Featured Understanding Literary Devices in the Bible

Welcome to the forum and great point!

 

aaaaaahhhhh, there it is! Now we understand the purpose behind the pedantic introduction...
Real cemetery, er, I mean seminary style.
That's how it's done folks. Real slick.

 

You do not understand Dr. BOB as you do not understand John M.
We all see it. I understand your frustration

 

Great thread, Dr. Bob. But I'd call some of the ones in this list idioms rather than synecdoche, like "bread" for money, etc.

 

Self taught by the help of the Lord

What real difference does it make how many letters you have after your name? If you have problems with what I write then you can point it out.

 

You have not been able to refute anything that I have said from the Bible as have none of the others who just like to moan about things.

You support a person because of who they are and not whether they are right or wrong as with your Calvinism

 

This explains so much.

 

the foolishness of your line of questions is all too apparant! this goes for those who also considered what you said to be a "winner"!

You failed to mention how great Dr Bob is, when he seems to not know the difference between "idioms" and "synecdoche", as John has correctly pointed out in #24!

I have seen some on here who are "experts" in languages, who themselves fail in their understanding in, for example, Greek grammar, which I have pointed out, but no apology was given

I use many grammatical and study books, and have seen time and again, there ERRORS these people have who letters after their names, make! Like DR A T Robertson, the "great" Greek scholar, and DR George Winer, whom DR Robertson called one of the GREATEST Greek scholars, who misunderstand simple Greek gramnmar!

It is very sad that you are more interested in the "education" levels of people, rather than WHAT they say or write! I wonder what you think of Acts 4:13? "Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated, common men, they were astonished. And they recognized that they had been with Jesus"

I have learned MUCH MORE from prayer and direction of the Holy Spirit, than from ANY book, or person of renown!

What is interesting here, is the fact that John MacArthur is in grave error, with his statement in the video clip that I have shared, which is the purpose behind this thread by Dr Bob, where he very clearly says:

"Do you think that He (Jesus) had to bleed, no, not to save us"

You don't need a DD, or Phd, or the like, to see from this, that JM is saying, that Jesus Christ did not have to bleed, in order to save us. Yet is is very clear from the Bible, that Atonement is ONLY in the BLOOD! For actually calling out DR John MacArthur, for his ERROR, I have been attacked and questioned by children on BB! I can take it, because I know what I have said to be BIBLE TRUTH!

 

now comment on #30. you do say some really childish and foolish things!

 

indeed, this thread was started to respond to my own, by somone who is a DR and revered by some on here, who does not know the difference between "idioms" and "synecdoche"!

 

is that the best that you can do? man you guys do make me really wonder! What is Christianity coming to???

 

and there are MANY in real life who are self-taught, and know MORE than those to went to med school!

 

did you know that without the shedding of blood, there can be NO Atonement? It is ONLY in the Blood of Jesus Christ, which He shed on the Cross, that can Atone for our sins!

 

shows your ignorance of what the Bible Teaches!

 

so children who are home schooled, by parents who have little or no formal training as teachers, are less successful? Are they any less educated than those who go to a school? or turn out to be bigger fools?

Such is the folly of this sort of reasoning!
