Bible Note: J. I assume this was meant for "Searcher". I'm on your side here. My comment that you will probably be banned was meant as a joke. You are absolutely correct when you said that there are too many legalistic (factual) people that have to tear apart everything you say - even when you were talking (writing) to me about my father. I think a lot of people (myself included at times) forget about Jesus' love and look to the bible as our God. I'm sorry to say (actually I'm glad) that the bible is not God. It's merely a tool used to help us learn about who God really is. Like any tool, it can be abused to the point where it loses it's functionality. --John Green |
