  Kevin's criticisms 
  are godly. You may disagree with them, I may choose to make a more 
  moderate approach to them, but the truth is, we must learn to be wary to falsehoods and 
  lies. I am starting to see that more and more Christians do not 
  take things as seriously as they should. The feminism movement is an 
  example of this. It may not have seemed to obvious to the church in the 
  1960s what this movement would produce, and I'm sure it didn't seem like 
  such a powerful movement at first, so they chose not to take a stand. But 
  so much of society's moral decay has stemmed from that movement: 
  immodesty, the erroding of the family 
  unit, the confusion of gender roles, the rise of moral relativism and 
  humanism, the rise of sexual promescuity, etc.Kevin's "putting people down" as you say is not act of 
  bitterness or pride, but out of passion for the Truth. This passionate 
  support/disdain of Kevin's is so 
  crucial, especially in the last days. We must also be passionate 
  in our support or rejection of the different issues.Mat.

  it! Don't you think that at some point---probably much sooner

  you believe that of the billions who descended from AE, none

  Christians blame AE for the misery in the world, when it was

Kevin's 
criticisms are godly. You may disagree with them, I may choose to 
make a more moderate approach to them, but the truth is, we must learn to be wary to 
falsehoods and lies. I am starting to see that more and more 
Christians do not take things as seriously as they should. The 
feminism movement is an example of this. It may not have seemed to 
obvious to the church in the 1960s what this movement would produce, 
and I'm sure it didn't seem like such a powerful movement at first, 
so they chose not to take a stand. But so much of society's moral 
decay has stemmed from that movement: immodesty, the erroding of the family unit, the 
confusion of gender roles, the rise of moral relativism and 
humanism, the rise of sexual promescuity, etc.Kevin's "putting people down" as you say is not act of 
bitterness or pride, but out of passion for the Truth. This 
passionate support/disdain of Kevin's is so crucial, especially in the last days. 
We must also be passionate in our support or rejection of 
the different issues.Mat. 11:12And from the days of John

This is all pure moonshine. I couldn't write in that way at all. Everything began with

At first there wasn't even anything Christian about them; that element pushed itself in of its own accord" (Of Other Worlds, p. 36).http://www.rapidnet.com/~jbeard/bdm/exposes/lewis/general.htmLewis termed himself "very Catholic" -- his prayers for the dead, belief in purgatory, and rejection of the literal resurrection of the body are serious deviations from Biblical Christianity (C.S. Lewis: A Biography, p. 234); he even went to a priest for regular confession (p. 198), and received the sacrament of extreme
 unction on 7/16/63 (p. 301). His contention that some pagans may "belong to Christ without knowing it" is a destructive heresy (Mere Christianity, pp. 176-177), as was his statement that "Christ fulfils both Paganism and Judaism ..." (Reflections on the Psalms, p. 129). Lewis believed that we're to become "gods," an apparent affirmation of theistic evolution. He also believed the Book of Job is "unhistorical" (Reflections on the Psalms, pp. 110), and that the Bible contained "error" (pp. 110, 112) and is not divinely inspired (The Inklings, p. 175). Lewis used profanities, told bawdy stories, and frequently got drunk with his students (5/19/90, World magazine).

WOW you know a lot about that stuff are you an OCCULTIST?What was with the sacrifice of a Black sheep?The Author is D M Quinn  He is a commited Mormon.   He is a Professor at BYU  from the publisher:In this ground-breaking book, D. Michael Quinn masterfully reconstructs an earlier age, finding ample evidence for folk magic in nineteenth-century New England, as he does in Mormon founder Joseph Smith's upbringing. Quinn discovers that Smith's world was inhabited by supernatural creatures whose existence could be both symbolic and real. He explains that the Smith family's treasure digging was not unusual for the times and is vital to understanding how early Mormons interpreted developments in their history in ways that differ from modern perceptions. Quinn's impressive research provides a much-needed background for the environment that produced Mormonism.   This thoroughly researched examination into occult traditions surrounding Smith, his family, and other founding Mormons cannot be understated. Among the practices no longer a part of Mormonism are the use of divining rods for revelation, astrology to determine the best times to conceive children and plant crops, the study of skull contours to understand personality traits, magic formula utilized to discover lost property, and the wearing of protective talismans. Ninety-four photographs and illustrations accompany the text.   [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:  In a message dated 12/7/2005 5:14:05 A.M.

