    So no semper reformanda??? All the treasures of Scripture have been mined? There is nothing new to discover? We've reached the epitome of knowledge of God's Word??? What's the point in PhD's then, if there is nothing new to contribute to the scholarly community????

    I wish you would have told me this before I wrote my 160 page thesis and article that I got published about Revelation 3:14-22. That would have saved me a lot of time to realize that I didn't really make any new contribution to the understanding of Revelation but just repeated something old under the sun.

    Geese. This is quite narrow-minded thinking.

    For the rest of us who don't have it all figured out and haven't seen everything new under the sun, let's keep reading!!!!

    I've been thinking about this statement. What essentials of the faith can a Christian remain ignorant of and still be a Christian?

    Does this state of ignorance in what is essential to our faith really apply to "most" Christians? (I can not think of one believer who does not know the Object of his faith). And if these essentials can be absent yet salvation be of that faith, can they really be essential?
