I'm glad for you Lance because if you did the only
sign it would be is a sign of your ignorance.
This should read as follows:
"BEHOLD DAVID MILLER, REDEEMED FROM THE CURSE, ONE
WHO IS BOUGHT WITH A PRICE
AND WHO IS PRESENTLY THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN
CHRIST RESIDES AT THIS HOME".

reading 'BEWARE! DAVID MILLER, A (redeemed) SINNER (past, present and, future)

WHO STANDS ON EQUAL SINFUL FOOTING
WITH QUEERS RESIDES AT THIS HOME'
DAVID:We await your response to the specific
post re:DM/SIN Was it not you who made the christology/sin along
with the ideaological/pragmatic distinction?
DAVID:It may be that not unlike the cast in
'Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room'
that though your Greek grammar, logic, vocabulary aand your
grooming (?) are impeccable, IFF you, along with the rest of humanity,
ACTUALLY DO SIN IN THOUGHT/WORD/DEED DAILY then, you are simply wrong for
the 'right' reasons. Don't be affeared David, y'all wouldn't be the first to
have so thoroughly 'missed the mark'.(theologically) Thank the Lord David,
provision has been made for such as you.

Present Indicative
You are still sticking with your bias of how you have been taught to
read
the present tense. Don't you notice how you keep
retranslating the words
into an ing form that accepted translators do
not use in their translations
(KJV, NASB, etc.)?
I don't care about the translations. It
(ing) is a way of bring out the linear action of the verb and it is the
accepted manner of doing so in all the grammars I have seen.
What do you think I was presenting to you when I gave sources complete
with page reference? They all use the "ing" and
for the same reason I use that ending. Are you suggesting that
Robertson's comments (as you understand them) trumps all of
these grammictal illustration? That the first year boys simply
did not get it right -- all of them? But more than
that -- you do not think that "walk in the light" is an ONGOING
activity? Or that as long as I deny sin ()whatever that means) I
will CONTINUE to be considered a liar. You don't see
that? And, are you saying that present indicative actives
never mean to imply linear action?
