AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 13:12 For now [in this time of imperfection] we see in a mirror dimly [a blurred reflection, a riddle, an enigma], but then [when the time of perfection comes we will see reality] face to face. Now I know in part [just in fragments], but then I will know fully, just as I have been fully known [by God]. |
Bible Question (short): Why so blind? |
Question (full): I know the answer is in scripture, but I can't put my finger on it. My questions are as follows; 1) Why do people who (appear) to be sincere twist the true meaning of scripture? If possible, I would prefer scriptural quotes as an answer, ie "KJV Mar 4:12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand," with limited paraphrases, devoid of OPINION. 2) Is the entire bible as a parable to some, or only portions that they choose not to accept? Or is it as is said in Ecc 3:1 "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven," to include understanding as well? George |
