What is BDF?

William Tyndale an ex Catholic. The KJV is about 80 to 90 % of his work in the NT, and much of it in the OT also. "The Church of England was born directly out of the Roman Catholic Church when King Henry VIII broke away in 1534. Because of this, the KJV translators practiced a faith that...

Yeah, that's what I was taking about. Could that be an advantage in studying Scripture in some ways?

I'm having trouble getting past the foundational stuff in any discussion to get to those things. Without a common foundation, there probably will never be a productive conversation about anything in Scripture beyond that. Try reasoning with a Calvinist who interprets everything based on TULIP...

Hey Lynx Think of it like this. There was Sherlock Holmes movie, or tv show that I watched when I was younger. I'm going by memory so.....It showed a room full of people casually talking to each other in little groups. Like a cocktail party. The setting looked like a library with the walls...

Your autism could be an asset in helping to see Biblical context and understanding Scripture over all. Of course, this is all tempered with the fact that these things are spiritually discerned and everything that goes with that. I've never been tested for autism, but have had a few people...

Yawn! John 7:38-39 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water." But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified. Ephesians...

Joshua had the Holy Spirit upon him, but not in him. The all or nothing argument with regards to the Holy Spirit is your framework which you have not yet proven. Please do not apply that unproven framework to my position and act as if it's an flaw from my thinking. The all or nothing argument...

Jesus said that he had to go, but would not leave them orphans, he would come back to them. Jesus resides in believers now, and no longer a Temple. We are called the Temple of the Holy Spirit. I agree. the NT begins in Acts, not Matthew chapter 1. John 14:16-20 And I will pray the Father, and...

You have not proved this. Your definition of a saint is a believer, I'm presuming? Let me know if it's not. Yes, they can believe in the OT, but your logic is backwards. Me: The Bible says that one must be indwelt to have the life. Even Roger says this and quoted Romans 8:9-11. These in...

The entire post #261 is my reason, not a half of a sentence quoted form it.

Are we going to continue this song and dance? Ok, I'll play. ----------------- Genesis 41:38, This is Pharaoh recognizing that the Spirit of God is working through Joseph. It's Pharaohs perspective recorded, and he could not know if the Spirit of God was in Joseph or upon him. He only...

Because the quote that you used was deliberately partial to paint a false picture. You quoted the conclusion that I made, not the evidence that I presented of which the conclusion was drawn from. the evidence part was deliberately left out of your quote of me, as you tried painting the...

I agree, but how, if they were not indwelt with the Holy Spirit and did not yet have the life (Romans 8:9-11)? There must be another Biblical option, right?

It's actually a quote from post # 261 That's just the conclusion I made to the argument that I also made, not the reason that I would not translate 1 Peter 1:11 that way. Here is the reason why I reached that conclusion. Quote is from post #261, at the top of page 13 in this thread. "1 Peter...

It's a simple question. No need for a song and dance. How did these believe? John 7:38-39 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water." But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy...

Roger How did these believe who Jesus is speaking of here? John 7:38-39 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water." But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet...

Really? What I said was the context of the whole Bible did not match the the interpretation of that passage. So we look for alternative, yet legitimate translation options, albeit not the most "popular ones", that does line up with the rest of the Bible. Please, for you and Roger both, if...

I'll stand on my last post, which answered this one already, again. Dave

Now I'm the evil Judge for asking you to tell me what you actually think of the Scripture that I posted. I'll ask again, what's your understanding of it? What is really being said in Ezekiel 36:26-27, and John 7:39, and the many verses in John that say the same thing? You still have not...
