Hi J, I am SO glad you told me that! Here I thought you were trying to find reconciliation by asking me for my opinion of these scriptures. Oh boy, I feel kind of dumb....ha ha ha!!! My friend, I am still going to look these things up and continue a study in this area, indeed I have studied it fairly well at differant times in my life. I think you HAVE given me some things to look up I wasn't aware of, though, so I am still going to carry on with it. But there is another thing that has been more than enough to convince me that I am on the right path. That is the overwelming evidence of His presence in my life and in the lives of many of my brothers right here at CBLF! I see His love and guidance in your life. I see it in many lives represented here. I see it in the form of the "fruit of the Spirit" as explained in the book of Galations, I believe. Where there is love, there is Christ. When that love is of the kind and quality that is both honest and unselfish in nature, it is very much of God. I see that here! I do not think I am being overly dramatic about this, either. I have been a part of this forum since it's beginning and I have seen some pretty amazing things happen in the lives of Boylovers who have found us. I can say this about you, J, as a very good example. I don't mean it to say this to stroke your ego but to give glory to our Father who loves us completely! Let Him do His own good work for your ego, and mine as well...that's the best way! Well, anyway, like I said, I will continue the study because it really is a good one with good and valid information. However, there are at least two on-going studies for me right now that I tend to pay more attention to. One is my identity in Christ, who I am (or WE are) as Christians. And right now the other is this study in comparring our history with that of A.A. and finding out how to translate the truths they have learned about themselves and society to our own struggle as a people trying to live in society. God Bless you J! I am so glad you are here and have decided to contribute to our Forum. That has helped my faith as well! Love in Christ Jesus, Chris |
