[Church_of_Christ] Re: Spiritual gifts
Greetings Clay, ED
Have you ever read either of the Campbells? I mean their actual
writings, not what someone else says they said. I have. I continue to do
so and every time I do I am impressed and often I learn something I
didn't know before. I know you have said you read nothing but the Bible;
that anything else is "uninspired man" (however, I did see where you
quoted from some book in another post on another subject - maybe you are
rethinking you position); that you won't even consider reading what
someone else writes, so probably I have an answer to my question.
