Bible Note: Angel ... I hope this clears up things ......... You said above, "I do not add to Scripture!" But, previously your said, "Additionally, since Paul tells us that as of yet we know GOD only partially (1 Corinthians 13:9-12)" ... emphasis mine. However, the passage doesn't include God. I consider that adding to Scripture. My view on Babies Who Die is found in post 138120. I do not know how God deals with babies and others who die without accepting Him. The perfect, teleios in the Greek, in verse 10 is a neuter noun with a definite article ... it is not coming of a person and His return is not a completed thing in Scripture. Some say this means when the NT was complete, others say the church ... but, I do not know. For more, read post 17815 by Tim. Partial prophecy and knowledge is becuase we don't all the information. If the perfect is the Bible, when Revelation was written, then prophecy and knowledge complete. It is dangerous to link Scripture together with Scripture, if doen out of context ... and I am not saying that you do. Searcher |
