But John 3:16 does NOT say: " “"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that every single human being who ever lived should not perish but have everlasting life.”

Sorry, I should have asked: "How do you think it may "change the history of Christianity"?

I have read the article your link takes us to. How do you think it will "change the history of Christianity"?

Why "the Anti-John Hater" ? Romans 9:13 makes no mention of John.

So it seems you really mean "Every man is not allowed to teach. Only those appointed by God may do so." When you wrote "Man is not allowed to teach," I thought you meant, "No man is allowed to teach." I don't think everybody in every church thinks they can teach, though I do agree that tot...

Yes, I agree with that. God does appoint pastors and teachers in the church. But that is different to what you said before. You wrote: "Man is not allowed to teach when it comes to the Word of God. "

True, Esau did, but long before that happened, God had already said, before Jacob and Esau were born, that Esau would serve Jacob: “Now Isaac pleaded with the LORD for his wife, because she was barren; and the LORD granted his plea, and Rebekah his wife conceived. But the children struggled...

So why did Jesus Christ appoint teachers in His church?: “And He Himself gave some [to be] apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,” (Eph 4:11 NKJV) “And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that...

True, but elsewhere we are told that the natural man (the sinner dead in trespasses and sins) cannot receive the things of the Spirit of God, so how can the natural man believe those things?

No they don't. They deny that sinful man has the ability in himself to exercise faith - they need God to work on their hearts. They look at verses such as Ephesians 2:4-5 as supporting this: “But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were...

I disagree about "baptize". It is an English word, though based on a Greek one. Many English words have their origin in another language (anorak, shampoo, brioche, to give just three examples), but they are still English words. I agree that "tongue" was used for "language." And "verily"...

I think that the problem arises, not with words that we don't use any more (we can easily look their meanings up), but in words that are still in use today, but with different meanings to what they had when the KJV was translated. An example is the word "prevent." Now, that word means to stop...

I think it will be different for each person. The devil will want to attack us at our weakest point, and my weak point may be entirely different to yours. From experience, I can say that for me, it has been particularly when something has caused me to feel disheartened, sad, or upset, or when...

But surely the fact that the New Testament was originally written in Greek, and had to be translated into English, means that it can be beneficial to know what the original Greek word(s) meant. For example, the English word "love" is used to translate a number of different Greek words. Agape...
