Not to mention, some languages have different methods of emphasizing what is important. In Korean, for example, extra "helper words", commonly referred to as markers or postpositions, are added to help identify a particular word's grammatical function (subject, object, topic) in the context.

The entire class is built on a false premise that is revealed in the first 20 seconds. The Bible is not the revealed word and will of God. It's a collection of 66 ancient writings that have been cobbled together to promote a sense of literary agreement. It's filled with contradictions and errors. Any attempts to justify these imperfections are nothing more than linguistic sleight of hand.

They should probably just rename it the Spin Dept.

Act now! This offer ends tomorrow.

Not necessarily.

That was some serious chump change in 1985.

Have you checked them for grammar errors?

This one time, in the dead of winter, I was outside at work and, just like that, the snow directly in front of me turned a shocking yellow and had steam rising up toward the heavens. No one else witnessed it, of course.

So, if you want to receive something, you need to get a clear picture of it, stay focused, confess positives, renew your mind, speak in tongues, etc. But, if you fear something, there's no escaping it. It will find you. Live in fear of whatever it is you want to receive. BOOM! Works for saint and sinner alike,

That's just a bunch of garbled obfuscation, and I think you know that.

I don't quite understand why someone would devote 20 years of self study to a subject they deemed trivial.

Am I reading you correctly? You think mathematics only applies to the trivial elements of life? Wow! ...just...Wow!

Ya know, I'm beginning to think you're not quite the grammar expert you think you are.

I must not have been paying attention. Can you give a brief summary?

You're probably right.

Now, here's the part that puzzles me. If PFAL is the pure word, why did God allow for so many errors to find their way into it? And then there's the part about not being known since the first century. The vast majority of content is simply material that was copied from other sources, some more than a century old at the time PFAL was compiled. If it hadn't been known since the first century, how did these people hear about it before VPW? Maybe this is really the Great Mystery.

You forgot "necessarily". Somehow you have to squeeze that in there, too, or the whole thing falls apart.

In regard to cults and religions being a joke, there is no difference.

Farewell the temple master's bell His kiosk and his blackworm seed Courtship solely of his word With Eden guaranteed For now Prince Rupert's tears of glass Make saffron Sabbath eyelids bleed Scar the sacred tablet wax On which the lizards feed Source

Is this not the same as saying you believe PFAL is God-breathed?

Maybe it's a grammar thing.

How Wierwille's words became God-breathed: HERE

When I was a little boy, my Mommy told me it's not nice to fib. You know what I want to say, now? Are you a mind reader, too? On second thought, maybe you're not really the grammar expert you think you are.

You seem to be the grammar expert, so I'm asking you.

Did you notice that little word "implies"? Now couple that with "not...necessarily". It doesn't mean that some parts are and some parts aren't. It only implies that some parts may be God-breathed. Then, again, maybe none of it is God-breathed. It's not stating an absolute. There is an element of uncertainty. So, the question remains, how do you determine which parts might be God-breathed and which parts might not be God-breathed? Or, for that matter, that any of it is God-breathed. "Not-necessarily" is not an Easter egg as you call it. It's simply a common phrase that people use to indicate a lack of absolute certainty.
