Thanks for jumping in, PB. I agree with you.
Can you expound upon that a bit, for the sake of those who are following along? Are you saying that we in the Body of Christ can make application from non-Pauline writings, but those writings are not to be treated as doctrine by which we are to live our lives? Can you explain? Take Leviticus, for example. Why do you believe we are not to treat that as doctrine by which we should live?
I'd love that opinion of non-MidActs'ers, too, on the questions I posed earlier.
Thanks!
Okay, I'll try and expound on that. But really, it seems kind of logical to first try and understand WHO something was written to before you try and follow the instructions.
Most times, if you read the salutation, it says this:
Lev.1: 2 Speak unto the children of Israel,
Since Paul's epistles are written to Body, you can find where Paul says that there is neither greek not Jew (i.e. no "children of Israel"), so that would mean that Leviticus was not instructions for the Body.
