Thanks Tibby.  Must not be important to most Christians.

What a shame.  Wonder why we have so many denominations...

Hey there,

I am curious about context when quoting Bible verses and developing doctrine.  Example:

Eph 5:21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.

This verse is used to teach that husbands and wives should mutually submit to each other.  Is the context of this verse important or should Christians simply stand on the correctness of one phrase from an epistle?

Thanks

From Ollie:

1 Corinthians 15:3.  For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

For the individual sins of the church at Corinth.

How refreshing to see context in the quoting of the Bible!  God Bless you Ollie!

No semantics.  Did He die and take away the sin of those who ultimately don't believe in Him?

Hey there,

I am interested in seeing views concerning the death of Christ, whether they agree or not with my own.

Question:  Christ died on the cross.  For whom did he die?

Please feek free to "speak your mind" or quote scripture.

Thanks
