Bible Note: Dear NYP, Ignorance of the creeds is easy to remedy. I have never used the word "gibberish" in this forum until this very post -- you can also verify that fact very easily. Please don't put words in my mouth. 2 Timothy 3:7 is speaking of apostate, non-believers. To accuse someone of being outside of the will of God... indeed as one who is an active enemy of God... is a very, very serious charge! I have spoken kindly and respectfully, sir. I will choose to assume that you are simply one who fails to understand the implications of his own words, since the alternatives are far too unpleasant. It saddens me, but I find that interacting with you is failing to edify anyone. In Him, Doc |
