  Yes, it does seem to me that you let your theology force itself upon the
  passage.  We all bring such with us, but we should try to let the
  passage speak for itself.  I certainly do not disagree with the theology
  you bring, but when it blinds you to other issues being brought forth,
  that is troublesome to me.

  I think I am well aware of what I bring with me, but if not, it seems
  like nobody will step up to the plate and tell me about it.  Seems like
  too many think it too rude to tell David Miller that he is wrong about
  this and why he is wrong.
 
  Look, you never addressed my main question.  I never objected to word
  order at all, but you gave a long lecture about how word order does not
  matter.  Fine.  No problem there.  My problem was with how you perceived
  pas to be modifying oidamen.  I have been taught and have observed
  in the Greek Bible that adjectives always agree in case, gender, and
  number with the words they modify.  So if this word was being used to
  modify oidamen as you say, it should be plural instead of singular.
  In other words, the word would have been rendered pantes instead of
  pas.  Therefore, I reject your translation on this basis.  If you say
  fine, and leave it at that, then I guess life goes on.  However, I think
  a truly honest discussion would consider this point and attempt to help
  me understand my error, or you would recognize that you have brought too
  much of your theology into play here and are missing the aspect that
  John is bringing out here, and that is how Christ becomes incarnated
  within us, how we partake of his divine nature, and how it finds
  expression through us.  We truly receive power to become sons of God, as
  John mentions in his gospel.
 
  I also asked you to show some passages which use pas as a modifier in
  the way that you suggest, but your response offered none.  This is a
  very common word, used more than 1200 times.  I have checked many and I
  can't find any.  I can only assume from your silence that you have never
  seen it either.  I have brought to you other passages that have used
  pas in connection ho and seems to translate it well as whosoever.
  No comment from you about that.
 
  In this last post, you seem to want to force pas as a modifier and do
  not realize that adjectives often stand alone.  Mounce terms this being
  either adjectivally or substantivally.  Obviously I take the
  position that pas is used substantivally here, but you seem to see no
  option for that.
 
  I presented the interlinears, hoping for you to provide your own, and
  perhaps from there lead to a translation that is appreciative of the
  words used in the text.  I was a little confused by your reference to
  transliteration when it seemed that you perhaps meant the interlinear
  translation.  You seemed to agree with the interlinears I provided, yet
  your translation strays very far away from it.  You claim liberty to do
  this because a transliteration is not a translation.  Ok.  How about
  then providing me with other Greek scholars fluent in Greek who would
  translate this passage as you have.  I have searched dozens of
  translations

Based on what I read in the Bible, I believe that once a person has 
committed him/her self to follow Christ, sin will no longer be the PATTERN 
of their life.  If they are in Christ, they will hate sin as He does.  If 
they are filled with the Holy Spirit, they will have the ability to never 
sin again.  Still, hating sin and having the ability to live a perfect life 
does not guarantee a sinless life; as most of us can testify.  That is why 
we need a Savior.  If you hate sin and still screw up on occasion, you have 
an advocate to plead your case, and mercy and grace are available.  If sin 
is the pattern of your life, to me that is an indication that you are not 
right with your creator and you are very likely bound for Hell.

TT’ers,



My son, Todd, and his wife, Shirley, have 3 daughters.  Gretchen (to be 6
this July 4th), Heidi (just turned 4), and Sofie (just turned 2).  When
Shirley was pg. with Sofie two years ago (Gretchen was 3 ½) they were all
hoping for a boy (weren’t sure what it would be), and talking about a baby
boy, etc.  Shirley said all of a sudden one day when they were talking like
that, Gretchen looked at her seriously and said, “No, Mommy.  This baby is
going to be a girl. The next one will be a boy.”   Now Shirley is pg. 
again,
and this time they asked ultrasound tech to tell them the sex.  It’s a boy!
:-)  Question: Can a 3 yr old girl have a prophetic gift? (Or did she just
have a 50:50 chance, and got it right?)



Also, last year they explained the gospel clearly to Gretchen, and she
prayed to be born again.  Then they said she started asking about their
neighbors, one by one, wanting to know if they are saved, too.  Todd 
Shirley said they weren’t exactly sure whether the neighbors were saved or
not.  Gretchen then cried and begged until they gave her permission to go 
to
each neighbor’s house, knock on the door, and tell them that Jesus loves
them, and they needed to ask Jesus into their hearts.  Then she was happy.
What a pure heart children have when they are raised in a godly home!



