Hello all. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I was just wondering if I could get some help on a topic. I had sent my Pastor an e-mail concerning his sermon last Sunday and in it he shared some of his thoughts. There is something that I wish to further explore so I would like to bring it to you all.

Quote
My Pastor stated:
Truth is NOT subjectively defined. It is objectively revealed. However, truth IS subjectively experienced by the believer through faith.

Quote
and he also says:
Even J.I Packer agrees with the conception of the Christian life as a three-legged stool, each of the legs being doctrine, experience, and practice. Take one away and that stool does not stand. We need to know truth, do truth, and experience truth.

Now I'm not trying to find error here, I'm just having to admit that I'm not very clear here on "subjective experience."

So I am going to try to read about it more this morning and If anyone would like to contribute their thoughts on this subject, It would be most welcome. Thank you and have a blessed day!

Y.B.I.C,

Dave. ><>


Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. - Galatians 2:16
