Emile,
<< . A mere intellectual approach to the Word produces error and death.>>
This gives me an understanding of where you are coming from. I understand that there is grace in our errors and not death. Jesus used truth with grace, grace is everywhere especially for those that do not know Him yet. His patience is endless compared to ours. If we are fearfull of getting death for errors we will condemn everyone at some point for all have fallen short of the glory of God and deserve death, but He desires for all to have everlasting life and will see it through for each person that will be saved. I trust His healing and saving power and believe praying for people I think might be in error is the best approach. One thing I also do in His presence is ask Him to show me my errors as well. If we go to Him to show others how right we are then we are the Pharisee in the parable that thanked God for not making him like those sinners. I have found the fullness of joy in His presence that has sustained me from some very difficult situations and encourage everyone to seek His presence.
One other thing I don't think it was only a hope in the OT I see that they knew Him and loved Him as we do and hoped for His coming as we hope for His return for us as He sealed us with His Holy Spirit for evidence of that promise.
I am not discrediting the New Testament for I cherish every word my Master spoke and the direction of the Church. It is my understanding that many desire to see a very large part of Gods Word as dead. I am defending Gods Word and character not bringing it down. But Emile if I am in error I trust totally in His Mercy that endures forever to cover me and that brings me into His presence and joy.
With the Love of Jesus,
Nancy
