proverbs 25
Ninny:
Chill, Bible man! Keep seeking, if you're looking for answers you'll find them, if you're knocking the door will open. Don't be offended! Be steadfast and be honest, that works pretty well here! Don't be quick to tuck your tail and run!
Don't wear your feelings on your sleeve, buddy, we have all learned that from Ray Smith! :D
Dignity, integrity, honesty man, men of God possess these traits! ;D
You just heard from one of the finest men on this forum...one of many..
Good sound advice Joe!
Kathy ;)

--- Quote from: bible man on June 10, 2009, 11:08:14 PM ---These are also proverbs of Solomon, which the men of Hezekiah king of Judah copied out.
2 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.
3 The heaven for height, and the earth for depth, and the heart of kings is unsearchable.
4 Take away the dross from the silver, and there shall come forth a vessel for the finer.
5 Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne shall be established in righteousness.
Is there a deeper meaning behind these verses? just wondering if anybody saw something i missed.

Hello Bible Man,
There is a spiritual truth behind all the physical 'types' or 'shadows' in scripture...that truth is that God, through Christ, is creating humanity in His image.
Every symbol, shadow, type, example, etc ultimately points to this truth...there's no getting around it and everything you read in scripture, ultimately, points to it. If this truth is hard to understand (not just for you, for anyone), I would highly recommend (1) praying in all humility and earnestly to God for understanding (2) reading Ray papers on the bible-truths.com website (3) reading/listening to Ray's bible study transcripts w/audio and (3) reading Ray's email replies.
Now, with this in mind, would you like to clarify your question or is this the answer you were looking for?
Also, name calling and/or implying a name or connotation to an individual member is against forum rules...if you or anyone feels they are/being slighted in this area, please inform a moderator. But first, you could do what Christ says: "...if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: (why should we do this?) "if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother. Gaining [Gk. 'increase in the faith of Christ'] and edifying before strife and conflict.
Hope this helps,
Marques
