Subject: Did I answer your question BradK? |
Bible Note: Hey Brad, The reason I said look at john 8:24 in the Good News Bible was an example of how humanity can twist scripture to fit their bias. I think this is also the case for translating the meaning of the Tetragrammaton in Exodus 3:14 to "I am that I am". I responded to Tim (post ID 234494) if you want to read my response. I know you said that Tim has already given a "well-rounded" answer but I would strongly disagree. If you think that the verb "hayah" should be translated "I AM" then so be it. Your taking a 1 in 72 chance. And this 1 in 72 chance is connecting Exodus 3:14 to John 8:24 and perverting the gospel I have come to know. I know you say his answer is "well-rounded" but I don't see how. It boggles my mind if you agree with him. I love how you end your posts: Speaking the Truth in Love. That's what I'm doing. The truth to the gospel is sooooo important! Please Brad, don't take Tim's word for it and check into this stuff. There are so many great online Bible tools! God Bless, Andy |