 Blainerb: Like most of what you quote,your author was apparently depending on the ignorance of the reader to persuade against Joseph Smith. Yes, Joseph was born on December 23, and thatmeans the sun was inthe first decan of Capricorn. However, the ruling planet for Capricorn was never Jupiter--it is and always has been Saturn. Jupiter is the ruler of one sign of the zodiac only and that is Sagittarius. Upon checking other signs for Joseph Smith, I see the moon was in the sign Aquarius, also ruled by Saturn. If Joseph had worn a Saturn talisman, your writer's comments might have some validity--as it is,it's obvious he's a liar who cares nothing for the truth.

The hours of his prayer and vision were ruled by planets and the moon, making the time particularly propitious

DAVEH: I respectfully disagree on this one, Terry. IMHO, it is safe
to speculate that some (if not most) of AE's descendants would
have transgressed. Look at AEit didn't take them too long to
transgress. Do you think Cain, Hitler or any of the other villains of
history would have remained angels? I submit to you that there would
proportionally be very few who would not have transgressed. Consider
another example. Adults have preached to kids ad nauseam to avoid
smoking, alcohol, sex and drugs. Just denying them such, entices many
it seems. Sowould you reasonably expect any but a few of
AE's descendants to withstand the temptations that Eve failed to
avoid?
  
 Here's something to ponder: What effect would monkeys, horses or
whatever animals inhabiting the Garden of Eden eating the forbidden
fruit have had IFF AE hadn't?

God is omnicient, He knew they would sin. He did not plan

As to their descendents missing the mark, who knows? All we

speculate, and speculation often leads to error.

DAVEH: Thank you two for your comments, both of which focus in one
facet of the AE situation of which I am most keen. One of my
earliest religious memories was a comment a neighborhood kid made to me
in which he said AE screwed it up for us by taking the forbidden
fruit. He explained that had they not transgressed, we would all live
forever without experiencing death. Even though the kid was less than
religious later on in life, his comment always struck me as being
intriguing, and now you folks have sparked that fire again.
  
 I must be missing something about your (forgive mebut let me
say, Protestant) belief about the fall. If AE had not
transgressed, do you think none of their descendants would have
transgressed? In my experience, the best way to get a kid to do
something, is to forbid him from doing it! Don't you think that at
some point---probably much sooner than later---one of AE's
children would have fallen? Or do you believe that of the billions who
descended from AE, none would ever have transgressed? Just what
are the chances of that happening.zilch?!?!?!
  
 Sowhy do most Christians blame AE for the misery in the
world, when it was inevitable. From my perspectivenot only was it
expected, but it was planned. And...evidently you believe that as
well, since you believe Jesus was foreordained to be our Savior from
before the world was created.that it was planned? (Please let me
know if you do not believe such.) Yet you apparently don't believe
that God wanted it to happen that way. Do you see why your perspective
perplexes me? It doesn't seem logical. Like I saidperhaps I'm
missing something about the way you understand it.

2005-12-08 Thread Terry Clifton




I truly wish you could see this ,Dave, because it is important to our
understanding. The tree was there for a reason. God could have
programmed every creature to behave exactly as He wanted them to, but
He did not. He even gave angels a choice. He wants us to come to Him
out of love, just as He comes to us out of love. To do that, we must
make a choice. We CHOOSE to love Him. We show that love by living to
please Him. We show our SELFishness by doing what we want to do. We
do not need to disobey to be stronger. We need to obey, for our own
good.
You do not keep your wife in a bubble, but you also do not tell your
wife to go out and play around with drugs or catch aids so that she can
be more resistant to these things. ( I use your wife here because I do
not know if you have children or other family. )



Dave Hansen wrote:

  
   God's desire was for them to remain pure and innocent, just as

the desire of any father for his children.
  
