One statement of God I couldn't wrap my mind around.

[Gypsys Kiss]

Proverbs 31:21 and its scarlet not crimson and also its says she does NOT fear the snow

[Snorri1234]

Ok. Now that your being serious. What's your interpetation of it?

"Her household does not fear the snow because her household are all dressed in crimson."

I don't know the context this is in. But without any context I suppose I can make a stab at it.

I think household refers to a whorehouse, which isn't much of a stretch as it's about the whore.
Crimson (red) is a colour associated with violence in English, but red can also refer to the clother off whores, as red marks prostitutes. (At least, in the red light district.)

Whorehouses are frequently warm during the winter as people escape the cold, so it figures they wouldn't fear it. The prostitutes and patrons of the house don't fear the winter (snow) but snow is something from God and it relates to innocence (white). So I think it's about how the whore doesn't fear God, even though it should, as they've lost their innocence.


But really, without context it's pretty hard.

No. Actually it IS crimson. According to the King James version that is.

By the way, why are you correcting me on the "does not" part of the phrase. That's just what I wrote. Your really grasping at straws to make me look like a fool, arn't you.

I wouldn't expect any less.

Lets be honest here. Is that really much different than what I said? Sure the details are different but the message is basically the same.

it dont matter much i suppose.

But if you read the rest of proverbs she isnt a whore, unless you apply innuendo to the passages.

I have read ALL of the proverbs. Thank you very much.

[Gypsys Kiss]

I'm not trying to make you look anything. I'm just saying that she isnt afraid of the snow because she is dressed in crimson/ scarlet. Isnt that also the colour of the church. Couldn't the church be protecting her from the cold.

Well you said the whore and her household fear the snow, which they don't.

And ofcourse the message is basically the same, it's the bible! It's always about god and how you should fear it.

joking and things aside....this seems like the type of thing that if you want seriously answered you should ask someone from the JF.

They will simply give an answer that fits their agenda....human nature but
far from being conclusive.

eh if he seriously wanted an answer to the question, i just think that probably is a better forum for serious discussion of the issue, something not likely to be found here.

True. The jesus freaks probably know a little more about the bible than bunch of forum-spammers do.

There's been one statement from God that I couldn't seem to wrap my mind around. It is,(not in exact words), "Her household does not fear the snow because her household are all dressed in crimson. The great whore is referred to as "her".

The more I thought about it, the more confused I was. That is until I read an article about snowflakes. This paticular article stated that all snowflakes have the same design in them. Snowflakes in overall looks are different but they all share the same design. The design having three sticks crossing each other. That's the best way I can descibe it. Then it hit me. That's what God was referring to. The way I look at it is that the cross represents Jesus Christ and his sacrifice. The snowflake with the cross and the extra line going through it represents the coming of Trinity. This would explain why the great whore and her household would fear the snow. Being an enemy of God and all. If I'm right, that would be proof of God's exsistence.

Don't get me wrong, people. I DO realize how ridiculas this sounds but sometimes a person has GOT to look outside the box.

Naive much?

Nope. I didn't say that. Get the facts right, pal.

Crimson means dark red in color. I don't know of any church that is red in color. Of course I havn't been to too many churches.

I suppose you made a mistake though.

[PersianPrince]

oh yeah, that definately proves God's exisitence.

A character in the bible is afraid of something which can be intrepreted to represent God.

You'll get the noble prize in no time with that defintion of "proof".

No mistake. If you used your brain to figure it out then you wouldn't be asking. The actual phrase is at the top of my post. The Bible says that household DOES NOT fear the snow because their dressed in crimson.

Well, if it wasn't for the crimson then THEY WOULD FEAR THE SNOW. All it is is connecting the dots. When you think about for a minute, it makes perfect sense. All you got to do is apply your brain just a little bit.

[Gypsys Kiss]

When taken in context with the rest of proverbs it still doesnt explain why you call her a whore.

[TheSupremeCourt]

I thought that the Bible already stated that God exists?

let me just say as far as first posts go...way to be economical with your words.

Ah but you left out the part why they don't fear the snow. You just don't explain that. You only explain why snow is something to be feared.
Your post didn't really state why they were the enemy of god and why crimson meant they didn't fear god. And without the context, it's hard to understand those things.

That would be the READER's responsability. If the READER doesn't know where I'm coming from, then he or she does NOT have a valid say in the discussion. It's like I always say. If you don't know what is being talked about, then just don't open your mouth. Or in this case, don't type.
