Subject: A FALSE TEACHING? Yes / No |
Bible Note: Emmaus I agree, the term language here could be viewed that way. In fact I will go as far as saying it probably was the writer intention rather than self abasement as I first suggested. I should have read MacArthur's commentary before I said what I did as MacArthur seems to agree with your take. Thanks However I'm sure you will agree that does not open the door to describe Jesus as a worm or having a weak emancipated wormy spirit. Nor is there any way to say the worm here is the sin of the world as Graceful suggestted. Thanks for pointing that out. EdB |
