Bible Note: Greetings EdB! I would respectfully disagree my friend. Scripture can be taken out of context, ignored, or misunderstood at times. But, it is clear! On almost every example you cited, there are differing opinions, but I would argue that one side or the other ignores many Scriptures that do not agree with their view. It is not that Scripture is unclear. It is that we don't want to hear what it has to say. To say otherwise is to say that the words of Scripture have no meaning - that it can mean one thing to one person and another thing to another person. If this were the case, why have Scripture at all. Everyone could simply believe whatever they wanted. :-) I also mentioned that one of our problems is that we often go beyond what Scripture says. You used the example of when the 'perfect' has come. Scripture never identifies what the 'perfect' is, so we are speculating when we try to guess. :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
