    Revelation 16:5: Does KJV Add Words?

    Or I'll just say what probably most everyone else is thinking... WHO CARES! This thread is about Rev 16:5, not the other 10 passages that you want it to be about. So do you have anything helpful or substantive to add to this discussion, particularly of my assessment to MM that I provided in a...

    Liberty U.'s Direction?

    Not that I like their "theology and apologetics" PhD program or degree completion plan, but their questionnaire requires the applicant to be in "substantial agreement" w/ their doctrinal statement (http://www.liberty.edu/online/media/9932/PhD%20Questionnaire.pdf). My protology is different as...

    Matt. 23:13 (again!)

    How about this obfuscation... what if we read Jesus' words here more in terms of salvation history and the progress of God's redemptive program? I believe this to be the best way to interpret whenever the concept of God's kingdom/reign is concerned. Certainly it overlaps with salvation. But it...

    Revelation 16:5: Does KJV Add Words?

    Let's clean this up and correct it. 1) Your first line of evidence is one of the main reasons why this is clearly conjectural emmandation. It makes better sense that a textual critic would change it to "and is to come" in order to match with other readings. Not to mention that, the Mss support...

    Liberty U.'s Direction?

    I think their faculty in the school of divinity is always going to be lackluster so long as they have their tight doctrinal stance that they do. Even though they are local for me, I would be unable to pursue a PhD there b/c of my stances on things that they clearly delineate in their doctrinal...

    Faith? Where does it come from?

    I think that is a great theological understanding as well as a helpful way to understand the various uses of genders Eph. 2:8. I think it likely that the "that not of yourself" is not just a reference to faith (but certainly includes it) but the entire enterprise of "salvation by grace through...

    Faith? Where does it come from?

    I guess this means you can pat yourself on the back because you made the free choice to come to Christ. Certainly you would deny this, but you tenor makes it appear that you are boasting not only in the cross of Christ but also your ability to choose him. And this is what I find abhorrent about...

    Revelation 16:5: Does KJV Add Words?

    The question of the OP was asked poorly. Not "does" but "did". And not "add" but "change". Did the KJV change a word in Rev. 16:5? Answer:

    Liberty U.'s Direction?

    They are going to have to beef up their library holdings if they want to be any kind of credible research institution in the field of theology and biblical studies.

    Faith? Where does it come from?

    No... the agap- lemma has been abused by the uninformed. Linguists note that the semantic range of the word is limited mainly by its context. In this case, there is very little difference between the fil- lemma and agap-. And as your quote included, physical love was part of the passage. And...

    Faith? Where does it come from?

    Methinks you need to read D.A. Carson's book Exegetical Fallacies. You're committing lexical fallacies big time. Correct? Correct? Correct? No and no, not correct. And eros isn't even used in the Bible. Not to mention that filein and agapein are interchangeable and do not have to have the...

    I'd say only 1 reply qualifies as rarely. But hey... to each his own.

    What is the size of their student body currently, both on campus as well as online?

    The false converts

    Instead of simply accusing me of lying, why don't you tell me what it is that I have lied about and then prove me wrong? As I said, you rarely engage in your own posts. This is yet another example. The only thing you did differently here was not say something about a rabbit. But this is...

    Great Illustration of what is wrong with synergistic theology

    I'm a huge Panthers fan, born and bred in Charlotte, NC. So when I heard Josh Norman say this, I knew what he meant, but it fits so perfectly here: "[T]here's nothing more that's greater than being self-made. Can't nobody take anything from you. Can't nobody say they did this, did that."...

    Is Election Conditional?

    I can't take much of what you say seriously if you can't cite your thinking on Paul as part of the Sanhedrin.

    Dr. White taking on "meme theology" and the KJVOers

    I hadn't heard about this. That would be rich.

    Faith? Where does it come from?

    You said "God gives faith to the believer" Redundant much??? What purpose would it serve for God to give faith to people who already have faith? God gives faith to those WHO LACK IT. All unregenerate people lack a saving faith, being dead and unable to believe. Therefore, the quickening of the...
