81 | Good guides to Old Testament Manuscript | Bible general Archive 2 | Huron | 125492 | ||
Yes, judging by the lack of books regarding OT manuscripts versus the abundance of them for the NT, I'd say you are right. Just found out that the "extra space" space left in the Alexandrian manuscripts for the longer Mark ending theory is bunk. Suspected such. Huron |

82 | short and long version of Mark 16:8 | Mark 16:9 | Huron | 125426 | ||
EdB, As you may have seen from my posts, I'm going through the same thing with my investigation of bible versions and the manuscripts/texts used for each one. Generally, I believe that the NASB is the best, but there is a place in my heart for the KJV. Like what is happening with the new versions today, I realize that the KJV had its detractors when it was first printed, and that it had some corrections that were made. Nowdays though, I wonder if the latest translations have a "planned obscelesence". I noticed that my circa 1985 NASB is no longer current. Among other things they decided to use the longer versions of Luke 24:50,51. Nowdays, with gender neutral NRSV, I think we might be going a bit far. Huron |

I've enjoyed reading the works by Metzger including "Metzger's Textual Commentary on the Greek NT", and his book the, "New Testaments Transmission, Corruption, and Restoration". Does anyone know of any similar books for the Old Testament? Thanks! Huron |

According to Metzger, the longer version was added. It is not in the Siniatic, or Vaticanus manuscripts (the two oldest). However, in the foreward to my Greek Interlinear NT by Jay P. Green, he claims that although the verses from Mark 16:9 and onward aren't included in the oldest manuscripts, there is a blank space for it's inclusion in one, and extra large text to use up the space in the other. I'd never heard that before! |

88 | Good Pro Textus Receptus Book? | Bible general Archive 2 | Huron | 125279 | ||
EdB, Thanks, I had seen the second link before. Brought my hopes up that there might be some scholarly KJO/TR books, but apparently not. Huron |

89 | Good Pro Textus Receptus Book? | Bible general Archive 2 | Huron | 125262 | ||
EdB, You mentioned that soem claims by Wescott and Hort were proven false. Do you remember which ones? I'm with you, seems most pro-TR writing includes circular reasoning, character assinations, or emotional, bombastic claims. Be nice to see something well done. Huron |

90 | Good Pro Textus Receptus Book? | Not Specified | Huron | 125167 | ||
I've read some good stuff by Metzger that supports the use of the oldest manuscripts, and that supports newer English translations over those based on the Textus Receptus. Are there any really good PRO-TR books out there? Most of the stuff I've seen tends to use circular reasoning. I'd like to read a good pro-TR book to be really familiar with arguments from both sides of the aisle. Thanks! Huron |

92 | Can ANYONE believe? | Acts 10:34 | Huron | 125155 | ||
Would you say that everyone has the capacity to believe if they chose to do so after hearing the Word? Or, is this verse indicating that AFTER one believes THEN God doesn't doesn't show partiality? Thanks! Huron |

Could you deduct from this verse that EVERYONE is created with an opportunity for salvation? | ||||||
94 | Acts 16:33 and infant baptism. | Acts 16:33 | Huron | 125066 | ||
Interesting angle, but I'm not sure that Peter, Paul, and the rest of the Apostles endorsed, or even allowed people to baptize themselves for their loved ones. Actually, it's a little unclear exactly what Paul meant in this verse. In any case, as far as I can tell, it's the only time in the NT that that phrase is used. Huron |

95 | Threatens to leave if believer attends | 1 Cor 7:15 | Huron | 117506 | ||
This is in the United States. The spouse would know if the believer went to church. I think you are right about talking to a counselor. |
||||||
96 | Threatens to leave if believer attends | 1 Cor 7:15 | Huron | 117259 | ||
Yes, we are talking about a spouse. The spouse tends to threaten to leave whenever a situation that demands some cooperation/communication comes up. In this situation, the believer explained to the spouse before marriage that he/they would be going to church at least twice a month. They didn't go for a while due to various factors, but now the believer wants to attend. The spouse told the believer that they would leave if the spouse attended church. Should the believer attend and let the chips fall where they may? Huron |

97 | Threatens to leave if believer attends | 1 Cor 7:15 | Huron | 117155 | ||
What if someone threatens to leave if the believer goes to church? (I'm not talking about a situation where the person goes to church every night, I'm talking about a believer that wants to go once a week.) Should you go to church and let the person who made the threat make the choice if they want to follow through with it or not? Thanks! |

98 | Reconciling Rom 8:39 with Heb 10:26 | Rom 8:39 | Huron | 116605 | ||
I'm comfortable with that. I think that it is a reasonable position when you look at the verses mentioned along with Luke 8:13, John 10:28,29. Where exactly the line is, I guess only God knows for sure. The best we can do is to look at all the related scriptures,say that God will never forsake us, but on the other hand we must be careful to not fall away. Huron |

99 | Reconciling Rom 8:39 with Heb 10:26 | Rom 8:39 | Huron | 116509 | ||
I kicked this topic around a little more yesteday and concluded that maybe this apparent dilemna won't be solved this side of eternity. Reading 2 Pet 2:20, Hebrews 6:4 and Luke 8:13 also seem to support the possibility of leaving Christ. On the other hand John 10:28,29 could be construed to support the other viewpoint. To sum up, I've come to the conclusion that: A) we could leave Christ if we chose to and B)short of leaving Christ, our sin won't separate us from his family. Huron |

100 | Reconciling Rom 8:39 with Heb 10:26 | Rom 8:39 | Huron | 116398 | ||
I'm having a hard time reconciling Romans 8:39 with Hebrews 10:26. I'm thinking that one solution is that while it may be possible to walk away from the Lord, nothing external of that relationship can cause us to lose the love God has for us. Also, are the "love of God" and salvation necessarily the same thing? It's also possible that I'm not reading Hebrews 10:26 correctly. This "receiving the knowledge of the truth", is that knowledge about Christ, or is it the born again believer? Thanks for any insight you can give this puzzled believer. Huron |
