What Is The Difference Between Bible Doctrine And Church Doctrine? by FreedomfromtheT: 7:11pm On Dec 31, 2021
We know that Bible doctrine refers to teachings contained in the Bible or Scriptures for Christians to follow. Sometimes, we here of soso church's doctrine. Is it that some denominations have their separate doctrines from that of the Bible or that others dropped or stopped emphasizing certain Bible doctrines while a few continue teaching and practicing such and as a result people label such that particular Church's doctrine? What is the difference between Church tradition and Church doctrine? Mature response needed.

Bible doctrine is general doctrine most church follow and is usually rooted in the Bible.. though it can be slightly different because of interpretation. But they are often similar
E.g going out to preach the gospel
Prayer and fasting period
Taking the flesh and blood of Jesus
Baptism by immersion or sprinkling



Church doctrines are the rules and regulation that a church has to formulate based on the happening and experiences around them.
They may not be written in the Bible. But are kinda guided by the Bible in a way..

E.g pregnancy test before marriage on Friday’s night before the Saturday wedding.
It’s not written in the Bible to do pregnancy test.. however, the Bible said keep the marriage bed undefiled... so the church is just trying to play their part order and prevent people from just marrying because of accidental pregnancy..

Another example of church doctrine no indecent dressing... some church believe people can come as they are and the word they hear will change them...

Some church like deeper life and apostolic will not let you in if you skirt is too short or your cleavage is all over the place...

as for bible doctrine you well understand it knowing it as teachings(and i add[and rules]) writing in the bible for christians to follow.

so let me go directly to church doctrine: church doctrine is a sect of additional rules(un_recorded in the bible) adopted by a church or denomination for its members to follow.

church doctrines doesn't mainly mean going outside the bible, it is basically according to individuals personal or denominational understanding on certain biblical teachings(mostly from the epistles).

christians over to u
Happy New year sir. Please I want to bring to your notice that you and I were born as sinners. We all inherited the adamic sinful nature. It is not your fault that you were born a sinner but it is your fault if you remain and die a sinner the consequence of which is eternal damnation. Thank God you will not die a sinner because the Saviour paid the price for your sin. He is your Substitute and Sinbearer. "He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon Him and with His stripes, we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray, we have turned everyone to his own way and the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all" (Isaiah 53:5,6). "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men (humans), whereby we must be saved" (Acts 4:12). Repent and accept Jesus Christ today as your Lord and personal Saviour and you will be saved. This message is for every sinner. God loves you. Accept His love today.

Bible doctrine is teaching found in the Bible that can be established from different Bible witnesses. Church doctrine and tradition is practice that a church is used to, usually a result of personal style. Like there's different types of administration and leadership. We all have our preferences, styles of music, dress preferences, colour choice, teaching patterns, programme schedules etc.

Doctrines belonging to SECTS are based on the understanding of their (imperfect) human founders. Note that the one who founded such a group is not Jesus himself but some imperfect human so no matter how sincere or kindhearted such an imperfect person could be he can't fully grasp everything in God's word {1Corinthians 13:9-10} unlike Jesus who is the only begotten son of God all past servants of God had partial understanding of God's word.
WHY?
Because the true God is the GREATEST TEACHER in the whole universe {John 8:28} He knows the level of what each generation of mankind knows {Psalms 103:14} so it's according to our level of perception that God dishes out useful information gradually that's why you can't compare what each generation of God's servants know as our knowledge of God is progressive! Proverbs 4:18
From God's viewpoint mankind is like one man that's growing so just as we teach our own children gradually the same way God is dealing with imperfect humans.

So where most people failed to distinguish between the doctrines of men from that which comes from God's word is that they give the glory that belongs to God to the founders of their SECTS, that's why they keep on creating more and more SECTS in the name of DENOMINATIONS.

How can we know the doctrine that is from the Bible (God's word)?

Well it's by observing the group holding on to such doctrine, if what the group believe some few decades ago all remain the same then know that it's not from the word of God where understanding is progressive. They have given the glory that belongs to God to their imperfect human founders.

That's why you will hear them talk of church doctrines arguing, abusing, insulting, cursing and even KILLING one another thinking they are fighting for God!

May you have PEACE! undecided

1. All, not some, of your denominations have doctrines and traditions that contradict the Truth of God, the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ - they are antiChrist- and hence are not of God. undecided

Jesus Christ declared such doctrines and traditions of men(and their churches) lies, an abomination, intended to decieve people away from following the Truth of God as taught by Jesus Christ, God's very own Law and Covenant with individuals. undecided

2. Your church doctrines include even those sermons you hear told you by your mogs which mention Jesus Christ but aren't really grounded in His teachings and commandments to you. undecided

Your church traditions are those rules and commandments you cling to and practice in God's name that have nothing to do with that which Jesus Christ has infact asked or commanded of you. undecided

How does "keep the marriage bed undefiled" relate to what happens before marriage?
