Subject: Is God somehow responsible? |
Bible Note: Greetings again my brother! I have considered Jude 1:4 in light of the other verses you listed and I fear that my understanding of the verse remains the same. How is it that this happens? I confess that I am at a loss. How can two brothers get such different meaning from the same verse? Perhaps it is because we both read Scripture with preconceived notions. And if that is true... I am certain we could have some very interesting discussions, but neither of us would change our view. Therefore, shall we continue? To what end? I do not want to foster division or dissension. Admittedly, in light of some other disturbing posts I have read I now regret stepping into this discussion! But, at the same time, I am extremely curious as to how you would interpret certain other verses of Scripture. Then again, you may be curious as to how I would respond to specific "proof texts". Alas, what shall we do? Your intrigued friend, --Beva |
