He was as you say a man, a person, but what is the Word of God? Is that not the Living Jesus rather than the dead carcass hanging on the cross before the Resurrection? Even so... with a paper Bible unread by a person without the quickening Spirit. I have quite a few paper Bibles, but not a...

Was kann man noch sagen? Auf Deutsch, nicht viel. Yes, God rested from His work and I rest here from my German. It has been years since I had a conversation with anyone in German so I am also resting from that work. It’s nice to find someone who can do carry on a conversation even in what you...

Sehr gut, mein Freund.

You are correct so long as you are trying to fulfill or achieve on your own power. I don't do all of my own work. "And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible." Mark 10:27 "... Christ in you, the hope of glory:" Col 1:27

But Jesus did and we are to become like him.

I am praying for our brother and all of those who are emptied in any measure by this great loss.

Just the openness without bitterness or anger is good. Does God expect more from us? If He does, let us open up to Him and let Him do the necessary work within... This Helen is the nature of the beast which the old man of us is. It is this beast within us along with all of our beasts that...

This is certainly good news. Just a little bit ago I learned of the death of @Triumph1300 wife. That brought tears to my eyes. I did not know her, but her husband caught my attention favorably since being on this forum. His pain is our pain. Anyway it is good to know Twinc is holding on...

I just now read this. Thank you for bringing it to our attention.

Are we to forget scriptures that don't seem to fit our present beliefs? Putting something on the shelf for a while because we do not understand it at the moment is one thing, but to throw it out completely is hardly a good solution. If your conclusion is correct that the Baptist was and is in...

So would you say that before there was a King James Version or any of our more English modern versions, those who used the Tyndale and/or the Geneva Bibles had no access to a correct written English version of the what 'thus saith the Lord'? Those who read only English had no scriptures they...

I did not translate those Bibles either. People will use the Bible itself to describe a lie or to describe a the truth depending on their beliefs and purposes. Many people without a doubt have been in error in such usage, but I would never presume to say that everyone who opposed my own...

Obsessing? Perhaps instead of so selfishly always looking to ourselves we all should be concerned about others: "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her...

What you call reality is the fiction in which most men live and it is all they can see, which in the end of the matter turns out to be nothing. They are really blind. Even many bearing the label of Christian are mired in this same dark place. Without a vision they will also perish as it is written.

Yes, but not everyone who makes a mistake in identification with their mind and mouth is necessarily wrong in their heart. I think you understand me on this point. Too many people perhaps do not really care about the difference between Jesus the reality and the Nehushtan of which you speak and...

Bad you are not, but sometimes you speak without thinking. All of us do that times. May God richly bless you as you walk with Him.

Did he do it? Consider that he did not translate the Geneva Bible or Tynedale Bible both which predated the King James using the pronoun, "it": "All things were made by it, and without it was made nothing that was made. In it was life, and that life was the light of men." John 1:3-4 [Geneva...

@Mister Michael Just in case you are interested. Questions should be addressed to the writer of the OP.

I guess I must have done something to deserve such a judgment against me. If I was needless offensive, I apologize. "Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content." Phil 4:11 Give God the glory!

Yes, as I was a Catholic only during those pre-Vatican II times I know you are correct. I would say he started a "good" Catholic but after Vatican II he kind of went along his own way since officially the church was no longer guiding him. I loved the Catholic Church when I was active in it, but...
