Please do not take this the wrong way. It appears to me that what you have posted wasn't well researched. I do not intend this to be an attack. It takes years to learn Greek well. Many have given up after 4-6 years because they recognized that they have just begun to scratch the surface. You...

Ed j Yes we are to learn from each other but the handling of the original language must be done quite carefully. What about the function of the article? NewGuy

Have a Blessed Thanksgiving The NewGuy

Excellent Post The NewGuy

Anastacia I know what you mean. I know that the scriptures clearly show that there is a supernatural love that we receive and it is ours to distribute to others. It is something that we cannot do prior to the salvation event. By the way I must go out into the cold to help a friend in need. It...

Anastacia Are you saying that the Holy Spirit does not give us gifts today? The NewGuy

'Anastacia Ah the New Commandments or the Old Ones? 1 John 2: 7 Dear friends, I am not writing you a new command but an old one, which you have had since the beginning. This old command is the message you have heard. 8 Yet I am writing you a new command; its truth is seen in him and in...

bud02 I wouldn't accept what he is saying so readily and I certainly wouldn't purchase what he is trying to sell. I teach Greek and this guy is off. NewGuy

Ed J Or is there one article that is declined differently? Another question that begs to be asked is, "Is the article definite or does it function in a definite manner? Are there other reasons for the use of the article besides definiteness? NewGuy Ed j Are you saying that only one...

Selene Thank you for the discussion NewGuy

Templar81 This is an Interesting thread. Thanks for the read NewGuy

Watchman_2 I sense that you don't like me. Your posts seem to be attacking in nature. Not sure what I said or did other than to disagree with you so I am not sure that I wish to continue this discussion. NewGuy

Templar81 I can! It's not the definitive version. The KJV is, by todays standard, the least among the texts. The latest archaeological and manuscript discoveries have given us new information on that time period. Does BigApe belong to the KJV only cult? NewGuy

Selene Salvation is indeed a gift, but where in the Bible does it say that you don't need to repented? So now are you saying that God hears the prayer of the sinner? God repented as well NewGuy.

Selene If God doesn't hear the prayer of the sinner then why would He acknowledge the repentance of the the sinner ? If salvation is a gift then how does a person repent with it being a personal act? NewGuy

Selene So this lead me back to an earlier thought. We know that God hears the prayer of the righteous and He chooses to not hear the prayer of those who are dead in sin. So how does one ask God for forgiveness if God doesn't listen to their prayer? NewGuy

Selene Is it safe to assume that we agree that God does not hear the prayer of the sinner? NewGuy

Selene What I believe is that He choses to only hear the reayers of the Righteous. NewGuy

Selene Psalms 66:18 If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened; Isaiah 1:15 When you spread out your hands in prayer, I hide my eyes from you; even when you offer many prayers, I am not listening. From the NewGuy :P

Selene 12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil NewGuy Selene Proverbs 28:9 He who turns away his ear from listening to the law, Even his prayer is an abomination...
