We should search the Scriptures and we cannot expect the Lord to communicate His mind to us, unless we do so, prayerfully.

Would likely be my attitude also.

Psalm 119.105; John 17.17, etc., would indeed have us take a very high view of searching God's Word in order to know His way more fully.

2 Corinthians 10.5, indeed. :)

Here are some good principles from Romans 14: "Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him. 4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be...

The context of those verses quoted is fornication. I would be hard pressed to tell a young lady (such as my wife and I talked to) with a Bible verse on her wrist area - likely gotten for witness purposes - that she is therefore a fornicator.

I'm referring to a physical event; the Scriptural return of the bodily risen Redeemer.

And an active pursuit of this involves exercise in things from Scripture such as Philippians 4.8 describes; "think on these things".

Great verses there; and Ephesians 4 also stresses the great importance of truth and doctrine for those who stand and grow into their glorious Head, and are not 'tossed to and fro'.

I would first refer to Romans 14, and then address such topics in terms of what Romans 14 says.

1 Corinthians 11.26 also, applying specifically to the church.

It's not called a nose ring thread :) (There was some discussion of piercing, so it was more relevant there on the other thread...)

Plenty of verses in the New Testament about the Three Persons of the Godhead: Matthew 28; Romans 8; John's Gospel, especially chapters 13 - 17; John's First Epistle, etc.

When it comes to many things, it is inevitable that Christians may prayerfully come to their own conclusions about a whole host of matters which may not be the same as what other Christians may prefer or conclude. Romans 14 - the chapter on Christian liberty - would strongly imply that this is...

(Replied already on a thread about piercing...)

(This thread is more relevant to your post.) I don't think I recently raised nose rings, but when someone else did, I think I may have referred to Genesis where the unnamed servant of Isaac gave Rebekah a nose ring as a token of the pledge of the union; and in Ezekiel 16.12 the Lord Himself...

(I'll reply to your post on the other thread which is more topical.)

Indeed. (My ref.s for the previous post would be: Hebrews 7.12; Hebrews 7.19.)

1 Corinthians 11.26 causes the believer to look up and forward to the future...
