Subject: Church is kidnapped to Sodom! |
Bible Note: Actually you bring me more of a mind to Titus 1:15,16 I am thinking in the early Church, you would have been in the group howling that Paul/Saul should not be allowed to be an apostle because of his earlier, Christ forgiven sins. Jesus had to knock Paul down and blind him for 3 days to get it into his head that his treasured rules were meaningless to the Lord. How wonderful to know that if Jesus still has a use for this poor fallen man in ministry the rule-bound Pharisees will be powerless to stop it. So this debate really is pointless. Continuing in prayer for our fallen brother, and you. Melanie |
