       It is my conclusion that PCE is truer to the actual words of
       scripture than the orthodolgically changed words, changed for
       eisegetical reasons with examples as this last few day posting
       contains one or two. Did discussion arise over them? Was I
       challenged over my use of the words all the sons of GOD as
       written and not angels given by interpretation in Job 38:7
       What is different in PCE is the interpretation of the meaning of
       the words, and their intent.

       [quote author=Mr E link=topic=442.msg32184#msg32184
       date=1624463892]  Whenever I hear someone tell me that they've
       held this or that position for some forty years, naturally a red
       flag goes up.  If you don't know anything more today than you
       knew 40 years ago, it's unlikely you'll accept anything new.
       [/quote] New?  [font=Verdana]What new doctrine are you trying to
       teach me??? I haven't seen it yet so, ummmm. . .[/font]
       You don't know me well enough for this yet. I did not tell the
       whole story because you scolded me for dumping too much into one
       post.
       8 or 9 years ago I started to engage people on Christian forums.
       The atheists worked me over pretty good, forcing me to seek the
       Spirit on the best probable understanding of reality that they
       could understand even if they could not accept it. This
       understanding I bounced off the Christian community and of
       course hit the stone wall of long held traditions and orthodox
       belief held for hundreds of years, not just 40.
       The pot is speaking out of turn, as my understanding has
       deepened greatly from the Christian input over these last 8
       years.
       [/quote]
       Ted, you are right in saying we don't know each other well.  -
       And I happen to agree with your experience concerning Christians
       who think all of their own ideas are settled science... ahem...
       theology.  Most often with all kinds of scriptures to "imply"
       things that they insist are stated.  So I do understand both
       your frustration and reluctance or hesitation to engage folks.
       You'll find me more likely to listen than some.  I actually
       think you are kind of on the right track, by degrees.

       Genesis 2  ESV
       (1)  Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the
       host of them.
       (2)  And on the seventh day God finished his work that he had
       done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work that he
       had done.
       (3)  So God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on
       it God rested from all his work that he had done in creation.
       The above is scripture that has been used to support the PCE
       theology to imply that every host of heaven and earth already
       existed by the 7th day.
       This one also is used:
       Hebrews 7  ESV
       (9)  One might even say that Levi himself, who receives tithes,
       paid tithes through Abraham,
       (10)  for he was still in the loins of his ancestor when
       Melchizedek met him.
       Implying that Levi existed before he was born and therefore he
       also gave tithes to Melchiedek because he was already a part of
       (so to speak) of Abraham when the tithes were given.

       This guy Rudolf Steiner with his Anthroposophy, that I've been
       listening to talks about existence before creation yet he also
       talks about multiple earthly lives and lives between death and
       new life. I try to stay open minded as I don't just believe
       anything presented but I try to "mine" the information for
       valuable insight. I have the time to do this and I thank God.
       He also talks very much about Christ and those who oppose Him,
       with detailed explanations for Christ's death at Golgotha. I
       lose interest during certain parts of the lectures but I'm
       enjoying the stimulation and the creative/intuitive juices it
       stirs in me. I just find it fascinating that this guy was
       speaking exactly 100 years ago.

       That's a good way to approach it PJ.  Open minded, but with eyes
       wide open.  I once had a mentor tell me-  "Focus on good
       things... read and learn things of value.  There isn't enough
       time in a day for "everything" so you have to be choosey and
       choose good things."
       That stuck with me.  He once said-- don't waste your time on
       silly things.  Don't read things to simply entertain yourself.
       Learn something from everything and you can.... but-- it's like
       digging through a trash can looking for something good to eat.
       You 'might' find something, but why bother?  Go to a grocery
       store instead-- they are full of good things.  A library is a
       grocery store for your head.
       The Bereans were commended for searching the scriptures to see
       if the things they were being told- 'were true.'  It's a method
       few employ when confronted with a new idea.  Most of us
       automatically think-- 'well that can't be true' because it
       differs from what I already believe.  -But what if you
       approached new ideas like the Bereans?  What if?
       I think that's what they were commended for.  They took a 'what
       if it's true?' stance (instead of a buffalo).

       While I will agree with you to some extent, Interpretation using
       the meaning of words as spoken by the interpreter is not the
       meaning the WORD of GOD gave to us.

       Keep in mind that Levi was a tribe of Israel, a Priesthood

       The point is that it cannot be said of Levi that he gave tithes
       to Melchizedek when Abraham did unless he existed at that time
       (in some form within Abraham).
