Bible Note: Greetings John! So, when God inspired John to use it 162 times (according to your source), and Mark 151 times, and Matthew approx. 93 times, and Luke 11 times, was He being less educated? ;-) I would be very hesitant to make that sort of a value judgement on God's Word. As for Paul's account in Rom. 7, isn't that a narrative section? You are arguing that Paul is describing himself as a believer struggling with slavery to sin, while I am arguing that Paul is describing himself prior to becoming a believer. Either way, the section is narrative and biographical. :-) Anyway, I think I have stated my points quite clearly. So, I will leave this topic for now (unless something new comes up in the future). Thanks for the discussion my friend! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
