Chapter 17 v.20 ESV : A man of crooked heart does not discover good NIV : One whose heart is corrupt does not prosper v.21 ESV : He who sires a fool gets himself sorrow NIV : To have a fool for a child brings grief v.23 ESV : The wicked accepts a bribe NIV : The wicked accept bribes v.27...

I am happy to hear that. I am certainly not denying the fact that many non-Calvinists believe in the Great Commission. I was just emphasizing that detractors are wrong about the soul-winning ways of many Calvinists. That is, the critics claim that Calvinists are passive, sit on their duffs, and...

You and MM are as right on this as elephant dung.

These translations are among those that have Junia in Romans 16:7 : CSB, ISV, NET, CEB, LEB, NLT, ESV, Mounce. Sometimes Y-1, no make that all-too-often, you run around like a chicken with its head cut off.

Because it's what the Lord has commanded us to do. Have you ever heard of the Great Commission of Matthew 28:18-20? We Calvinists do. We are to be proactive and leave the results in God's hands.

He's on the NIV team now. Nothing he said in the article condemns the rendering of the NIV. The text of the NIV doesn't mean those two were apostles. Secondly, a lot of translations render one of them as Junia. The NKJ, LEB, ESV. CSB, WEB and a lot more. Again, Y-1, you are up a creek without...

I was pointing out the truths of those verses in John 6. Don't quibble over the order I dealt with them. There is no such thing as "universal opportunity." That is a fiction --not originating from the Bible.

I have gone over the above so many times it would make someone's head swim. First 1 Timothy 2:12 as rendered in the NIV : "I do not permit a woman to teach or assume authority over a man; she must be quiet." The NET Bible has a note saying according to BDAG, "this greek verb means 'to assume...

The only enablement taught in the Scripture is in John 6:65 : "This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless the Father has enabled them." None of these will be lost. All of them will be given of the Father to Jesus. All of them will be raised up at the last day. There is no...

Well good for you. Meanwhile the OP has not been proven, nor has an attempt been made.

What a hoot. I just recovered from a laughing attack when I read your post. You are out on a broken limb MM.

Let's deal with the three most prominent ones in the evangelical world :NLT, NIV and CSB. You claim there is "a subtle influence at work." It's so subtle it doesn't exist. None of the above three have anything in their respective texts promoting women as pastors and elders. Nor do these three...

Because your 'concerns' are unwarranted and never proven. Besides, the 1977 NASB is your translation of choice.

At last count there have been 90-some posts on this thread. What's above was post #24. Don't you think it's time for the OP to be giving evidence that the headline is true? It should have been the first order of business.

I beg your pardon? What are you you trying to say? The natural person is at enmity with God, blinded, helpless, lost, incapable of faith, dead, spiritually dead.

You know this already. Why ask questions when you know the answer? And you know I know the answer, I'm the one who has been making the comparisons thread after thread, year after year.

Mitch, are you able to see the contrast between verse 13 and verse 14? Verse 13 :"This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words." That's quite an obvious difference with the person...

It demonstrated that it used those words about as much as the CSB, and less than the NLT, among other things.

I already told you in the post of mine you just quoted. By the way, it's not necessary to capitalize the 'g' in grammar. Reworded : The NKJV is the KJV for today's reader. But it is a shame that those in the KJVO camp view it as being a false Bible.

What stats?
