    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    Oh no....it is not confirmed by anyone EXCEPT for those promoting an ordinance of a KJVO Bible to obtain salvation. I will NEVER succumb to such a notion. Not even the 1611 translators believed in such madness nor did Oxford translators or Cambridge translators who did slapped the name KJV...

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    I have no idea what you are talking about anymore. You change subjects when proven WRONG to claim its another subject altogether when I even use YOUR websites. I'm not going to agree with you. Not going to argue either. Make whatever ridiculous claim you want and move on. It's not...

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    The Revisers of the New Testament in 1881 were scholars from Great Britain and America who worked on the Revised Version of the Bible, a revision of the King James Version. Some of the most well-known members of the revision committee were Brooke Foss Westcott and Fenton John Anthony Hort it's...

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    Despite your claims... Westcott and Hort NEVER TRANSLATED SCRIPTURES. They only commented on them. The Westcott commentary on the Book of Hebrews is still followed often by modern preachers and commentators today as it is a handy reference for the Targum, Sifre, Midrash, and Talmud it...

    SO MANY FALSE PASTORS TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!

    Titus 1:16 They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good. (NIV)

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    The NIV is not exactly a word for word as its sold as a "Thought for thought" translation....however this isn't exactly true either as it isn't exactly paraphrased either. In truth it's a hybrid and blend of word for word and thought for thought.... Making it useful as a true study bible which...

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    In what manner do you believe the manuscripts are corrupted? For what purpose? To add or remove what specific doctrines? With EVERY translation there exists a goal of translation that seems to focus heavily on certain aspects of doctrine while depressing other doctrines so that the...

    Peter, like all the Apostles except for Paul and Matthew/Levi dropped out due to economic concerns. They were competent in reading and writing but they weren't scholars by a long shot. It was only the best of the best that went on to bethmidrash.

    It's an edumacated guess from my studies. Every time I turn around I'm chest deep in more Hebrew poetry. (I do a lot of OT studies) And in response to your latest reply.... In order to understand scriptures we must take an originalist point of view. The writer had a specific known...

    Not currently....i was talking about times back before 60AD. (It wasn't just a simple ceremony) That was what happened in order to graduate Bethgashepher....before bethmidrash. Hasn't happened for 2000 years. Today it's like you said.

    Ummmmm You really need to step outside that echo chamber you are living in. Get an expositional commentary that discusses the Hebrew language and grammar.

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    Well yes, In those days ONLY Levites were allowed to "handle" scriptures. In order to be Barmitzvah-ed you were to recite the entire 5 books of Moses without flaws. Being poetry was obviously helpful. But basically you could write your own copy of scriptures but not give them anyone else...

    The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

    EVERYTHING God and Jesus is quoted as saying (with very few notable exceptions) is poetry and said in a poetic fashion. It's not an argument....it's just what it is. But you have to speak Hebrew to get the poetry. All of the modern forms of poetry were first found in...

    2/3 minimum of the Old Testament is Hebrew poetry. The Torah, Samuel (both) Kings, and all prophecy is poetic.

    Jezebel Queen of False Prophets and the Jezebel Spirit

    King Omri of the Northern kingdom was not exactly a great king as far as God was concerned....but the Israelites loved him and surrounding kings respected him because he grew the wealth of the Northern Kingdom immensely. To a similar point that Solomon had done. So since Ahab was Omri's...