DAVEH: I probably shouldn't intrude on Blaine's discussion with you,
Terry. But, it seems to me that God could easily have kept AE pure
and innocent, had he wanted to do so. For instance, he could
either have kept Satan out of the Garden of Eden, or he could have not
placed the tree of knowledge of good and evil there. Orhe could
simply have not commanded them not to partake. But he didn't do any
of those things. IMO, God wanted AE to transgress for a reason.
  
 FWIW.While it may be noble to want to keep one's children pure
and innocent, a loving parent who overly protects their children
will end up with kids acutely susceptible to the ills of the world. I
see it similar to communicable illnesses. You could raise your kid in
a bubble and he would live a germ/virus free life. But once he enters
the real world, he would be extremely vulnerable to catching a slew of
nasty bugs. Isn't it much better to allow your kid be exposed to such
hazards so that he can become inoculated against the ravages in the
strength of his youth than allow such illnesses to eventually attack
later in life when one is perhaps more vulnerable? I see that somewhat
as an analogy to the tree knowledge of good and evil. I hope that
makes a little sense, Terry. (Though I'm sure some TTers will take
exception.) FTRI don't think that is the sole reason for the
tree though.
  
 It is obvious that God did not expect his creations to remain
pure and innocent, and he knew that they would not remain so in the
situation he placed them. But it was necessary for them to go through
that process for a specific reason, as I don't believe God was just
wishfully hoping they would remain pure and innocent.
  
 I do appreciate you sharing your belief about it though, Terry.

You have grown over the years, according to your words below. Im
sure CSL did also. No one has it all together immediately. Cut
people some slack; especially those who spend their lives writing and speaking
Christian apologetics to the best of their understanding. I think his
personal choices were exemplary. And since when is making a lot of
money writing a sin?

I read Linda's
observations and there was a time when I may have agreed with her - However, I
now believe that a heart truly surrendered to Christ would have layed aside the
classical education and mythology rather than try to mix it like oil and
water. Paul had a pretty good education himself and he counted it as dung
compared to the knowledge of Christ. For the record I don't believe CSL
actually knew the Lord though he may have been up on doctrinal orthodoxy and he
made a lot of money with his writing. His personal choices tell the rest
of the story.

http://www.rapidnet.com/~jbeard/bdm/exposes/lewis/general.htm

Lewis termed himself "very Catholic" -- his prayers for the dead, belief in purgatory, and rejection of the literal resurrection of the body are serious deviations from Biblical Christianity (C.S. Lewis: A Biography, p. 234); he even went to a priest for regular confession (p. 198), and received the sacrament of extreme unction on 7/16/63 (p. 301). His contention that some pagans may "belong to Christ without knowing it" is a destructive heresy (Mere Christianity, pp. 176-177), as was his statement that "Christ fulfils both Paganism and Judaism ..." (Reflections on the Psalms, p. 129). Lewis believed that we're to become "gods," an apparent affirmation of theistic evolution. He also believed the Book of Job is "unhistorical" (Reflections on the Psalms, pp. 110), and that the Bible contained "error" (pp. 110, 112) and is not divinely inspired (The Inklings, p. 175). Lewis used profanities, told bawdy stories, and frequently got drunk with his students (5/19/90, World magazine). Christians need to read more critically The Abolition of Man, The Problem of Pain, Miracles, The Great Divorce, and God in the Dock. For example, Lewis never believed in a

transgress. Do you think Cain, Hitler or any of the other villains of
history would have remained angels? I submit to you that there would
proportionally be very few who would not have transgressed. Consider
another example. Adults have preached to kids ad nauseam to avoid
smoking, alcohol, sex and drugs. Just denying them such, entices many
it seems. Sowould you reasonably expect any but a few of
AE's descendants to withstand the temptations that Eve failed to
avoid?

