Coarse Jesting - Thoughts on Crude Joking and Where to Draw the Line

We are going through the book of Ephesians in my church, and our pastor has been doing an excellent job in expositing the Scriptures faithfully. Today I think we are nearing Ephesians 5, and I am interested for sure in what he has to say about it. Nevertheless, there is a verse in this chapter, verse 4 to be exact that has always interested my thoughts, and I have never gotten a straight answer from anyone on. Here it is.

"1 Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. 2 And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma. 3 But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints; 4neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks. 5 For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in t…

My Personal Journey: How Are We Supposed To Live With Textual Variants in Our Bibles? Part 4: The Last Installment for Now.

I will get to my opinions on the whole matter at the end of this post, but presently I want to continue sharing my journey concerning this issue of Bible Manuscripts, Church History, and Bible Translations. There is a lot of information out there that usually gets

The average man or woman really doesn't have time to sift through all of this, and even if they did, they wouldn't. Most of the time when I discuss this issue with people, their eyes glaze over and I lose them. There is a lot of technical information out there, and it can be very bland and sterile to go through. I don't know why this issue has been so big to me over the years. I suppose it is because I see inconsistencies everywhere and haven't pinned down what I think about it entirely. Over the years, if you knew me well, you would have thought of me like that guy James references in the first par…

Mark Chapter 1

Source: Majority Text1 The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.2 As it is written in the prophets, “Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you: 3 the voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make ready the way of the Lord! Make his paths straight!’ ” 4 John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching the baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins. 5 All the country of Judea and all those of Jerusalem went out to him. They were baptized by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins. 6 John was clothed with camel’s hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey. 7 He preached, saying, “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen. 8 I baptized you in water, but he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit.” 9 In those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 Immediately coming up from the wat…
