Like a table is a concept or Logos. The words/reema I use to define or clarify what a table is.   This concept of a table I have is defined by having a flat 3 dimensional top a…[Read more]

Quote (SimplyForgiven @ April 11 2011,13:06)William,Rephrase your Question because Mike only defines “Angel” as Messenger.Hi D,For “aggelos”, the AKJV has “angel” 179 times and “messenger” 7 times.

Hi Istari,Let's just let it go then.  Because you could show 1000 examples of “past-present” or “future-past”, but it wouldn't make scripture #1001 automatically also a “past-present” or “future-past” scenario.  For example, Jesus didn't tell the thief that he'd be with him in paradise THAT SAME DAY, for Jesus didn't go to paradise that day.  …[Read more]
