Bent Spoon

Today, I ate sorbet at bent spoon. I ordered a small with a scoop of Dark Chocolate and Grapefruit; the first spoonful produced a surprising oral sensation - strong sourness combined with a dark sweetness. Upon finishing my sorbet I realized that the identical sensation experienced by my taste buds had been experienced by my eyes while watching this film. Enjoy.

Ha, I've seen this before. I'd be a masochist to sit through it again. He's got a talent, that's sure.

Haha, but that entire letter is addressed to those within the church, those who already are the body of Christ; it's a difference of categories.

Paul is frequently concerned with those within the church; that's why he says implicitly that it is alright to judge those within the church, not to condemn, but to judge so that a brother or sister would know that he or she has erred. However, Jesus, says do not judge lest you be judged. Jesus, was was addressing the people in a manner that would bring them inside the church.

When Jesus says to give, the implicit presupposition is that you accept him as an authority figure, and thus worthy of listening. Thus, you are then "inside" the church. Jesus' commandments brings someone into the church.

When Paul says that the idle person should not eat, he is saying it as an exhortation to those already within the church. He is concerned with how the church looks to the outside and on the inside. Thus, when he says not to be idle, he is addressing the church's conduct for two reasons. 1) That the conduct would show to the outside world the conduct of the Body of Christ and 2) to further show by example, an edification of the church within.

I think.
