1 | Should Women Wear Hats? | 1 Cor 11:4 | Val | 203952 | ||
So true Doc, can you imagine why so many pastors give up the ministry. This is another example of people putting up stumbling blocks where there is none. Is it pride? What is that passage - a little knowledge puffs up? | ||||||
2 | Should Women Wear Hats? | 1 Cor 11:4 | DocTrinsograce | 203955 | ||
Hi, Val... I don't think it is pride, per se -- although that's a component. I think it is simply how our deceitful hearts operate (Matthew 15:16-20). Ultimately we want to be our own god. Alternatively, we want to serve God in our own way ("same difference" as the kids used to say). Consequently, when someone comes along focusing on the external, all of us are happy to go along with it, since it relieves us of the responsibility of dealing with that nasty, old submission issue. So, given that I have this tendency just as much as anyone else, I have to wonder: What Scriptures am I treating this way so that I don't have to face my own heart's corrupt, rebellious nature? I do know this much: I know its bad... but I'd bet that the actual number is a lot worse than I imagine! In Him, Doc |

Amen Brother! Very well said, Doc. (Jer 17:9) our own hearts are indeed our worst enemies! Never mind the devil beguiling us, we do a pretty good job on our own. God bless John |
