Bible Question:
You said ... "There are several passages in the Bible which are, even though truly God's inspired Word (I agree- everything in the Bible is what He wants us to know), impossible to keep word-by-word today" So do YOU pick and choose what YOU want to keep? What do you do with 2 Timothy 3:16? What part of "ALL Scripture" IS NOT "profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness"? |
Bible Answer: Hi Searcher, Thanks for your reply. No, I didn't say we get to choose what to keep and what not to keep. I only suggested that we keep all of them according to the intentions of God and the writers of the passages, by looking at the biblical and social setting for the actual passage - rather than taking them out of biblical context and so enforcing them in today's social setting. But maybe I am really mistaken... Please read my reply to Angel. God bless you, Zsuzsi |
