1 | How is the Bible the Word of God? | Ezra 9:2 | ischus | 115734 | ||
Hank, Just so you know, I interperted your last post as somewhat sarcastic. I apologize if this is not so, but on the assumption that it was, let me say that I will take complete blame for how old I am. I know this is not your fault- it is totally mine. Howver, I have read the same bible as you have. I am old enough to read and write and think. I know that I am just a little kid to you, but I think that there were some who saw Timothy in this way as well. Now to the point: Theo- "God" pneustos- "spirit, breathe" I find it interesting that you have arrived at the exact definition of this word. Could you please explain it to me? I surely don't know what it means, and I think that if someone says that they do, they are kidding themself... but I am curious as to your definition. By the way, I have never denied the inspiration of the bible or God's part in it at any time on any post in this forum on purpose. If I have given that impression, I recant. What I am saying is that I do not go along with a verbal, plenary view of inspiration, and I don't see how we can use 2 Tim to support it. Let me just say that My instructors have taught me that the bible is the verbal, plenary, inerrant, inspired word of God. I know the full argument entirely. There is no need to present it to me. ischus |

2 | How is the Bible the Word of God? | Ezra 9:2 | Morant61 | 115742 | ||
Greetings Ischus! While the exact method may not be clear, the meaning of the word is very clear. It was used in the classics of the operation of the muse upon the artist so that their works were divine. In the same way, 2 Timothy 3:16 (as Peter does) is simply making the case that Scripture is primarily a result of God's will, not man's. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Tim, TDNT is good, but You can't define a word by it's etymology. I know the concept is God working with man, and I agree with it. The only thing that we differ in is how much God, and how much man. I don't mean to cut this short, but I am about 81 percent dead right now so I need to retire. I look forward to continuing this tomor... |
