AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Thessalonians 4:15 For we say this to you by the Lord's [own] word, that we who are still alive and remain until the coming of the Lord, will in no way precede [into His presence] those [believers] who have fallen asleep [in death]. |
Subject: Nudity/ Sin |
Bible Note: kalos : The connection betwixt the note and the question in question to which you responded may be explained thusly: It was built around the word "disembodied" which breaks down as follows: "dis" is short for "disrobe," hence, to get naked; "em" is short for "them" of course; and "bodied" refers to body or corpus (plural bodies or corpi). So we have the question of whether it's ok to disrobe them bodies around the house, i.e. to go naked at home, or in the language of the questioner, "to practice nudity." I'm not clear as yet on just how much one needs to practice in order master the art of being nude, or why one would want to. Neither do I understand the educational value or spiritual edification inherent in running around in one's house naked as a jay bird -- and I'm telling the naked truth about that. --Hank |
