Rule of "Audience" (Was re: The Rich Man)

• Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

It's worse than that, actually, if this "Rule of Audience" was applied 
consistently then we can simply throw out the entirety of Romans, 1 and 2 
Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Collossians, 1 and 2 
Thessalonians, 1 and 2 Timothy, Titus, and Philemon - and that's just for 
starters. 

Most of the other Epistles are believed to have been written for a specific 
audience as well, but in the case of the books I mentioned above there can be 
no doubt - just read the introductory verses. 

Furthermore, every time Jesus speaks in the Gospels, he is speaking to an 
audience of some sort, right? So I guess we can throw all that out the door 
too?
