Subject: Are we supposed to observe the Sabbath? |
Bible Note: Hi, Search; [DISCLAIMER: If I misrepresent anyone's training in ancient languages, correct me and I'll gladly apologize.] PMJI, but I'm trying to understand this thread. If I get it correctly, a disagreement between two people over the eternal significance of the use of passive voice in a language neither one reads "proves" that one of them is against Jesus and preaching a different gospel. Is that about it? In contrast, Tim actually does read ancient languages and can understand an entire passage in context, something I don't think either you or Kathy can do. He says (paraphrasing here) the use of passive voice neither proves nor disproves that God did the initiating. I share your distrust of experts, but I gotta go with my fellow Hoosier on this one. Neither one of you has "proven" anything. Not about the passage, anyway.... How 'bout we debate how many angels can dance on the head of a pin? I'm sure we're all equally expert on that topic, and it's nearly as significant as this one. Peace and grace, Steve aka Indiana Jones |
