Bible Note: Dear Lionstrong, Perhaps knowing the direction of your musings (as you so very clearly stated here) would have made the topic worthy of discussion. I can see that this particular topic was not the only reason for the frustration that 'some venerable saints' are feeling. Biblical meditations are to 'guide others to contemplation,' and therefore must be clear in their direction. Abstract meditations are for the soul of the beholder, or those who specialize in poetry, philosophy, or mysticism. I am not sure that 2 Corinthians 10:5 is appropriate to your appeal, as it speaks of destroying speculation. Peace upon you, dear brother. In Christ Jesus, charis |
