A 3D perspective

I remember my days at Canadian Theological Seminary when I was introduced to this marvelous concept by our Systematic Theology instructor. After thinking about it, and having studied great minds like Blaise Pascal and Lancelot Hogben, I saw this idea of Wesley not in two dimensions but three. When you consider Scripture as the rule that rules, over the other three, the rule that is ruled, you get a tetrahedron rather than a mere quadrilateral. All I need here is a way to post it. Any tips? R3hall 20:52, 1 October 2007 (UTC)R3hall[reply]

What the quadrilateral lacks.

The quadrilateral is a good "system" for working through your own faith and theology. However, for me there are two parts missing. Yes scripture is primary, for that is where we begin our journey with God. From scripture we work through building our own faith understanding by her "level") with scripture.....and on and on in our journey toward God and ultimately true understanding. I think Wesley would call it moving on to perfection. But I guess we never quite get there! Least I have not.....yet! guatdoc (talk) 13:27, 26 August 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Guatdoc (talkcontribs) 12:57, 26 August 2008 (UTC) I like chicken!![reply]

Additional reference in description

The second paragraph of the description has no reference. I would suggest [1]

I am a student researcher for Dr. Thorsen, so do not want to add it to the document myself.
