1 | Abstaining from things strangled, blood? | Acts 15:20 | skccab | 192198 | ||
Hi Doc, Maybe I shouldn't have grouped so big, the "church," that is. I was talking about the ones I had visited in my search for a home church. There was just so much gossiping and backstabbing being done right there in the sanctuary (and in front of a newbie to boot!!!) and that's when I decided there had to be something better. That's what I didn't want to be a part of. If I want to hear bad reports about folks I'll stay at work, not go to a church. Thanks for the rest of your note. I have read it and I will give it another read as well. I have Galatians bookmarked for a complete read-through over my weekend midnight shifts coming up :-) Also, I have no idea what nomanianism or antinomanianism is? So, if I'm one of those I don't know it. I don't believe that I am legalistic at all. Cheri |

Dear Cheri, Keep looking diligently looking! There is a church out there that needs you as much as you need it. Antinomy is a theological term made up of two Greek words: anti, meaning against, and nomos meaning law. It is the doctrinal position that denies that there is any objective law or standard of obedience in the New Testament age to which the believers are accountable. Its opposite would be legalism, which is an improper fixation on law or codes of conduct for a person to merit or gain salvation from God, blessings from God, or fellowship with God. In short, it is a belief that obedience to laws or rules is the primary principle of redemption or favor with God. As you work on Galatians, let us know what you are learning. In Him, Doc |

Hi Doc, Thank you for explaining those words. I'm still working within the framework of the 1st-2nd grade reader :-), and don't know alot of the theological terms. Cheri |
