Part of it ...not all of it.


Can you expand on this?

Sure. When God, in His timing saw fit to begin somethimng fresh; the old being the RCC packaging and dispensing His word, He gave us Luther who brought the truth concerning justification by faith. He gave a few other truths but not like "justification by faith". That was sufficient truth to begin a new movement/denomiination. Then came the Anabaptist with their bit of truth concerning water baptism. Lets see, whose next that got persecuted by the previous version of the "truth"? Does it matter? We at this point in time can examine it all and by the Grace of God, coupled with the necessary hunger from the whole heart, can see as never before what God has prepared for them that love Him.

Other than the doctrine of Jesus Christ by revelation, no other has all the truth. Ergo, no denomination has all the truth.
Jesus was "full of Grace and Truth". No one since has been so filled...and not without reason....absence of hunger and consequently revelation.
Revelation of Jesus Christ is the key to our understanding and that not by books and programs of learning. Though necessary to a large degree, the deposit of the bible to our spiritual bank account is most profitable when the Holy Spirit seeks to have something to draw from, when our hunger for Christ brings us into union with Him; when we begin to see things from His perspective. "It is written" is given life. In this is to be found the speaking to our hearts concerning the things of the Father. In this is the still small voice discovered....and groomed.
I hope that is a help.
