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.
A manger picture
was posted on Facebook with the idea that one unplanned pregnancy saved the world. 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.
