comment David and Goliath: David's Reasons For Fighting
I'm not sure the reason for the downvote - I think this is a good question.

Do you mean how much of David's motivation?

so is ‘your’ in 5:16 singular, and ‘your’ in 6:1 plural?

comment Ecclesiastes 4:12 A cord of three strands is not quickly broken
@J.C.Salomon I'm not sure if it is objectively true to say the reference 'is not needed' - as that is a subjective issue. A Christian may argue the opposite (ie that the answer is incomplete without it). It is best in my opinion to leave that decision to the answerer whatever our personal views - we are, of course, free to vote/comment as we please and provide answers that we prefer :)

comment Does Paul refer to his past or present evil/sin in Romans 7
In that case you'd edit this answer - you should be able to do that on your own answers with the 'edit' button just under the post, and with enough 'rep' you can edit other peoples answers too which is something new users find very strange but is important for how the site works. Usually you'd only edit someone else's post to correct spelling/grammer/formatting - changing the meaning of what someone else has written would be frowned on :-)

comment Does Paul refer to his past or present evil/sin in Romans 7
an afterthought: the husbands you equate with Adam/Christ but perhaps Paul does not intend a direct analogy at all - isn't the point that release from 'a law' was always possible through 'a death' - the death in question here is the death of Christ.

I'm hoping to have my own go at answering this if I can get my thoughts in order. If you have the time to revisit what you wrote and think you could improve it, I'd like to encourage you to do so - answers are the lifeblood of the site so that benefits everyone :) If you'd like to chat through how to go about this or your thoughts on Romans 7 in general, do pop into the site chat room.

@Blessed I think he is a type of Elijah. Would that fit with his name in your view? Are the other names significant?

As it stands this is too broad to be answerable - feel free to edit into a (much) more specific question and re-opening could be considered

Hi Radz - you somehow ended up with two unregistered accounts here - I've merged them but I'd like to encourage you to register so this sort of thing doesn't happen :)
