Are what you saying that all the theologians from Paul to Augustine to Luther and Calvin were wrong in studying Gods Word and that it was a waste of time?
Worse than a waste of time as far as I'm concerned. It counterfeited the simple message Jesus brought to the world. Not one single bit of "theology" ever helped a single man choose right from wrong. Only the Spirit can do that. And Theology never brought a single soul to conviction. Only the Spirit can do that. "Theology" is only useful to reprove others and exhibit brainpower.
Agreed. Wholeheartedly. He told us what it meant to be His follower...the very essence of what it was to be His follower was given to us by Him in His simple teachings. And now, 33,000 different Christian denominations later...all due to differences in 'theology'...His simple message has been distorted and convoluted by many who profess to be 'Christians'.
