No. Scripture does need to be interpreted. And that's always the sticking point. Unfortunately, these "arguments" will never cease till the Lord returns. | ||||||

I agree the Scripture does need to be interpreted. But, when one interprets, there are sound principles of interpretation that one should follow. Back before 1900 A.D. a group of men gathered around a kitchen table armed only with the King James Version of the Bible and an English dictionary. They took the words of the Bible in an overly literal sense and then gave symbolic meaning to what THEY felt was symbolic. They pretended there was no such thing as 1900 years of the historic Christian faith which could shed some light on the Bible. The result? The Watchtower Society, better known as the Jehovah's Witnesses. Bible interpretation is not a word game for amateurs. Notice that one of the gifts of the Spirit to the church is teachers. | ||||||

Greetings, bjanko! You made my day. Your reply, "I agree with you 100 percent," is not what I was expecting. I don't know what I was expecting, but it wasn't your 100 percent agreement. Thank you for the many, many stimulating questions, answers and notes you have submitted to this website. Sincerely, JVH0212 | ||||||
