Bible Note: Mark, Please let me be quick to point out that I was *not* pointing any fingers when I wrote that. I was not trying to suggest that you were parroting, just that in my experience (which is rather extensive), it does tend to be a common issue in many churches. I have read many of your posts since my first visit to this forum, you have obviously done a significant amount of study! :) If I gave the impression that I was directing it toward you, I do apologize, as that was not my intent. And hopefully WOS will read this part as well, I hope I made it clear that the only reason I posted that follow up was that I felt the need to come full circle with my point. I am most definitely *not* trying to mislead anyone, as above and beyond anything I wrote, the point that it truly is not an important debate should have been the strongest. I'm not sure I was successful in that. Had this issue been important, God would have been more clear about the origin of those people to the east of Eden. I pray the best for you and all else in the study of His Word, -Magellan |
