Just one of many false teachings.Look how many Churches u have.Listen what do they teaching.Will u find one Holy Apostolic Protestant Church?Never!In the false teaching of Sola Scriptura is disunity.That is,be sure,manifestation that Holy Spirit left those who has left teaching of holy fathers of early Church.
hi Geo
no, the disunity is not in Sola Scriptura, it's always in presuppositions, and dogmatic traditions brought to Sola Scriptura.
i'm sure i could find a church with a sign which reads "Holy Apostolic Protestant Church"...so?
EO adheres to Apostolic Succession (like Rome, and some Evangelical NAR groups), correct?
the Patriarchs are supposedly as authoritative as Peter of Paul. is that so?
the Holy Spirit has left those who don't hoard (in vaults) and pour over obscure mystical musings of early EO 'fathers'?
this is not to say many of them were not godly men, or that their teachings aren't valuable. i read and listened to sermons/teachings by EO men, and found some of it fruitful.
but declaring the Holy Spirit abandons anyone not vowing obsequiousness to EO traditions and rituals.....?
no, i don't think so.
2 Timothy 3
All Scripture Is Breathed Out by God
10You, however, have followed my teaching, my conduct, my aim in life, my faith, my patience, my love, my steadfastness, 11my persecutions and sufferings that happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, and at Lystra—which persecutions I endured; yet from them all the Lord rescued me. 12Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, 13while evil people and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whoma you learned it 15and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17that the man of Godb may be competent, equipped for every good work.
like....to each their own.
but there's wa-a-a-a-a-ay too much esoterica in EO for my liking.
