But What Does the Bible Say? Rk Bassett

The intent of this book is to hold the Bible up as the absolute authority on all theology on selected topics that are presented differently by denominational interpretations that may be based on tradition or opinions of human writers who have other views. Specific Scripture is shown that is relative to each topic being addressed in that chapter. Raised in a Christian home, our family of 9 (I am the oldest of 3 brothers and 3 sisters) were in church whenever the doors were open. It was an independent Bible church with a basic Baptist theology except that it was taught that legal church membership was a step to far into legalism. During an enlistment in the U. S. Air Force, I became exposed to a denomination that didn't accept Christmas or water baptism, teaching the latter to have been a part of the Law of Moses and therefore a sin for the church of today. During my life I have studied the Word to try to understand why we have doctrinal differences on this and other topics. This book is the product of these studies although I held back on going public with my views for fear that I may lead other Christians astray. Lately, however, I have become convicted that keeping quiet may, in fact, be contrary to God's will for my life.
