Wise words from Dr. Cooper on a topic that needs to be kept simmering on our front burner as we read and study Scripture, both in our private study and our community study on this Forum. One wonders and feels constrained to ask himself why so many insist on approaching God's word as if He wrote it in some sort of code to which only a privileged few hold the key. No sooner do some pick up the Bible and read Genesis 1:1 until Presto! they see a place where they can insert a theory (Gap Theory) between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2. Then someone comes along and writes a whole book about the imaginary events that occurred between these two opening verses of Scripture. And with this sort of wild eisegesis, things get worse and worse, the theories wilder and wilder, all the way to the end of the Book of Revelation. How much easier the Bible is to understand simply by following what 2 Timothy 2:15 commands! --Hank | ||||||

Hank, Hank, Hank! :) Would you really have us to believe that understanding the Bible is a simple as reading it? ;-) The real trick to understanding the Bible is to read it upside down in a mirror. Take every 5th letter, write them down, and then use those letters to make words. God's Spirit will guide you. This how one discovers the DEEP things of God. In case anyone is getting ready to say 'Amen', I am just joking! :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Tim and Hank, Sooner or later I would be choked to death in laughters. You guys would be the suspects. :-) Shalom Azure Ps 119:124 Deal with Your servant according to Your lovingkindness And teach me Your statutes. Ps 119:125 I am Your servant; give me understanding, That I may know Your testimonies. Ps 119:129 Your testimonies are wonderful; Therefore my soul observes them. Ps 119:130 The unfolding of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple. |
