Jeremy i
am surprised you never countered my argument Up till now the above view has
been my understanding however things change when the holy spirit speaks.He amazes me because its always new never old and it reveals why we often misunderstand scripture
in the case of the woman caught
in adultery.We see how she
was condemned to die and by the grace of God Jesus came to her rescue that seems familar to all of us then when they
were alone he said to her Go and sin no more.This
is the point we misunderstand prior to there meeting it
was all about her death when she encountered Jesus something incredible happened he turned a death
situation into life
situation so from our background as sinners we still
in our thinking and understanding dwell
in the darkness our minds
are closed to the truth.
In effect what Jesus
was saying to her and us
is chose life and do nt look back that
is what he meant and that
is the walk we need to live for him.That to me
was a revelation it
was always there but hidden.Does it change that we need discipline
in the church that we need
rules and guidelines for our actions no we still need those things.But does it change how we view non believers and even ourselves definitely its not about sin but its all about choosing life and living.He also revealed some other interesting things on salvation so i might mention those on the once saved always saved discussion.Jeremy just want to say i really appreciate your website because i have not really discussed issues like this and it really
is making me press
in to the Lord for answers to some of those really difficult questions.regards brentnz
