AMPLIFIED 2015 | Genesis 3:1 Now the serpent was more crafty (subtle, skilled in deceit) than any living creature of the field which the LORD God had made. And the serpent (Satan) said to the woman, "Can it really be that God has said, 'You shall not eat from any tree of the garden'?" [Rev 12:9-11] |

Bible Note: John, "I don't think that speculation is necessarily wrong when pondering the deep things of God. It may be a means by which The Holy Spirit leads to the truth. But, caution should be exercised lest we drift from from the foundation laid by the Apostles. The Word is our anchor and as such it keeps us from the rocky shoals of heresy." An interesting and truthful statement. But sometimes the anchor of the written Word does get cut loose from the foundation (1 Tim 3:15) laid by the Apostles and Christ and then people are often mislead by their private interpretations of what should be an anchor. But that, as they say, is a whole nother story. Emmaus |
