1 | Love God, His word, any difference? | Ps 95:10 | DocTrinsograce | 153543 | ||
Dear Dr. Aixen, The Scripture clearly states that the righteous love the Word of the Lord. Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. (Psalms 1:1-2) Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them. (Psalms 119:165 KJV) But whoever keeps His Word, truly in this one the love of God has been perfected. By this we know that we are in Him. (1 John 2:5 LITV) Alternatively, the World hates the Word of God: To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: behold, the word of the LORD is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it. (Jeremiah 6:10) And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. (1 John 2:3-5) In Him, Doc |

Hi Doc, Your reference quote of 1 John 2:5 LITV to my mind shows that they do not distinguish between the law (the commandments of verse 4) and the Word. I see the same lack of identification in your saying that the "righteous love the Word of the Lord" and then quote Psalms 1:2 as if it is saying the same thing when actually it is saying that "his delight is in the law of the Lord." As regards Jeremiah 6:10, I would look forward to hearing comments from you on a question I will write for that verse. Who is speaking in Jeremiah 6, especially Jeremiah 6:11? From the heart, Ray |

3 | Love God, His word, any difference? | Ps 95:10 | DocTrinsograce | 153557 | ||
Dear Ray, There are many words used in Scripture for the Word of God. Psalm 119 alone mentions a number of them. I believe there are seven distinct ways... Off the top of my head they include law, law and prophets, word, statutes, commandments, testimony, scriptures... there might be more, but I'm getting old. :-) But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. (Matthew 4:4) In Him, Doc |

4 | Love God, His word, any difference? | Ps 95:10 | Ray | 153566 | ||
Hi Doc, I am having a tough time getting you to distinguish for instance your seven distinct ways and the Way; distinguishing between the words that proceedeth from the mouth of God and the Word that proceedeth forth from God. I think that I will simply decide that you choose to capitalize the Word of God, thus showing your respect for it. I'll leave it at that. 1) Your Matthew 4:4 reference is a passage that has especially interested me through the years. Satan is saying "If You are..." in verses 3 and 6. What do you think? Is Satan asking Jesus to make these stones [I think of the commandments written on stones] Bread? Connecting the verse with 1 Peter 2:4, do we come to Him as to a living Stone? What do you think? Is Jesus being asked to make these stones loaves for Him to eat; thus making the commandments His bread? What do you think? Does Jesus apply the word of God quoted from Deuteronomy 8:3 to His own life on earth; thus saying "Even I as a Man do not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds from the mouth of God."??? 2) What are your thoughts about 1 Peter 1:25? "But the word of the Lord abides forever." And this is the word which was preached to you." From the heart, Ray |
