Subject: Why can we not just be Christians? |
Bible Note: Doc, I do not like to use the terms “I believe and I feel” when referring to scripture, but though I did use them, my statements are biblically founded. “I believe” there has been adequate scriptural references to prove this assertion. It is odd. When I did not use those terms, I was called arrogant. Now, I am reminded that "In the Study Bible Forum we study the Bible, not feelings, let alone personal ones." You imply that I speak from personal feelings, brother. Though you may disagree, can you not see the validity of my words? No doubt, if it the time isn't here already, it can't be far off, for the preperations are so visably in place for when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; (2 Timothy 4:3) Humbly NYP |
