Bible Note: Hello keliy- The intent of the "understatement" comment is best represented by Webster's 1st definition, not the 2nd. "to represent as less than is the case". As for what I am trying to teach you about being an ambassador of Christ is responsibility. I have to be honest and say, no, I really don't see your point. If you came here to study then study; don't make derogatory statements about others (denominations and individuals who have spent a lifetime of studying God's word and posses more insight and knowledge of Scripture than you and I every will). More importantly, don't take positions that you are unable to support by Scripture and then avoid responding directly to those issues when others call it to attention. That will not be tolerated long here. You make the assumption that I have been a Christian for longer than you have been alive. You might be right, I don't know... some information in your user profile would be helpful in knowing something about you. In any case, there are others much older than me here and who have been Christian's longer than I have with more formal and informal bible study. Knowing that, maybe you should be a bit more focused on learning than teaching at this point; less critical and more self-observant; less assuming and more knowing through the effort of serious bible study. I'm not really sure what to think about one claiming his humility in one sentence and denying pride in the next. I will say that true humility is obvious, not something we need to point out in ourselves. |
