Re: Preferred Bible Translation
As I understand it, when translating from one language to another, there is no such thing as a "word for word" translation. For some words must be translated into several words in the other language and vice versa.

Re: God is Love and the Trinity
Didn't Jesus Himself indicate a unitarian view of God when He called His Father the "only true God" in His prayer in John 17:3?

Re: "Behold I come soon"
That sounds an awful lot like the second coming of Christ to me, and that's future.Revelation 22:12 “Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me, to repay everyone for what he has done.

Re: Hypocrisy
I suggest you look at the Wikipedia article. Although there is more security where the border is adjacent to a city, most of the border has no fences, watchtowers, or guards.

Re: Animals on the ark
Considering the immense size of the ark, I see no reason why the ark could not have held representatives of all basic animal species . For example today's dogs of every breed, as well as wolves, jackals, and foxes may have all descended from a single dog-like species, ... and so with all other group...

Re: Church Authority
Acts 14:23 And when they had appointed elders for them in every church... Dwight, people seem to think that the Church at a particular city consisted of just one congregation. Could it be, for example, that the Church at Ephesus consisted of several congregations with just one overseer in each? So ...
