Bible Question:
How does God use Satan to work everything together for good? I'm wondering if this verse relates? "Among these are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have handed over to Satan, so that they will be taught not to blaspheme." 1 Tim 1:20 |
Bible Answer: Dear Sister Mommaphs, Welcome back to the SBF. I am so excited to see you post again and I praise the Lord for His gracious care for you in your time of need. May I surmise that you have been recovered from your illness? With regards to your question, I think it is not appropriate to exclude the last part of the verse "to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose." for proper understanding. In the case of Hymenaeus and Alexander, I hesitate to assure of the co-relation of both verses. I will need to check further. The main purpose of this post is to address my warm welcom to you, dear sister :-) Shalom Azure |
