102 | If elect is not choose, then what is it? | Job 38:1 | kalos | 1788 | ||
Thank you for your sensible, scriptural posting of 03-24-2001. I would like to comment on your Note, the part where you say, "That man chooses isn't in debate, the issue is who enabled him to choose?" . . . Exactly! That man chooses is indisputable. Allow me to quote from the Baker Theological Dictionary of the Bible (p. 199, Baker Books, 1996). "In the Scriptures the term 'choose' is used of both God and human beings. With respect to human beings, it covers all human decisions. ...God also makes choices and by a large margin, the term 'choose' is used in Scripture to refer to the choices of God rather than human choices." . . . Footnote: 'Elect' means THE SAME THING AS 'choose.' Here is the dictionary definition of 'elect': "to CHOOSE (as a course of action) especially by preference ( example: might elect to sell the business)." Therefore 'choosing' equals 'election.' (Dictionary definition of 'election': "the right, power, or privilege of MAKING A CHOICE.") . . . My point: when the anti-Calvinist, anti-election, anti-everything crowd refuses to agree with the ordinary meaning of the English words 'elect' and 'choose', they make it impossible to even discuss election. |

103 | Alleged changes in the NKJV | Ps 4:1 | kalos | 123976 | ||
Alleged changes in the NKJV I am curious about the alleged changes and deletions in the NKJV. Changes to what? Deletions from what? The Greek text? The KJV of 1611? The KJV of 1629? The KJV of 1638? The KJV of 1762? The KJV of 1769? If the NKJV makes changes to and deletions from the Greek text, I'd like to see the evidence. If not, then I wouldn't worry too much about these so called changes. |

105 | What is your favorite Bible edition? | Ps 119:105 | kalos | 182771 | ||
What is your favorite Bible edition? While we're discussing tools for Bible study (ID# 182749), I would like to ask a related question. What is your favorite edition of the Bible? That is, which of your Bibles do you use the most? Notice that the question is not merely what translation do you use, though that is one part of the question. What is the title, publisher and translation of the Bible you use most? Is it a study Bible, reference Bible, niche Bible or other? What is the name of it? Is your favorite Bible large print, compact, a reference edition, etc.? Give as much or as little detail as you want to. What is it about your favorite Bible that you especially like? Is it the binding, the notes, the size of the print, the cross references, concordance, etc.? For example, your favorite might be the MacArthur Study Bible, the NASB in large print, a classic reference Bible, or parallel Bible. Tell us which it is and the title. I am eager to read your replies. Grace to all, John * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock. Psalm 27:5 (KJV) |

107 | Should abortion be permitted when... | Prov 3:13 | kalos | 104756 | ||
'Christian's values, attitudes, and beliefs are to be based on and shaped by the truths taught in the Bible. One can call it a biblical worldview.

Each of these elements requires diligence on our part as well as the illuminating ministry of the Holy Spirit (2 Tim. 2:15; John 16:13)' (www.solagroup.org). 1.

117 | MESSAGE-Good Effort, But Is It A Bible? | Eccl 12:12 | kalos | 145763 | ||
MESSAGE-Good Effort, But Is It A Bible? [The following is an excerpt from a review of THE MESSAGE by Eugene Peterson. Although not written by me, it perfectly expresses my opinion of THE MESSAGE. --Kalos] 'A Good Effort, For Whatever It Is: But A Bible, It Isn't' 'In my opinion "The Messsage" is not a bible at all, but more of a running commentary of the bible.' When you've read THE MESSAGE 'do not be persuaded you have read THE Bible; you haven't, any more than seeing "West Side Story" enables you to say you have seen "Romeo and Juliet." I'd much prefer the reader try a real Bible first in order to claim s/he's read "The Bible,"' ____________________ www.amazon.com [Note: I am intentionally posting this a second time.] |