 Here's something to ponder: What effect would monkeys, horses or
whatever animals inhabiting the Garden of Eden eating the forbidden
fruit have had IFF AE hadn't?

DAVEH: Thank you two for your comments, both of which focus in one
facet of the AE situation of which I am most keen. One of my
earliest religious memories was a comment a neighborhood kid made to me
in which he said AE screwed it up for us by taking the forbidden
fruit. He explained that had they not transgressed, we would all live
forever without experiencing death. Even though the kid was less than
religious later on in life, his comment always struck me as being
intriguing, and now you folks have sparked that fire again.

 I must be missing something about your (forgive mebut let me
say, Protestant) belief about the fall. If AE had not
transgressed, do you think none of their descendants would have
transgressed? In my experience, the best way to get a kid to do
something, is to forbid him from doing it! Don't you think that at
some point---probably much sooner than later---one of AE's
children would have fallen? Or do you believe that of the billions who
descended from AE, none would ever have transgressed? Just what
are the chances of that happening.zilch?!?!?!

 Sowhy do most Christians blame AE for the misery in the
world, when it was inevitable. From my perspectivenot only was it
expected, but it was planned. And...evidently you believe that as
well, since you believe Jesus was foreordained to be our Savior from
before the world was created.that it was planned? (Please let me
know if you do not believe such.) Yet you apparently don't believe
that God wanted it to happen that way. Do you see why your perspective

Kevin's criticisms are godly. You may disagree with them, I may choose to make a more moderate approach to them, but the truth is, we must learn to be wary to falsehoods and lies. I am starting to see that more and more Christians do not take things as seriously as they should. The feminism movement is an example of this. It may not have seemed to obvious to the church in the 1960s what this movement would produce, and I'm sure it didn't seem like such a powerful movement at first, so they chose not to take a stand. But so much of society's moral decay has stemmed from that movement: immodesty, the erroding of the family unit, the confusion of gender roles, the rise of moral relativism and humanism, the rise of sexual promescuity, etc.Kevin's "putting people down" as you say is not act of bitterness or pride, but out of passion for the Truth. This passionate support/disdain of Kevin's is so crucial, especially in the last days. We must also be passionate in our support or rejection of the different issues.Mat. 11:12And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Kevin's criticisms are godly. You may disagree with 
them, I may choose to make a more moderate approach to them, but the 
truth is, we must learn to be 
wary to falsehoods and lies. I am starting to see that more and 
more Christians do not take things as seriously as they should. The 
feminism movement is an example of this. It may not have seemed to 
obvious to the church in the 1960s what this movement would produce, and 
I'm sure it didn't seem like such a powerful movement at first, so they 
chose not to take a stand. But so much of society's moral decay has 
stemmed from that movement: immodesty, the erroding of the family 
unit, the confusion of gender roles, the rise of moral relativism and 
humanism, the rise of sexual promescuity, 
etc.Kevin's "putting people down" as you say is not act 
of bitterness or pride, but out of passion for the Truth. This 
passionate support/disdain of Kevin's is so crucial, especially 
in the last days. We must also be passionate in our support or 
rejection of the different issues.Mat. 11:12And from the 
days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by 
force.[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Not necessarily; being over protective through fear is one thing. Teaching children spiritual discernment in the fear of God is another because then the parent has His power and watchful eye on their side.I see it similar to communicable illnesses. You could raise your kid in a bubble and he would live a germ/virus free life. But once he enters the real world, he would be extremely vulnerable to catching a slew of nasty bugs. Isn't it much better to allow your kid be exposed to
 such hazards so that he can become inoculated against the ravages in the strength of his youth than allow such illnesses to eventually attack later in life when one is perhaps more vulnerable?This is what the wisdom of the world teaches. But we are fearfully and wonderfully made and God has given us an immune system which should be able to throw off anything that comes our way when not compromised by sin.I see that somewhat as an analogy to the tree knowledge of good and evil. I hope that makes a little sense, Terry. (Though I'm sure some TTers will take exception.) FTRI don't think that is the sole reason for the tree though.Thetrees in the garden DaveH are the two kinds of wisdom. The tree of life is "pure, peaceable, and full of good fruit" and this is the tree God wanted His
 creation to eat from. The other tree - the one the serpent was promoting - is earthly, sensual, and demonic. So take your pick. One leads to life and the other to death.   judyt He that says "I know Him" and doesn't keep His Commandments is a liar (1 John

