  1. Episkopos

    The social gospel?

    I get that. But saved to what? What does Jesus say about those who are naked? Do a study. I think you are going in the wrong direction with this. Are you saying you don't want to please God? That you don't care if He is pleased with you or not? True. But motivation is not the issue on...
  2. Episkopos

    The social gospel?

    That means shame and reproach for ever.
  3. Episkopos

    The social gospel?

    Yes. The mere mention of fire can be misconstrued to have the same meaning all the time. Our God is a consuming fire but He is NOT the lake of fire. Like the leaven of the Pharisees...a little leaven (sin) leavens the whole batch. Now from a touchy-feely perspective Jesus' use of leaven to...
  4. Episkopos

    Hearing God's Voice

    Twice now. Once for 3 days (I couldn't take it anymore) and the second time for about 2.5 years. I hung on until I guess I got smug and uncareful. I think we can't go directly after these things. The Lord knows what we need. But it is while we are doing His will and then NEED His intervention...
  5. Episkopos

    The social gospel?

    I'm surprised you didn't throw in Daniels's 70th week or mention Pelagius. Your kind of speculations are not biblical based at all....but merely you trying to connect dots that are unrelated. There are so many intertwined threads...like a ball of yarn (pun intended) that has no end. The bible...
  6. Episkopos

    Error in KJV and NKJV

    LOL. I was trying to show non-Hebrew readers how that the same weight is given to both sides of the equation. As a child is weaned..and...as a man is weaned (I am weaned). And in the first case...from his mother...in the second case.."from my soul" In Hebrew it looks like this כְּ֖גָמֻל...
  7. Episkopos

    The social gospel?

    Saved as poor, naked, wretched, and blind. The bible goes into detail on this.
  8. Episkopos

    The social gospel?

    You are using one translation to justify another translation. The LXX is a "targum" not original scriptures. The ONLY way to understand aphesis is the way the word is used in an inspired text. It means liberty/freedom. Forgiveness is by shemitah... the release of debt. I think one will...
  9. Episkopos

    The social gospel?

    That's a good thing :) As long as you are open to the truth. Read the parable of the wheat and tares. The 2 cuts into eternal life are there. I did a podcast on the subject...# 37 "Are you ready for judgment" Dead people don't wander forever in outer darkness. At least half of modern...

    Error in KJV and NKJV

    LOL You mean PHD's like Jesus, Peter, and John and Paul?? (People who Have Discerment) :dusted:
  11. Episkopos

    Error in KJV and NKJV

    An example of this error in translation from Ps. 119:17 Deal bountifully with thy servant, that I may live, and keep thy word. IOW...if you scratch my back I will scratch yours? I don't think so. Now here is the verse rendered the better way... "Wean Your servant, that I may live, and keep...
  12. Episkopos

    Error in KJV and NKJV

    Like the translation of the KJV into Hebrew...or the New testament from the KJV into Greek? If the KJV was good enough for Paul, right? o_O
  13. Episkopos

    The social gospel?

    Too funny. Are people in outer darkness too busy being dead in the lake of fire...you think? Oh my. A two-dimensional understanding of the bible is all that most can expect in this life. That's enough to learn how to serve others and suffer in silence. But to teach the words of God???
  14. Episkopos

    Error in KJV and NKJV

    LOL Is ignorance a gift of the Spirit now? I get the humour.
  15. Episkopos

    Error in KJV and NKJV

    But do you understand it? Gamoul alay....as a phrase is used here twice to mean "weaned upon" ...or just"weaned". Gamal (same letters) can also mean camel. (I think this is due to the fact that a camel can go so long without water) Elsewhere in the bible that very same phrase (gamoul alay) is...
  16. Episkopos

    Error in KJV and NKJV

    Did you read the Hebrew? can you read the Hebrew? Or is this a theory that you are speaking by opinion? Whatever you do don't look any deeper into this.... or other such blatant mis-translations. :ummm:
  17. Episkopos

    The social gospel?

    saved...into outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Spit out, cast away, cut off, found naked...etc...all for vessels of dishonour whose shame and reproach are eternally laid on them.
  18. Episkopos

    Error in KJV and NKJV

    LOL. Any translation is rife with errors. ALL translators have an agenda. It's best to consult more than one source. It's best to know the original language, of course. As to your example above...the Hebrew "bekirbechem" is usually translated as "in the midst of them". However, in my bible...

    The social gospel?

    I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go: I will guide you with mine eye. Ps. 32:8 Seek the Lord and live.
