To not do so is, by definition, dogmatism. It is also adherence to “the traditions of men”.

Nothing wrong with Biblical dogmatism. That would make it by definition not a tradition of man. CI is an effort to minimize the cost of sin and by extension minimize the Lord's sacrificial atonement for that sin. The Bible is plain as to the final place for those who have not believed. Same place as the Devil and his angels.

No sense in rehashing what I’ve argued on this subject for years. I’ve offered several links and a video.

But I do disagree with this comment strongly: “Nothing wrong with Biblical dogmatism.”

Dogmatism is the refusal to even look at evidence contrary to your own viewpoint. That is really not the high ground. When someone offers new teaching on old dogmas, searching the scripture is the high ground. This is why the Bereans were commended.
