Family of God: [Church_of_Christ] Re: Can you guess?

ED wrote: Greetings Beth, ED here

It is the job of the Supreme Court to insure that laws written and
actions taken are in harmony with the constitution of the land. Do you
suppose they pay any attention as to how the previous rulings have been
made? Why? Is there anything to learn? Did America just drop out of the
sky yesterday with no history and no precedents; no past? Does it make a
difference? It makes no difference if one does not care whether the
judges get it right or not. But it makes a tremendous difference if the
judges are going to understand what was intended by the constitution.

Hi ED,

God is not the Supreme Court of the United States. God always knows what he says and what he means. He will not judge from precedents created by fallible men.

That was the problem with the Jews at the time of Christ, they were obeying traditions handed down from Rabbi so and so and added to by Rabbi so and so until the people had no idea what God had said.

Norman: God's is the judge and He does not judge by the constitution of fallible man. Fallible cannot judge fairly by their constitution. Laws that are in existence are sometimes judged unconstitutional by other fallible men.

God is his own interpreter and does not need a group of fallible men to interpret for him.

Thanks,

Norman
