    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    for example we have in every English version of the Psalm, 'they pierced My hands and My feet' that's not incorrect, but what it literally says is 'like a lion, My hands and My feet' if the cross couldn't be a deeper mystery, haha! there is no end to the depth of the knowledge and wisdom in the...

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    in a lot of places, yes. i do think it's the best overall translation we have to English - tho i favor quoting nkjv, for a little more modern language and the capitalization strategy they use. more often than not kjv has it right tho in my opinion it's not always perfect, and often the only...

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    in my work i use data to identify cause and find solutions. i am never opposed to more and better data, and in large part the differences between kjv and later translation work ((where that work had the aim of accurate literal translation)) are the result of having more manuscripts and thereby...

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    that's interesting. it appears that ancient translations and manuscripts don't have "without cause" either. https://www.neverthirsty.org/bible-qa/qa-archives/question/angry-without-a-cause-in-matthew-522-only-kjv/ may i suggest that being liable to judgment does not make a person...

    Understanding the Incarnation

    if God causes the sinless to die God is unjust. The scriptures are clear that sin spread to all men through Adam and death through sin. there was no death on earth before Adam and Woman fell, and there is no death in any creature apart from sin. Christ lays His own life down and takes it up...

    Understanding the Incarnation

    Adam and his wife both confessed their sin at first opportunity. You should not consider them so stupid that they thought they could hide from God. The choice of fig leaves is profound, and they were afraid - not of God, whom they immediately answered when He called, but of their shame. They...

    Understanding the Incarnation

    Romans 5 tells us that through one man sin spread to all, not through one woman, even though she was the first in sin. so the sin nature & corresponding mortagenic factor is passed on by the male gamete, not the female. this is partially why He must be virgin-born

    Convince me there is non-alcoholic wine in the Bible/communion

    at Pentecost we have the suspicion that the apostles were drunk on 'new wine' - - so clearly the term does refer to a drink which has alcoholic content.

    Understanding the Incarnation

    even the RCC teaches Christ was 'begotten' not created, that He is eternally God, coexistent with the Father and the Spirit. what the OP is putting forth is essentially Arianism, which is universally condemned as heresy by the orthodox, the catholic, and the protestant churches, and was the...

    Did Some Illumination of Scripture only appear 1800 years after the Revelation?

    to be fair i don't think they've been putting those there for a full 40 years :)

    Another look at John 10.

    yes salvation that can be lost isn't salvation at all; it's damnation pretending to be salvation, just waiting to be revealed as damnation. eternal life that isn't eternal is not eternal life at all; it's disguised death waiting to be revealed as death. God is able to save to the uttermost...

    “There is no hate like Christian love"

    erm, i think it's better we go to a Greek lexicon to understand the accuracy of a pagan language translation, not to a pagan language dictionary.

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    occurs to me that if the kjv translating committee thought as you did they would not have made the kjv. so who is right, you or kjv? :coffee::unsure: you say they sinned by making a new translation. they say you sin by considering theirs perfect. weird conundrum

    what do you have against being rational? :oops:

    ... which is how they got Acts 12:4 completely wrong, but doesn't explain how they utterly failed at Hebrews 4:8

    Among Christian Groups today. Who did not pass this verse?

    of course the beautiful 20-somethings they send to your door don't know this yet. they mostly hardly know anything about the 'deep teachings' reserved for 'elders' and unfortunately there is a huge amount of social pressure on people in places like Utah that makes it very difficult for them to...
