Ah, so now I'm a liar? You claim I inferred it; in fact, it was you who inferred it falsely from what I did in fact say. I don't have an agenda; what's yours? |

Excuse me! I never called you liar! However you did say, implied or inferred the things I listed. Reread what you have said. I will concede you did in say it such a way that it was nearly impossible to nail down what you were saying, but the intent, purpose, came shining through. EdB |

Since you say that I did say what I in fact did not say means that you are calling me a liar. I will cease discussing this with you and turn the matter over to the webmaster. If you wish to read "intent" or "purpose" into what someone ewlse says that's between you and God. But the last thing yoiu should be doing is claiming that it was in fact my intent or purpose. My sole purpose was to study this verse to find out what it said. I only contributed one little element into the whole; the rest I found by reading what pro's in the field have said. |

So be it! Again I state I did not call you a liar! I simply took what you said and based on accepted practices of reading and comprehension restated them. If you did not say them then I and I feel safe in saying most of the forum have no idea what it is you did say. And yes I think we should cease discussing this! EdB |

"I simply took what you said and based on accepted practices of reading and comprehension restated them." For that I blame the liberal educational system; I didn't really learn how to read carefully and thoughtfully till I was in grad school. "If you did not say them then I and I feel safe in saying most of the forum have no idea what it is you did say." Isn't it amazing how quickly some will judge their experience to be the same as others? Others have emailed me to tell me they understood what I was saying quite well. When I preach even those who haven't finished high school understood me quite well. When I run my papers through a grammar checker I have to take the Bible verses out because it drags the grade level down to the 4th-6th grade; without them it is at the 9th grade level. So, I find it really difficult to understand how any thoughtful praying Christian couldn't understand my study--unless, of course, they never bothered to read it in the first place. I had one gent who has a D.Min. who was working on a Th.d. on the book of Colossians email me who stated that I was the first he had seen to have correctly understood the verse. We also had a pleasant hour or so on the phone conversing about it and he gave me a few more ideas to plug into my study! |

Now see here I go misunderstanding you, it seems like you just personally attacked me. "For that I blame the liberal educational system; I didn't really learn how to read carefully and thoughtfully till I was in grad school." What makes you think I was educated by the liberal education system and that I don't have a grad school education? “Isn't it amazing how quickly some will judge their experience to be the same as others?” My friend you are the source of much off forum... Let me say just say I'm not alone. “So, I find it really difficult to understand how any thoughtful praying Christian couldn't understand my study--unless, of course, they never bothered to read it in the first place.” First of all we weren't talking about your study but rather what you have said on this forum. Also with my humble understanding I think you said I had the comprehension level less than a 4 to 6 th grad level. I had one gent who has a D.Min. who was working on a Th.d. on the book of Colossians I have a very close relationship with a person that has a Th.d and they think you totally mishandled scripture. By the way if your not proud of your education why have you repeatedly touted,(I think 3 times you have stated you were a grad school graduate)? In fact I think you tried to put down Kalos with it. And if your not proud of your scholarship why have you told me about the guy with a D Min at least twice? Forgive me for saying this, but me thinks your proud! EdB |
