A broken record keeps repeating the same thing over and over again RWB. So yes, I am a broken record. I keep repeating the truth over and over again. When one repeats the truth over and over again those words are not empty words (clanging cymbal). The truth is that your theory...

You (a man) follow doctrine that you (a man) taught yourself (a man) from Scripture. I'm sure you do listen to others and then YOU decide if they are right or wrong because YOU are better at studying and interpreting the bible than they are!!

You follow doctrine according to YOUR interpretation of God's word.....

And you rely on YOU for biblical truth........

Which means that YOU will always be the arbiter of Truth and YOU are never the fool.

No, we are not in a church service or setting. But you really don't care to hear my answer since you said "regardless of your answer". So why ask? I told you why I asked such a question. Because of your previous reference in post #270.

Nope, not my addition. It is a logical conclusion from YOUR WORDS. If you mean something different than my conclusion then please explain yourself. Patient Mary

Ok PinSeeker....So we clearly have a disagreement between us and Scripture says we are to take our differences to The Church so it can decide. Which church would you like to go to so that we can settle this difference? Yours or mine?

Who has authority over you?

The men of The Church.

Help me out here RWB. The definition of doctrine is 'a principle or position or the body of principles in a branch of knowledge or system of belief; Dogma; Church Doctrine So either you follow the doctrine of other men OR you create your own doctrine. I know you don't think yourself a fool so...

You didn't say I was preaching or teaching (as a woman) but you were referring to post #270 where you said that women are not to preach or teach men in a worship/church setting. Were you not? Stop playing games with me......

Nope, not putting words in your mouth PinSeeker. You said each of them (the reformers) made great contributions to bringing Christians back to the teaching of the Apostles. That means that they, the Reformers, threw out some Church teachings AND came up with their own teachings/doctrines that...

So you do have a place/persons to go to so that you can fulfil Matthew 18:17! Soooooo The Church IS a place consisting of people you call mentors!!! Do your mentors fulfill what Scripture calls elders that we are to obey? Or are your elders a different group of men? Curious mary

I am not preaching or teaching. I am only repeating...........

PinSeeker......what PLACE is that which we go to so that we can fulfil Matthew 18:17?

Thanks for that interpretation of Scripture RWB. Is that your interpretation or did another man teach you that? It seems that @PinSeeker agrees with you so I look forward to both of your response to my further inquiries. You (RWB) asked me how He could be talking about the Church that exists...

And you think He was talking about ____________________.

Hey EG.......It is not doctrine that says that we are to listen to our men (men of The Church). It is Scripture that says that. Would you like to discuss and do some bible study with me? Also, why is ok for you to adhere to your men's interpretation of Scripture but it is not ok for me to...

Hello PinSeeker, Huh???? Each Reformer made great contributions to bringing Christianity closer to the teachings of the Apostles by throwing out Catholic doctrine and making their own doctrine?? :contemplate: Some Reformers kept Church doctrine XYZ as doctrine for their new denomination and...
