"Would A Bible Verse With One Meaning Make God Unimaginative?"


(Would a Bible verse with one meaning make God unimaginative? Of course not.)
 
In this article called "Gay Bishop Backs Planned Parenthood," Episcopal Bishop Robinson said,
 
"This current administration notwithstanding, the world is not black and white," Bishop Robinson said. "We need to teach people about nuance, about holding things in tension, that this can be true and that can be true, and somewhere between is the right answer. It's a very adult way of living, you know.
    "What an unimaginative God it would be if God only put one meaning in any verse of Scripture," he said.
 
(The problem is not that the Lord is unimaginative since he created everything, but Genesis 6:5 tells us, "And God saw the wickedness of man that was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually."  The Apostle Paul also said in Romans 1:21-22, "Because that when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were they thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.  Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.")
