Bible Note: Greetings CDBJ - thanks for the advice. The root of the problem is that this chap doesn't believe that Jesus is God. He's attracted to His mission to "set the captives free" as he percieves the injustice in the world (which in reality is the result of sin) yet he refuses to agree with God on the authority of Jesus - who He claimed to be and the authority of His Word. So, it is as Hank observed, casting pearls before swine. I do pray for this young man and others like him who persist is going their own way. Blessings, mommapbs |
