No Harm No Foul


Grace, mercy, and truth will be with you from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. 2 John 3 (NKJV)

In the precious and beautiful name of Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings.

While listening to the local “Christian” radio station I heard, referring to the Apostle Paul, “Paul was quoting from his Greek New Testament.”  Let me emphasize, “Paul was quoting from his Greek New Testament.”  The speaker on the radio is a follower of the Anthanasian Creed. 

Even if the speaker meant to say Paul was quoting from the Septuagint, a Greek translation of the Hebrew Scriptures “Old Testament,” written a hundred plus years before Paul’s birth mind you, Paul would be repeating something that he said in his writings, which certainly made their way into the New Testament.  Praise be to God! 

We’re all going to say things that we’d just as soon forget.  What he said was wrong but doesn’t affect one’s salvation.  I say no harm no foul, as long as someone’s not telling me I have to believe something to be saved.  The Anthanasian Creed, “the Greek New Testament” that Paul supposedly quoted from or the Septuagint, are not something one has to believe to be saved.  If someone should try to convince me of it being otherwise, I will not agree to disagree.  The [Bible] is more than sufficient enough as is, and that’s all I need to know.

God bless.
