@StochasticStoat @CrushnSerpents Or the Roman soldiers addressing Jesus in a mocking way.

[JMDeVito @JMDeVito2]

@Muhscle07 @CrushnSerpents No word for full there, and no genitive showing the possession.

[JMDeVito @JMDeVito2]

@TNTJohn1717 This is my thought as well. The whole "whatever you loose is loosed and whatever you retain is retained", going by the use of the perfect tense, is saying "has already been retained/loosed", and amounts to an expression of the Great Commission, not a grant of authority.

@MasterMaliq One message? No.

Matt 3:17 v. Surah 4:171
John 3:16 v Surah 112:3

For starters.

@CherylCooper333 @wakeupnj @LiberTProsperiT That's not going to do anything. I tried to contact people, politicians and media, to investigate possible fraud back when I80 collapsed because NJ had accepted a FEMA grant to address the mines long before one collapsed and never even produced the required report. Ignored.

@Hmmthinkitthru @Ezekle1 I worked in a store back in the early 80's. They taught us how to bag. Paper bags were the ticket! Build base, the wall, etc. So sturdy.

[JMDeVito @JMDeVito2]

@Ezekle1 You were actually using more bags, because (just using round numbers) now you have 20 bags of items to carry instead of 10.

But take heart. At least they let you have bags. In NJ they don't.

[JMDeVito @JMDeVito2]

@adelethelaptop Oh I can so relate. 43 years ago had a major head injury. Subtemporal Cranaeotomy and 27 staples on the left side of my head. Started getting gray around that shortly afterward. I have one spot along the scar where there is a clump of bright white.

@SeattleGhost @FernandaSWilson @LadyDemosthenes ...last "God" in the verse as a predicate nominative.

Thoughts?

[JMDeVito @JMDeVito2]

@SeattleGhost @FernandaSWilson @LadyDemosthenes Modern, respected biblical scholarship.

OK.

A non sequitur, but perhaps you can explain why John 1:1 of the JST has 5 phrases and translates the last "God" in the genitive when all of modern, respected textual criticism unanimously has 3 phrases and translates the (next)...

[JMDeVito @JMDeVito2]

@ChristySimm23 @UcheMaryOkoli Funny to see this. I am reading 1 Clement right now.

[JMDeVito @JMDeVito2]

@FrankBr05713205 Good question.

[JMDeVito @JMDeVito2]

@SpeelingBChamp But praying to Ignatius is so much better than having a firm and unwavering belief in Christ. Maybe he would tell you something you didn't know that you should believe. Otherwise you'd actually have to, I don't know, read the bible and believe it.

[JMDeVito @JMDeVito2]

@ChristySimm23 @Burgess7281975 ...the cemetery had a special section for those babies who weren't worthy to be buried with the good folks.

[JMDeVito @JMDeVito2]

@ChristySimm23 @Burgess7281975 Parents of babies. Imagine standing at the bedside of a woman in her 90s as she was dying while she cried over 70+ years of guilt that the catholic church put on her because she had a baby that died shortly after childbirth. I don't have to imagine it. I did. At least (next)...

[JMDeVito @JMDeVito2]

@Burgess7281975 @ChristySimm23 What isn't accurate?

[JMDeVito @JMDeVito2]

@Cath_SteelMan Imagine not only that but accepting that John 1:1 is comprised of 5 phrases when all of textual criticism shows an undisputed 3, and thinking that one can argue a strawman with people who have read more than the first chapter when one can't even spell "deity". Seer stones 🤦

[JMDeVito @JMDeVito2]

@CatholicDrip___ Jeezus Schmeezus. Mary. That's the deal!

@MrCasey62 Don't tell anyone what you saw or I will snap your neck like a chicken's - Padre Pio, Christmas Eve, 1922.

[JMDeVito @JMDeVito2]

@ColbyMannionNJ We paid them to come up with Fight Unlawful Conduct and Keep Immigrant Communities Empowered. They spent more time trying to makd a bill's initial spell something "edgy" than they do actually caring about us who pay their salaries.
