Kat,

  Thanks for your two posts.  They have cleared up some confusion in my mind.  I guess what I was doing was trying to figure out on MY own effort which it was.  I forgot the Spirit is who will show me.

  Got a question for you Kat, So can a Scripture be pysically interpreted one day and then spritual the next day?  Can they be both another day? 

  Sincerely,




  Anne C. McGuire

Anne that is a very good question. Does Ray have anything on that and if so where might it be?

Hi Anne,

I'm thinking that maybe you can see it physical one day and then spiritual another, if it is in relation to time.
We see things in scripture as only physical one day, before our eyes are opened, and it is a true meaning.
As in keeping the Sabbath, we see it commanded, it is a physical thing we do by going to church.
But on another day, later, our eyes are opened and we see the spiritual, that we are in a sabbath rest all the time,
if Christ is in us.

Heb 4:9  So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God,
v. 10  for whoever has entered God's rest has also rested from his works as God did from his.

So it can be looked at physical one day and spiritual another day, in the life of a believer.
I hope I answered that the way you were implying it  :)

mercy, peace, and love

Kat,

  I like how you said that it could be different one day and change the next day.  I have found out in my life that Scripture means different things with difference circumstances and days.  Now, the basics to not change, just wanted to make it clear.
 

  I am glad that it can be this way, becuase I was concerned as the way that Scripture was speaking to me was changing.  Thanks so much for you reply.  It has helped a great deal.

  Sincerely,



  Anne C. McGuire

Dosen't every single parable tell a physical story with a much more valuable "Spiritual" meaning?
