Bible Note: Hey again, Steve....trying to get caught up on correspondence...... Re your comment: "No, I'm not denying that passage (I Jn 2:6). But how did Jesus walk that we should imitate? Total obedience to the Father." Then you cite Php. 2:5-8 about Y'shua's obedience in going to the cross. What are you saying? That's a wonderful scripture that you quoted, but what does that have to do with OUR "total obedience to the Father"? Y'shua walked as a Torah obedient Jew....isn't that the pattern for how we should walk? Thanks Steve.........Bub |
