1 | what scroll was David speaking of? | Ps 40:7 | 108cious | 224773 | ||
Dear joshua These few verses are all I can find that might answer what I think you are asking, there isn't any one definitive book in the old testament that David was speaking about. The Messiah was prophesied throughout the old testament, so when David is speaking, he isn't speaking of himself, but for or (as) the Messiah in prophesy. Luk 24:25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: Luk 24:26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? Luk 24:27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. I hope I haven't misunderstood your question;-( If I haven't I hope this help you:-) 108cious |

Cannot everyone agree that 23 posts to this thread is enough? If not. Shouldn't we at least change the name of this thread, to Arguing amongst the forum members? 108cious |

3 | Arguing Among Apostles?? | Gal 2:11 | 108cious | 224636 | ||
Dear Inquisitor In your referencing Gal.2:11-16 for your question, you have stopped short of your answer. Remember there is always a context to the things written. We must all learn to interpret scripture in context. Whenever we come to a point in our reading where a question arises, we should keep reading. By doing this we will come to the conclusion of the thought. In this case if you keep reading to the end of the chapter, (17-21) you will find Paul teaches that we are dead to the law. That is what the whole confrontation was about. Peter was putting himself back under the law, because of his fear of what other Jewish believers might say about him. We then see Paul's thought carry over to Gal.3:1,2 where Paul says "who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth," "Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?" It looks like Paul is recounting this incident with Peter to the Galatians as an example to them that they are doing the same, or as an example that no one is immune to error. Paul is very concerned that the Gentile believers do not become Judaized (polluted). Paul reiterates these same beliefs in Phil.3:2,3. We then find later on in this book where Paul teaches this. Gal 6:1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. After reading that it doesn't appear that Paul was heeding his own teaching that day with Peter does it. Now in regards to your questions about why the Holy Spirit would allow this to take place, or what God is trying to proclaim. Scripture does not say in this case. But I hope my answer will give you some possible reasons why the confrontation took place, maybe then you will gain the light you are looking for. Hoping this might help you:-) 108cious |
