Gal.1:6-9, there are consequences

8But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed 9As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received, let him be accursed.

“But OT came from God”

Col.3:17, in the Name

‘“In the name’ means, accordingly, ‘in vital relation with him,’ that is, in harmony with his revealed will, in subjection to his authority, in dependence on his power”

2 Jn.9, out of bounds

Anyone who “progresses” beyond teaching of Christ walks w/o God

I. Attitude:How to regard what God says

II. Bible:How does it teach us

The Bible teaches the same way any document teaches

“Thus it is argued that the ancient maxim to be applied is that the expression of one thing is the exclusion of another” – Contracts: Transactions And Litigation

A recipe does not have to list ingredients that should not be used

Silence does not give consent

“It is impossible to construe the deed of 1899 from the Pocono Spring Water Ice Co. to Frank C. Miller as conveying…any privi-lege of bathing. It is clear and unambig-uous. It gives Frank C. Miller the exclusive right to fish and boat; the expression of one thing is the exclusion of another. No bathing rights are mentioned. This omission may have been the result of oversight, or it may have been deliberate, but in either event, the result is the same”
