Shalom Steve, It looks like we're going to have to agree to disagree. I've given a reasonable answer to the question that was originally posed - "How would the disciples KNOW who/what house would be worthy?" You, as well, have given a reasonable argument to possibly shoot my answer down - but you haven't yet given an answer to the original question. What would be the criteria of a household worthy to host them and their message, what were they to look for, inquire about? :-) Cheri |

Dear Sister Cheri, My objective was not to "shoot" your answer down as you say but rather to discuss His word and seek His truth for the benefit of you, me, anyone else reading along and most of all to His glory! If I have come across as anything else I apologize! Also, sorry if I have not been able to answer the original question to your satisfaction. For me it seems clear in the text itself hence my first response to the original question. What more could I say to explain it then what is actually written in scripture? Anyway, as most of us so feebly try to expound on scripture and end up mudding the waters I guess that is what I have done for you. Again, not my intent! However, I have answered the original question and to you have attempted to point out the answer in the actual text (in context) of the passage. If you are unable to see that you have brought in the law and set mankind's obedience to that law as the standard of a house worthy of Christ then I don't know what else to say. I am not the one to help you see it but I tried :-) God bless, Steve |

Dear Steve, I didn't mean to imply anything bad when I said "shoot down" the need for apology belongs entirely with me!! Very poor choice of wording on my part. I have never seen your posts as anything other than kind, gentle and full of graciousness. What I was stating was that someone observing the commandments of God would be the people most likely to welcome and house strangers traveling through the area for this had been commanded of them in Deut. 10:18-19. Shalom Cheri |
