The capitalized title God is a neutral term referring to the God of gods spoken of in the OT. In the NT there are other ways of calling him: "the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob" (Acts 3:13; Luke 20:37; Mark 12:26), "the God of the ancestors of the Jews" (Acts 5:30), "the Majesty" (Heb. 1:3...

Read the whole account. Texts out of context are just pretexts. Have a good one, you too ... and thank you for speaking with respect, as is proper of Christians.

You are escused. Thanks for your time. Now I may be busy in other matters. Have a good one.

I know one name God gave Himself that He made to be written near 7,000 times in the Bible. Do you know it? If you want to talk about other names of God, why don't you open a thread about it? It is a good idea, and it may be interesting to the rest of forumers too. This thread is about that...

God did not speak English to Moses, and neither what He said in Hebrew means what some people say it means, and the prove is back in the topic. To deny the obvious is to deceive oneself.

Read what is said. If Christians share what they research and the info is verified, people who is interested in biblical matters do not have to pay for knowledge and feed the religious business. Cooperate with others who may need to learn more than what they have been told.

Instead of trying to disqualify forumers, why not do some research on the subject and share what you find... like me? PS: If internet forums were used by Christians to share quality information instead of attacking each other or saying AMEN to everything that is written without verifying the...

William Tyndale was a biblical scholar in his time. His translation of the Bible was a challenge in his day, as the Church did not want the Bible to be translated into the common languages of the people and persecuted those who tried to do so. Tyndale could not translate the entire Bible, but he...

Checking on one of the first English versions of the Bible, translated directly from manuscripts in the original languages, I found the William Tyndale's Bible, made by him between 1522 and 1536. This is his translation of Exo. 3:13,14: Tyndale Bible in old English: Exo. 3:13 Than sayde Moses...

I was talking about Christian biblical writers and witnesses of Jesus at the time, not about the Jews. Didn't you know that the New Testament writers quoted from the LXX most of the time they were referring to an OT passage? In the Greek LXX the phrase Ehyeh asher ehyeh is translated in a...

A curiosity for those who read and learn new things with this topic: At the time of Jesus Christ the non-Jews read the Scriptures in Greek with the LXX. The disciples of Jesus quoted from it i(n Greek) because that version of the OT was well known at the time, and that was the common language...

@marks , I am not having any discussion with you, since from the very beginning you are getting personal in your posts on my topic. You accuse me of having an agenda, and now want to make me talk about what you want or about the "credentials" I need to talk about what I am talking about. If you...

About that part of your post, I already asked you to open your own topic about that ... I see you do not have many opened topics in the forum, but try to divert others' topics. That is not correct.

I guess you do not accept that Ehyeh asher ehyeh does not mean I am who I am but I will become what I will become. I guess you'll have to investigate the matter on your own. I already did it and I'm just sharing my conclusions.

Any Christian who wishes can invest some of his time, money, and some effort in learning Hebrew or Greek, comparing versions of the Bible, and looking up biblical matters on many serious related Internet websites. What is not necessary to have access to accurate biblical information is a degree...

I do not agree ... and that is not the issue of this thread. If you open another topic about it, I'll probably share some ideas I came to with my Bible study ... and read what you have to say.

One thing Jesus never said, and it is "I am I AM". The I AM invention is supposed to be a name, the "I am" Jesus used was a personal pronoun (sometimes ommited) and a personal form of the verb TO BE ... nothing about a name I AM. We find in the Scriptures many examples of others using the...

I understand that some people who claim to be Christians get aggressive when they hear something that questions their traditional beliefs, but they should understand that I am very interested in helping other more reasonable and less violent people to realize what they need to know. Whoever...

God has a real personal name to identify Himself in a personal way; it defines the total of his identity and uniqueness, as the personal name of a human being distinguishes him from the rest of human beings or from any living being that can be named. My name refers to my identity and my person...

Humans may not be able to dare to remove God's name out of His own book on their own, but there are unseen enemies that can goad some people into doing what they set out to do. When God's name is removed from the Bible (at least YHWH is accurate), it depersonalizes the God who bears that name...
