Bible Note: JVH, You are so right in your belief that it was never my intention for case history to supersede Scripture. And I do not believe that any such notion was expressed or implied by what I posted. Frankly, I'm becoming rather gun shy and reluctant to post anything on this forum for fear that my molehill will be turned into a mountain. As one whose major study in school was the English language, I'm starting to wonder whether, at this late stage in my life, I have forgotten (or perhaps never really learned) how to construct a single clear and unambiguous sentence. Have I become all of a sudden bereft of any ability to communicate? --Hank |
