At any rate, we also seemed to get off subject a bit. This was never meant to be a debate against brothers, but a study in how to actually use the Bible when defending it.
How does one use the Bible to defend the Bible. Are certain doctrines wrong?
Why is this done the way it is?
Where does one stand on this issue and is there doctrinal proof to back it up?
We must discern. This means letting God's Word do its work. If we are to discuss with anyone, outside, and particularly inside, the church, we must use the Word. As JK pointed out, Psalm 118:8 "It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man."

Excellent post. When I was growing up there was a man who quoted a scripture as a defense to a particular part of his life. When I read it for myself, he was quoting it wrong...lol. We must read and learn for ourselves.
