Bible Note: Well, you’re going to have me apologizing all night aren’t you dear sister? I thought I was giving you my take when I said I thought you might have missed the point of the scripture you cited in reference to the question. As a follower of Christ, I’m under the impression that is part of our obligation to Him. The questioner didn't miss the point as it was a question being asked not an answer being given. So I responded where I thought it was appropriate. You surely don’t have to take my post as authoritative and hope that you in fact wouldn’t without your own study of the Word. And since you have already done that, and still come to a different view, you’re right, not much more we can discuss. Although, I wonder why you think I was correcting you? I was simple expanding on God’s word because it seemed to more thoroughly explain reaping and sowing in the context of just more than one verse. Was that wrong? Would you have been as offended if I made the same post to the original question? And at that point, why? Val, I’m just trying to understand why you feel your post to the original question is in itself not supposed to be questioned? Aren’t we supposed to lift each other up? 1Thessalonians 5:11 Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do. Romans 14:19 Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another. Or do you feel because I tried to live up to those facts that I in some way belittled you? I’m truly sorry if I expressed anything other than love for God’s Word and inadvertently offended you. But I truly hope that if another on this forum could expand on and elaborate on a post that I make, they would do it. Because as you are sure of some things, I’m sure that I do not know it all and am growing each and every day. Stand in His grace, WOS |
