You mean we have to use hermeneutics even to properly understand our transparent peer, Caroline, who lives in our very own culture and time and writes in our very own language?? Drag! :-)   Hey, speaking of hermeneutics, what is all this Bulk Bulk Bulk in the subject lines? Is this because people are getting the posts in digests?   Debbie   ----- Original Message ----- From: Lance Muir To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Sent: Friday, April 15, 2005 12:00 PM Subject: Re: [Bulk] RE: [Bulk] RE: [Bulk] RE: [TruthTalk] Re [Truth Talk] Saved -- Salvation -- and the pigpen Hi kids! Can we all say the word hermeneutics? She has never come close to suggesting a one-dimensional God. Yikes! Who (whom?) have you been reading?. ----- Original Message ----- From: ShieldsFamily To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Sent: April 15, 2005 11:30 Subject: [Bulk] RE: [Bulk] RE: [Bulk] RE: [TruthTalk] Re [Truth Talk] Saved -- Salvation -- and the pigpen Shall we put it up for a vote, Lance?  I do not intend to hurt Caroline�s feelings, as she is tender hearted, and I value her opinions greatly.  However, I do not wish for her (or anyone else) to think that we need to be pitied who comprehend God as something more than a one-dimensional Being.  Izzy   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lance Muir Sent: Friday, April 15, 2005 9:27 AM To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Subject: Re: [Bulk] RE: [Bulk] RE: [TruthTalk] Re [Truth Talk] Saved -- Salvation -- and the pigpen   I DO NOT think that being intelligent ENTITLES one to be condescending. If you 'read' that either into or out of my post then, you misread it. She (Caroline) IS NOT condescending therefore, you 'caught' something that wasn't 'thrown'.   Now, when it comes to me.....well........ mea culpa   ----- Original Message ----- From: ShieldsFamily To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Sent: April 15, 2005 10:54 Subject: [Bulk] RE: [Bulk] RE: [TruthTalk] Re [Truth Talk] Saved -- Salvation -- and the pigpen   I never said that Caroline is not intelligent; obviously she is, and I appreciate that plus her sweet transparency.  But you seem to think that being �intelligent� entitles one to be condescending. (Sometimes people who exalt intellectualism get that mixed up.)  You obviously don�t recognize your own condescension of us �fundies�, so wouldn�t recognize it in others, Lance.  We �fundies� are, however surprisingly, intelligent enough to recognize it. So let it be noted for the record.

Caroline IS NOT condescending. Sometimes people get those two mixed up. ----- Original Message ----- From: ShieldsFamily To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Sent: April 15, 2005 09:51 Subject: [Bulk] RE: [TruthTalk] Re [Truth Talk] Saved -- Salvation -- and the pigpen   How could anyone look upon the Cross and think that God is not LOVE?  This does not exclude all of God�s other characteristics, however. He is a many-faceted God, as we are many-faceted creatures, capable of more than one personality trait.  Your continued assertions that those of us who comprehend God more fully than just a God of love are deprived of knowing him as well as you do is somewhat condescending to say the least, Caroline. Think about it. Izzy   But I fully understand the security of following the narrowest path for those who can not wager all on Him being love. There is room in the faith for all and biblical support for both theology.   Love,   Caroline
