Re: [TruthTalk] A 'prooftexter' vs a 'contexter'

[Judith H Taylor]

Dave, Jesus is the authority and he did not set up a hierarchal flesh kingdom to stand in for Him His kingdom is organic rather than organizational.  Leadership leads by example rather than as CEO The least is as important as the greatest and all are to submit one to another in the fear of God. This is the example we find in the NT.  You will note that John recognized the false by the way they behaved and warned the Church not to receive them.   judyt   On Fri, 22 Jul 2005 22:59:59 -0700 Dave <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: DAVEH:  As I see it, the big problem was not the heresy as much as it was the lack of authority.
