It would certainly take quite a long time to respond to that lot and would require MUCH time. Do you have Bible commentaries and a concordance? if not their is some free and legal software downloads at e-sword.net (sorry i havent reached the golden 15 post which allows me to use URL,s) There is a wealth of free commentaries and bible software which should set you on your way |

Blessings Snowy,
Have you tried reading the scriptures in another version besides the King James? Maybe the translation is causing an issue. I know that I love the KJ for it's poetic license but for study I have to have a more modern translation since words have changed meanings since the KJ was written. Do you own a paralle Bible? If not this online one from Bible Gateway is pretty good. http://www.biblegateway.com/cgi-bin/bible

Also, Shekinah has a good point. Read more than one translation. 3 is a good number to keep handy. |

Reps: 10 (power: 0) | | | Snowy I'll try to give you some brief opinions that hopefully will help you.Jesus was sent by God to present a new message that updated and modified some old testament teachings due to the increased social sophistication of the world's population.I do not believe that Christians have to follow any old testament teachings unless they are repeated or referred to in the new testament.So I'll briefly comment on the new testament verses you listed.
STAY CLOSE TO JESUS!
