(tHe AnTiLiB posted) HE INTERPRETED SCRIPTURE DIFFERENTLY THAN WHAT THE BIBLE CLEARLY SAID, ... NOT REBELLIOUS, BUT SMART.
(Quester replied) JESUS is the AUTHOR of the scriptures. As such, He has the right and perogatve to provide us with the correct interpretation of the scriptures.
(tHe AnTiLiB replied) Jesus wasn't around when the scriptures were written by the "Father?"
(Reggie comment) Seems kinda crazy to me, but not unexpected from the anti one.
(Now Cindy replies to Anti) Morning, antilib. Glad you are reading your bible. What scripture are you finding this in ? CD
(Now IMRight chimes in) "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning." - John 1: 1-2

What am I missing? What sense does Anti's reply make?
Is IMRight serious? Is he aware of the context involved in the series of posts? Is he providing Quester with information he is not familiar with?
Not a lot. He seems to be operating under the (quite incorrect) premise that Jesus specifically contradicted the meaning of the commandments, as set forth in the OT when He "Worked" on the Sabbath.
Quester points out that Jesus can provide us with the correct interpretation, which is exactly the correct position.
Antilib seems to have, despite Quester's clear identification of Jesus as the Author of Scripture, taken Quester's position to be that Jesus was not around to write Scripture correctly the first time, and had to "change" it.
Which is, as I said, very confused and incorrect.

What am I missing? You don't think this is a reference to Christ? Not evidence that He was around when the Father wrote Scripture (whatever the heck THAT is supposed to mean)?
Can't speak for the others but mine was that this guy really needs help with interpretation.
