I know what you mean by your question, Ray, but I prefer not to play the lower case-upper case game. Peace, |

Hi Lionstrong, You play the "game" more than you think, perhaps. You have in this thread spoken of the word, the Holy Bible in order to diferentiate between the word and the Word. The people who have responded to your thread have been talking of the "word of God", thus showing that they understand the difference between the word and the Word as well. 1) In the paragraph of yours that I quoted, you made sure to capitalize "Son", using your shift key and playing the game. I think you found it important to point out the knowledge of the Son as well as the word, the Scriptures. I believe that this knowledge of the Son is important to you and us, (This One who is not the son of God, but the Son of God, not a son of man but the Son of Man, not a god but God Himself). 2) In a post of yours on a thread about receiving the Holy Spirit, you found it important to stress that the Holy Spirit was a person [sic] and not a thing. You were looking at Titus 3:6 and Ephesians 1:14 and saying that the Holy Spirit was a "who" rather than a "which". That is playing the lower-case-upper case game; and we all should be players in it. From the heart, Ray |

3 | Love God, His word, any difference? | Ps 95:10 | kalos | 153332 | ||
WHY should we all be players in the upper-case/lower-case game? Moses wasn't. David wasn't. Isaiah wasn't. Daniel wasn't. Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Peter and Paul weren't. So WHY should we be? | ||||||

Hi Kalos, What makes you think that the men of faith in the past were not players in the upper-case/lower-case game? 1) Do you think that Enoch walked with god three hundred years after he became the father of Methuselah? Of course not. Genesis 5:22 2) Do you think that Noah did according to all that a man had commanded him? Of course not. Genesis 7:5. 3) Do you think that Abraham believed in the lord; and he reckoned it to him as righteousness? Of course not. Genesis 15:6. Do you think that Abraham was told by God about the promise, that "he who is coming will come, and will not delay. But my righteous one shall live by faith"? No, but surely the Messiah is coming and His righteous one shall live by faith. Hebrews 10:37. 4) Do you think that Moses thought that he had been given the Law of the one true god? Of course not. I'm pretty tired tonight so I have to stop there. I hope that helps to show where I am coming from. From the heart, Ray |
