"Everything is permissible"—

<< < (2/2)

Chris R:

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.[1Cor 10:23]

Whats Paul talking about?

Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, [that] eat, asking no question for conscience sake:

 1Cr 10:26  For the earth [is] the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.


 1Cr 10:27  If any of them that believe not bid you [to a feast], and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake.


 1Cr 10:28  But if any man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth [is] the Lord's, and the fulness thereof:


A thought to ponder, to some it is unclean to eat meats, to others it is not, To Paul, ALL things are lawful, but to others, all things were not. WHY>> Rom 14:14 tells us.

I KNOW [Paul] and am pursuaded  by the Lord Jesus Christ, that [there is] nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him [it is] unclean. [Rom 14:14]

jER:
…but the fearful…unbelieving…abominable… murders…sexually immoral…sorcerers…idolaters…and all liars,
 shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. (Revelation 21:8 )

The "Second Death" is the dying to, or death of sin – for the fleshly mind is enmity against God!

"…but he himself shall be saved, yet so as by fire."

In His Grace…
