Why couldn't Norman Rockwell have found more photogenic (or is that paintogenic) subjects for his artwork? Love the guy dearly and the "down home" reverie, however not everyone down home looks so cornpone. (I can say that and get away with it since my family roots are down home.)Solameaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09869424956571944997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-1144769335739696952006-04-11T08:28:00.000-07:002006-04-11T08:28:00.000-07:00So you are saying we should be well versed in King...So you are saying we should be well versed in King James English Dan?<BR/><BR/><BR/>*ducks*LeeChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05540608568274871363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-1144768551781593272006-04-11T08:15:00.000-07:002006-04-11T08:15:00.000-07:00dan,Good point, and well taken.dan,<BR/><BR/>Good point, and well taken.donsandshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03665794015011057098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-1144758345088199362006-04-11T05:25:00.000-07:002006-04-11T05:25:00.000-07:00Don -- However, there are exceptions to the rule, ...<B>Don</B> -- <I>However, there are exceptions to the rule, but they should be rare, I would think</I><BR/><BR/>That's the very factor that can make this a bit difficult to discuss sometimes.<BR/><BR/>Pretty much immediately one is answered with names -- as if a name is a point of argument. "What about _____?" Then it becomes about attacking or defending ______ -- when of course that's nothing to do with what animates me on this subject.<BR/><BR/>For me it's a matter of the implications of the truth of plenary, <I>verbal</I> inspiration, and my understanding of the Biblical definition of a pastor's most God-prized activity (1 Timothy 5:17; 2 Timothy 4:1-4, etc.).DJPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16471042180904855578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-1144757369279247302006-04-11T05:09:00.000-07:002006-04-11T05:09:00.000-07:00"Expound a literature they are unable to read"I ha..."Expound a literature they are unable to read"<BR/><BR/>I have seen how deavtating this can be. And the worse part, is that it may have an appearance of deep understanding to so many, but in reality it is quite shallow, and unable to produce lasting fruit of any significance. <BR/>However, there are exceptions to the rule, but they should be rare, I would think. <BR/>God has given us brains to use. We need to appreciate our intelligence as a gift from God.<BR/><BR/>The Lord is good and gracious.
