It's funny that Frank's defense to Proverbs 8 is the feminine form of the words, yet he is willing to completely ignore the singular, masculine form of the pronouns associated with “the Word” in John 1.
Frank, if wisdom cannot be Jesus because of feminine pronouns, then the Word cannot be an “it” because of the masculine pronouns.You'll have to…[Read more]mikeboll64 replied to the topic Haiti vs New Zealand in the forum Inspirational writings & sermons 14 years, 10 months ago

That's some pretty heavy stuff, WIT. But what's the answer to my question? Do you believe that something(s) have ALWAYS existed?I assume from your last sentence that you do. Is that a correct assumption?

Quote (TimothyVI @ Dec. 16 2011,06:07)In your reply right above this one you say, “Jesus knew Judas would betray him, but that's the way it had to happen according to God's plan.”Yes, I just noticed that while re-reading what I wrote yesterday. It was a bad choice of wording. I don't think God “planned” for Judas to betray His Son. I believe…[Read more]

Quote (t8 @ Dec. 16 2011,03:11)So would it then be racist to target the white man in order to lessen white collar crime. No it would not be racist.
