Clair, Good Question. Sorry for the confusion.
Explicit Authorization (EA) - The bible must specifically allow or command an action for it to be within God's will. i.e. - the bible does not specifically authorize mission societies, therefore they are prohibited.
Explicit Prohibition (EP) - What the bible does not specifically prohibit by command can be explored. i.e. - the bible does not specifically (by command) prohibit mission societies, therefore the option can be explored.
I hope this helps. I am sure someone with more education and better training would have more suitable and standard terminology.
Sincerely,
Phil |