While it may be noble to want to keep one's children pure and innocent, a loving parent who overly protects their children will end up with kids acutely susceptible to the ills of the world. 

NONSENSE
That is like saying a gardner who overprotects his PRIZE flowers from weeds and pests will end up with flowers that are acutely susceptible to it! Prize Flowers are to be handled with care preferably in a safe environment like a greenhouse.
Allowing access to your children to those things that would mean to do them harm is a foolish philosophy

The Next Generation of LeadershipThe most important people are the ones that history glosses over and such is the case with Home Schooling families. The presence of kids who were Homeschooled in the 1980s and '90s is beginning to be felt more and more in our cultural life. Dr. Brien Ray did a fascinating study on homeschoolers and found that 73% of homeschoolers 18-24 vote compared to 29% of all people their age. The voting percentage goes up to 95% for people above age 25 and they're three times more likely than their fellow citizens to give political contributions. 74% of homeschoolers have taken college courses, compared to only 46% of the general population. Ironically, homeschoolers who were predicted to be social misfits, are more active and involved in their community's politics than the general population.Parents who chose to make extraordinary sacrifices to ensure their children aren't led astray by the dominant
 culture are getting extraordinary results as 94% of homeschoolers are holding to their parents religious beliefs.The Homeschooled kids of the '90s will be the leaders of the next century because of hard work, sacrifice, and loving families. I was homeschooled, but am hardly the best or brightest of the bunch. I never thought about it much as a kid, but having been around both homeschooled and public school kids as an adult, I'm struck by the general courtesy, kindness, and advance vocabulary of homeschooled kids. They're a shining beacon of hope in this present darkness, and a reminder of God's abiding faithfulness.
And the nay sayers said "O NO how are they going to learn to Socialize?"

Not necessarily; being over protective through fear is one thing. Teaching children spiritual discernment in the fear of God is another because then the parent has His power and watchful eye on their side.

I see it similar to communicable illnesses. You could raise your kid in a bubble and he would live a germ/virus free life. But once he enters the real world, he would be extremely vulnerable to catching a slew of nasty bugs. Isn't it much better to allow your kid be exposed to such hazards so that he can become inoculated against the ravages in the strength of his youth than allow such illnesses to eventually attack later in life when one is perhaps more vulnerable?

This is what the wisdom of the world teaches. But we are fearfully and wonderfully made and God has given us an immune system which should be able to throw off anything that comes our way when not compromised by sin.

I see that somewhat as an analogy to the tree knowledge of good and evil. I hope that makes a little sense, Terry. (Though I'm sure some TTers will take exception.) FTRI don't think that is the sole reason for the tree though.

Thetrees in the garden DaveH are the two kinds of wisdom. The tree of life is "pure, peaceable, and full of good fruit" and this is the tree God wanted His creation to eat from. The other tree - the one the serpent was promoting - is earthly, sensual, and demonic. So take your pick. One leads to life and the other to death.

Re: [TruthTalk] The Triune God, Holy Scripture Interpretation - Why diverse...

