The (potential) Treachery of Doctrine > My way, or the highway >​

Follow-up to the topic: The potential conceit of doctrinal individuality

Got it all figured out?

- You read the Bible cover-to-cover. Good for you. Kudos.
- You read up on doctrine and apologetics. Good.
- You arrived at a position on nearly any biblical topic, or doctrine. Check.
- Now you are ready to kick some butt. Say what?

What's wrong with this picture?
Is this why we read the Bible and study?
Do we measure maturity by personal KNOWLEDGE, or by personal TRANSFORMATION ?

You realise that a "Know it all person," only knows what he knows up to and including that point in time and nothing more. Whether or not what we know transforms us is difficult for others to determine and in any case is not within their providence for them to determine. That determination is for another to come to the right conclusion as to whether or not our "knowledge base" deceives us.
