Being a "Samson-ite", I read your article (whew!) with great interest as I just had a lengthy conversation with my sister, who is certain that Ray uses the most obscure meanings of Greek words to prove his points!  She , then, directed me to the BLUEBIBLE.COM where she introduced me to their GREEK lexicon
which may be useful to YOU!  She is very concerned that I am being "led astray" with these "new" vocabularies tht seem to result in different conclusions than the fundmentalists TRIED AND TRUE beliefs.
I would be especially flattered if you read my lastest posting on DOUBLE_BLIND and commented on it!

--- Quote from: John from Kentucky ---However, the most important thing is to have the Spirit of God.  God's Spirit can lead you into all truth even if you are on a desert island with no books.  There have been great Greek and Hebrew scholars who were completely ignorant about the Truths of God.

This is common knowledge here John.

Samson keep up the good work, it is obviously very edifying to many here.

2Ti 2:15  Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

1Th 4:11  And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;
1Th 4:12  That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.

I was just wondering why the Greek Orthodox believe as they do. My daughter's in-laws were born and raised in Greece. My son-in-law was five when he came to America.  This family worked hard and became very successful and was ultimately responsible for building a very large church here in Ft. Wayne, Ind. They  study the scriptures in Greek. Their faith in Jesus is not easily matched. They have many traditions of the early church and like many other cultures group together.
Why do they not question their beliefs when their translations are probably better than ours in English.
Curious, Judy

Well think of those that actually heard Jesus preach and those that heard the Apostles preach... you would think what more did they need, why didn't they of all people get it? Unless you are given the Holy Spirit to open your eyes and ears, then you are deceived and will certainly not know the truth. I would think there have been many devout people down through the centuries since Christ, who have spent their whole lives sincerely seeking the truth and never knew it, because that is not the way to understanding.

John 6:44  No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day.

The world is deceived and remain so until Christ returns and "every eye will see Him," (Rev 1:7).

mercy, peace and love
