Bible Note: Hi Mark, Thanks for putting this issue into proper, contextual perspective. It's unfortunate that others will pick and choose (not to mention leave out) scripture in order to support their argument; and then send the less learned on a wild goose chase after something that's not there. That is not very good bible study (not to mention bad teaching methods). I have studied this passage in context and heared it taught on several times. I have never had it presented to me in the way that Doc did. I gave considerable time to his post and, like you, couldn't line it up with scripture. I'm not trying to degrade him I just don't understand why he continues to do this post after post. Your post on the other hand was very well laid out and supported with scripture in context. Thanks for that. It is a very dangerous thing to manipulate scripture to make it make your point, especially for those witnessing that are trying to learn. Thanks for taking the time to study and put things in their proper perspective. Jeff |
