He chooses men who will speak as the "oracles of God" rather than experts in Greek ...  jt   On Sun, 6 Mar 2005 14:51:03 -0500 "Lance Muir" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: And, today he chooses unlearned.........?

Yup, they were sent forth into something else, no doubt about it -- and with the same word certain sailors, fearing shipwreck, "cast out the wheat into the sea."   jt: So sailors casting wheat overboard is the same as the Holy Spirit casting Jesus off into the wilderness because the Greek word Ekballo says so and we must not violate the sanctity of the Greek language?   And so I ask you, what does "forth" mean, here, if not OUT -- send "out" laborers into the harvest, etc.    jt: So what was Jesus cast out of before being sent forth into the wilderness?   "And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding? Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?" (Mat 15.16-17) --   jt: Speaking about what defiles a man - coming out of the defiled heart rather than what goes into the belly and comes out in Charmin' land.   Perhaps as good a place as any to end our conversation, Bill   jt: Possibly so - now that the issue is thoroughly and totally confused....  Now I see why Jesus chose 12 "unlearned men" to evangelize the known world....
