Bible Note: Good morning Azure, John wasn't talking about years, but in maturity (and I love these verses): 1Jn 2:12 I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake. 1Jn 2:13 I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father. 1Jn 2:14 I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one. Don't you just love those verses too? I know you knew what I was talking about but I printed them cos they are so rich. Not at all a bad thing being a "father." I would that I were there at my late age :-). But even the writer of those words had to take his baby steps, no? Cheri |
