You've seem more than willing to compound this arguement needlessly so I will simplify it by taking on one subject matter at a time.
The reason I used the word neighbor instead of friend. I was simply trying to simply the story here. There were three friends being mentioned in the parable. The one who came to see his friend for a long ways away. Friend 1 friend two was friends with both men he was the one looking for bread at midnight. Friend 3 was only friends with the guy looking for bread. I called hi. A neighbor because that separates him from friend one and identifies him as the guy with the bread with out further identifying friend 2. I have conceded the scriptures identify him as a friend. That said I kept using the term neighbor as it still applies. Because Christ per the parable of the good sameritain identifies anyone that your in proximity with as your neighbor. Which means technically it is correct to call friend 1,2,3 neighbors.
Do you understand this? If yes also understand your use of the word friend in an arguement mean and has never meant anything to me as I use the terms interchangeably
I will not continue till you agree to put this issue to rest.
Quote:You are being intellectually dishonest. No where in the verses you showed says anything about a neighbour being someone who is close by. If that would be true then the robbers, priest and levite would be classified as neighbours, which is incorrect since only the one who showed mercy is classified as the neighbour. If you cannot admit your error here you are a liar.
