In a perfect world

Think means me, as I by mistake thought him and Baptist4Life were both part of the KJVO Cult...

This is good news that both of them were/are not, just sometimes not clear by way both exault high up KJV and put down so much modern versions!

especially when comparing modern versions to cultic/satanic influences....

 

B4L has never done that. Let's be sure we have the facts straight.

 

Thanks!
I am sincerly glad neither of them are in the KJVO group....
Will amke a note to make sure this is how I present them in the Future!

 

I only said that B4L has never associated non-KJV Bibles with Satan and never supported onlyism.

 

Thanks!
Sometimes hard to seperate the "players" here on BB without a "baptist" score card!

 

Think with me. Look at a word, love. Love has 4 words in Greek. Eros, agape, storge and phileo. Question: Does eros mean agape? Are eros and agape same meaning?

 

:sleep::sleeping_2:

 

Even in English, the words "record" and "testimony" can be synonymous. Also, what you have here is DIFFERENT Greek words. In my example it's the SAME Greek word.

Also, could you reply on the other thread and give me some of the 800 places the KJV deviates from the TR? I never saw any examples. thanks!

 

Please answer my questions -- Yes or no.

 

the GREEK words have different meanings. You are doing this backwards, going from English to Greek.(which why it was irrelevant to answer your question as it is not teh same thing) We are going from Greek to English. In the verses we are looking at, it is the SAME Greek word. The English words also have the same meaning.

 

Define "record."

Define "testimony."

 

Record - an account of past actions., An account officially written and preserved as evidence or testimony
Testimony - evidence in support of a fact

My testimony is to always tell the truth. My record is to always tell the truth. It's an account of past actions that normally happen.

 

The KJV team did not use concordance too much. So KJVO folks need to know this when they are so picky about certain KJV words that they think are superior to word choices in modern versions.

 

In English, my testimony is my witness, and my witness is my testimony....Sure sound the same to me.

Hmmmm. Interesting answer.

 

Record means to register; to enroll; to write or enter in a book or on parchment, for the purpose of preserving authentic.

Testimony means a solemn declaration or affirmation made for the purpose of establishing or proving some fact; witness; evidence; proof of some fact.

Got it?

 

That's ONE of the definitions.(you gave the definiton when it's pronounced as ri-kawrd, we gave it as it was in the text as rek-erd). We are speaking of it in the form of re cord Another is the example that I gave which is a synonym of testimony and witness. Words have multiple meanings. Here, all three of these words can mean the same thing. So when we have the Greek word μαρτυρία, we can use either "record" "testimony" or "witness" as translations.


http://thesaurus.com/browse/record

Record: testimony, witness
Testimony: record, witness

 

Record is written.

Testimony is oral

Witness is visible.

 

Not always and not how it is being used in the passages we were speaking of. Record CAN be something that is written, but it can also talk about the testimony. They can be synonymous as we all have said. There is nothing else you can do to defend against it as we have given proof they are synonyms.

Well, since that's all settled, care to give me any of the 800 examples of the NKJV deviating from the TR?

Oxford Dictionary (English):

testimony: an oral or written statement under oath or affirmation 2. declaration or statement of fact.

record: a piece of evidence or information constituting an account of something that has occurred, been said, etc.

Looks the same to me.
