Does God have a Soul?

Thanks, You just proved my point.


again, Using what you just said, The word could not be a "he" (An Induvidual) in the begining with God in your example.

And showed why I can never believe as you do.

But thats fine. I do not hold that against you.

So, basically... you're just not gonna address anything from the Word about how the Son and the Holy Spirit proceeded(eth), or any other passage. Exegesis has become invalid compared to opinion and presumption?

What you mean the greek word Exelthon used in john 8: 42 where Jesus said he proceeded from the father? where he explains he did not come of his own, but was sent by the father?

The same greek word used in first john where john states they departed from (Exelthon) us, but they were never of us. explaining how some had proceeded out of the church, but in this case not sent out by, but of their own free will because they no longer believed?

There is more to exegesis than ones opinion.

Better than nothing. I'll take a simplified inadequate non-etymological exegetic attempt from someone with no language knowledge that's using software over mere opinion. Thanks for the effort.

Thats ok. I know people with years and years of hebrew and greek studies who can't get it right. In fact many of the teachers of Trinity (which we both disagree with) have years and years of languags studies. So does that make them more right that us? or less??

Language is not hard. One way to see how a language is used is to look at all ways the word is used.

Which is what I did.

John made it clear the men who left where never a "part" of the church. Yet the same greek word is used to show their departing (going out of, proceeding forth from)

Now, If the people who departed or proceeded forth were an actual part of the church entity. Your "theory" might stand, But unfortunately we see it does not.

Using software tools and knowing language are quite different. And there are many other uses of the base exerchomai. Exelthon is in the 2nd person aorist. And the surrounding passage renderings and etymologies are also integral.

I understand your general point about language. That's why I leave you to your own after you at least expended some effort.