2005-12-08 Thread Blainerb473




Blainerb: These are great questions, Lance, I 
don't usually bother, but I even took time to look up some of your words in my 
dictionary to be sure I understood them. :) See my comments in blue 
below:

In a message dated 12/7/2005 5:16:02 A.M. Mountain Standard Time, 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

  Are we promised any more than 'enough' 
  understanding to facilitate salvation?
I think you may not expect more than you are willing to 
receive, Lance. Joseph Smith was not allowed to open the sealed 
portion of the golden plates, due to the pride and unbelief that was 
projected among the Gentile population. Even the parts he did translate 
are usually rejected by those who pretend to beteachers of the 
gospel. 

  
  Does 'study' matter when it comes to 
  Scripture? What's entailed in this 
'study'?

Study is productive, assuming the Holy Spirit is taken 
as one's guide. Without it, studyresults in "ever learning, 
but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth."

  
  What is the role of the Holy Spirit 
  inapprehending the 'gospel', the act of exegesis, the act of exposition 
  (either spoken or written), office/sign gifts?

I'd say it is critical. See the parable of the 
Ten Virgins. Those who took the Holy Spirit for their guides were prepared 
to enter into the covenant relationship as the "Bride" to the Bridegroom. 
Those who were not prepared by the Spirit were not spiritually prepared for the 
marriage. 

  
  Is there even the possibility of the entire 
  believing community, globally, coming to a unitary understanding of the entire 
  corpus of Scripture?

Ideally, there is no reason why not. But 
practically speaking, I see little or no hope. Human pride is the reason 
it will never happen. Every man does his own thing, becomes egoistically 
married to his position, and that leads to strife, wherein the devil may then 
play his games amongst us. 

  
  Do even the most mature (godly/holy/sanctified) 
  believers possess only a partial/limited understanding of the Holy 
  Scriptures?
 Ifwe put our foot 
downagainstnew truth when it is introduced, we can hardly claim to 
be Godly/Holy/Sanctified, despite your most carefully constructed facade 
of being otherwise.We can, of course, always resort to being 
sanctimonious, as did the Jews who prayed in public to be heard of men, 
etc. :) 

Do all believers err, at some points, in their 
understanding and therefore, teaching of the Holy Scriptures? Does this 
necessarily represent sin? When as a believer something of your teaching is 
errant relative to ontological truth and, you discover this to be so then, what 
steps ought you to take to rectify the matter vis a vis those who received this 
teaching?

I am not sure I understand what you are getting at, but I refer you 
to 76th section of the Doctrine and Covenants, verses 5-10--I hope this 
might be something of an answer for you:

5"For thus saith the Lord--I the Lord am merciful and 
gracious unto those who fear me, and delight to honor those who 
serve me in righteousness and in truth unto the end.
6 "Great shall be their reward, and 
eternal shall be their glory.
7 "And to them will I reveal all 
mysteries of my kingdom from days of old, and for ages to come, will I make 
known unto them the good pleasure of my will concerning all things pertaining to 
my kingdom.
8 "Yea, and even the wonders of 
eternity shall they know, and things to come will I show them, even the things 
of many generations.
9 "And their wisdom shall be 
great, and their understanding reach to heaven, and before them the wisdom of 
the wise shall perish, and the understanding of the prudent shall come to 
naught.
10 "For by my spirit will I 
enlighten them, and by my power will I make known unto them the secrets of my 
will--yea, even those things which eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor yet 
entered into the heart of man."

"Some people seem to think that I began by asking myself how I could say something about Christianity to children; then fixed on the fairy tale as an instrument; then collected information about child-psychology and decided what age group I'd write for; then drew up a list of basic Christian truths and hammered out 'allegories' to embody them. This is all pure moonshine. I couldn't write in that way at all. Everything began with images; a faun carrying an umbrella, a queen on a sledge, a magnificent lion. At first there wasn't even anything Christian about them; that element pushed itself in of its own accord" (Of Other Worlds, p. 36).

