaching? What are we trying to accompolish in study? God has a plan. What is the plan and how does teaching function to help fullfill that plan.

thank you for your coment, although you did not answer my pimary question. What is the purpose of Doctrine?I think part of your statement is wrong but I will not be side stepped again from my question.
