Bible Note: Ancient Your right we don't have to do a thing just do anything we want, live anyway we want and say anything we want and God because we have a head knowledge of Christ calls us his children. Particularly if we love everyone. Isn't that exactly what John Lennon was saying when he sang, 'All you need is love'. I think he also wanted to pretend there wasn't a heaven nor a hell. I guess we should just ignore Paul here also Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And this one 1 Peter 1:15-16 but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, [16] because it is written, "Be holy, for I am holy." No I think we are called to follow more than just love although everything is encompassed in love. We are expected to be Holy in conduct and worship God in spirit and in truth and not to forsake assembling together. Call it anything you want that is what scripture says. Oh yes I know that is just advice not an admonishment of the truth. I can see why you don’t want to discuss this. It exposes the roots of your theology. EdB |
