Subject: Doc, biblical basis, please? |
Bible Note: Doc, I apologize if we are not adequately communicating. It seems that we just have very different views. And in such case, it would likely serve well to examine the scriptures together. Since we each come from different backgrounds, it would be understandable if we interpret things differently. What is patently obvious to one of a certain religious background, may actually be quite antitethical to one of a different religious background. This is why so many varied denominations exist. I'll go through each of the verses that you've provided here, and attempt to ascertain contextual applicability with the scenario that I have presented. Then I will respond soon enough with an interpretive breakdown of each verse that you've provided. Fair enough? - Blessings, Reighnskye |
