Re: [TruthTalk] The Mediation of Christ

[Lance Muir]

We've all misunderstood what someone has meant when spoken to. We've all similarly been misunderstood, as to our meaning, when speaking to others. On occasion this may entail 'deception'. When it does not then, to what do we attribute this prevailing misconception of our meaning?   ----- Original Message ----- From: Judy Taylor To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: June 02, 2004 16:06 Subject: [TruthTalk] The Mediation of Christ So, the Holy Spirit is not able to give understanding if everyone does not see every nuance of language in the same light?  I communicate with people from all over - my husband and I communicate with our grandson who points and uses one word.  How so?     From: "Lance Muir" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> No, the problem IS with language itself. From: Judy Taylor From: "Lance Muir" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "language is the house of being" one ought to take care when one objectifies language...   jt: What kind of a statement is this?  Philosophy from Heidegger who some call a Nazi philosopher?   What Jesus meant and what we say he meant may not be the same in all cases.   jt: True, but the problem is not with "language" per se. The problem is with the deceitful heart of mankind...who holds the truth in unrighteousness.   If it were (the same in all cases) we would be 'one unified body', in speach at least, but, we are'nt so it's not (the same in all cases)...is it??   jt: No it's not because we have an adversary who has been busy for the past 2,000yrs sowing confusion and since there is little or no discernment in the body of Christ.  Confusion and chaos reign.   judyt