Todd  Shirley don’t allow the girls to watch TV, they homeschool, 
(Gretchen
was reading at 4 yrs, now Heidi is reading, too), and they of course are
very involved in church and homeschooling groups.  Last week they were not
able to go on their usual trip with the church group to visit and minister
at the local nursing home.  Gretchen cried, heartbroken, about it.  She 
just
loves going! Please pray for Todd’s whole family, including the new baby 
boy
(due in October).  Shirley has had migraine headaches with this pregnancy.
Please pray for their protection, and for the Lord to bless, prosper, and
use them mightily.  Thanks so much.

Just because YOU don't understand it (over

This research did not come to me for

much of your husband's alleged expertise did he receive (or does he provide) FOR 
FREE? What I've offered you is a BARGAIN compared to anything medicine 
offers. I've put up so you can shut up.

Also, I don't know ANY incurable 
diseases. As one of my early mentors and teachers, Dr. John Christopher, 
noted, "There are no incurable diseases but there are incurable people." 
Again, you don't make sense speaking of someone recovering from Crohn's and then 
calling it incurable.

I've NEVER known a case of carpal tunnel

MUCH that medicine says can't be done. Most of those accomplishments have

OK, I'll start ...

The book of Yacov ... y'all probably still think this NT book was written 
by and named after 'James' ...

"Yacov, a servant of The Mighty One and of Adonay YahShua Messiah, to the twelve tribes 
which are scattered abroad, greeting."

King Jimmy of 1611 was not a nice man (to put it very mildly). It was 
very difficult to get him to agree to the translation work named in his 
honor. The translators (credited far too highly than they ought) 
manipulated text at times to suit their purposes and theology (though still 
better than just about every other translation since then -- I personally prefer 
the exegeses version which is the only one I know of since 
KJV to stick to the same manuscripts as KJV that ALSOwas translated by a 
Holy Spirit filled believer [as evidenced by his speaking in other tongues 
asTheSpirit gave utterance] )!.

The book of Yacov was one of the bargaining chips to persway (teehee) his 
majesty. I've heard it said that this was the one that finally swung him 
over to back the work.

"Yo, King, one of the writings in Scripture beareth thy name."

Yacov actually anglicizes to Jacob, but, HEY, the lie was for a good cause 
...

The book of Yacov was the very first of the NT writings to be penned. 
It used to be listed right up near the front, too ... got shuffled w-a-a-a-y 
back 'cause it was much too strong on its law and works TRUTH emphasis. Ye 
ol' drunkard Luther even campaigned for its complete removal.

Now, NOTICE that in the very first words Yacov addressed this writing to 
the twelve tribes scattered abroad.

Who ever said the tribes of Ysrael were lost, anyway? Yacov knew 
about them and where they were. IT'S ALL IN THE BOOK, and right in the 
very opening of this NT book within THE BOOK!

So how's that for a start for ya, John, my comments coveredgreek discussions, personal observations, contextual comments 
(history, date, cultural applications, etc. ) as well 
as whatever comes to mind.

Antoine Bechamp French biologist1816 - 1908 


Introduction

  Bechamp was one of France's most prominent and active researchers and 
  biologists. He taught in universities and medical schools, and published 
  widely on cell biology, disease, botany and related subjects. His would 
  probably be a household name today if it wasn't for the activities of one Louis Pasteur, who 
  history has treated very kindly indeed, considering his fake science, his 
  tendency to steal ideas (mainly from Bechamp), falsify experimental data, and

I've NEVER known a case of carpal

a woman with an "incurable" case of genital herpes brought to me and that 
was cleared up, too (still have a very nice thank you note from that

