My former pastor told me, "Why are you right & all the ministers in this denomination are wrong." (Appeal to authority) & another when I worked in street ministry, "You're firing a big cannon in the camp." There is a price to pay to go against the flow, in the Secular or Spiritual systems of this present AGE.
“Are you and your claims my authority, or is the Bible my authority? Am I just to accept teachings because they were presented in seminary? How does this make us any different from Judaism and its scribes? I thought the veil had been torn… is this not true, or is truth subject to the authorities of men?”
“Is this discussion about one of us being right, and one of us being wrong, or about both of us coming into a better understanding of truth?”
“Has any church dogma ever been wrong before? How would we know if this was one of those false dogmas without testing it?”
I questioned what my Chruch denomination taught, so I spent time alone in the country with just a Bible & concordance. I found & read every verse concerning the Coming of Jesus, that opened my eyes to the truth of the signs & His return. That was 1974, since then I have been studying more using Greek & Hebrew, also using The Ante-Nicene Fathers, Protestant commentary & many books on 'End Times'. Would give me your view so I know what believe & your reason for what you believe.
