Yeah, it always good to learn how to say more, with less... I could ask you the same about your many words...
Yet, God's Word says a lot. Jesus says a lot.
You said:He didn't... really...? Is not all of it in his book...?
I was referring to the Pharisees at that time and not believers today. Jesus did not reveal all truth to the PHARISEES clearly. He did not pick them up by the throat with an invisible hand and say, "Listen to me, I am God." Jesus told them, "Ye are gods." as a means of deflection to protect His mission.
You said:Jesus never used a "play on words", Just different approaches and "literary techniques", at the most, maybe, and never used it to deliberately withhold or hide the truth from someone, or to manipulate...? In order to...? What...?
So are you saying that Jesus did not mean to say that He was God to the pharisees and that He was exclusively saying that He was a King only to them in that instance?
You said:What were you thinking by not bringing it up when he said it...?
My thoughts at that time was not to hold anything back from him in regards to Paul because he already mentioned Paul in regards to faith, hope, and love. He mentioned BOTH Paul and James as saying that they referenced faith, hope, and love. So I did not need to correct him in regards to Paul saying that. He got that part right. The part he got wrong was that he said James talked about faith, hope, and love together.
You said:What? I didn't confuse James for Paul, look...?
You corrected me in the fact that Paul said those words when I was talking about James. Please go back and read what I wrote. Nowhere did I reference Paul. I was talking about James. Then you came in and tried to act like I was talking about Paul when I was not talking about Paul.
You said:This is pointless, I'm not gonna explain myself, you've got a brain after all, maybe one day you'll try it on and start using it maybe...? (sorry)
I can say the same to you, but insults are not becoming of the saints.
You said:God Bless!
May God bless you, as well.
I hope you see where I am coming from instead of taking everything that I have said the wrong way.
