There's No Need For Commentary

Grace, mercy, and truth will be with you from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. 2 John 3 (NKJV)

In the precious and beautiful name of Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings.

While listening to the local “Christian” radio station I heard, “Imagine being a pastor, and you have no commentary.”  The speaker on the radio is referring to the commentary that people have added to the pages in the [Bible] that are supposed to better explain God’s word.  The speaker mentioned a specific pastor, who had [only] a single copy of the [Bible] to draw from, and it didn’t contain commentary.  The story the speaker connected to this particular pastor is believable, believing there’s a disadvantage to not having “commentary” to draw from, is not. 

I’d say that this particular pastor has the advantage of having the right tool, a [Bible] without human commentary.  We should be eager to trust the [Bible] to be more than sufficient enough as is.

“Imagine being a pastor,” or anyone else for that matter, when the Anthanasian Creed was birthed in 325-AD.  Knowing God’s plan of salvation, would you be willing to accept this new Anthanasian Creed as the only way to salvation, which is [exactly] what it claims?  Why should I set aside what God has laid out for me and accept this false “method of salvation” that surfaced well after the last entry of the New Testament? 

The doctrine of the trinity, which is to say the Anthanasian Creed, is man’s addition onto that which Jesus accomplished in the first century.  The truth about Jesus is available for all to see in the [Bible], there’s no need for commentary.

God bless.

In His Care… Jim
