I Peter 2:2

Now you know that's a big no-no, rsr will start a quote list on you next

 

That's OK, I wouldn't mind. It might even give me some insight into how I think.
I don't know about you, but I have been feeling guilty for spending so much time on BB.
I'd better get to bed, my wife is calling me.
Good night all.

 

Goodnight, tiny boy!

 

It is not the "sincere milk." It is the "pure milk." The KJV has clearly subtracted from the Word by deleting "unto salvation" and changing the word from pure, without admixture. The KJV follows most of the miniscules and omits unto salvation. So in this case it does what the KJVO's accuse the MV's of doing. The KJV is sincerely wrong and that makes it impure.

 

Salvation is the theme of I Peter, the main subject of 2:2 is growth, then we have what causes and promotes that growth it is the sincere milk of the word:

97 adolov adolos ad’-ol-os

from 1 (as a negative particle), and 1388; ; adj

AV-sincere 1; 1

1) guileless
1a) in things: unmixed, unadulterated, pure
1b) in persons: without dishonest intent, guileless

Uh, gb, Have you missed something in the defintion of sincere?

 

How is sincere the same as "unmixed, unadulterated, or pure?"

Of course, Webster's notes that sincere means pure in an archaic sense, but in today's wording, sincere doesn't mean "unmixed, unadulterated, or pure."

My take on it: sincere was a good word to use in 1611. Pure is the correct word to use in 2004.

 

Since you'd let this world destroy the meaning of sincerety, then that would account for why we MUST get back to the Bible and separate from the world.

Since when is "sincere" anything less than pure, unmixed, unadulterated? Of course in a world full of adultry, I can see it's demise on the coming horizon.

Sincere not pure? HAH!

 

Man you'd argue with a telephone pole! You argue the semantics of "dakruo" and then turn and deny "adolov"!

ROFLOL, Man, my sides are beginning to hurt!

 

One can be sincerwely wrong or sincerely right. But pure is always unadulterated. The right thing is never wrong. Sincere is not a good choice og words for 2004.

I would not doubt the sincerity of most posters even when many would believe they are in error and can prove it. At times they go from sincerely wrong to sincerely right.

Adulterers are sincere at being selfish. But they are not pure and holy and are sincerely wrong.

"Since you'd let this world destroy the meaning of sincerety, then that would account for why we MUST get back to the Bible and separate from the world."

Do you tell people you are a gay man when you are happy without any further explanation. If not then you have done the very thing you write against.

I don't find in your postings that you are using archaic language to explain your position. So why use archaic langauge when you quote a verse or why would you even promote archaic language saying it is best. Let's face it the KJV 1611 uses a lot of language that has changed meaning and we do not even use any more. So why use that language that people do not understand and other words that have changed meaning to mean something different. For example the word "conversation."

 

Thanks for the lesson. That was an excellent illustration.

 

No wax here, sincere, yes, wax, no.

I'm sorry, guys yall can dote about all you want, but down here in Dixie we still are sincere about being sincere. I can't help it if yall let ol'Slick willy ruin sincerety for you, but he don't bother me.

I Corinthians 5:9-10. Paul told us NOT to separate ourselves from immoral people who don't know Christ. He did tell us to separate ourselves from those who claim Christ but are continuing in immorality. Jesus, through his life, taught the same thing.

 

Scott, was that you I saw in the red light district in Amsterdam peeping in the plate glass?

Maybe you separate from that area of immorality and not be associated with them, unless of course you had a Bible in your hand.

I really can't believe you'd use that verse in the effort to start a debate over separation.

No, we are not separate from sinners neither should we be, but we are to be ecclesiastically separated from the world and it's anti-christ attitudes.

 

Yes,l I do, I am gay. But then I ask them to define the word "gay". 99% of them say homosexuals are gays. About 1% catches on and says, "Oh, you know what I mean". I say, "No, I don't know what you mean, are you implying I am a sodomite?" No. "Then I am gay, I'm glad to be saved!" I go on to explain to them what the word really means and how this world perverts everything.

The word sincere means earnest. The use of sincere about being selfish would only mean a person is purely selfish, but that is an oxymoron becuase selfishness is impure, it is sin. You blatantly misused the correct term, maybe you should ahve said "honestly selfish" sincerely does exactly fit, but it certainly fits in I Peter 2:2

Your analogy is just a perfect example of accepting what the world dishes out and letting them take over in the end.

Nice try though, but you should pick on somebody who just doesn't know any better.

 

No, but I have gone to sports bars to watch the Miami Dolphins play. I often find plenty of people who need someone to listen to them and offer them the love of Christ. I've never been to Amsterdam, but it seems like it'd be an amazing mission field.

Why run away from the mission field where God has called us?

Not starting a debate, just noting that Paul nor Christ followed the type of separation that you mentioned.

And how in the world does language come into play there. Is the natural change of language somehow antiChrist?

 

I'm so proud of you! really. I don't have that kind of liberty to sit in a sports bar watching a football game. I was in that atmosphere for too long, it's not my area to go, the Lord has me elsewhere, but good for you. hope everything is in order, God's order,

A friend of mine Bro. Danny Alford is in Holland and you're right an amazing mission field, full of all sorts of immorality, some we don't usually know about, or at least see that level.

Who said I was? I'm right in the middle of the mission field, it's where the Lord has said the fields are already white unto harvest. I am running to the field, not from.

Not starting a debate in a debate forum? Yeah, right.

I think you read something into what I said concerning the type of separation I am talking about when I say to separate from the world, I guess you really don't understand and not hesitant to make an accusation though.

In my field I get to meet all kinds, not limited to just a certain field, but I get into all fields, I'm a plumber and meet all kinds.

When you change the meanings of words, even though the world makes use of the changed words, it is a matter of the slang usage that accomplishes this. To look back to words and diminsh their meaning and to call them archaic is a deviation from truth. Anything that deviates from truth is anti-christ, Christ is the Truth. Slang is not natural, it is the offspring of illiteracy. Illiteracy is bathed in ignorance. It is ignorance of the meanings of words that leads to deception on the behalf of the more learned and practiced at the art of deception. If you want us to give up what is more pure and certain for that which is less understood, tough, we're not going to budge.
