Just to point out, Scubie.... you've spent quite a lot of time arguing in a mode of "my Scripture verses" vs. "your Scripture verses."

And the fact is, in most cases it's easy to find verses in one place or another that support either of the positions in this argument.

That should give you serious pause. Perhaps, just perhaps, things are not nearly so cut and dried as you want them to be. And once you realize that, perhaps you and yours will be less willing to condemn those with whom you disagree.

Number 1, I take all Scripture very seriously. If you or some else believes they have Scripture that contradicts the Scripture I post, then fine post it, and I'll study it.

Number 2, some things are cut and dried. Such as "There is none other name under heaven whereby you must be saved." Acts 4:12 or "There is only one mediator between man and God, the man Christ Jesus." 1 Timothy 2:5 We are to use the clear Scripture to help us understand the unclear Scripture, but to imply nothing is clear is wrong. That sounds like relativism, to me.

Number 3, I can not, nor have I ever tried to condemn anyone. Only God can condemn someone. I can and should as a Christian, point out to other Christians where I think they are in error though.

2Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
