Christopher GeorgeLocation: New Market, VA, USAI am a dabbling singer/songwriter. I play guitar, piano, mandolin, and upright bass. Though I enjoy fairly limited influence from the very wide world of genres and talent, I am enjoying the process of reducing this limitation. I also enjoy working in the studio, recording and encouraging the artistic ventures of other artists. |

What are you referring to?
christopher says:
And account that the long-suffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction. -- II Peter 3:15-16 LKV
It sounds to me like Peter was warning folks that some of Paul's writtings were being misused.
adam says:
Just curious if there was something specific in Paul's writings you were refering to. A specific subject.
christopher says:
No, I just thought it was interesting to realize that Peter thought Paul's writings were sometimes difficult to understand. I know there are plenty of folks today (myself included) who agree.
In a sense, we can take this as a warning when studying the writings of Paul.
