I have spent considerable time in the last 2 months compiling a chart that gives an accurate description in brief "sound bites" of what four major theological systems believe about 33 topics of discussion from Scripture. Much of this work was already done at various places on the web....however, I kept finding that depending on the view of the site owners, often the other views being offered were not shown in a manner that was completely accurate. There was obvious bias.
So, I have scoured the web and read several books from these different theologies to see if I could accurately and fairly indicate where there is agreement between the systems and where there is disagreement.
I hope this chart will help us all understand the positions of those with whom we discuss the Scriptures.
There is enough destruction of "straw men" on the web that we have an endless supply of hay. But hay is for horses.
What do these systems [i:a1d0c6e83f]really[/i:a1d0c6e83f] believe?
NOTE: If you adhere to a particular system and I have mis-represented it, please let me know. I am not putting this out there to defend any one position, but as a help in knowing where we are all coming from as we search the Scriptures. I want the list to be accurate. I have already made updates to the list 4 times in 2 months. I am sure it will change again in the future.
I will post the chart in my next post below.
In search of truth, for to know truth is to know Christ!
