Bible Note: Ray: Never be surprised at at who might agree with you. After reading your question I went look it up in several references and they gave several renderings and your, or should I say their understang of this scripture. The answer was basic to your's and mine. I really can't take much credit for that was what I was taught in college Bible NT 101. So very little is orignal with anyone. We repeat what we have learned by or from others. I read your profile, and have you gone on your trips yet? I think your reminder to have a prostate exam and PSA blood check is vital! My grandfather died of prostrate cancer, my dad has it but he is 83. As this can be linked to being geniticaly passed down. I started these tests at 35. my PSA is 3. I take Flomax which is heavy duty, and facepossible surgery this year myself. You are on my list of those I pray for with health issues. I am so glad you are still keeping those questions to stir us into thinking about our faith. Peace and blessings to you and yours, Ray. justme |
