Why the apologetic submissions?

At CBC, we need to recognize that others hold different positions on different topics than we hold. Some of those different positions are perfectly legitimate interpretations, but we believe the Bible tends toward the interpretation to which we hold. Others of those different positions are completely illegitimate and must be refuted as heresy. Particularly as men, as leaders in our homes, we must learn to analyze particular topics and to discern between the topics with acceptable variations and the topics that are heretical. Furthermore, in Romans, God through Paul encourages each man to be convinced in his own mind, specifically regarding those topics with acceptable variations. Without consideration of those topics, we will never be convinced in our own minds, but will always be holding to a position based on second-hand conclusions (i.e., we learned it from someone else, but have never actually considered it for ourselves). The apologetic submissions, while potentially dangerous (please see the rules of engagement in order to avoid many of those dangers), are intended to encourage us to consider topics and to move toward being fully convinced in our own minds, to know why we believe what we believe, to be ready to give an answer for what we believe, and to consider other interpretations of topics with acceptable variations, so we do not make pariahs of those who conclude differently than we conclude.
