I’m grateful for the grace you’ve shown me in our interactions, friend.
In response I would just say in meekness that New Covenant folks that are pro-polygyny, as well as folks who identify as Reformed and Creedal do, in fact, exist. As do...
Not necessarily, but Jesus pointed them all back to the two foundational laws. That’s the point of a sermon. It distills large areas of scripture into themes or major points.

Love neighbor
Eye for eye wasn’t about retribution or anger...
In context, Jesus exposed the wickedness of the Pharisees who were twisting the Scriptures to justify their sin. Adultery begins in the heart with lusting/coveting (same Greek word) after a married woman. A man sending his wife away without a...
I was mostly thinking of where the Lord speaks along the lines of “ye have heard it said … but I say unto you,” in Matthew 5 as an example. This sort of clarification afforded by the Lawgiver.

We recently had a lion grab a mature 11 year old ewe in broad daylight while the kids were out with the sheep grazing them. She survived. The lion was hunted successfully. They found when he missed out on the meal of mutton, he killed and ate a...
You’ve endured some heavy things, Sister. I grieve with you just reading this. Our family has our own set of wounds from church folk, some more fresh than others. But it is good to not forsake the assembling of saints together, all the more as we...

Hubby was out with dogs less than 2 miles from home and found bones burried in a blanket a very shallow wash. He reported it and they were found to be from an elderly woman. We have no idea why they were there....but whatever family she might...