  Introduction
  
Bechamp was one of France's most prominent and active researchers and 
biologists. He taught in universities and medical schools, and published 
widely on cell biology, disease, botany and related subjects. His would 
probably be a household name today if it wasn't for the activities of one Louis Pasteur, who 
history has treated very kindly indeed, considering his fake science, his 
tendency to steal ideas (mainly from Bechamp), falsify experimental data, 
and in general make claims which had no basis in fact. 
I'm not running off at the mouth by saying the above. It's all quite well 
documented - Bechamp and Pasteur were both members of the French Academy of 
Sciences, and the papers they submitted, and their correspondance, both to 
each other and to other people, were all recorded. Even their verbal 
exchanges survive in the minutes of the meetings. 
To cut a long story short, and it is a long story, Pasteur

Wow! That seems like such a simple question, but it would take pages to

I believe that you can throw it away.
The Bible teaches that the same one who saved you is able to keep you, 
but it does not say that He will force you to stay against your will.  I 
offer as an example a pastor, who a few years back, resigned  as 
minister of his church.  The reason he gave was that he no longer 
believed what he had been preaching.  He was a believer, now he is not.  
Had he died prior to making his decision to no longer believe, he would 
have gone to Heaven.  Now his future appears to be the lake of fire.  I 
think that this is rare compared to those who at one time claimed or are 
claiming to be Christians, only to show their true colors after being 
tested over time, but yes, it does happen, and when it does, I believe 
that that person is no longer saved.  God will not force anyone to spend 
eternity with Him.
Hope this answers your question at least to some degree.

King Jimmy of 1611 was not a nice man (to put it very mildly). It was very difficult to get him to agree to the translation work named in his honor. The translators (credited far too highly than they ought) manipulated text at times to suit their purposes and theology (though still better than just about every other translation since then -- I personally prefer the exegeses version which is the only one I know of since KJV to stick to the same manuscripts as KJV that ALSO was translated by a Holy Spirit filled believer [as evidenced by his speaking in other tongues as The Spirit gave utterance] )!.
 
The book of Yacov was one of the bargaining chips to persway (teehee) his majesty. I've heard it said that this was the one that finally swung him over to back the work.
 
"Yo, King, one of the writings in Scripture beareth thy name."
 
Yacov actually anglicizes to Jacob, but, HEY, the lie was for a good cause ...


I didn't know this.
 

The book of Yacov was the very first of the NT writings to be penned. It used to be listed right up near the front, too ... got shuffled w-a-a-a-y back 'cause it was much too strong on its law and works TRUTH emphasis. 

A couple of other bits of new info for me. 

Ye ol' drunkard Luther even campaigned for its complete removal.

 
Now, NOTICE that in the very first words Yacov addressed this writing to the twelve tribes scattered abroad.
 
Who ever said the tribes of Ysrael were lost, anyway? Yacov knew about them and where they were. IT'S ALL IN THE BOOK, and right in the very opening of this NT book within THE BOOK!

Yes again.



 
So how's that for a start for ya, John, my comments covered greek discussions, personal observations, contextual comments (history, date, cultural applications, etc. ) as well as whatever comes to mind. 


See how things go when you are a nice guy. I am always learning that lesson. Appreciated.

Lance wrote:
 Please tell us with as much clarity and precision as 
 is possible the THIS you're believing.
 ... don't quote scripture.

I'll try to take a few minutes to explain my basic understanding, but I
sure hope that this does not sound like I am trying to be divisive.
Please consider what I am about to say as a rough draft of my
perspective and not something which I walk around thinking about all the
time.  I have been considering your request from the first time you
shared it, and a brother at church today shared a message which
stimulated me to present it to you in the following fashion.

I have observed Christians approach the problem of sin at two different
levels.  

First there are those who upon recognizing the problem of sin, see Jesus
as the answer out of the dreaded dilemma of facing God on judgment day.
They recognize that their own personal sin has separated them from God,
but they also have learned and believe that Jesus paid the price for
their sin so that they will inherit eternal life despite their sin.
Then when they sin, their conscience condemns them, but they see this
condemnation as being a lie from the devil because they reason that the
blood of Jesus has covered their sin.  They might describe this
situation in the following way:  the devil tries to point to what I did
last week and convince me that I'm no good, but I tell him he is a liar
and that Jesus has paid the price and that one day Jesus will return and
change me and then at that time I will be a new creature and never walk
this way again.  In other words, they look at their continued defeat in
the area of morality as something that will always continue until the
second coming of Christ.  They consider any sense of condemnation for
their sin as a lie of Satan in their life.  They do not deal with the
sin, but have a hope that one day Jesus will return and make them new
creatures which will not have the same temptations as they have now.
They look at the solution of having victory over sin as being the
removal of the temptation of sin.

