[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 4818287, member: 63706"] So you only think there is one interpretation when it comes to scriptures containing commands? You didn't make that clear in your original question. I can't deflect from your original deflection, I just tried to get back to the original point. Okie dokie. From where do you get this standard? I don't think sprinkling is baptism either. I agree that it's not anything goes. I only say those things because that is how you come across. If you don't feel the shoe fits, don't wear it. Clearly I'm not the only one who is put off by how you share your faith. And, please, let's not pretend that you haven't been condescending, I only give what I get. You do not come across as someone who is willing to have a good faith conversation about scripture, or even general conversations about issues of faith. You use scripture as a bludgeon to beat people with, so much so that people aren't interested in your views on scripture. I share what I know of scripture, and how that has formed my beliefs. Jesus tells us we are the salt of the earth, salt that has lost its saltiness is worthless. So which is it, are we a preservative, flavorful, both, or something else? Feel free to take all that or leave it. I don't know you as a person, just how you present yourself here. If I have offended you, I apologize. [/QUOTE]
