60IN60 Day 26 - Fri Sept 27

It's Day 26 and we're in John 8.

Where God Spoke To Me:

- Verse 31 - This is what God expects of us. Obeying His teaching is not optional for a believer. 

Help:

- Verse 6 - What did He write? We don't know. One of the more interesting suggestions is that He was writing the sins of the men holding the rocks.
- Verses 58-59 - By using the phrase "I am," Jesus was equating Himself with God.

Your Questions and Comments:

- "I wonder about the word slavery. In a broad sense, the term may be broadly interpreted as having an obligation to fulfill. That may be a harsh way of thinking given history. On another level, I have been fascinated with reading 1 Timothy. It has been the most readable section so far in the Bible. I can understand, and yes interpret in our time the messages herein. Great clarity." - The most important thing to know about that reference in 1 Timothy is that the slavery back in that day was more like an indentured servitude that was for a limited amount of time. The racially-based, permanent slavery of the American South in the early part of our history is something completely different and not in any way morally defensible.
