@PostinusGul Agar terhindar dari "strawman", alangkah baiknya bisa dibaca aja langsung dalam sistematika teologi mereka dalam menjelaskan kriteria kanon, khususnya dalam sudut pandang reformed. Jujur saya sudah capek untuk menjawab dan menjelaskannya lagi Romo.🙏

[Marco @marc0berth]

@PostinusGul Romo, saya umat awam reformed, sekelas teolog reformed skolastik (Turretin, Owen, Rutherford, Voetius, Mastricht, dll.) juga akan sepakat dengan apa yang Romo sampaikan mengenai permasalahan barusan, terkait tidak menjadikan "kutipan langsung dari PB" sebagai kriteria kanon.

[Marco @marc0berth]

@PostinusGul Sedangkan apa yang nampak dari seseorang yang Romo quote di sini kayaknya sedang membahas dalam dimensi "septuaginta vs ibrani sebagai daftar kanon yang terdiri dari kitab-kitab apa saja"(canonicity).

@PostinusGul Padahal di kanon ibrani tidak ada deuterokanonika, Yesus dan para rasul sering mengutip perjanjian lama dan tak ada satupun dari deuterokanonika mereka kutip

[Marco @marc0berth]

@PostinusGul Kembali lagi, Romo, buku/penelitian yang Romo maksud itu dimensinya lagi membahas "septuaginta sebagai teks/bahasa"(textual criticism).

[Marco @marc0berth]

@PostinusGul Dari membaca keseluruhan narasi yang Romo bangun melalui cara demikian, nampaknya lebih tepat dan baik dialog diselesaikan saja sampai di sini. Takutnya akan melebar ke mana-mana tanpa menyentuh topik substantif pembahasan dan kontraproduktif.

[Marco @marc0berth]

@PostinusGul Saya sudah baca semua isi narasi tulisan Romo, dari menggunakan terminologi "Sola Scriptura", hingga ke yang lebih unik lagi menyinggung "konsili Yamnia-Disambung ke rabi-rabi Yahudi" (bagian ini saya geleng-geleng sambil tersenyum bacanya).

“[Our good works] please Him, as mentioned in Hebrews 13, ‘He is well pleased.’ Just as Leah, though blear-eyed, believed her husband would love her when she bore children (Genesis 29:32), so too, our faith may say, ‘Now God will love me’ when it abounds in the fruits of righteousness.”

—Anthony Burgess, Vindiciae Legis, Lect. IV

[Berith Press @BerithPress]

Many of us operate under a Hegelian presupposition that the unfolding time brings us closer and closer to truth and goodness through institutions, and religion (of which Christianity is a species) is one of those institutions.

The word "progress" has now acquired to itself both the passing of time, and the virtue of goodness.

When "semper reformanda" is seen through this lens, categories are confused, and the truth is harmed.

It is not that new developments are necessarily always bad. It is just that their newness is not in itself a virtue, and thus by itself, they cannot prove anything.

“As for the Gentiles, they, at least, were and are called indirectly, i.e., through the Works of Creation and Providence, and the fame of the true Church, which Call Prevenient Grace accompanies. … This indeed does not suffice immediately for Salvation; It suffices, however, for acknowledging God the Creator of Heaven and Earth as One, Eternal, Wise, Powerful, Good, and Just, and for worshiping and glorifying him, and for seeking the true God. Because they neglect to do this, and refer all their thoughts rather to the immortality of their own Name, to Avarice, and to fulfilling foul Pleasures, likewise to forbidden Divinations, than to the Glory of God, and thus they hold back the Truth, and that Knowledge of God, in a lie and in impiety, it thence comes to pass that they are inexcusable, Ps. 191 ff; Acts 17:24, 27; Rom. 1:18, 19 ff.”

@PostinusGul Ketika menerjemahkan Alkitab, Luther tidak hanya menggunakan sumber dari teks masoretik saja, tetapi juga septuaginta dan vulgata. Kalau pertanyaannya menjadi kitab-kitab apa saja yang dimaksud? Nah ini baru sama kayak kitab-kitab yang ada di teks masoretik (tolong dibedakan).

@PostinusGul Izin kirim cuplikan penjelasan salah satu topik spesifik (cuma cukup 4 foto) dalam buku tersebut, walaupun saya menyarankan agar isi buku tersebut tetap dibaca secara keseluruhan dan komprehensif.
