The book of Titus specifically states that Titus was to ordain elders, and then goes on to list those same qualifications that were identified in 1 Timothy 3.

No one said it did.

I would really like an answer to my question. Is 1 Tim 5, where it talks about caring for the widows and specifies she must be the wife of one husband, saying the same as what y'all are applying to the bishop being the husband of one wife?

Surgery went well. Doctor didn't see any other indications of cancer. We'll have the pathology report back by Friday. She's home and doing well. Thanks for the prayers!!!

Agreed -- if they've repented of the sin.

Tell ya what: I need some of those more learned folk here, especially those that understand Greek, to help me out. The way I understand it, mia (the word translated "one" in 1 Tim 3) is the feminine form of hice (the numerical found in 1 Tim 5:9). If that's true, if the two words are related...

Is this a theology question? Asking for opinions? Or does it belong in the calvin/arminius forum, since the opening post's entire foundation falls on that distinction? Honest question, seriously.

Well, according to the founding fathers, who atrributed this to the Creator, the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

You're 50% correct. The government doesn't give what was ours to begin with; but they can restrict and take away.

PET scan was completed Thursday. Technician said he wasn't officially allowed to say anything, but he saw only the one spot. Surgery on Monday; if the pathology comes back as stage one or two, then the surgery should be the end of it. Thank you for your prayers. Please keep 'em coming.

CTB - you're against sales tax on the internet, but you'd be okay with federal utility-like taxes on it? But we would get much higher tax revenue from sales tax.... And arguing for the ISPs, or arguing for Obama's proposal--we get poorer service either way.

See, y'all are pointing out exactly the problem with net neutrality. If we leave it to the corporations, they'll revoke "neutrality" and charge based on what speed you want. If we leave it to the government, they'll *have* to implement utility taxes in order to provide the infrastructure and...

Oh. So son of Go is in the sequel? Think I'm getting it now.

Well, thank you. I don't often get such encouragement. Much appreciated.

Exactly (as in, I understand what you're getting at, and hope you understand in return).

Well, I for one am a son of God. I don't know who this "Go" character is.

Dr. Bob - he's (she's?) already posted under another name (GISMYS, I believe). So they've basically pretended to be someone else just to back on here.

Net neutrality is exactly as CTB has described it. Y'all know CTB and I have opposing viewpoints on just about everything. On this matter, I agree with him 100%. Net neutrality rules are meant to keep the Internet service providers from setting up "tiers". Think carefully about this: if there...

To be able to tax it.

I gotta tell ya: that paragraph made no sense to me. Could you dumb that down some more so I can figure out what you were trying to say? What's been evidenced here is that you've just conversed with people who have actual experience , as opposed to those authors you're giving more credit to...
