Subject: Acts 13:1 |
Bible Note: Dear Jamison, plese don't keep quiet! This is an open forum and I am willing to hear what other Christians veiw things like. I don't know which part of the thread you caught, somewhere in there I acknowledged that they get this belief from a number of verses later on in the thread. In that same note I said that Jesus used the word sleep as a euphimism and that so did those in the OT use it as a euphimism. Somehow we need to find out not what our context is based on our theology, but what the historical context of the authors and the subjects of the stories were in order to understand how they were using the words. That should be driving how we understand what they said, not our theology today. It is your business if you see something say it, we are all trying to understand the Bible, there is room for unity in tolerance and room for unity in coming to understanding what each of us views things like.
