Subject: Question for Rowdy.... |
Bible Note: Sorry for the mix up. Country Girl is my wife and I forgot to change the ID which comes up automatically on our computer after she logs on. I thought you might have heard, in many circles most Bible students consider the ark to be the antitype of the church, complete with an ocean of sins. The ark is built to the Lord's specifications vs. the church being built to Jesus' specifications. I agree with you, "the emphasis is still on Faith," an active and obedient Faith, totally submissive to God's Will in contrast to the devil who also believes in God but has always refused to obey God and His Commands. I can only think of one more scripture to compliment your statement of "only 1 door." Eph 4:4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as also you were called in one hope of your calling; 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in all. 7 But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ's gift. Hope this helps and God bless. Rowdy |
