I understand that this is not a forum of Biblical Study and hope all
will forgive this intrusion. My email is always open, but I would
consider emailing someone else, without permission, to be somewhat
improper.
Dear Scott,
You are a Christian.
I am not well versed in the Bible. Being one of those persons
who, at an early age, became dis-illusioned by the sometimes
blatantly apparent hypocrisy of 'the church'. I steered clear of the
Bible, for fear I might become one of 'them'. :)
I have at this late date begun to ummm....re-evaluate things. I
came to realize that just because the 'good book' is many times used
for selfish purpose, it is still the Good Book. I have begun reading
it again. (If I ever get the begats and begots figured out!!!) :)
I write this that I might ask if it would be inappropriate to
contact you with questions I might have.
Yours,
JF

Hi Tammy, In this we will have to disagree. While I can see how Puals writing on this subject can be some what confusing, I simply see it in a different way...
Father Scott To clarify my 'warning' for you: I have spoken with I can't begin to tell you how many ministers, many cut from the same cloth that you are from....
Hi Tammy, You seem to insist on calling me Father Scott. In this then have you confessed that I am a father to you. If I am therefore a father to you, should...
Hi, I don't have children either. It doesn't stop some people from calling me a mother. Go figure. I'm glad to see you mention that the bible should not be...
Hi JF, Concerning Joyce Meyers, There was a time when her husband disagreed with her going into ministry. She had to learn that God required her to be obedient...
Hi, I don't mean to be argumentative, but it is my nature. :) I think one of my problems here is my definition of obedience. You seem to be speaking of mutual...
Hi JF, First off, I have a real problem with Doctors claiming to have Authority. They don't. I dated a gal once who would get pain attacks. I think it was due ...
Hi, I have to tell you I disagree on the authority thing. Although it could be said that God allows certain persons to have authority, in that it is God who...
I sure cannot tell what is going on in all these messages. Sounds like a man trying to assert the patriarchal position, in rather a longwinded way, of women...
Hi, Nice post Victoria. This is not directed at you personally. It's the taking credit for deeds thing. It makes me want to question what is self-serving and...
I was a bit confused by your message, not withstanding, it is perfectly fine if you or anyone else for that matter would like to ask me questions concerning...
Hi, Thank you Scott for your reply. My message was confusing because I communicate very badly. Where a simple, 'may I send you an email' would have sufficed;...
Hi JF, Don't dicount other translations because they use different words. In 1987 I took a postition as a Christian camp counselor. During the training week...
Hi, Thanks. The good thing about various translations is the comparison. If I was not able to compare one translation with another, I would surely be more...
