So, so agree!
A precept can be a big over arching truth right? I am asking because I do not know from a scriptural perspective.
Then one needs the correct big picture (precept) and then build on this.

you know, I once quit the forum beause of 2 very nasty people who were saying things that were not only not true, but one said I had demons and did I like playing with them...
now you can't beat that. that person left and the other hardly posts anymore
you cannot let people discourage you from posting here. obviously I came back
I totally understood what you wrote and there was no reason for anyone to dismantle it
the scripture you posted is actually a negative portion if you understand it in context, but we still learn from what we have learned before so it is not correct to state we do not
I am asking you to just move past it...and do not take it personally or allow yourself to be bullied into withdrawing
I would not say everyone has something positive to offer, but I certainly believe that you do
a creative spirit can be easily injured...more so than others...which is something I understand...
consider your relationship with God...and just move on
you are not alone

I am not taking any sides here
if I did, I would have too much to say
people need to move on
there is zero points to be made at this point and unless someone wants to actually hurt another, it would be best to stop
thank you

Amen you are right let's not hurt one another. We all apologized and let's continue in good cheer.

Hello Stonesoffire
Esau's descendants became Edomites, also known as Idumaeans, and were enemies of Israel. King Herod was such.
In Obadiah, Edom is mentioned twice by name (1:1, 8), however, the focus is on Edom’s destruction as God meted out His judgment on a historically rebellious people. The Edomites would later disappear from history completely. In a longer view we can see this is what will happen at the final judgment at the end of this age, when those who refuse God are destroyed in the lake of fire.
Of interest to me as well is the fact that God said the older would serve the younger, and this is historically true also in the context of Israel serving Christianity, by bringing forth the long-awaited Messiah Who instituted a new and better covenant with the shedding of His righteous blood for the forgiveness of sins, something the law could not accomplish. I see the cursing of the fig tree as highly symbolic of the end of the unfruitful Temple sacrifice era.
I rarely think about the history of the OT after discovering the allegorical meaning of the Hebrew language Magenta. Something that causes some brethren to pull their hair out when I write. But, I find it very interesting about your thought of the fig tree and it’s meaning. Was wondering how you see the connection with the temple sacrifice?
The key as I see it concerning Esau being hated is found in the change of his name to Edom. But, that’s all I’ll say at this time.
. One thing I’ve learned from Missler which soulweaver did bring out, is that truth will be found all through the scripture. One may see a different facet of symbolism than another but if it’s truth, it will be seen elsewhere. And it fits all together in unity.

so how does the Holy Spirit help us as our Teacher?
I firmly (that is to say unshakeably) believe that we must first learn what is written in it's proper context
that, would be called our foundation
after that, God will reveal more to us on a personal basis, that is according to our walk with Him and our ability to comprehend ...
but He will not go beyond what is written because I also believe He has set up safety zones for us, beyond which temptation
would beckon...much like the tree of the knowledge of good and evil
is that getting too esoteric? or too philisophical?
God's word is our anchor in all situations.

It is foolish and not BIBLICAL to disregard the HISTORY and HISTORICITY of the O.T....especially when we are TOLD to pay attention to it!
Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.

soulweaver I am sorry
when someone wants to talk about learning from the word and wants others to chime in, they obvioulsy have a hunger and would like
us all to sit at the table
can you see the opposition to it?
you did not cause this
when I taste something I find really good, I want to share it so that others also can have that experience
how much more with God's word?

I wasn't addressing you Stones
seems it is very easy to take offense in this thread...sadly
I was only trying to steer it back on course
smh
what's up lately? you don't sound like yourself
I thought we had things settled
I was reading this verse today, and I immediately remembered you.
Psalms 49:4 I will incline mine ear to a parable: I will open my dark saying upon the harp. (praise/worship time)
The dark sayings/parables crack open "upon the harp".
There is no doubt in my mind that you are baptized with the Holy Spirit. I consider you to be one of the more spiritually sound members. I certainly appreciate your wise counsel.
It was a conversation gone wrong for a moment, then we apologized and moved on... Thank you for your kind words!
