1 | Are we ever "worthy" of God's love? | John 3:16 | John Reformed | 52225 | ||
Hello Tim, The indefinite pronoun "any" is used because Peter is addressing the return of Christ which will not occur until the last of the elect are brought into the kingdom. His audience is identified in verses 1-3. Peter is adressing a specific group and not all of mankind! Example: Dear members of the Biblestudyforum, I invite you to spend a week with me in sunny Arizona. You are all welcome but leave your snowsuits at home because I do not want any to pass out from the 108 degee temperature. John |

2 | Are we ever "worthy" of God's love? | John 3:16 | Hank | 52252 | ||
Man, I don't remember what the issue is exactly [something about 'all' was it?], but sign me up for that week in Arizona, John. Will you be furnishing first-class airline tickets too?...... By the way, we don't use 'all' much here in Arkansas; that's only half a word. We say you all, and when we do we mean you ALL. We hardly ever put the word 'elect' after it; sounds like a funny way to talk, putting elect after you all. Oh well, we don't everything here in the Arkansas hills. Just most of it! --Hank | ||||||
3 | Are we ever "worthy" of God's love? | John 3:16 | John Reformed | 52255 | ||
Dear Hank, I don't know how I ever got angry at a guy like you! Your welcome to come to my house any time you want. I'll even cook a possum so that you feel right at home. Bubba John |
