Judy, if Terry is somewhat serious, this is my point as well.
I see nothing in your post that challenges anything I said.
Big IF JD. I don't read Terri's comment in a positive way, I think he is addressing something else. Terry !!! What say ye??
When I write something like that, it is me thinking out loud, really !! I am reading scripture, looking up stuff, going over and over my post -- LETTING GOD WORK IN ME as I try to come to a knowledge of the faith that lies within. I don't write so that I can share -- I write for me, in these instances.
Oh! Then why do you send it to the TT List? Sometimes, I really don't know. I do know that your only reason is to correct and judge.
Last night, for the first time, I came to a realization of just how connected the gospel is to the firstfruit of creation and everything that follows ----.without becoming a pantheist !!
Are you calling Israel the firstfruit of Creation? No. I was referring to "let there be light." Something evil in that ??
I would suggest to my friends that they do the same. Writing out of an apologetical concern can be a good thing. But writing and comparing notes of others who are still involved in the search for truth as revealed in the written word is, in my opinion, even better. We are not involved in such activity often enough.
