Ahhhh, gotta love that line!  "Is you is or is you ain't" I think the redneck's and some of the biker element on TT will remember this line and appreciate it in a new light! Thanks John!

(John 17.24)   judy:  Bill I don't mind you disagreeing with me but John 17:24 in no way validates this "Eternal Son" doctrine - nor does it say anything precisely about the Son's relationship with the Father. What John 17:24 conveys is the existence of the Father - Son relationship from the foundations of the world.   It does not explain how God can be a Father without a marriage contract, without a wife, without a mother to His children.    It does not explain how it is that God the Father is our Only Parent.   It does not explain ANYTHING.  It just affirms the Father - Son relationship.   I love it when the very best rebuttal is the simple quoting and requoting of scripture.  Either you is a believer or you ain't.  John
