Do you think correcting false statements about your views is creating strife?


Absolutely not. But then, it begs the question: How do we know they are false?

My post was regarding what the bible says about proclaiming to follow a particular man’s teaching to the point of labelling your beliefs after him. I agree with much of the teaching of C. S. Lewis, but would never consider calling myself a “Lewisian”. And I would never call myself a Baptist or Calvinist or Catholic. At the moment I am a Christian that attends a Baptist church. I used to attend AG and even foursquare. But I identify myself as a Christian.

Well, if they are your views, then you are the authority on what those views are and your judgement alone is sufficient to say someone is speaking falsely of them.

“My post was regarding what the bible says about proclaiming to follow a particular man’s teaching to the point of labelling your beliefs after him.”

Ah, I didn’t see that was what you were getting at.
