Bible Note: Lightedsteps, You stated: Many might say that the ("GLASS" - "MIRROR") is a metaphor for the law, but when we look at the passage where this metaphor is used, we see it is not speaking about the law, "but the engrafted word", therefore the mirror should not used as a metaphor for the law Having made that statement, you have essentially said that the "word" in that passage, which people look into and then forget, is not the law. If it is not the law, then you must be suggesting it is something else. What is that something else in the James passage? What is the "word" in that specific context. I hope this clarifies. In Christ, Beja |