Lewis termed himself "very Catholic" -- his prayers for the dead, belief in purgatory, and rejection of the literal resurrection of the body are serious deviations from Biblical Christianity (C.S. Lewis: A Biography, p. 234); he even went to a priest for regular confession (p. 198), and received the sacrament of extreme unction on 7/16/63 (p. 301). His contention that some pagans may "belong to Christ without knowing it" is a destructive heresy (Mere Christianity, pp. 176-177), as was his statement that "Christ fulfils both Paganism and Judaism ..." (Reflections on the Psalms, p. 129). Lewis believed that we're to become "gods," an apparent affirmation of theistic evolution. He also believed the Book of Job is "unhistorical" (Reflections on the Psalms, pp. 110),

Are we promised any more than 'enough' understanding to facilitate salvation?
I think you may not expect more than you are willing to receive, Lance. Joseph Smith was not allowed to open the sealed portion of the golden plates, due to the pride and unbelief that was projected among the Gentile population. Even the parts he did translate are usually rejected by those who pretend to beteachers of the gospel. 


Does 'study' matter when it comes to Scripture? What's entailed in this 'study'?

Study is productive, assuming the Holy Spirit is taken as one's guide. Without it, studyresults in "ever learning, but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth."


What is the role of the Holy Spirit inapprehending the 'gospel', the act of exegesis, the act of exposition (either spoken or written), office/sign gifts?

I'd say it is critical. See the parable of the Ten Virgins. Those who took the Holy Spirit for their guides were prepared to enter into the covenant relationship as the "Bride" to the Bridegroom. Those who were not prepared by the Spirit were not spiritually prepared for the marriage. 


Is there even the possibility of the entire believing community, globally, coming to a unitary understanding of the entire corpus of Scripture?

Ideally, there is no reason why not. But practically speaking, I see little or no hope. Human pride is the reason it will never happen. Every man does his own thing, becomes egoistically married to his position, and that leads to strife, wherein the devil may then play his games amongst us. 


Do even the most mature (godly/holy/sanctified) believers possess only a partial/limited understanding of the Holy Scriptures?
 Ifwe put our foot downagainstnew truth when it is introduced, we can hardly claim to be Godly/Holy/Sanctified, despite your most carefully constructed facade of being otherwise.We can, of course, always resort to being sanctimonious, as did the Jews who prayed in public to be heard of men, etc. :) 

Do all believers err, at some points, in their understanding and therefore, teaching of the Holy Scriptures? Does this necessarily represent sin? When as a believer something of your teaching is errant relative to ontological truth and, you discover this to be so then, what steps ought you to take to rectify the matter vis a vis those who received this teaching?

I am not sure I understand what you are getting at, but I refer you to 76th section of the Doctrine and Covenants, verses 5-10--I hope this might be something of an answer for you:

5"For thus saith the Lord--I the Lord am merciful and gracious unto those who fear me, and delight to honor those who serve me in righteousness and in truth unto the end.
6 "Great shall be their reward, and eternal shall be their glory.
7 "And to them will I reveal all mysteries of my kingdom from days of old, and for ages to come, will I make known unto them the good pleasure of my will concerning all things pertaining to my kingdom.
8 "Yea, and even the wonders of eternity shall they know, and things to come will I show them, even the things of many generations.
9 "And their wisdom shall be great, and their understanding reach to heaven, and before them the wisdom of the wise shall perish, and the understanding of the prudent shall come to naught.
10 "For by my spirit will I enlighten them, and by my power will I make known unto them the secrets of my will--yea, even those things which eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor yet entered into the heart of man."

another example. Adults have preached to kids ad nauseam to avoid

facet of the AE situation of which I am most keen. One of my

in which he said AE screwed it up for us by taking the forbidden
fruit. He explained that had they not transgressed, we would all live
forever without experiencing death. Even though the kid was less than
religious later on in life, his comment always struck me as being
intriguing, and now you folks have sparked that fire again.
  
