Is something like that hidden so deep in the Bible that SOME Christians cannot see it?"Yeah, Terry, if it is there, it must be deeply imbedded. I didn't know what to do with this one, so I left it alone. I figured it would have to stand or fall pretty much on its own weight.Bill----- Original Message -----From: Terry CliftonSent: Monday, March 08, 2004 6:07 AMSubject: Re: [TruthTalk] Questions set the toneKevin Deegan wrote:
I am sorry, that I do not fit your little Butter Cup christianity. That is right, I forgot, we are supposed to "prophesy SMOOTH things" I do not want to work thru the things that divide us. I am interested in staying divided heretics on one side christians on the other. Which side are you? The bible never tells us to find what things we have in common with unbelievers.It is not like any of us here do not believe the bible?What have you been reading. Maybe you posted to the wrong group.I will take your email under advisement as far as it is translated correctly.No reproving, nor rebuke, even if the bible says so. It is unbecoming on a Modern christian, right?Philosphy? Nothing to offer?Col 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
I prefer the bible. maybe you think it has nothing to offer.=================================================================
