Subject: How do we open eyes to truth? |
Bible Note: Dear Johnny, Again I become weary with your 'challenging' style of stating your opinions. You say that you are not giving personal thoughts but Bible truth. How arrogant! No, I don't have to get into a Scripture tit-for-tat with you, especially when you use verses out of context and only from the translation that suits your purposes. The correct rendering of Luke 3:14 would be more like, 'Some soldiers were questioning him, saying, "And what about us, what shall we do?" And he said to them, "Do not take money from anyone by force, or accuse anyone falsely, and be content with your wages."' (NASB) The context of this verse does not tell soldiers not to fight, but to treat those in the nation they occupy fairly and without personal greed. The Bible does not tell you specifically to breathe, either, but I suggest that you continue. Please do not say that you are speaking as a "true Christian" implying that those that disagree with you are not. In Christ Jesus, charis |
