I guess wont get a straight answer from you,I have a ? when you study and read the Bible do you take the readings as “gospel truth” or did you everythink those verses might mean something else?After all they were written almost 2000 years ago and went through many translations.Dont get me wrong I do read and believe what the Bible says but the Apostle’s wrote the books by memory and I think they wrote what they thought Jesus meant.For instance 1 John may be dated toward the end of the first century.
