1 | Aren't the elect commanded to repent? | Hebrews | Hank | 45211 | ||
Tim, down here in Arkansas where we put oil (pronounced all) in our cars, we hold on to the notion that all (also pronounced all) means the whole shooting match, whether it's describing people, places or things. So we don't have much difficulty understanding what all means by any means. When we read in the Bible the word _all_, we exegete it (there's a fancy word for an Arkie to utter) to mean everybody. It appears like to me that folks who claim that _all_ means something different from all, and withal teach that the Bible doesn't mean _all_ when it says so, have punched holes in simple language with an awl, and that's all wrong. I guess we just ain't reformed enough in our thinking down here to accomodate any meaning of _all_ but all, y'all. --Hank | ||||||

Greetings Hank! I wish I could phrase things as well as you my friend! :-) I have always been a firm believer that God meant what He said. Any view which constantly redefines the plain sense of words will not receive much credit from me. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
