experience and truth

Anna and I were talking this morning about the eastern mind and how it goes toward experience, we hypothesized that this is why Korean believers are such great prayers...

while western believers are into truth, into knowledge... I said that I thought this knowledge and truth thing, while biblical is probably a side effect of the rise of modern thinking...

and that the emerging generations are moving away from that... then we said that there must be a balance... we must know what is Right to make sure our experience is measuring up to biblical standards...

to not have experience with Him and the body for the sake of truth is just as wrong as pushing away an adherence to absolute truth for the sake of experience in an attempt at being relevant...

what think ye?
