Pastor John,
Today’s Pearl spoken by Preacher Clark long ago is right in line with what you spoke on during our last reading of Acts. Paul was free to observe or not observe feasts and holy days. And to say circumcision counts for nothing and you have fallen from grace to be circumcised and then turn around and circumcise Timothy.
Are we free enough to be water baptized if that’s what the spirit is leading us to do in a certain situation or are we too superstitious and bound up that we could not do it?
“Peter, Don’t go to the Gentiles!” But then, later, “Peter, go to a Gentile!”
We really have to have a connection with God to feel what he wants us to do today. And not just what he said before in the past. Because it may be something different.
Richard
