That's exactly right, brother. The same kind that curdles in your stomach the moment it's consumed.

What have I told you about using these tiny emojis. 

You know what, Brother ChickenCoop? I was just thinking about the thread here. Suddenly, stark raving fear took over my heart! Umm, is someone still ranting about certain people (me) getting off topic again? Oh. I'm so worried (not) about that. Is it still okay? You see, I had to go for the block, or resort to going into necessary rebuking for one particular person's immature issues about that. He was unfairly accusing me of it but he doing the very same thing! Really though, he's just an overly articulate empty bag full of hot expended carbon dioxide.

Right, just wasting his spit! And he must have been extremely insecure or something. Because he was acting like some control freak with a nazist superiority hitlerist complex. Uh-oh. Well, now what? I did block him again for being so mean to me. Being mean to an old man like me is considered Senior Abuse in America. And that's hardly fair. It's illegal too! Wait... I'll bring back my pet talking Stegosaurus, Spike to protect me. That should work! 

Don't be mean to The Beaumeister!

Time again for a very important message:

I love it when people agree with me because that means more people are correct. 

                    

That't the most relevant and important message I've heard all day.

Gonna have to disagree with "Some of what he said does not apply to our lives in this day and age."

If it was just Paul or Peter or James.. I would agree. Its the holy spirit. We can say the same about Jesus when He walked the earth. There were no Christians.. no Church. He was talking to Israel. Yet when you read it.. it comes alive. He shows you who to apply it to now.

 

Letters from the apostles were passed from church to church as a custom.  This was even done by the churches in Turkey that were addressed in the Revelation of Jesus Christ.  Most of the letters have universal appeal.  Something of them can apply to most of us at some time in our lives and throughout the ages.  It is, after all, God the Holy Spirit Who applies the truth to our lives, who guides us with His word.  

When women are told to keep quiet in church, there are some that I would like to gag from the moment they enter a church, and to check their cell phones at the door as well.  They have a bit of rebelliousness in them that keeps them from truly paying attention and gettin the most from the teaching.  It doesn't bother me that they aren't redeeming the time, it is that those near them are being distracted so badly that they aren't learning either.  It is evident by how annoyed they get by her interruptions.

God would have needed to write billions upon billions of pages to speak to each generation individually

 

 God does not even have to write to "speak" individually to His own. For He is within each via the Holy Spirit who is God.

Plus the writings considered to be inspired by God do  instruct as well today as  each did when first written. Whether it be about money  trust faith sex  it all is perfect instruction  today  as it has been all along. The Holy Spirit  does indeed make sense  of it for those that do seek to make sense and be guided and instructed.

God and God's word is not an abstract, it is a very firm exacting command when shared with the hearer of it as such  with/by the Holy Spirit enlightening as to the proper application for each individual.

Never said there wasn't meat. Asked that you answer the questions and comments put to you. Blaming your failure on others is gaslighting. 

Bad form.

Spiritual eyes recognize the avoidance for what it is: work of flesh. Just answer their questions and let the conversation continue. Don't be the cul de sac. Or at least be forthcoming enough to say either "I don't know," or "I've lost interest." Scapegoating and gaslighting? bad form. 

Study, research, rightly divided the word widows

Who were enlisted into the  ministry as widows in deed were to be the the wife  of one husband 

This same understanding and meaning is alluded to in the husband of one wife for the elders in ministry.

vic66. Look, bro. There are plenty of theological terms in which we as modern day Christians understand and comprehend correct doctrinal issues. Are you coming back with that reeking erroneous and odorous "onenss" dogmatic nonsense again? It reeks like flies on stink! How many times do we have to remind you that we don't  go for that here? Don't you get it?

Agreed. I reread vic’s Post which has alot of content from several different commentaries but I guess I don’t have the spiritual eyes mentioned to see the ‘entire lifetime ‘ issue that keeps getting brought up. Unless scripture specifically states that then I reject that notion as a interpretation of scripture and not inspired scripture. 

The reason I responded to this subject is because I had to leave my home church of 32 years because my pastor decided to divorce his wife to marry another woman. Which is forbidden by Jesus Himself. No commentary required. No infidelity happened he just wanted someone else. So I chose to honor the scripture and separated from all my friends and step out of my eldership at that church. It was heart breaking. So I have made hard decisions regarding this subject. If his wife divorced him with out his agreement your interpretation would forbidden him from remarrying and living the rest of his life alone. That is not the Spirit of scriptures it is legalism. 

Yes bull's eye you are correct!

The Jesus allows for only one living spouse and the marriage covenant is only dissolved at death.

For those in the pew but those in the ministry, elders pastors, overseers, bishops and deacons a higher set of rulers are laid and that is what this thread is covering.

and the Pharisees came to him, and asked him is it lawful for a man to put away is wife? Tempting him and he answered and said unto them, what did did Moses command you?

And they said Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away. And Jesus answered and said unto them, for the hardness of Your heart he wrote you this precept but from the beginning of creation God made them male and female.

For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife; and they twain shall become one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. 

And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter. And he said unto them whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another committeth adultery against her, And if a woman shall put away her husband and married to another, she committeth adultery.

Romans7:2-3

For the woman who has a husband I bound by the law to her husband as long as he lives. But if the husband be dies, she is released from the law of her husband.

3)So then if while her husband lives, she marries

Another man, she will be called an aduleress;but if her husband dies, she is free from the law, so that she is no aduleress, though she has married another man.

The exception clause written in Matthew 5 and Matthew 19 is writen to the Jews which had a law which allowed for separation if the husband

Deut22:13-29

at the commsumation of the  married/ married bed found no token of virginity. He could go to the Elders of the city and complain that he took he new wife as a virgin yet found no token of her virginity. If the thing was found to be true she was taken to a her fathers house and stoned to death.

With Jews a marriage  covenant was a extremely  serious thing especially for the woman . Agreement to marry some one could only be broken off if fornication could be proven before or on the actual commsumation night.Deut 22:13-29, luke2:5

 

if a man carried on to live with his wife after commsumation he could put a away. If later in life she committed adultery this was punishable by death sentence, stoning to death not divorce. 

Wife of one husband  is the same as husband of one wife. Thats why paul wrote to reject younger widows because  when they  became wanton they will want to
