Bible Note: Thank you very much for the informative response, I must say the Bible doctrine that I have sustained in my frame of reference has gone through “many overhauls” since the early years when I was placed in God’s family; the later part of 1965. Some truths are well polished by reason of use but still others are in place but lack the proper refinements brought about by smoothing and finishing of numerous other verses of the same essence. Psalm 119:160 The sum of Thy word is truth, And every one of Thy righteous ordinances is everlasting. I believe we have only established truth when “all the verses” of Scripture pertaining to that particular doctrine withstand the tests of scrutiny of other Bible verses and there are no contradictions. I try to understand Scripture at face value accepting it in it’s most normal, natural and customary sense. Your particular suggestion in Genesis, portraying an angelic court, will have to float in my storage compartment for now since I personally don’t have enough Scripture to support it. 2 Tim. 3:16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, Ephes. 4:13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fulness of Christ. Still growing in Christ, CDBJ |
