If you had stopped and considered my post, I stated that you had given the usual argument that I receive against translating "Seismos" as turmoil rather than earthquake. I also gave examples where the translation of "seismos" as earthquake is illogical. I had also presented the context and the...

The present translations are the best means for us to find out as much as we can about God and Christ and the relationship that we should have with God. However, for example, the Story of the Minas, i.e. the secular version told to the crowds accompanying Christ on the road up from Jericho...

Yes, Oz, the ESV is a reasonable translations, even with its faults, but I will ask you the same question that I asked above: - How does an Angel, coming down out of heaven cause "a great earthquake." If an Angel coming down out of heaven does not create a great earthquake, then what is being...

Hello Oz, the minister of the church I was attending spoke about how he only believed English Translations that came out of a committee rather than a paraphrase English translation generated by a single person. I smiled to myself as a committee is just as susceptible to making mistakes as a...

An interesting claim of the date for the crucifixion as the actual day Christ was born is still debated. I have seen a seven year spread as to the year in which Christ was born. How close to Jerusalem was the earthquake's epicentre is not given as a 8.2 earthquake would probably levelled...

It is my view that the word "earnest" in verse 14 does not convey the same message content as the word "source/pledge" would. "He is the 'source' of our inheritance." Shalom

Perhaps this may from PC Study Bible may help: - Where the <XXXX> numbers represent the Greek Root words for the particular source Greek Texts and <9999> indicates that the Greek text is missing from the primary source Greek text for the translation. What is of concern to me with respect...

I like this question, as I did not provide any explanation as to why Israel was reminded to keep the Sabbath Day Holy. Israel came into existence at the beginning of the third "day of the Lord"/age from the time that God created Adam at the very end of the sixth day of the Lord. God in Exodus...

You can, the reply "button" is in the bottom right hand corner of the post you want to reply too. That is how I replied to your post. Shalom

@FluffyYellowDuck you have asked a very important question in your post above. The basis of the parable of the separation of the sheep from the Goats can be traced back to Isaiah 58. Righteousness is mentioned twice in this chapter: - Isaiah 58:1-3: -...

Billy, Keraz is a New Zealander, who has spent some time in the Nation of Israel. In the footer to his posts he offers free Bible Study material which he has written on his web site. It gives an insight into his perspective of the scriptures. Shalom

What a weak attack against God's scriptures. How narrow minded can you get. To help paint the true picture that Ez. 34 is referencing Israel, perhaps for the enlightenment of yourself you may like to peruse the first 10 verse of Chapter 34 that occur before the ones I posted in my post above...

I hold my own council as to what is true and do not splash it around like confetti as some do here on this forum. Biblically, the scriptures have told us why, what is going on is happening, but few "Christians" can understand the cause and the effect of what is happening. Few if any Christians...

Your testimony is false as usual.

No if there is going to be no more sin in the world, then the second death is no longer in play just as the bottomless pit is no longer in play, both of them are thrown into the lake of fire, which is not the second death, but it consumes the second death and the bottomless pit.

Have you considered that sin is the precursor to the second death? When the second death is no longer applicable or needed, it will be cast into the Lake of fire along with the bottomless pit were all evil goes to await their time of punishment.

It seems that it is you who has no idea. What do you think I meant by "My excess folding stuff?" I am not bemoaning the fact that I kept my sanity, by being generous towards others not as well off as myself and helping them out where they live in desperation and poverty because they cannot be...

My excess folding stuff. What did you sacrifice, your sanity?

So you do have a funny bone?
