Subject: What unmarried sexual acts are sinful? |
Bible Note: Dear JVH and forrest, You guys had a great conversation on 4/12 and 4/13 that I just now read. Rest assured that many people will be blessed by it, especially as your future postings with each other will continue to show the love of the Lord that you both have. Now since I'd rather talk about capitalization of scripture rather than unmarried sexual acts any day, that's what this posting is about. Typing mistakes that forrest implies he might make and varying, inconsistent usage of the Written Word aside, I would like to just say what I believe and would get from your discussion. The philosophical bent of the use of capitalization is thought of as a waste of time to you JVH but its use will help in showing that you are both saying the same things in agreement. I believe that there is truth itself and that there is the Truth Himself. I don't think we have to say truth itself (Himself) as forrest did. I believe that it is important to know the bible teaching that will lead to correct doctrine and tradition. We need to know the truth itself. I believe that it is most important to know the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and the "message of this Life." John 8:31 says, "If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; and you will know the Truth, and the Truth will make you free."...NASB (except for capital T's) "So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed." Compare that with John 14:7, "...from now on you know Him and have seen Him."...and yet you have not come to know Me, Phillip?" I was led to contrast Isaiah 45:4-15 also. Don't be afraid to communicate your differences especially if you do as well as you did here. |