It seems to me that this approach perpetuates what historians have
called the Messiah complex.  It is the idea that when Messiah comes, all
things will be restored.  It continues to look to a future when
restoration is done, and it does not see moral restoration as something
that has already happened with Christ's first coming.

The second way that some Christians approach sin is to see that Christ
came not only to forgive sin, but to break the power of sin in our life.
This approach perceives that the way to holiness has been made right
now, and that we do not need to wait until Christ returns the second
time in order to be made free from sin.  While sin continues to be ever
present in the sense that we will always be tempted while abiding in
these corruptible bodies, we can live a life of victory over those
temptations in every situation.  

The way the second approach to sin is dealt with is very different than
the first approach.  The condemnation and guilt that is associated with
sin is not looked upon as a lie of the devil, but as a direct
consequence of the sin.  If I were to sin today, I fully expect to
experience guilt from sin, even though Jesus has died for me and atoned
for my sin.  I could say a lot more here about the atonement and its
effect on past, present and future sins, but I think it best to skip
that for right now.  My point right now is that I deal with sin in a
most serious way.  The idea of experiencing guilt and a darkening of the
conscience and a dimming of the communion and fellowship with the Father
is a huge motivation for me not to sin again.  I deal with sin by hating
it and forsaking it, not by some knowledge that when Jesus comes again
he will transform me and make a way for me to have victory over sin.  I
see victory over sin as a reality for right now, because of Jesus
Christ.  I can be a New Creature right now.  I don't have to wait for
it.  It is a reality right now.  I am greatly encouraged and blessed to
hear this news.  It is the GOOD NEWS, the BEST NEWS that I have ever
heard in my whole life.  More importantly, this good news has a reality
when it is believed, and it is experienced in a most powerful way within
the conscience of man.  Christ truly has made a way for the conscience
to be perfected.  I can't prove it to anyone except by testifying to its
reality, hoping they will believe it, and then when they experience it,
they will see that what I have testified is really true.

Well, this is a brief and very rough sketch.  I hope it helps.  I would
have been much more comfortable sharing Scripture along with it, which
to me is filled with the truth of what I just shared.  Nevertheless, I
have tried to answer you in the manner that you requested.  I pray it
helps you understand better where I am coming from.

Peace be with you.

about 0.96%.

Of course, we would have to figure in the probablility that the mother and

 I've NEVER known a case of carpal tunnel syndrome, acid

 I had a woman with an incurable case of genital herpes 
 brought to me and that was cleared up, too (still have a 
 very nice thank you note from that one).  I've accomplished 
 MUCH that medicine says can't be done.  Most of those 
 accomplishments have been by way of info about 50 years 
 old and older.  Raised up 8 children without doctor bills.  
 Hosea 4:6 is still true, today.

Chris, I think you probably have some helpful information for all of us,
but the packaging of it is somewhat troublesome.  It is like everyone is
the devil who does not agree with you in everything you say.  

Personally, I live similar to you in that I don't run off to medical
doctors.  I think the medical community tends to get too much of a free
pass in our society and alternatives are not given their due
appreciation.  I fully realize that if someone goes to a doctor and
dies, people think nothing of it and it is assumed that all that could
be done for them was done.  However, if somebody does not go to the
doctor but prays continually for healing and dies, people get up in arms
about how they should have went to the doctor.  Truly our society
respects doctors more than prayer when it comes to the healing of the
body.

I personally like the nutrition approach that you take.  I wish you
lived nearby so that I could talk with you more about it.  I believe
that I would probably benefit from your knowledge in this area.  I would
surely visit someone like you before I would visit a medical doctor.  I
like the idea of eating right and preventing problems before they happen
rather than shooting drugs into the body after there is a problem.

