Hall is going to hell. You may come to regret those words. I certainly hope you do.There was a time when some Christians may have said something similar. Raiding churches, perhaps killing Christians. The temptation certainly existed for Christians to say something almost identical to what you said: Saul is going to Hell. But God radically changed him and the one who raided churches ended up writing a sizable portion of the New Testament. Is Hall in sin? Yes, most certainly he is. I see no reason to suspect that he is a genuine Christian. But my God is strong enough to take even him and make him a beloved son of the Father. If He does, you will apologize in glory. I sincerely hope you do. |

"When this child becomes a man, he will have met the first criteria..."How do you know he is not a man? Men younger than 19 have led soldiers into battle, have jumped in the way of bullets, have sacrificed. One certainly can be a man at 19. Do you know this person? What knowledge do you have that tells you he's not a man? Also, I disagree that Paul's statement should be taken as a strict commandment that must be enforced in every case.
I think he was trying to weed out people with polygamous intentions, and people who have divorced, ie people who don't hold marriage very high. Otherwise, in 1 Corinthians 7, he essentially says that his desire would be that everyone is disqualified for the pastorate. By refusing unmarried people for the pastorate, the Apostle Paul himself cannot be a pastor. More importantly, the Shepherd Himself, our Lord Christ Jesus, is disqualified to shepherd a flock! |
