So I recently read something that I'm uncertain about but have been telling poeple about - with their permission to talk about religion - What I read was that in Proverbs was this - "Let the discerning get guidance" - Does that mean that we get to pick and choose what we believe in The Holy Bible???
Guidance in life. Learn from life what is the same and what is different. Discernment is not belief but recognition.
with god you are free to choose , without god you are also free . with god , discernment is patient contemplation . without god , i pray choosing is likewisely respectful .
I think it means if you use a discerning mind towards your issues and think and meditate on it you will be able to draw wisdom from it.... here you go maybe this can help http://bible.cc/proverbs/1-5.htm
I'm not sure why you would think that it would mean that "we get to pick and choose what we believe in The Holy Bible". To me it simply means that a person of discernment will seek out guidance. A person of discernment would know that it does not belong to man to direct his own step and thus would diligently search all of God's Word for guidance in his life.
Dear Lord! I know for a fact miracles can happen...because I absolutely agree with everything OWB said ^, from the 1st sentence to the last. :2thumbsup: :sunny:
