Bible Note: Thank you Hank, but I am sure that you will agree that there are various truths in scripture which simply are not stated word for word. As to your Doctor analogy, I appreciate and understand it, but I claim no Doctorate which is not readily available to all who wish to know the truth concerning the Living Word of God. Nor do I receive the wage you are paying your Doctor to provide his services. I do firmly believe that 2 Timothy 2:15 was translated as it is, in the King James Version, for a reason, and that one of the greatest weapons the enemy possess is laziness toward self indulgence in the Word, and that it is better to teach a person to fish, rather than continuing to give him fish. Where in scripture, dear Hank, are we commanded to "prove anything" concerning the word? Are we not commanded to, "Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction." 2 Timothy 4:2 Have I not followed Peters word in " 1 Peter 3:15 "But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect." ? That I have chosen a method which attempts to draw one deeper into scripture, rather than sole dependency on others for information, Is this disrespectful? Dear Brother, can you tell me where in scripture we are commanded to prove the Word of God? Is this not rather left up to Gods discretion? Are we not simply to present that Word and the truth thereof? I pray you, Brad, Doc, and all who read can understand my analogy. Proof in in the beholder. In His loving Name I am Not Yet perfect, but I am on my way. |
