Subject: Could you be more specific |
Bible Note: Steve, I thought I answered this earlier but I don't see it. Don't you think you're being just a bit too legalistic? There are definately circumstances like are mentioned above that you have to consider on their own individual merits. You would not lie in order to protect the life of your wife and children if you were in that circumstance? I believe you'd be answering for that when you get judged. I agree it's not right to lie but sometimes, in certain circumstances, it seems it is the lessor of the two evils. Seems like you also advocated a woman submitting to abuse too. Steve, think, you are acting more like a Pharasee holding to the exact letter of the law and no infractions, period. Seems like they were constantly riding Jesus because he didn't keep their laws. Even on the Andy Griffith show,Andy got onto Barney about following the law to a T when he arrested the whole town instead of adding in the human factor and showing some judgement. I'm just saying watch out lest you get trapped in legalism! Seems Jesus was against legalism too. |