Nevertheless, it seems to me like there is something wrong with the
attitude you have about being God's prophet of nutrition and the whole
rest of society is living the abominable lie.  The interesting thing is
that I actually think you might be right about a great many things, but
the attitude you carry makes it very unpalatable.  It also makes me
suspicious about you not being right.  I'm just being open and honest
with you.  The Scriptures speak of Jesus being full of grace and truth.
Read John's words following:

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his
glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace
and truth.
(John 1:14 KJV)

I have often dwelt upon this passage.  What about Christ's life
impressed John this way?  It seems to me that Jesus had an attitude that
might be expressed as being full of grace and truth.  I pray that both
you and I might touch this spirit and adopt this attitude in all that we
learn from the Father above.  I realize that men like Balaam were right
about a great many things, but their attitude stunk and they became
known as false prophets because of it, not because they spoke falsehood,
but because they did not pursue a glory that was full of grace and truth
in all that they did.

I like the following passage too:

Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time. Let
your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know
how ye ought to answer every man.  (Colossians 4:5-6 KJV)

Do you recognize any possibility for improvement here, or am I now
considered a reprobate fool for even speaking to you in this manner?

Peace be with you.

  and told a dispatcher: "I've just killed my boys."

TYLER, 
Texas - A mother who bashed her sons' heads with heavy rocks, killing two of 
the boys, was so delusional she thought the Lord told her to do it, her 
attorney said Monday in opening statements at her murder trial."Does 
she follow what she believes to be God's will or does she turn her back on 
her God?" defense attorney F.R. "Buck" Files Jr. asked the jury of eight men 
and four women.Deanna Laney, a 39-year-old stay-at-home mother, has 
pleaded innocent by reason of insanity to charges of murdering 8-year-old 
Joshua and 6-year-old Luke and causing serious injury to Aaron, 14 months 
old at the time. Prosecutors are not seeking the death penalty.The 
deeply religious East Texas woman who home-schooled her children in the tiny 
town of New Chapel Hill, 100 miles southeast of Dallas, wept uncontrollably 
and shook her head, at times burying her face in a tissue, as she listened 
to testimony and prosecutors showed gruesome photographs of her slain 
children.Her husband, who has supported her, sat a few rows behind 
with friends and family.Prosecutors contend Laney knew right from 
wrong when she killed her children last Mother's Day weekend, despite 
opinions from two psychiatric experts for the defense, two for the 
prosecution and one for the judge - all of whom said Laney was legally 
insane."The issue of sanity is tried in the court, not the 
hospitals," District Attorney Matt Bingham told the jury.Prosecutors 
played a tape of a 911 call in which Laney, in her high, dainty voice, 
calmly told a dispatcher after midnight on May 10: "I just killed my boys." 
She also described the color of her house and directed authorities to her 
home."I just did what I had to do," she told the 
dispatcher.Later in the tape, she appeared to doubt whether she 
should have beaten the baby, saying, "I don't think I did right by Aaron." 
She later said, "I don't think I was supposed to kill him."In his 
opening statement, the district attorney told the jury: "The evidence will 
show you that the last thing Josh and Luke Laney ever saw was their mom with 
a rock over their head and the last thing they ever felt was that rock 
crashing over their head."Bingham said Laney attacked the baby 
first, hammering his head with a 41/2-pound rock she had hidden under 
his crib. When he began crying, Laney's husband, Keith, woke up and found 
his wife standing over the baby."Everything's OK," she told 
him.He assumed his wife was changing a diaper and went back to bed. 
Laney then struck the baby again, and after hearing a gurgling from the 
blood in Aaron's throat, she covered him with a pillow and left the room, 
Bingham said."Aaron Laney will never be the same," said Bingham, 
adding that the boy's vision has been impaired and he will never live 
independently.With Aaron's blood on her pajamas, Laney then woke up 
Luke, led him outside the family's rural brick home and asked him to put his 
head on a large rock, the prosecutor said."He does what his Mommy

No change at all.

   Well and good comments, 
  Terry, but not everyone accepts the "givens" of religious belief as 
  we do. Since the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ are in one way 
  or other tied up with the shroud, it is a critical evidence of the reality 
  of the Savior's mission on the earth--not merely that he lived, died and 
  was buried--which is accepted by most. The negative image on the 
  shroud is believed by many scientists to have been caused by a burst of 
  radiation, since it shows bone structure as well as surface image of the 
  corpse. For instance, the left thumb of the manenwrapped in

  together, yet the shroud image shows the bone structure of that hidden 
  thumb. It shows bone structure throughout the body as well.

