Re: [TruthTalk] The Kryptonite Theory of Sin

What you fail to see Judy is that your very words indicate a "Greek" or maybe better put, a "Western" mindset.  It makes no difference that You cannot see it. While some here might not have thought of it this way, I can see by their replies they also see this in you. That very mindset is what causes you to answer in the way that you do.  I hate to say it, but, in spite of the fact that you thought you studied and held to Torah, you display a hellenized response.  You say that your source is the word of God. I find that amazing. Why do you suppose you have alienated people on both sides of the Gentile/Jewish coin here?        Judy, be careful of that Hebrew mindset stuff!!!  Hmmmmm, that is the Whole Bible!

Those who cursed Paul were not following God. They were haters of men.   Care must be taken with the Hebrew mindset, as Judy rightly says. It will make you realize ALL PEOPLE (EVERY SINGLE ONE) living in the Western world (which includes Canada and USA) all think with a Hellenistic mindset. Most greatly so; others less so.   -- slade   On Fri, 29 Oct 2004 06:26:57 -0400 "Lance Muir" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: Wow! Anyone else 'signing on'? Judy?   What for?  I'm not into Greek or any other philosophy. My source is God's Word with the aid of the Holy Spirit which teaches that man is spirit, soul, and body. Be careful with this Hebrew mindset stuff. You may end up like the Jews who persecuted Peter and Paul. The ones who swore a curse on Paul and vowed to kill him. judyt Amazing�I agree with Jonathan here!

That's how I receive Spirit vs. Flesh arguments.   Judyt: I can't imagine why Slade; the reality of the fact that man is a spirit being is all through scripture ie:   Zech 12:1 "I formed the spirit of man within him" Hebrews 12:9 contrasts the fathers of the flesh with the Father of Spirits. Romans 8:1,2 contrasts walking after the flesh with walking after the Spirit Galatians 5:19-23 contrasts fruit of the flesh as opposed to fruit of the Spirit   How does one explain these scriptures and the ones I haven't listed when in denial?   --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free.
