Subject: Megiddo, do I understand you correctly? |
Bible Note: GeorJoy;-( I read your note yesterday, and chewed my cudd on it last night and this morning. Your zeal for quoting the Word is excellent. I hope to convay respect and kindness in notes I send, and leave the subject open for the person receiving my note does not feel I have boxed them in. In some subjests that can not be done, but I still attempt to be kind and respectful. The part of your note I was addressing was your statement that "we who are saved have no sin." That statement I have always thought simply is not accurate, or Biblical. I refered you to 1 John 1:10that goes to prove that if we say we have no sin we are liers. George that was my intended point. Perhaps I did not communicate it very well. But I will rethink my position, I must be wrong? I surely agree that I do need more time on my knees, I never have felt I prayed long enough, I always seem to leave something out when talking to my Holy Father. I often think I would have failed to stay awake as took place when Jesus asked Peter and others to stay awake and pray before Jesus was betrayed. I am certian I could have done no better than Peter and the others did. I carefully reread your note, I am sorry that I have not achieved the spiritual maturity that expected from me. You make a valid point that I must be lacking some basic skills not to have the understanding of what you said. My failure not to comprehend did in deed make me unable to correctly grasp what you wrote, or I certian I would have understood what you wrote. If I in any way infered by my choice of "justme" brings any dishonnor the the Lord, I am truely ashamed. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. In over 1000 notes I have written you have been to only one with courage enough to tell me. I do not know what to say. My ineffective method of attempting to bring Biblical truth and wisdom are worthless, and I am with out excuse. I do appreciate your advise to clear my mind of what I think and I know, and get down on my knees. I will do some serious praying. My prayer is that I too can become as wise and mature as you have. I hope that in time I can become more like Christ. justme |