There is no

or does not constitute proof. As far as proof is 
concerned,however,I don't see that the visibility of bone 
structure in the shroud image proves anything.For that 
matter, science and religion, especially religion, seldom prove 
anything. Would you agree with this? 

Judging from my 
observations, the best we usually get in science is support 
for a point of view, or theory--and with regards to 
religion,support for abelief. Those 
scientists who tout the radiation point of view apparently feel the 
visibility of bone structure on the Shroud of Turin supports their 
belief that the negative images came about as the 
body of Christ was being resurrected, the burst of radiation being part of 
the resurrection process. No proof of this, of course, 
just evidence that supports their belief system. If we want to believe 
something bad enough, we can always find support for it, right? Some, 
for example, want to believe grace without works is a part of the gospel of 
Jesus Christ, sothey find a few isolated passages to support this 
feel-good belief. Boys (of all ages) who want to have sex with their 
girlfriends, or view photos of naked women, find a few isolated passages in 
the Bible, or lack thereof, to support their desire to do these 
things, and then feel good about doing such.Same 
difference,I think, what do you think, brother 
Terry?



  I 
  dunno Blaine. Seems to me that people who keep looking for proof are 
  a little confused. If we had all the facts, we would not be walking 
  in faith. I guess maybe they just think differently than I do. 
  I don't have to find the ark, or examine a shroud, 
  or feel the warm fuzzies, or have a near death experience. I have 
  just made up my mind to follow Jesus, and I have made up my 
  mind that the best way to do that is to know what the Bible says about 
  doing that.
  
  Blaine: Yeah, that's how I feel about the Book of 
  Mormon. There is a lot of evidence, though, and it all fits. 
  Following the Book seems to really give me a beacon in a world darkened by 
  the traditional Belief Systemof the so-called Christian 
  Church. Now there is confusion, if you want 
  confusion!
  
   I guess it would be nice in a weak moment to 
  have absolute proof of the truth, but then that would mean walking by 
   
  information, not faith. Blaine: Faith is the 
  substance of things not seem, as I recall it being defined. I would 
  think some information might be referred to as "substance." The 
  Bible itself is "substance," as are all things God has created. Am I 
  right on 
  this? 
  Just an afterthought. I think I would be troubled by a Savior that

  microscope led to development of a cure for cancer that was PROVEN to be 
  100% effective in 1930s trials overseen by the AMA, The University of 
  Southern California, and Dr. Milbanks Johnson, M.D. (President, Los Angeles 
  County Medical Society at the time) at what would later come to be known as 
  the renowned Scripps Clinic in La Jolla, CA.Part of his research with 
  the microscope revealed to him a specific state that the blood MUST be in for 
  cancer to develop. In his notes he made notation of a curiosity to him. He had 
  discovered that pork caused the specific state for cancer to develop and grow 
  very rapidly. Whenever a test subject consumed pork, their blood entered into 
  that specific state of the blood that he had discovered was necessary for 
  cancer to develop. The blood would maintain this state for up to nine hours 
  after ingestion of pork.Rife was not a religious man. He had no saving 
  faith. He didn't understand that pork was unclean and not to be consumed

  FROM: "The Cancer Cure That Worked!" by Barry Lynes Quoting the 
  first page of Chapter 18: 
  Gruner was a Canadian cancer researcher who worked with Rife (inventor 
  ofthe Rife Machine). As he wrote to Dr. Milbank Johnson in the 
  late1930'', his contemporaries simply wouldn't look at what was before 
  theireyes. In the 1940's Gruner argued in essays and books (An 
  Interpretationof Cancer and the Study of Blood in Cancer) that 
  pleomorphism was aphenomenon in other diseases. Why, he asked, were 
  experts so reluctantto examine a similar biological process when it came 
  to cancer? 
  Gruner: "Viruses in the strict sense are mostly discredited where 
  canceris in question. However, the newer pleomorphists stand in 
  markedcontrast. The virus form, to them, is one phase in the life history 
  ofmany, if not all bacteria. The bacteria forms do not produce cancer, 
  butthe virus forms does. The existence of virus forms of typhoid 
  bacillus,colon bacillus, tubercle bacillus cannot seriously be disputed." 
  Gruner's specialty was blood. Rife had discovered that pork caused 
  thecancer micro-organism to grow very rapidly. In fact, Kendall's 
  KMeddium had a pork base. Gruner took this notion a step 
  further,producing a startling and frightening fact for people who eat 
  pork.Gruner wrote that the blood of a person who ate pork was the 
  SAME(emphasis in the original) as a cancer patient for 8 or 9 hours 
  aftereating. 
  Gruner: "a meal which features pork will produce a BLOOD 
  PICTUREINDISTINGUISHABLE FROM THAT OF CANCER,(emphasis in the original), 
  thoughof course normality reappears after 8 to 9 hours" 
  Unfortunately, the orthodox medical authorities and public

