1 | Please explain the Trinity. | John 1:1 | Reformer Joe | 29574 | ||
Ethan: I have been involved in countercult evangelism for a decade now, and I can assure you that you are mistaken, as was anyone in an LDS chatroom making such an assertion. They use the name Jesus without reservation. And as someone whose occupation involves linguistics, I can tell you that English is not the richest language on earth today. Nor is it more complex and descriptive than NT Greek. Hebrew may be simpler, but Greek is a much richer language in its verb tenses and moods, as well as in its use of forms which reflect gender and number, which help to cleaer up a lot of the translation problems that would otherwise occur. --Joe! |

2 | Please explain the Trinity. | John 1:1 | ethan | 29649 | ||
Hi joe. Hey man i was there and thats what happened i am sorry to blow your world apart. i have to agree with you about the greek is much richer but you miss the point. which is how many words does it take in english to describe one word in Greek??? and visa vera you will find that the english language is a lot more precise to explain to the very detail of how even the Letters come to gether to make certain sounds, let alone the multi meanings of just one word in greek. but i guess it is all greek to me. Bless you. | ||||||
3 | Please explain the Trinity. | John 1:1 | Reformer Joe | 29654 | ||
Okay, I guess you are right again, Ethan. Your 15 minutes in a chat room really blows apart my ten years of studying Mormonism, involvement with and support of countercult ministries, and dozens of personal encounters with Mormon missionaries, not to mention that the official name of the organization is the Church of JESUS Christ of Latter-day Saints. Guess everyone is wrong, wrong, wrong in the face of Ethan...because he was there, man. Thanks for the correction! --Joe! |

Joe, could it be that you are a bit "green" on the "visa vera" aspect, as Ethan carefully pointed out? While you are doing your remedial studies, you might want to brush up on the "aloe vera" thing also. Please attend to these matters before you post haste! --Hank | ||||||
