I wanted to simply put this out there. For most of us this is just common sense but to many I hope it intrigues them to study this out.
We can not just pull things from the Bible and use them as we see fit. We can not say well it's in the Bible and it makes sense so it must be so.
We must learn to Rightly Divide The Scriptures.
This means Learning which Covenant they were written under as well as keeping them in context.
Far to many people are taking bits and pieces of Scripture without any understanding and using them to back their thinking. That will always end up in error.
The problem with that is one must use the stripped out scriptures with human reasoning or natural thinking.
This is NO different then any unsaved person reading the Bible and using scripture as they see or understand. It then just becomes any old book and not the Anointed Most Holy Written Word of God.
Just because one is born again does not constitute that they have true understanding of the scriptures and there is way to much of this is what I think going on.
Friends it does not matter what any of us think - it only matters what God is saying.
I hope this will encourage some to learn how to study God's Word.