text, the UBS, says auton. The distinction between these two words may 
seem so slight as to be insignificant. Nevertheless this variant exits, and it 
exists for a reason. What is that reason? The question I would like you to 
consider is this: Is the variant there because of an ethical problem on the side 
of one or the other of these two texts? Is there a lack of integrity at play 
here on the part of the copyists? Did one side or the other intentionally 
distort the meaning of the text? What causes textual variations anyway? Is it 
always an ethical problem, a problem of integrity? I have been accused of an 
ethical problem. My integrity has been called into question. I would like to 
suggest to the contrary that perhaps the "problem" if one exists, is not a 
problem of our, the scribes and myself,lack of moral perfection, which we 
would have if we would but submit to the Lord; the problem is one of real human 
limitations -- no ethical underhandedness,no lack of integrity, just us 
being human as best as we can in our pursuit of truth under the Lordship of 
Jesus Christ.

When David asked me to consider I John 5.18in 
the context of our Gnostic discussion, he quoted from the King James Version. 
The King James is a translation from the Textus Receptus -- the 
Received Text or TR. At the heart of this verse are the words "but he that is 
begotten of Godkeepeth himself" (in King James language) or "alla ho 
gennatheis ek tou theou tarei eauton" (from 
theTR Greek itself). Rather than re-introduce the controversy 
overthe various manuscripts and the textual variants between them, and 
knowing the futility of doing so, I told David upfront that this verse has to be 
translated in a way that makes Jesus Christ the one who keepshimself. The 
UBS text is worded in a way which does this. All of the 
translationsderived from the UBS are translated in a way which does this; 
for example, the NASB reads "but He who was born of God keeps 
him." It says this because the UBS states "alla ho gennatheis ek tou 
theou tarei auton." At the heart of this 
passage is an attempt from one side or the other to make Jesus Christ the one 
who keeps himself and, by inference, others "from the wicked one." How do 
textual variants find their way into God's inspired Word? They find their way by 
way of human limitation. It is wrong for limited human beings to be so quick to 
judge the scribes as deviant. These guys are trying to make sense of the 
Scriptures, just like you are and I am. They knew like I do that only Jesus 
Christ can keep us from the wicked one. In the Old Testament we read that one 
angel killed 185,000 men. The zeal of the Lord of hosts saw to it. Yahweh sent 
one angel to do the work of an entire army (see II Kings 19.31-35; cf. Isa 
37.32-36). Who among us is strong enough to protect him- or herself from the 
mightiest of all angels, evil and wicked as we know he is? The scribes knew this 
story. They knew what happened to Peter when only a portion of our Lord's cover 
was removed from upon him. The scribes did not desire to leave this question 
open -- if indeed the UBS is the text which introduced the variant! Did 
you get that? Perhaps the variant was introduced by the scribes who copied the 
TR. Maybe they made a mistake. Maybe they understood this verse in a way similar 
to the way I translated it -- in which casetheir "error" 
precipitatesmy corrective.But must they be self-righteous fools who 
considered themselves greater than they should,yet were stupid enough to 
think they were the keepers of themselves against the devil? If we accept David 
Miller's logic we mustconclude they were. But does it apply? How did the 
variant find its way into this verse? I do not know. You do not know. Not even 
David Miller knows. We know only that it is there and that we have to decide 
what to do with it.

David is right concerning the number for adjectives 
normally lining up with the words they modify. This is one of the grammatical 
rules for translating Greek. And so why did I break
