1 Corinthians 8:6
#64
Gentlemen,

I certainly second Dan Gan's emotion and thoughts on this. The discussions should not become personal attacks. If one suspects another is unsaved or unregenerate , he should pray that The Spirit and truth will reveal it. This forum is not the one for personal evangelism.
As far as being born again is concerned, I find the truth and salvation of God are given me as armor and the word as a sword.
If I am offended personally by words others use against me, I need to search myself to see why I am offended.

Ps 119:165 Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.

7 ?? Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.
14 ?? And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.
15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.
16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
1 John 4:7-16

I have also been very disturbed by attacks on the Hebrew Bible (Massoretic) and slurs on a text here and there with which I take issue. I love the word of God, and when I read things like "The Massoretic text is junk" , or words to that effect, I get sick to my stomach. That is not the spirit I received from Jesus Christ.
I was saved by hearing an Old Testament verse translated from the traditional Hebrew text read in a funeral service and the Gospel message afterward.
I would fear for myself if I ever were to disparage a Bible text in any language that was honestly copied and translated. I have yet
to see evidence that The Hebrew OT was not. There are errors in every manuscript and text, and perhaps some few are deliberate, but I must believe in the integrity of the scriptures and their preservation because Jesus promised it to us, and if He broke that promise, we have no foundation for faith in Him , God or the gospel.
Ps 11:3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?

'Nough for now.

In love with Him ,


Dave B
