1 | follow up to 1 corinth 15 question | 1 Cor 15:52 | justme | 216500 | ||
Val: Just as a point on your response. If someone sent me a note with "Greetings man" it might considered to be a put down on me being a man. Val, the point you make about the "day" really is more solidly in favor of meaning a single day. This may be debatable, but the most literal understanding is a one day event. In all honesty as I read your note with "Greetings man" for me and perhaps other men it sure came out like "man bashing" to me. Perhaps that's not what you ment? We all need to be reminded to consider how our words on the screen might be read in a way we did not intend. The world judges us by how we treat each other, and the love and respect we show each other. The dialogue on the day of the Lord is open to different interpretations and dialogue, but not to insist it is only to be viewed as my way only. Blessings. justme |

2 | follow up to 1 corinth 15 question | 1 Cor 15:52 | Val | 216563 | ||
Justme, I was posting from my mobile phone. I was on vacation. I typed Mak. Short for the whole name. It came out man. The letters on the phone are small and it is a touch screen. I have had it about a month and still getting used to it. It was to say Greetings Mak. Context is key in interpretation of biblical passages. Definiations are one part of observation. Also asking the five w's and an h questions. Observation of the text is vital. Using the passage that was first quoted is what I was referring to in context if you read my response. The entire book is only a few chapters long. It is unwise for me to take a single word or a single verse and give a difficult subject as day of the Lord an interrpretation. The verses referred to to explain ones view must be looked at in their context in light of the historical background and the author's purpose for writing the entire book then look at the book in context of the entire sixty six books. Justme, are you the moderator now? |

Val: I thought you response was kind, until your last line. I find it a sad note, and it says a lot about the love, kindness, and respect you show to me. Your rudeness is forgiven and I shall avoid communicating with you. Hopefully that will bring some peace. justme |
