Hi Taken, you haven 'taken' a lot of words to express something. Can you summarize in about three or four sentences?

"I'm sure glad for that 'truth'".

Yes, but I was hoping for explanations of love in relationship to truth.

How would you know, unless it is stated in Scripture? Is that what the theological liberal seminaries are telling you? Source please. Tell me, with all the attempted extra-biblical writings you are trying to bring up, which part of our text, do they contradict? An example will suffice.

The Jewish sects were formed out of their interpretations of Scripture, called the Talmud (not Scripture itself) forming their various traditions not unlike Rome and the East. Their Scriptures existed as one whole which their Scribes meticulously copied and which Jesus and the Apostles quoted...

For starters, (Luk 24:27) And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. (Joh 1:45) Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of...

I like this one as it combines both truth and love for others... 1 Peter 1:22 (KJV) Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: Interestingly though in this case...

Is truth without love actual 'truth'? Equally you can have love without truth, but would that be 'true' love?

So you are saying 'love' needs to come first? How about what I said previous to your post above?... ...in which case they wouldn't be separated by time.

How about..."Love is truth in action and truth is love verbally expressed"? If no responses, I'll take it ya'll agree. :p

My 2¢... Matthew 13:24-30 KJVS [24] Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: [25] But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. [26] But when the blade was sprung up...

Yes, I have a tendency to fly under the radar lol.

Yes, that is why I used the adjective 'some' in the Thread's title, as it is not an exhaustive list...others can add to it. :)

The central theme of Scripture is redemption from mankind’s sin through God’s Son. All Scripture is inspired by God and is sufficient for doctrine and instruction in righteousness. Prayer and Bible reading are like two wings of a bird, over emphasis of one over the other will send you in...

Often, it is assumed that love is the greatest of all but the text says (1Cor 13:13) 'the greatest of these'. What are the 'these' in context of 1Cor 13? They are faith and hope. In this PC/ecumenically charged environment, what gets trampled on and sacrificed on Rodney King's Altar of 'Can't...

Doesn't the 'elders' approach short circuit v.15? It seems verse 15 is the first step regardless of the congregation they belong to.

Like I said, we are wasting each other's time. Have a nice life.

Nope, Ezekiel is speaking of God's future dealings with His Covenant people, the Jews. With Nicodemus, water refers to the Word... James 1:18 KJVS [18] Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures. Ephesians 5:26 KJVS [26] That...

Why the stark contrast between pre-Vatican II and post ?

Wrong wrong wrong, that's what happens when you put Tradition above God's Word... John 1:11-13 NASB [11] He came to His own, and those who were His own did not receive Him. [12] But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His...
