Weak defense. God adorned him with the jewels. Why would adorn him something vain and sinful???

Re: Isaiah 3 and jewelry...

Interesting definition of ornaments in Ex 33:


`adiy

OT:5716 `adiy (ad-ee'); from OT:5710 in the sense of trappings; finery; generally an outfit; specifically, a headstall:







Could it be ornaments were more then jewelry? If so, should we be putting off our adorning ties/colorful dress so God may know what to do with us??

God put jewels on Lucifer, which later has a "Not with gold, pearls,..." tied to it. God created humanity, who later sinned. You partake of the former [in the face of clear instructions otherwise], & yet reject the latter...then wanna' talk to ME about "fallacies" ???????????????
You make no sense, RDP!

Our very point was that there is no textual proof to suggest Lucifer's jewels were a violation against God. It is said in a rather complimentarian way, including the description of musical abilities and glory. God creating man who LATER sinned is completely irrevelant. You're trying to stretch an Oprah-sized point onto a Leonardo DiCaprio body

Interpreting Ezekiel has nothing to do with taking the argument back to Timothy or Peter. Ezekiel wrote independently of them (and as you know, we've spent considerable time arguing a contrary position to yours on those references as well). You tried to pot shot this point in a drive-by, shoot-from-the-hip fashion, so let's stick to the Ezekiel passagem (one of many scriptures I listed where jewelry was spoken of positively).

You almost assume Lucifer was in sin when he was described by Ezekiel. Of course, you MUST stretch that point to conform to your later point (I believe you understand the word "eisegesis"). Unfortunately, your case is without any merit.

In the first place, I like your "presumption" concession! Hey, Jeffrey, little lesson here: We do not make our doctrinal stances on "Presumptions" !

Secondly, & for about the 3rd time now, Lucifer was not the temple of God, as we are in the NT. Thirdly [man, you're too easy], beauty is not condemned elsewhere in Scripture as decorative ornamentation is [Deut. 7:25, Is. 3, Ex. 33, I Tim. 2, I Ptr. 3, etc.].

Put your eraser down Jeffrey, I Tim. 2 will still be there in eternity...which you'll be judged by.
Oh please! What self-righteous bologna. What a lame and illogical rebuttal. "My argument and my opinion only make sense to those who are spiritual." Sounds desperate to me.

None of your cutesy rebuttals even got close to being a legit rebuttal. Quit interpreting Ezekiel with all the other ........ in your mind (eisegesis). Temple of God or not, if it was something disapproved by God, it wouldn't be a uniform worn in heaven.

If my defense is weak, what kind of offense is appealing to Lucifer for your doctrinal support?????

I'll just assume that you cannot fill in the blank as to whether or not Lucifer was the temple of God...since you haven't done it in the last 4 pages!

Are you aware that the topic of this thread is jewelry...not ties?!?! And, for about the 15th time now, I'll asert [to no avail, no doubt] that I'm not a fan of extravagant clothing attire, as it violates the principle of outward holiness, as does ornamentation on God's temple.

Sheesh, you fella's just refuse to get it eh'.

Sorry Charlie, there certainly is textual proof that Lucifer's ornaments played a part in his fall...why else did the Holy Spirit take the time to enumerate them in describing his fall. Musical abilities are not condemned else where in the Bible as is Jewelry on God's people. Try again Jeffrey.....

Interpreting Ezekiel has nothing to do with taking the argument back to Timothy or Peter.

Hmmm, then why has a majority of this thread included a discussion of Ezek. 16?????? Man, you're toooooo easy!


Ezekiel wrote independently of them (and as you know, we've spent considerable time arguing a contrary position to yours on those references as well). You tried to pot shot this point in a drive-by, shoot-from-the-hip fashion, so let's stick to the Ezekiel passagem (one of many scriptures I listed where jewelry was spoken of positively).

And fine linen, nose rings, etc. were also mentioned "positively," so I suppose that I can head down to the most extravagant, costly suit shop in town & now spend &1,000 on suit for church, along w/ my nose ring, lip ring, tongue ring, spiked hair, etc.....Plumb ridiculous!

You almost assume Lucifer was in sin when he was described by Ezekiel. Of course, you MUST stretch that point to conform to your later point (I believe you understand the word "eisegesis"). Unfortunately, your case is without any merit.
"Not with gold jewelry, pearls, or costly apparel." [NLT]. Sorry friend, denial is not evidence. I have all "the merit" in the world...it's called the Bible. You oughta' check it out sometime......

You cannot comprehend me above, just as you apparently need a tutor to comprehend "Not with gold jewelry, pearls, or costly clothing." You're a hoot!

None of your cutesy rebuttals even got close to being a legit rebuttal. Quit interpreting Ezekiel with all the other ........ in your mind (eisegesis). Temple of God or not, if it was something disapproved by God, it wouldn't be a uniform worn in heaven.
There was also rebellion "in heaven" by the angels; I suppose, according to your tortured eisegesis of I Tim. 2, that's whom you take your cue from.

So, according to your post above, it's of NOOOOO significance that the NT church is the temple of God??? Man, you have muuuuuch to learn. Perhaps, you should read David Norris' "I AM" book that he recently put out. It blows your theory concerning the NT temple to bits using contemporary scholarship. But, you probably wouldn't understand it either, if you somehow cannot comprehend "Not with gold jewelry....".

Sheesh, what's wrong w/ you guys???????
