Also, some teachers lack humility and rather twist Scripture to fit a certain narrative rather than just simply admit they do not know what it means.

I see what you're saying. In my experience with certain denominations and teachings, oversymbolization can occur when someone allows the narrative of the world's truth to shape the narrative of the Bible's truth. And this is simply because it doesn’t feel comfortable to have your belief labeled...

Yea, then that means at any time, we could be a Jacob

Out of curiosity, what made you interested in reading the book of Gad? Ive never heard of it before but after reading one of the Enochs, I've been a bit weary of these types of texts. To make sure I'm not mistaking you, were you saying that God lead you into deciphering which verses were...

Lol, flying chickens that atone for sins. That's the first time I've heard that Thankies and to you as well

😭 His face in the last panel is what made it funny, but man, that stung lol I bet there could be a good cross analysis between the stories of Leah and Rachel vs Hannah and Peninnah. Leah was unfavored by her husband yet favored by God and birthed more parts of the tribes of Israel plus had...

Yea, I believe there is definitely a benefit in reading texts in their original language to get the fullness of the message. If not read in the original language then at least with the cultural context relevant for that time. I just cant wrap my head behind the fact that certain words dont...

YEES! You're the first person Ive seen so far acknowledge this 🥲

This is very true. On top of this, like how the apostles had to rebuke each other, teachers should be accepting of correction. Whether it be from God Himself or from a follower of little status, the teacher's heart should be humble enough to not reject correction. The fear of looking...

That's awesome you cherish the heart in that manner. The attitude is definitely what enhances the beauty. It's like the salt for the appearance. A genuine heart for God gives so much depth and life to one's being. A person's character can either add or take away their beauty
