Re: Faith: How Far Is Too Far?
Like I said, if we can't agree on the rules then trying to discuss authorial intent is tough to accomplish in any sort of cogent way. However, I do applaud you for your obvious passion for the kingdom and I thank God for his obvious blessings on you. I am a man of means as well but have found my wealth to be a burden rather than a blessing and am actively trying to divest myself of my stuff including my Benz and my Jag. As soon as this durned housing market recovers I'm going to sell my properties and happily join the ranks of the downwardly mobile. I just find material wealth to be a drag on my life and not a blessing because I have come to the conclusion that it is worth nothing. Even so, while I don't agree with your hermeneutics I do agree in principle with your overall vision and am thankful that you have chosen to use your wealth to help people rather than for more selfish purposes. That's a good thing.
