OK, I'll bite. If you couldn't read about what the book supports, how can you "have already found a whole bunch of lies from you concerning biblical data" (your Post #549)??????

Do tell. With specificity, please.

Is it the devil's work to point out Biblical inconsistencies that prove just how much the human element is at work in Scripture? I don't think so. We can respectfully disagree on this.

I don't mock the Bible. It's writings are profound, and immensely valuable. I just refuse to ignore the human element in its creation, which occasionally lead to factual inaccuracies. Please go back and re-read my posts on this subject, and you'll see that you've made some unwarranted...

You're doing it again. . . quoting the Bible itself to prove the accuracy of what it recounts. That's just not going to work well. You need to accept the human element in the creation of these writings. It wont rock your faith. It will, however, force you to think critically about what you...

I don't think God is bound by logic or by scientific method -- although not for the reason you mention.

God-breathed does not mean error-free, my friend. And you cannot prove the Bible's accuracy by quoting from the Bible itself, for that would be circular reasoning. (A verse saying that holy men were moved by the Holy Spirit may be true or may be false -- but its truth does not follow from its...

Not to be nit picky here, but I offer a modest correction: "As the author of James reminds us in Scripture." (We have to abandon the notion that God was moving the author's pen hand on his parchment. That's not what Scripture is.)

Sure. The book is titled "Heresy." You can see a synopsis on my website, and download an excerpt there (the preface and first chapter).

Your deception of others with a bogus "award winning" claim has morphed into self-deception. Here's an idea: Let's recruit some volunteers from this site to do a little reading. As fate would have it, I've written a book that actually IS an award winning book. An actual commercially published...

Methinks you guys are just talking past each other. There's another way to resolve this. Imagine a heavenly discussion between John and Paul, after Paul reads John's gospel (penned after Paul died) and John reads Paul's letter to Timothy (which he hadn't seen when he wrote his gospel). Paul...

Maybe so -- but the question under consideration is the proper interpretation of an apparently universalist phrase in First Timothy that facially appears to be in tension with other Pauline writings. Do you have anything to say on the meaning of the Greek?

Not the first time I have seen false advertising. Definitely the first time I have seen wilful false advertising being justified as promoting Jesus Christ.

While I'm not a Fundamentalist by any stretch, I don't see the phrase as closing a loophole so much as opening the gates wider, perhaps even to nonbelievers. What I'm asking is, will the Greek support a narrower meaning?

I wonder of there is another way to interpret this verse which would be more consistent with Pauline theology (as opposed to with Universalism). We might understand "all men" to refer simply to "both Jews and Gentiles." And we might understand "specially" as "particularly." Would that be a...

Because keeping "award winning" would be an attempt to promote Jesus Christ by deception. Whatever you may think about the Christian subject matter of the book qualifying it as "award winning," that is not what the reading public would understand -- or is intended to understand. I'm...

You gave your website out to everyone, by posting a link in Post #486. That's where I got it. Who is the "he" that you are letting make changes to your website -- and did he or did you insert that your book is "award-winning"? If it was him, why on earth would you repeat the lie in Post #494...

Contrary verses from two different writers Can lead into curses and riot inciters.

And if the Bible is equivocal on the subject, what then?
