What about when theologians and Bible scholars use rationalized speculation? It's a bad thing. |
Theologians and Bible Scholars Sometimes Use Rationalized SpeculationsTheologians are guilty as charged in many, many cases. They go beyond what the Bible actually says and seem to do so without any regard for the sin they are committing. Liberal theologians make the mistake of thinking that the Bible has no more authority than their own carnal minds. Here is a little science on the problem of the human mind. God can take a Scripture and reveal its meaning. That's what happened to Martin Luther when God said to him, "By grace are you saved, by faith." That was a revelation, not a speculation. But many theologians are involved in the sin of either rationalized or spiritualized speculation. Rom 8:7 because the carnal mind is enmity against God, for it is not subject to the Law of God, neither indeed can it be. Detailed AnswerSome may think that the problem of speculatively rational-lies-ed theories is limited to science, but it covers every walk of life. It has particularly plagued the theologians who are constantly fighting among themselves over speculatively rational-lies-ed doctrine. Liberal theologians tend to knowingly use rational-lie-zed speculation, while conservative theologians tend to be unaware that they are rationalizing speculations. Conservatives think they are just using the Bible as it is written, but the natural human mind is very deceptive. If the Holy Spirit is revealing, then there will be unity among all who are really seeking God. For those who are depending on human intelligence, there will always be error with just enough truth to seem convincing. Ungodly people hold onto some basic assumptions.� They are filters and a way to censor out any information that supports the existence of God.� They set up a web of rules to filter out God.� They will only accept those things that conform to Naturalism, materialism, and uniformitarianism.� Naturalism claims that God does nothing.� Materialism claims that there is no God or spiritual realm.� Uniformitarianism claims that there was not creation and that there was no violent worldwide flood, as the Bible and numerous other historical accounts record.� Whatever they observe that does not conform to this complex filter is censored.� The way that it is censored can take several forms.� The ungodly may boldly proclaim that, though the data appears to support God's version and refute the version of the ungodly, yet it still must be interpreted to mean just the opposite of what it does mean.� A backup method that ungodly people use is to prophecy that in the future, science will be able to explain what they see as an anomaly.� If that fails, they will hide the data, set it aside, or lie to keep the public from knowing the truth.� The data clearly demolishes the story of the ungodly and clearly supports the reality of the Creator God, His Bible, and His abiding Presence in His people.� When confronted with the obvious, a closed-minded ungodly person says, "I can't understand it."� They are willingly ignorant because they refuse to hold God in their knowledge.� The reality is that these people, for whatever reason, don't what to know the Creator.� They don't want to truly know Jesus, their Creator. � Numbers 15:39... and that ye seek not after your own mind and your own ability to observe, with which you used to commit fornication: Psalm 53:1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? 1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness to him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. Proverbs 28:26 He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walks wisely, he shall be delivered. SummaryMany theologians have a strong tendency toward rationalized or spiritualized speculation. Many make the mistake of thinking that the Bible has no more authority than their own carnal minds.
