When you study theology, it is easy to come from a vantage point that creates a "us versus them" mentality. Not everyone has searched deeply into what you are searching into, but that does not make them any less. As you can see in theology, there are many different views on doctrine and even the reformers did not all agree together on every aspect, but humility is needed to pray and reflect and use our minds for real transformation to be more like Jesus. The Holy Spirit is always at work in revealing the word to His people. Make your mark in humility and let others search for themselves as well. God is convincing enough. Doctrine is there to help us grow and understand. Just like science helps us to understand functional purposes of organisms to the best of our knowledge. Like Harris brought out, we need a humble orthodoxy. Take care bro, keep reconciliation alive! I’m glad you’re taking a humble approach to this my friend.
