Subject: Can the Bible and Jesus be Idols? |
Bible Note: Hello NewCovenant7777, It seems like you are getting the formula for posting on the forum down pat. Say, you wouldn’t happen to be an NFL backfield runner would you; your answer to my simple question is some of the greatest side stepping and broken field movements I think I have ever observed! Sometimes telling a person what something is not, can run the gamut from peanuts to planets but the recipients of your replication usually get left somewhere in between. Since the inspired Word of God doesn’t even use the English word “repentance” wouldn’t it be easer and advantageous to see what the Koine Greek word, “metanoia” has to say? Another little hint that I would like to pass on, if you don’t mind, is not to just use a chapter and verse, in your post, but write it all out! Acts 11:18 (KJV) When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life. Most of those that read your post won’t bother to look up and read the address of the Scripture quoted unless you spell it all out! I sure hope you take all this in the manner in which it is sent, as brother in Christ. Could you take a little time and fill out your personal profile so that the forum clan has some idea of where you are coming from, it sure would be appreciated? Juts click on the name of the author of any post and it will come up. Have a great day, CDBJ |
