What a tricky verse
I swear the one thing I learn about and its disregarded. Does no one care about this verse?
curse*
The verse seems to be dealing with a Christian's personal interpretation of Scripture. I think what Paul was saying can be also put in the context of a [fictional] verse reading "eat well to glorify God". One might take that as be vegetarian, one might take that as eat whatever you want in moderation. Both are following God's Word, just in different manners.
It is not saying to give pardon to all interpretations.
If someone were to eat poorly purposefully, if the Bible were to command health, that would not be permissible.
Those were man made headings
Paul didn't have any headings.
Moving on.
@corny🌽🌽 the verse reads to me just as don’t criticize for differences in interpretation of faith.
I know
And that's what I said
Interpret what is set in stone however you please, but make sure you follow it
👌
@Osha19 In the context of your verse, that relates to taking what is out of stone out of context and manipulating it. The Bible is not hard to understand, as you also said, as it was preached to poor men and dregs, not rich men and kings. It was universal and laconic. It is straightforward. So if anyone were to take these simple teachings and not follow them or add to them unnecessarily, damnation is invoked.
Such as thinking Matthew 16:18 establishes episcopalism

There is deeper meaning to a lot of the verses. And books for that matter. it has taken years for people to properly understand Revelations. and we don't even understand it in its entireity
Meh Revelations probably isn't even canonical
nvrm.. I have school work to do. I've already spent an hour on this and I do want to have some freetime tonight.. have a good one.
