  • G on Ecclesiasticus 9 - 11 years ago
    15 "Let thy talk be with the wise, and all thy communication in the law of the most High."

    Friend,though I agree that this book and chapter speak to our lives today as it then. And I believe that it is the inspired Word of God.
    I do not percieve or understand in any sense it speaks of disease rather than morality. Espcially, it doesn't name a disease or say that we will be diseased by doing those things warned about.
    I have a feeling the same things were said about syphilis in its advent.
    My concern is when we can attribute things through our own revelation to scripture, because of what we read, that may not mean that as literally stated in the scripture.
    In this instance,though I believe you are genuine,the chapter does not even allude to what you state.
    I hope your view isn't that of a wrathful God who punishes and destroys as in the Old Testament. That same God sent Jesus in grace mercy and love to enable Him to be with us.
