Quote (Ed J @ July 30 2012,22:37)(“AKJV Bible”)    God blessEd J (Joshua 22:34)http://www.holycitybiblecode.orgEd J,I have to smile s what you call the AKJV is not the literal AKJV, but only a later day revision of it; just like the NKJV is.  I do not believe King James was even still alive at the time.

Wakeup,Quote This is something new to me.Where is all that written?I paraphrased what is written.The words “It is written that the new man is created in the form of God as regards the obedience to and the set aside of his Word” express the same idea as Ephsians 4:24.The words “God does this by writing the Word on a persons heart and placing the…[Read more]

Wakeup,It is written that the new man is created in the form of God as regards the obedience to and the set aside of his Word. God does this by writing the Word on a persons heart and placing the Word in them. In this way God's Word becomes flesh; even as he revealed beforehand.It was done first with Jesus; so that he would become the First of…[Read more]

Mike,There are times you think you have a point which I think is foolishness.  One such is going to Descartes' words which equated thinking to existence.  In this example Descartes words placed in a different context take on a different meaning.What are you doing?I think.Are you considering?I think therefore I am.Why would you think you could f…[Read more]

Mike,Quote Remember the two deals I offered you.  Are you bailing on the first one because you can't find a sane person in the whole world who thinks “I am” means “I am THINKING” in Descartes' statement? I bail because it has become a useless conversation.  It has become useless because it is irrelevant as I have already pointed to Scripture w…[Read more]

Mike,You are correct that “perfected” is an interpretive translation; the “to become” is more literal. I have come across a lot of aorist that are not translated as simple past tenses. I have already quoted several aorist infinitives that are not translated past tense. Perceived context appears to be what influences the experts’ choice to…[Read more]

Mike,Quote In the case of Descartes' statement, there is no “inferred word”.  One doesn't have to say, I am EXISTING, Kerwin, for the words “I am”, in and of themselves, MEAN “I EXIST”.But I will make you a deal:  If you can find ANYONE on the face of the earth who has opined that Descartes' statement means “I think, therefore I am THINKING”, w…[Read more]

To all,Here are some Scriptures that use an aorist infinitive middle:Luke 1: 19And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.

Quote (mikeboll64 @ July 29 2012,23:30)Also Kerwin,You have yet to address this:Do you agree that the statement, “I think, therefore I am” means, “I think, therefore I exist”?  YES or NO?Mike,I have addressed in two different ways.1) I am x where x is the inferred word depending on context.a} I think therefore I am b} I think therefore I am 2)…[Read more]
