Isaiah 9:6

Hi. For what it might add to this thread, Isaiah 9:6 (9:5 in the Hebrew) maintains identical correspondence between the Masoretic Text and the Great Isaiah Scroll found among the DSS. Although it may require an extra dose of concentration to search it out, the Great Isaiah text is should be visible ...

Early date implied by Muratorian fragment?

Although I hadn't contributed anything to the forum in over a year, I often read material others have posted. Recently I had read over the Muratorian canon and took note of a particular segment that (to me) appears to affirm an early (pre-67) dating for the book of Revelation. In advance I'll beg yo...

God's blood...

Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. Acts 20:28


Considering the discussion here, the above reference seemed worth highlighting.

Better revelation...

Wondering how a Buddhist gets freed from his/her desires if he/she doesn't want to?

Buy the truth, and sell it not...

Hello again Homer- You'd cited a question contrasting a childs obedience to earthy parents vs. obedience to God. Following the question, you'd presented what I consider to be a biblically informed answer. The next paragraph introduced the trying dilemma of a navy captain from the 60's. Indeed, I rec...

Pragmatism vs. the gospel of the Kingdom...

Homer may have suggested that it was 'good to see a topic of practical interest' - I concur with that sentiment. Hypothetical situations are often convenient imaginary tools, but reality is the field in which Christians labor. Damon, not sure if I see the picture you've painted - are you suggesting ...

Telling holy lies?

After looking at the previous posts, here are a few thoughts. The first is with respect to the biblical endorsement of Rahab's deed in hiding the spies.

Lying to the glory of God?

Scripture says that 'no lie is of the truth'. Yet, if not mistaken, some of the previous reasoning in this string of posts implies that there may be such a thing as a 'sanctified lie' - presumably in situations where the end would seem to justify the means? Following that chain of logic, wouldn't a ...
