RE: [TruthTalk] Judaizers within the Messianic Movement

I think he very could be that nutty. We see nuttiness like that every day. It's called rebellion. We do things everyday just because our parents say no, our doctor says no, etc. Doc says...no more cantaloupe...you'll have a severe reaction and what happens? We crave cantaloupe. Mom says: Don't smoke dope, your brain will go mushy. We say...REALLY? Let's find out.... The reference to the fire going is very good....however, the command on that is not to KINDLE a fire on the Sabbath. If he already had a fire going, it would be okay to keep it going, especially if it was cold. Scenario: It's cold and a baby was just born in the camp. It happens to be Sabbath. Dad wants to be able to keep his newborn babe warm and goes and gathers sticks. If baby isn't kept warm, he will die. I don't think God would kill dad....saving life supercedes Sabbath law. I also believe GIVING (I don't know if that's the right word I want) life supercedes. I've had several of my children born on Sabbath. That's certainly work to me....but there's absolutely nothing you can do to stop labor once it's started!   Kay -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Judy Taylor Sent: Tuesday, 04 January, 2005 07.33 To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Cc: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Subject: Re: [TruthTalk] Judaizers within the Messianic Movement     Surely he wasn't that "nutty" - I see him as someone who was lacked the fear of God [like Korah] and followed after his flesh which the Law was there to curb.  It's human nature to want to be on top of the game or two steps ahead of everyone else so this fellow was pushing the envelope and I don't think he really believed that God was going to do anything about it; I heard someone once say 'you know if he was getting wood that he had a fire going somewhere and so that's probably not all he was doing.   jt   On Tue, 4 Jan 2005 07:19:17 -0500 "Slade Henson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: The man picking up sticks was probably doing it to flip the bird to God. That's very different than attempting to beautify the campground.
