Just a quick reply.

First of all, I am glad that I misunderstood you.
However, I will say that I am not the only one who understood your meaning to be "the OT should be the final interpreter of the NT".
That of course wasn't a dirrect quote from you, it was just my understanding in a nut shell of what you were saying.

My understanding was not just based on the quote I mentioned in my post, but your entire post.
I only quoted that part because I thought it went right to the nitty gritty.

You said: "RTS, nor “true” Presbyterians teach a dispensational hermeneutic!!!"

I agree whole heartedly, but what puzzles me is why you believe people like Fred Malone teach a dispensational hermeneutic. Like I said he learned this hermeneutic principle at RTS.
I also know that the phrase by Augustine is quoted in that manner by many other people.
I would also agree with you that hermeneutics is not easy. In fact I doubt that Augustine used that phrase in that manner, he probably just used it as a principle in which to study hermeneutics.

I better stop for now.
