Subject: so spiritually minded no earthly good? |
Bible Note: I would encourage you to read the passage in context and drop the many assumptions. Take a look again starting at verse 25. Using your assumptions you have attributed to them you have defeated your own argument. What you have done is painted a picture of someone who is solely concerned with themselves. So how is it then you find them to be spiritually minded? Did not their actions contradict the law? Did not their actions contradict what the Lord was pointing out in the parable? Of course they did! Even your own reasoning indicate the Priest and the Levite only had an intellectual understanding of the law and no spiritual understanding. I know your intent was not to present it as such but none the less, the text of scripture and even your reasoning show just the opposite. Steve |
