What are you qualifications to be able to discern better then the nas/esv/Nkjv translators then what English word should had been used instead of the ones they chose to use then?

Rather than point you toward sources for understanding the definitions to best use in the translation of the original languages, without a well-grounded working knowledge of the original languages themselves, I very much like the back door approach made by Ascetic X, who aims you almost in the...

Finding a single English word to be primarily used to translate a single Greed word MEANING is not impossible but advantages. This is a simple concept, and not difficult to grasp. Thus we need to ask why has a strawman argument be hoisted upon the unwary? Let us consider "Teleo" (G5055) it...

Finding a single English word to translate a single Greek word every time is an impossibility. I have mentioned context, but one should also compare the appearance of the word in one verse of Scripture with its meaning in other places. But sometimes, it has to be accepted that the Greek word...

This post by Alan is so mixed up it's hard to know where my words are and where his are. But he makes a good point or two, so I'll try to answer what I can. I deleted what I wrote and will answer what he wrote. Again, no dispensationalist uses the word "dispense" concerning a dispensation. It...

I see that someone wants to hinder discuss of ways to improve our English translations. Like the brood of vipers that were not going to enter heaven, and prevented others from going in, these posters want to avoid discussion of ways to improve our translations. See Matthew 23:13 A lack of...

To be clear. My first post did not mention you at all. Your response was personal attacks upon me. Nuff said dauhhhh We already have clear and accurate translations and plenty of study tools to assist our understanding. They just don’t agree with your theology which is the only thing you seem...

This troll continues to address me and not the thread topic. Nuff said. We need more that to study our translation objectively, we need clear and accurate translations of the inspired word. 1) Luke 2:15 NASB "see this "thing" 2) CSB "see "what" has happened" 3) DRA " "see this "word" that" 4)...

Do you lie to people when you share the good news? Only to those who believe. Are they? Are all people saved? Is that really a serious question? I don't. Do you? What did God give you dominion over?

Canadyd seems to have no idea of how to use an Exhaustive Concordance, and seems clueless as to how to improve our translations. I say improve the existing translations and the troll suggests I said we need more translation versions. Fiddlesticks. We need more that to study our translation...

A lack of concordance is evident in all modern English translations because they reflect to often the inconsistent word choices of the pre-computer age. Most Greek words of the NT are translated into far too many English words. "Rhema," a Greek word that appears about 70 times in the NT, is...

A lack of concordance is evident in all modern translations because they reflect the word choices of the pre-computer age predecessors. My position is that most Greek words are translated into far too many English words unnecessarily. Rhema, a Greek word that appears about 70 times in the NT...

. Luke 2:11, For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. Isaiah 9:6, For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The...

So did jesus have a human soul and mind per your understanding then?

Recently a well respected poster claimed my Christology was the heresy of Apollinarianism. I claimed it was not. I never acknowledged the poster was correct, because I did not, and the poster, as far as I know, never acknowledged I was right, either. This failure to reach consensus is the bane...

Please try to support all these conjectures from scripture. Do not tell me He only had a human spirit soul as He had the mind of Christ, the same mind we have access to when indwelt. And do not tell me He had two minds/spirits because He had only one. Luke 23:46 For example, you cited John...

If the mind of Jesus was not human, He could not be tempted. A human body on its own cannot be tempted. Because His mind was human, it had to grow in wisdom. Luke 2:52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man. The human mind of Jesus had its own will, separate...

So you are saying that God knows which people we are lying to when we tell them that we have good news for them. So good tidings of great joy is not really to all people. Those are lying spirits in Luke 2? All people doesn’t really mean all people? Or the people that it doesn’t mean are...

Your welcome, and I did not feel a thing hurtful when I underwent the circumcision done without hands, and neither did you....

Thanks, @Van. I knew I could count on you for encouragement. However, I think you may be placing a lot of emphasis on the circumcision of Christ as we read of it in Luke 2:21. I think also that if you were blindfolded, and had either washing or circumcision performed on you, you would be able...
