Subject: Question for Rowdy.... |
Bible Note: Greetings Rowdy! You wrote: "As I mentioned previously God does expect us to use our intellect and make certain conclusions based on His Word, especially in those few areas when some few verses aren't ideally clear like those verses pointed out by our dear friend Tim." With all due respect my friend, you have to be joking! Right? Let's look at one example of the 24 verses I cited for you. John 3:36 - "Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on him." Now, how can you possible say that this verse is not clear? If you 'believe' (the verbal form of the Greek word for 'faith'), you have eternal life. If you don't believe, you don't have eternal life. Seems pretty clear to me! ;-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
