Bible Note: Hello again Russ, I have been misunderstood in the past, so I know it is a bad feeling. Are we misunderstanding you here? After reading your profile, I think that I now have a better understanding of your view of the scriptures. I think that what you have been trying to say is that since God has done so much for you, He is more to you than all that you have learned from scripture so far. I may be wrong, so correct me. Also, your gratitude to Him and your fellowship with Him is on-going; a continuing fellowship that is difficult to express by quoting scripture. The "warm fussy" feeling is from feeling unworthy of the great miracle as He brought you back to life. You indeed have a high regard for scripture, but since you know Him and communicate personally with Him through prayer and study ... Am I on the right track here about you? Your brother in Christ, Pastor Glenn |
