Look I heard it in a rap song and I need to bring it up everytime @DrPeper

its aquestion meant to gather more understanding

wtf

ahhahaha

hhahahaa

its pretty obvious why would anyone be against buying slaves

its wrong

yeah more understnding of how big your pocket book can get by profiting off the forced imprisionment of others 😂

i go into jails to minister not to mistreat

you go to jail for having slaves

this is second impressive mental gymnastics ive seen after derek

i share the word of God with inmates who want to know about Jesus

cool

Ironically Christmas Everyday is being the devil's advocate in this situation

thats for that off topic info you already shared

thanks

someone said i mistreat the inmates or something

?

i was redefining my position

we are talking about slaves

you know, the topic of the coversation

slaves seems to be the ongoing theme

it is an example we used

of how the bible can be used to support two contradictory sides

its pretty concerning how your reply to "has a verse telling ppl to buy slaves" was "whats bothers u about buying slaves"

if you use eisogesis without exegesis, yes, you can gather a false idea

so people didnt use the bible to support both sides

my bad, i guess ill just go inform all the history books about slavery in the US to change things

bro, the rabbit hole is pretty deep

sounds the alars =]

alarms

so, you dont see a problem with the bible being used for both sides?

What's esiogesis and exegesis?

your meaning vs intended meaning

eisogesis is like bouncing ideas off verses to gather meaning, exegesis is understanding scripture as it is written and the culture it was written to, and the original meaning

both are important

Both sound flawed

if it can used to justify any position then what makes you think you interpretation of the bible is correct

i believe the way i understand the bible fits exegetically

i will tell you how i feel about things like the authors intended meaning and trying to study that and sticking to it. It doesnt really matter what the author meant to say. All that matters is what people get out of it. If the author did a good enough job then people will get what the author intended. However, everyone is differnt they see things differnt. So if you get something differnt out of it. So what, its your personal views

again, thats a general statement not just aimed at the bible
