I drink to the word, raising
a word or a shining cup

Words give glass quality to
glass, blood to blood,
and life to life itself.

@BrimstonedLLC Me and Grok have been having a come to Jesus talk

[shMinn @AshMinnehan]

@PeacheswuzHere Are you actually curious?

[shMinn @AshMinnehan]

@BrimstonedLLC @Bar_tolmi Might simply mean let go already I'm not leaving yet

[shMinn @AshMinnehan]

@PeacheswuzHere Are these names for different entities or the same entity?

[shMinn @AshMinnehan]

@PeacheswuzHere @jim_dongo A lot of things don't make sense when taken literally

[shMinn @AshMinnehan]

@BrimstonedLLC @fros_t_ie Ever consider Jesus' direct quote ends after his question and the rest is John's?

Why would Jesus explain heavenly things immediately after saying how will you believe if I talk about heavenly things?

[shMinn @AshMinnehan]

@BrimstonedLLC @joshwhitlatch He asks why?
Why wouldn't you?

@jjdjbtl Delusional Paul

@heliec574 OT requires 2 witnesses

@ZoneChaos @rabbriansamuel Paul cannot give squat

[shMinn @AshMinnehan]

@CovenantReform2 @highestintell @EliAfriatISR Is Ephesus in Asia? If so, all Asia rejected him.

@navigatinglies Quantity trumps quality?

@PeacheswuzHere @MinisterMartyr @anvilofyahweh What if there was a verse that supported unity

[shMinn @AshMinnehan]

@DerickMcAfee @rabbriansamuel Even with Luke 17:3 as baseline, that leaves 3 options
1. Peter did not repent.
2. Peter repented but Paul did not forgive.
3. Paul omitted details.
If 1, Paul's judgement was unilateral and rejected. If 2, Paul disobeyed Jesus. If 3, relevant evidence was withheld.

[shMinn @AshMinnehan]

@DerickMcAfee @rabbriansamuel Your position requires me to assume
1. One witness is sufficient.
2. Paul judged Peter righteously.
3. Paul corrected Peter privately.
4. Peter caused Barnabas' withdrawal.
5. Jesus' general saying in Luke overrides specific private protocol in Matthew.

[shMinn @AshMinnehan]

@DerickMcAfee @rabbriansamuel you say
Claim 1: criticism valid IF Paul's claim is true
Claim 2: rebuking what one sees is always valid
Questions
1. Is it true? If so, how have you determined it to be true? 2. What is the scriptural basis to support rebuking what one sees is always valid?

[shMinn @AshMinnehan]

@DerickMcAfee @rabbriansamuel Here are three passages to consider.

A. Jesus on correcting brothers: Matt 18:15-17
B. Paul on correcting brothers: Gal 6:1
C. Paul on how he treats Jews: 1 Cor 9:20

How did Paul model A and B toward Peter?
How did Paul determine Peter's intent is not C?
