Re: The Scriptures Are Subjective

Romans 2:6-11,

Quote:
6 [God] will render to every man according to his deeds:
7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:
8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,
9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;
10 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:
11 For there is no respect of persons with God.
Are these verses subjective to one's own culturally (and etc.) understood interpretation?

I don't see how. They are clear (right, Sean?) and are pretty self-evident, straight-forward, without wiggle room.

The only subjectivity present is the kind brought into the Word (called eisogesis) rallied forth by a carnal mind that doesn't want to/refuses to believe what has been penned.

So many people, as Simon Peter warned, will wrest the words of Paul to their own destruction, rather than simply agreeing that what Paul has written is the commandment of the Lord.

Romans 2:6-11
King James Version (KJV)
6 Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

10 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:

11 For there is no respect of persons with God.




We will die, whether we are good or evil. It is a homecoming for the righteous but a disaster for the wicked. This is the crystal clear truth for all to realize.
