Subject: word of God or Word? |
Bible Note: Hi, Thanks for catching my mistake about Luke being listed with the apostles. May I say however, that a witness can testify of things seen and heard but an eyewitness would be just that, telling what has appeared and occured before his eyes. There are some other discussions going on in the forum about the word "word" and I think that it is good that people consider them. I love and respect the Scriptures, but I have always talked about the word of God simply because it allows a differentiation between the message and the Man. Incidentally, I didn't find the word message in the dictionary under word. From the heart, Ray |
