1161 | Vain Babbling | 2 Tim 2:16 | srbaegon | 191983 | ||
Hello Parable, My statement stands--Pelikan cannot say that with any certainty. It is conjecture. Steve |

Hello Parable, I would had I cited any of John Calvin's remarks. Steve |
||||||
1163 | Vain Babbling | 2 Tim 2:16 | srbaegon | 191991 | ||
Hello Parable, Of course Acts was written after it happened (even a matter of days after perhaps), and the same could be said for the gospels. Pelikan's statement leads one to believe that the entirety of the NT was written after all doctrinal tradition was laid down by the church. That is absurd. Steve |

Hello Parable, If nothing else, you are well-read--Robert Frost. But may I again remind you that this is a Study Bible Forum, not a literary forum. If you wish to make the literary allusions, please cite Scripture as well. Steve |

1165 | Vain Babbling | 2 Tim 2:16 | srbaegon | 192013 | ||
Hello Parable, The initiator was giving historical commentary from a theologian who is well-known and respected even if one disagrees with him. It has already been established as Bible-based by the church at-large and needs no further defense. Steve |

1166 | Vain Babbling | 2 Tim 2:16 | srbaegon | 192014 | ||
Hello Parable, I have read two of Pelikan's historical works and enjoyed both. I simply disagree with his statement. Steve |

1167 | Good-bye, NIV | 2 Tim 3:16 | srbaegon | 32900 | ||
Hi Joe I'm afraid there is probably is enough market. It could be they are trying to pull from those who may see NRSV "as less than desirable" but don't want to change because there's nothing else out there with such inclusive language. BTW, NRSV is widely popular in the old "mainstream" denominations (i.e. Presbyterian, Methodist, Lutheran) which have liberal leanings. It's market is small but solid. Steve |

1168 | Good-bye, NIV | 2 Tim 3:16 | srbaegon | 32905 | ||
Care for your 18 cents change? I agree completely. I was disappointed to find someone I respect (Dr. John Armstrong) recommending it. I wondered if he had read it before making his comments. Steve |

1169 | Is the Bible itself evil? | 2 Tim 3:16 | srbaegon | 135007 | ||
Hello nevermind, Welcome! :-) Hank may be staunch, but he's no fanatic. You must understand that your opening statements questioned the accuracy of the Bible. In so doing, you violated forum guidelines. That's why your motives were questioned. I believe kalos gave you a good start as to why the Bible is what it claims to be (the word of God). I'm curious about this statement: "The god you seem to think exists, is a god that will punish for belief!" What did you mean here? Steve |

Hello nevermind, I was away for the weekend, but Tim was nice enough to pick up the thread and respond with some good thoughts. I hope your questions are answered adequately. Steve |

1171 | Translating 'Tradition' | 2 Tim 3:16 | srbaegon | 170917 | ||
Hello Robin, If you had investigated every use of 'tradition', you would see that it pertains to a body of teaching that is handed down/over to someone else. It can be either positive or negative. There is no conspiracy. Steve |

1172 | ALL things? | 2 Tim 3:16 | srbaegon | 194099 | ||
Hello miller521, I am uncomfortable saying that God still creates men. Using Biblical language I will say that God formed people in the womb knowing some would be murders, etc. and planning accordingly. Steve |
||||||
1173 | ALL things? | 2 Tim 3:16 | srbaegon | 194107 | ||
Hello miller521, First, many people think predestination is fatalism where God determines everything about you and your life so that you have no choices. Not so with God as seen in Romans 8:29 (ESV) For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. Here we are predestined in the end to be conformed to the image of the Son. No fatalism there. Second, all are born with a sin nature as a consequence of Adam's sin. I suppose God could interrupt that cycle, but then he would not be true to himself or his word. How someone exhibits the sin nature (the individual sins) is not predetermined by God but foreknown by him. He therefore works all things for good to those who love God. And God always has his final goal in mind--all things gathered together in the Son to his praise. Steve |

Hello azure, It's the verse at the top of the window--2 Tim 4:11. Steve |

1175 | The Results of the "New Gospel" | Titus 1:16 | srbaegon | 187555 | ||
Hello Doc, Pardon my ignorance, but what is the "New Gospel" mentioned in your post? Steve |
||||||
1176 | baptism regenerate? | Titus 3:5 | srbaegon | 132273 | ||
Hello Country Girl, I think you are confusing regeneration (justification) with sanctification. We are counted righteous when we believe. Gen 15:6 (ESV) (See Rom 4:3) And [Abram] believed the Lord, and he counted it to him as righteousness. We can't get any more righteous from that point. We--with God's working in and through us--do work on our spiritual lives. Phil 2:12-13 (ESV) Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, [13] for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure. The verses you quoted are also part of the sanctification process. Steve |
||||||
1177 | baptism regenerate? | Titus 3:5 | srbaegon | 132318 | ||
Hello Country Girl, I also think the Bible is its own best commentary. However, I start at the immediate context of the verses in question. Matt 19:28-30 is speaking of the future kingdom of God on earth. There will be a regeneration of the world at that time. This hasn't been realized yet. Titus 3:4-7 speaks of our personal salvation as it has already occurred. So, although the same word is used in both, the thing being regenerated and the time of regeneration are both different. It's not a direct comparison. I agree with the balance of your post concerning growth to maturity in Christ. Steve |
||||||
1178 | baptism regenerate? | Titus 3:5 | srbaegon | 132364 | ||
Hello Country Girl, Not all. I agree with the circumstances you mentioned, but you forgot to take into account that the Lord changed the subject to speak of the future kingdom. The word "regeneration" in this case has nothing to do with personal salvation. Again, regeneration is not a process, sanctification is. Steve |

1179 | Hebrews 6:6 explained | Hebrews | srbaegon | 41926 | ||
Hello Tim I went back and read your note to Sir Pent (I miss having him around). Your listing of the participial phrases was confirmed by a local instructor in a Hebrews class I'm taking. He also noted the meaning of the word "taste". My question is (and you've probably heard it before): Could this not be a correlation to the parable of the Sower and four seeds? This would account for the apparent life when indeed there wasn't any. Your thoughts? Steve |
||||||
1180 | Aren't the elect commanded to repent? | Hebrews | srbaegon | 45204 | ||
Hello John I don't thin the apostle is using "world" in a substantially different way. In both the gospel and epistle he is quoting/stating comparisons--between believers and everyone else. Tim might know better. Steve |