 I must be missing something about your (forgive mebut let me
say, Protestant) belief about the fall. If AE had not
transgressed, do you think none of their descendants would have
transgressed? In my experience, the best way to get a kid to do
something, is to forbid him from doing it! Don't you think that at
some point---probably much sooner than later---one of AE's
children would have fallen? Or do you believe that of the billions who
descended from AE, none would ever have transgressed? Just what
are the chances of that happening.zilch?!?!?!
  
 Sowhy do most Christians blame AE for the misery in the
world, when it was inevitable. From my perspectivenot only was it
expected, but it was planned. And...evidently you believe that as
well, since you believe Jesus was foreordained to be our Savior from
before the world was created.that it was planned? (Please let me
know if you do not believe such.) Yet you apparently don't believe

Actually, my youngest daughter (22 years old) has
told me why she has decided to NOT hoime school her children
.. and itis for much of the same
reason as seen in the opening line below. She told me
thateach of the eight friends she had at Fresno
Pacific U (who were all home schooled) hada very difficult time
getting along with those in the school or fitting in. 











My oldest daughter (38 years old) home schools
up to junior high age for the same reason.

While it may be noble to want to keep one's children pure and innocent, a loving parent who
overly protects their children will end up with kids acutely susceptible to the
ills of the world. 











NONSENSE





That is like saying a gardner who overprotects his PRIZE
flowers from weeds and pests will end up with flowers that are acutely
susceptible to it! 
Prize Flowers are to be handled with care preferably in a safe environment like
a greenhouse.





Allowing access to your children to those things that
would mean to do them harm is a foolish philosophy

The Next Generation of Leadership
The most important people are the ones that history
glosses over and such is the case with Home Schooling families. The presence of
kids who were Homeschooled in the 1980s and '90s is beginning to be felt more
and more in our cultural life. Dr. Brien Ray did a fascinating study on
homeschoolers and found that 73% of homeschoolers
18-24 vote compared to 29% of all people their age. The voting percentage goes
up to 95% for people above age 25 and they're three times more likely than
their fellow citizens to give political contributions. 74% of homeschoolers have taken
college courses, compared to only 46% of the general population. Ironically, homeschoolers who
were predicted to be social misfits, are more active and involved in their
community's politics than the general population.

Parents who chose to make extraordinary sacrifices to ensure
their children aren't led astray by the dominant culture are getting
extraordinary results as 94% of homeschoolers are holding to their parents religious
beliefs.

The Homeschooled kids of the '90s will be the leaders of the next century
because of hard work, sacrifice, and loving families. I was homeschooled, but
am hardly the best or brightest of the bunch. I never thought about it much as
a kid, but having been around both homeschooled and public school kids as an
adult, I'm struck by the general courtesy, kindness, and advance vocabulary of
homeschooled kids. They're a shining beacon of hope in this present darkness,
and a reminder of God's abiding faithfulness.





And the nay
sayers said O NO how are they going to learn to Socialize?

Not necessarily;
being over protective through fear is one thing. Teaching children
spiritual discernment in the fear of God is another because then the parent has
His power and watchful eye on their side.











I see it similar to communicable illnesses. You
could raise your kid in a bubble and he would live a germ/virus free
life. But once he enters the real world, he would be extremely vulnerable
to catching a slew of nasty bugs. Isn't it much better to allow your kid
be exposed to such hazards so that he can become inoculated against the ravages
in the strength of his youth than allow such illnesses to eventually attack
later in life when one is perhaps more vulnerable?











This is what the
wisdom of the world teaches. But we are fearfully and wonderfully made
and God has given us an immune system which should be able to throw off
anything that comes our way when not compromised by sin.











I see that somewhat as an analogy to the tree
knowledge of good and evil. I hope that makes a little sense,
Terry. (Though I'm sure some TTers will take exception.) FTRI
don't think that is the sole reason for the
tree though.
