Bible Note: Greetings Danieln! Good evening my friend! Allow me to touch upon your responses and then ask a question so that I can respond to your points. Your Responses: 1) Definitely not a enough data to be definitive, but two out of three are conclusive - so...! 2) My point on this one was simply that the phrase "Amen, I say to you" is always followed by what was said, without any intervening words. So, we never see a case like you made for Luke 23:43. 3) Again, this isn't conclusive, but almost everyone is in agreement. Sometimes the majority is right! :-) 4) The 'Amen' is sufficient to stress what He said. My question: Which group are you affiliated with my friend? There are several different groups which teach soul sleep, but each one is a little different. Knowing which one would help me to be informed in my responses to you. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
