Bible Question:
Please feel free to follow-up with an additional question or note. Why don't you try addressing the scripture instead of using reverse Psychology to answer a question with a question, thereby avoiding an honest answer? 2 Pet 3:16 Speaking of this as he does in all of his letters. There are some things in those [epistles of Paul] that are difficult to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist and misconstrue to their own utter destruction, just as [they distort and misinterpret] the rest of the Scriptures. |
Bible Answer: Dear heman, Since you are new here, I hope the following tips helpful for you when posting and for better follow up discussion for other users. 1/ When you post a follow-up note or question in the existing thread, please mark it "note" unless you want to start a new question outside of the original thread. 2/ When you register, I believe (to my memory) there is a requirement that you need to fill in your valid email address. So, when a post/question is in respond to yours, the system will automatically notify you by email. In case you are sure that you are missing any email notification from Lockman, you can always write to them for help. 3/ As a long-time participant on the forum, the style of Searcher that I understand is that he always provide short and biblical answer, but might not be direct answer. He also likes to answer with a question to trigger the poster's thought to dig into the scripture. I think this is a good way to foster thinking. We have been experiencing many demanding straight forward direct from the forum as if the forum is a "fast food restaurant". I believe most of the regulars here on the forum do not think it a good idea for training serious bible study. Concerning your question, I see that brother Doc has provided you an answer already --- God created all things for His glory (my paraphrase of his actual wordings). Let me provide the below scriptures to consider:- Psalm 19 Roman 3:23 Roman 8:28 Remember, when you study the scriptures, you may encounter with difficulties on a certain/particular word or phrase. Don't just get stuck there and make haste to file your questions, try reread again and again the whole chapter or even those chapters before and after in order to get a better idea of the context that construct the idea of the writer of the book. God's holy Word is so deep and rich like a buried treasure. It requires our hardwork to dig, dig, dig... Shalom Azure |
