always a possibility of that, either way he was absolutely a giant.

good point, I may be tall but I'm no hulk, his weight would have been been a big factor as well.

even using the dead sea scrolls 4 cubits and span going of egyptian cubuts it comes out to around 7' 6", a foot taller than the average NBA basket ball player, definitely what I'd call a giant.

https://www.julianspriggs.co.uk/Pages/CubitConverter 17.5-20.5 inches of approximate variation between egyptian and a standard Israeli cubit, with the israeli being the short according to this.

you know what I mean, a giant is someone significantly taller than normal, also of interest regarding goliath the dead sea scrolls actually give him a different height, I heard 4 cubits and span if I remember, of course the exact length of a cubit varied from region to region, royal cubits...

depends a bit on what you consider a giant.

interesting, I've noticed in the past it really does boil down to following god, rather than resting on one's own. I often forget that.

if we say we have no sin...... I feel if I argue the existence of this verse much more with this I'll start sinning.

arrogance, denying one has sin(both sins), I give up.

Are you refering to events in acts like speaking in tongues where there was a special outpouring of the holy spirit? I already know not to live in sin, as for phillipians is that a typo? "where we are not doing things we know we shouldn't be doing" it reads as a double negative. I don't...

circuitous logic that doesn't clarify what you said, those that know their bible know getting saved requires the holy spirit, so I'm not sure what you're talking about. Repentance is taught everywhere in the bible sometimes directly to believers after the resurrection, so I'm not sure why you...

wait, I must be reading this wrong, are you saying peter wasn't saved when he serving christ or when he walked on water?

glad you brought up john 1:9, obviously we're not supposed to be sinning as par the course, but as john also said, it happens sometimes, that's why he wrote that, the letter was written to a group of believers.

I'm just paraphrasing the explanation in romans. If your going to go to extremes, look at what peter did, he definitely slipped badly, All I'm saying is there's a difference between continuing in sin, and someone who screws up, but makes and effort to correct the behavior. If we say we have no...

Well there's still the war with the flesh even after being set free, our inner delight should be with godly things, but unfortunately sin can still land a punch on us from time to time. We can ask forgiveness and hopefully strengthen ourselves to avoid sinning again.

dont think that's a circumstance they can use in the constitution for extending a president term.

Too late. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/politics/texas/article/dan-patrick-joe-biden-off-texas-ballot-18574947.php

not sure what legal loophole mechanism they could use to achieve that though.

time for the border states to kick biden off the ballot.

someone mentioned dead sea scrolls so, small differences between texts aren't new, some dead sea scrolls say goliath was only 4 cubits and a span and not the 6 cubits and a span that most bibles claim. Possibly due to regional differences in the size of a cubit, we don't know if they actually...
