1 | can i pay my tithes to my mother? | 2 Cor 9:7 | Morant61 | 109186 | ||
Greetings Paraclete! Your post was wrong on so many levels, it is difficult to decide where to start! :-) 1) Concerning Prayon! If I had to choose between you and Prayon to pray for me, I would choose Prayon anytime! Prayon is a dear sister in Christ and has demonstrated over time that she has both an excellent understanding of Scripture and a healthy relationship with Christ. Her answer was both Biblical and sound. While God certainly wants us to helps others, this does not take the place of our tithe. So, I would recommend that you not attack her simply because you don't agree with her. 2) Condemnation: Prayon did not condemn anyone in her post. But, you post is filled with condemnation of those who disagree with you. 3) Bible-bumping! I can't speak for anyone else, but I have never once bumped my Bible! :-) I assume you meant to type 'bible-thumping'. I have never really 'thumped' it either. But, I do believe what it says. To take something 'literally' is to simply take it in the way in which it was intended by the author. If a passage is poetry, one should read it as poetry. If a passage is a parable, one should read it as a parable. If a passage is an historical narrative, one should read it as an historical narrative. So, yes, the Bible can be both literal and symbolic. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
