1 | Why Matthew is "introduced" late... | Luke 1:3 | Ray | 116334 | ||
Hi Rowdy, I appreciate and agree with all that you say here. Upon examination, to my mind I would only change the capitalization of the Word. I honor the Scriptures and would capitalize the word "Word" if it did not confuse who or what we speak. That is why I speak of the word of God, the Scriptures. You spoke of His Word being protected. God Himself does not need protection but the Scriptures do indeed need to be upheld and protected. We definitely do have the whole *word of God. I say all that in the spirit that Luke was expressing; in the desire for exactness and accuracy. Don't feel that I am finding fault here, and I do not expect everyone to talk about the word of God. But we have to be aware of the difference between the word of God and the Word. From the heart, Ray |

I'm not really clear on this topic of the word vs. the Word. Could you define each one for me? Thanks and God bless. | ||||||
3 | Please clarify: Word vs. word | Luke 1:3 | Ray | 116364 | ||
Hi Rowdy, I have said that we need to distinguish between the word of God and the Word. The Bible, the Scriptures, are often referred to as The Word. However, we know that John tells us that the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. The Bible is not flesh, it is papyrus or paper. The Word, Jesus (who is God), became flesh. So there is the confusion of the Word, the Bible, and the Word, that is, Jesus. For me, there is less confusion when we speak of the word of God, for then we know that we are speaking about the Bible. When we speak of the Word of God, we should know that we are speaking of Jesus, for that is His name. Revelation 19:13, "And He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood; and His name is called The Word of God." From the heart, Ray |
