STRAW DOCTRINE

 STRAW DOCTRINE 

2Timothy [GW] 1:13-14 With faith and love for Christ Jesus, consider what you heard me say to be the pattern of accurate teachings. With the help of the Holy Spirit who lives in us, protect the Good News that has been entrusted to you. 

   With caption a nice photo of a manger scene was posted on Facebook. It getting a number of “Like” from professing Christians. But is it truly Biblically “sound doctrine”? Is it Holy Spirit inspired?  Does it project the Good News entrusted to God’s John 1:12 family of 2Corinthians 5:20 ambassadors?

  The nice manger picture and caption “One unplanned pregnancy saved us all.” is false on all counts! It is not sound doctrine. Not being sound doctrine, it is not Holy Spirit inspired. It is absolutely contrary to the Good News.

·         The birth of Jesus Christ was planned: Isa.7;14; 9;6; 53:3-7; Zech.9:9; 12:10; Ps.22:16-18

·         Jesus’ birth saves no one: Jn.3:3-21; Acts17:2-3

·         God’s Holy Spirit never contradicts God’s Word: Jn.16:4-15; 17:17

  Beware the quaintness of straw doctrine in its many sentimental forms.
