I would encourage to saints to "fire away" and define to their hearts content. Just don't commit the error of thinking you have "laid hold" of the truth. At best you are merely a stepping-stone to the next person. The LSM error is the same as Rome's in that they say "Stop here; the definition process is finished. The interpretation process is closed."

I love what Timotheist has done. I just think it is tentative, and inconclusive, as we all are. Only Christ is at the finish line.



hey,
I think that pretending ones definition is definitive IS in a sense overdefining it...(sorry you misunderstood)
I also think Timotheist has put together a great article. I agree with it...my critique wasn't of his article, rather of WL's and the RC's system of controlling who goes where.
