Honestly I wonder if we may see some additional clarification to the Marriage section, specifically dealing with the Ministry. It's needed, but last year was such a hurdle, I don't know if they'll try to go any further right now, but some clarification is probably needed, as some are interpreting it very differently.

I do not think the marriage issue is settled finally, NOT ALL SCRIPTURES pertaining to divorce or marriage were considered.

HOW can one decide the issue if not ALL of the theopneustos is used?

Response: Just curious about how that one would know what scriptures were or were not considered by a committee that studied the subject for years?

Oh, I'm sorry you are right. I used the word "CONSIDERED"

Perhaps I should have said that the Final Decision reflects that certain scriptures were considered more important than other scriptures.
In other words, If the decision is based on Bible, and apparantly contradicts or does not have the season of certain passages, those "lesser important" scriptures which WOULD apply a different season or flavor or outcome APPEAR to not have been considered.
