[TruthTalk] ON MEANING

From: "Lance Muir" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I truly don't mean what you think I mean. Without meaning there are

only words (including God's Words). Even with God's Spirit we all

demonstrate a remarkable capacity to circumvent His Meaning.

jt: A couple more thoughts on the above statement. Who do you

think it is who 'circumvents' God's meaning? Who is it who put his

own spin on Matt 4:6? (compare with the original in Ps 91:11,12)

And, without meaning there is no communication just an exchange

of words.

jt: Right but scripture teaches "there are, it may be, so many kinds of

voices in the world and none of them is without signification; therefore

if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be unto him that speaketh

a barbarian and he that speaketh shall be a barbarian unto me., even so

ye forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts seek that ye may excel

to the edifying of the Church" (1 Cor 14:10) and Paul goes on to say

that it is not good to speak in tongues at Church because noone knows

what the person is saying except God.

Same with complicated extra Biblical doctrines; if you can't show what

you are saying clearly by scripture then you are as a "trumpet with an

uncertain sound"
