No, these ancient languages have lost their meanings as the years go by. The farther away we get, the worse the 'definitions" become.

That's silly. The original is long gone. All we have is copies of copies. Unless the original N.T. was written in stone...

My test was tested 400 years ago. It passed. You are still testing.....and testing....

Egad! How awful.

No, I am American with an English KJV Bible. You are too and are oblivious as I am to 2-3000 years ago's lifestyles.

Words matter. I read the words of the KJV, not the hidden meanings.

Of course. The original is disintegrated for at least 1000 years. You saw it?

No, modern translations and commentary fails my test. The KJV passes all our test's with flying colors.

Exactly. He was made a quickening spirit by his God that resurrected him from the dead. Also, Jesus preexisted in the mind/will of God, which is reality. He was even crucified from the foundation of the world. He most certainly was known in heaven while on earth this way.

The meaning in my language that we are communicating in is English. That is where I get my KJV Bible meanings. It was finished 400 years ago and needs no more redefinitions...unless the Bible bores you.

I know a little Greek. He owns a restaurant near my house. Do you know a little Greek too?

Earth to Joseph.....

It fails my test.

42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. 43 And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him. 44 And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling...

Like I said...mass commentary. You and I could have inserted all that extra stuff to force the words to say whatever we insist in our own translations. Not wise though.

I was being hypothetical.

Impossible. Acts is filled with tongues, but modern churches are mute of tongues. Evidence of the Holy Ghost was required in Acts for the Apostles to know folks were baptize-able. The Apostles would have been shocked to have to un-save and re-save folks like we do in modern times. Crazy...

What translation is the plumbline(standard bearer) then? Or....what would you compare YOUR translation you created to?

I agree. But the Apostles, including the writers of the N.T. were not the ravenous wolves fore mentioned. So, the N.T. is your guide.

That version is mass commentary. It does not resemble the KJV. It looks like the author was writing a play. Yikes.
