Lance, for the record, I agree with you here! It's unfortunate that David M.(and a few others) is blind to the simple realities of this list.

Sectarianism DOES INDEED EXIST ON TT!! Please, someone correct either myself
or David on this. Further, Linda does indeed say what amounts to, "I am of
David". (Linda, please illustrate for us with what frequency you 'amen'
David (WOW that was an awesome post, David!) Sorry David, but ya gots at
least one disciple.


Private interpretation DOES INDEED EXIST ON TT!! Please, someone correct
either myself or David on this. Further on this, David, are we reading the
same forum? Who among us says: "What I'm about to say that differs with what
you say has no biblical foundation whatsoever, as I interpret Scripture."


Am I incorrect in identifying you, Judy and Linda as having a dislike, if
not disdain, for 'tradition'? What, as y'all see it, replaces this
(tradition) is your (correct) interpretation of Scripture.By 'private' I'd
include those who both know what you mean and agree with your
interpretation.

No, it is not so.  Paul was rebuking sectarianism.  We should not have
anyone here saying, "I am of David" (I do NOT believe this is Linda) nor
others saying, "I am of Judy" (who says this?).  We should all be seeking
to
be conformed to the image of Christ.  The final arbiter of truth is Jesus
Christ.  Private interpretation of Scripture is NOT ALLOWED.  The reason
we
discuss with one another is to circumvent private interpretation.

Peace be with you.
David Miller.
