"Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything

Had a question for you all. I was assigned a question about whether it is wrong to kiss your child on the lips. Any opinions?

Stuart Mattfield Not inherently...no...IMHO. Age, comfort level, etc. all will play a factor.

Scott D. Foreman No problems with it - during the years that it's 'appropriate', and that really is between parent and child...and that's factoring . . .

And here is had, for me, a perplexity (which moves in one of my questions):
If it is that sin in its concentrated definition "is the transgression of the law" (I John 3:4), how then can Paul so say "sin is not imputed when there is no law" (Romans 5:13)? For surely the law imputes, and doubtlessly sin is transgression of the law, but if this is so then how can there be one without the other as the apostle implies--sin before Moses (e.g., Genesis 4:7), but no law before him.
