  1. 27. victor teaches the LEAST a Christian should be expected to do is tithe - before ANYTHING, tithe. The implication is you are not a Christian if you don't tithe. The tithe is victor's sine qua non of Christian identity. Guilt trips and gas lighting all the way down.
  2. Lo shonta to this!! **My highest compliment
  3. 17. Hyperdispensationalism 18. The spiritual and intellectual retardation required to claim four crucified. 19. Four hours of content held forth over 36 hours.
  4. 15. He disparagingly and erroneously calls Jesus a bastard Jew. 16. He spiritually and physically replaces God's only begotten with YourWalk+Believing+TheBible+ChristInYou. (Boy, oh, boy! I'd hate to be victor on THAT day.)
  5. Right. I get it. Lo shonta! What's unique about this particular canon topic is the assumption (postulate) that the canon identifies itself as the canon. Still waiting for the evidence of a list of authoritative books listed within the authoritative books identified as authoritative by their own authority.
  6. Respectfully, OS, it sounds like you are addressing text types, transmission vectors and translations. These are different issues from canon. HOWEVER, the Alexandrian vs. Byzantine text type would make for a fascinating topic.
  7. Where in 2 Timothy does it list the orthodox books? Where does it say, for example, The Apocalypse of John of Patmos is right but The Apocalypse of Peter is wrong?
  8. Here it is in abababababa Canon New Oxford American Dictionary noun A collection or list of sacred books accepted as genuine the works of a particular author or artist that are recognized as genuine. the list of works considered to be permanently established as being of the highest quality The writings or other works that are generally agreed to begood, important, and worth studying. a: an authoritative list of books accepted as Holy Scripture b: the authentic works of a writer c: a sanctioned or accepted group or body of related works
  9. Just in case you weren't reading my post: Canon New Oxford American Dictionary noun A collection or list of sacred books accepted as genuine the works of a particular author or artist that are recognized as genuine. the list of works considered to be permanently established as being of the highest quality The writings or other works that are generally agreed to begood, important, and worth studying. a: an authoritative list of books accepted as Holy Scripture b: the authentic works of a writer c: a sanctioned or accepted group or body of related works
  10. Pistis Christou can be either an objective genitive (Faith in Christ) or a subjective genitive (Faith of Christ). I presume the decision is theological. I don't have a position on this, but I know it's debated among theologians. I remember being taught with great force, anger, and frustration by my TWI teacher that faith is something we have and believing is something we do, but I don't remember how pistis Christou was handled. And then there's believing faith. MOREOVER, believing is part of the equation that defines the word of God. It seemed like pistis could mean whatever whenever, according to the size of the glove and the amount of snow. Though there are other verses, these two seem especially important: Galatians 2:15-16 and Romans 3:21-26. Three questions: How do you handle the objective/subjective genitive? Asset or Liability? Lo Shonta?

  13. Like Mike's logic. Except that it is. Mike started it. He was warned against defecating in the mouth of God.
  14. Those pennies are the power. You heard the man. Eight figgers a year! It's so simple. It makes perfect sense. Did you notice the golf glove? Notice how perfectly it fits his hand? Just a tremendous fitting. A real dandy. "One at a time, of course!" Lo shonta!
  15. No apologies necessary, dear Twinky. The bull$hit is so profuse, it's impossible to keep it straight.
  16. The secret weapon is where (W-H-E-R-E) you keep those two cents. Go to the other New Testament Canon thread to find out. It's self-analyzing, perfect logic. Kinda like perfect prayer. Lo shonta!
  17. It's not a re-analysis. It's merely a straightforward analysis. Bullinger's creativity requires lots of assumptions (postulates) and glove-fitting. An honest reading doesn't require a lot of assumptions to MAKE anything fit. This will be handled in another thread.
  18. Mike's secret weapon for success. You might need to watch this over and over to fully absorb it. This is the how (H-O-W) to walk by the spurt. High level Mikaean logic here. If you can't see how this secret weapon for success makes perfect sense and fits a hand like a glove, I just don't know what else to do for you. Bless your little hearts.
  19. Well, my name is a number A piece of plastic film And I'm growin' funny flowers In my little window sill Dont you know I'm a... (song title) And my kids, they just don't understand me at all Well my wife still respects me I really misused her I am having an affair With the Random computer
  20. Bingo. There's a difference between what we like and what we know to be great. The aficionado or connoisseur is aware of that distinction. I may not care for hip hop, it just may not be my thing, but I can recognize and appreciate the greatness of Dr. Dre, TuPac, JayZ. Don't get me started on coffee. Or do. Starbucks is over roasted. It's burnt. I happen to not like it AND recognize that it's not good. But I know that not liking it has nothing to do with my judgement that it's not good. In the Pacific Northwest, that's just how they like their coffee, and I can recognize that, too. The movie is Bottle Rocket, but I doubt that will help you with the song, unless you've watched it many times.
  21. Ahhh. But were those the GREATEST? Of course, my assertion is bull$hit because it's subjective. Though, I do think the 90's were as important as the 70's for American cinema, but that's a discussion I'd be happy to have on another thread, Neophyte filmmakers is your clue. Their first film. Before they were star actors/writers/directors. Indie film. Cult classic now. James Caan would have been the only recognizable star at the release of the film, 1996. The song is from a certain invasion in the 1960s.
