Don't you think you're grasping at the wind, Michael? This seems to be another relatively frivolous mental exercise. |
Michael,
This thread is typical of your activities on the PB, especially the threads you start. It is frivolous, a near complete waste of time and strains at gnats. It is bad enough that you waste your own time on such nonsense, trying to show how "well-read" or "precise" you are, but you continually draw others astray, and (specifically in other threads) seek to bind the conscience of believers that you should not.
You should cease from this kind of unproductive, grant straining, useless mental exercise behavior. Instead, you should spend more time in prayer, memorizing Scripture, and supporting your family.
I would be ashamed of my ministry if it was marked by an emphasis on the kinds of questions and issues that you continually raise and ask.
I hope that a moderator closes this useless thread quickly, and that the issue is not revisited.
