Post ... What HE says!

Isn't that a colloquial expression?... What he says?

You know, a kind of slang today when someone doesn't want to redefine what someone else said in his or her own words he or she says, "what he says". Lol... Well, that's the approach I like to take with the Word of God: What he says. At this point in my Christian life the only thing that matters to me is what he says. We can clarify what he says but I, for my part, draw the line there. If he doesn't say it I am NOT interested in it.

There are some things WL said which the Bible doesn't say and there's a good number of things he did not teach which the Bible does teach. I've had 25 years of what witness Lee says. I don't want to spend too much time on those in this thread, except for the sake of comparison and contrast. Rather, I would like to look at some of the things the Bible does teach and WL may not have.

I think this is the first law of hermeneutics, right? To take the Bible for what it says in its context? Please refine that if necessary. Thank you in advance.

David said " o how I love thy law! " if David were a 17-year-old Pittsburgher today I think he would say "yo! what he says, bro!"

You've heard the expression, "His word is law ". This simply means his word has authority. What he says goes. And a person like that you better take at his word. that's how I believe we should take God's Word. don't separate it into law versus grace. That will make you sick. Just take the whole thing. David also said, " the entrance of your words give light". All his word will do that. But we all know light supplies nutrients. it also kills germs. The important thing is that we be in the light.
