@ClaytonJKillion Sure!

Listening to a rejoinder against Zach Cole, and the reviewer objected that Cole didn't distinguish which TR. Irony as this reviewer has repeatedly rejected that question as valid, only to demand an opponent to answer it.

@glennbutner Do you believe this should be included on an author's bio of a book he has published?

[Timothy Decker @timldecker]

@SteveMeisterVDM I see so many Christian authors leave this info out. Sad.

[Timothy Decker @timldecker]

For those with issues with the confessional commitments of editors of the UBS6:
They provide an apparatus, so you don't have to agree with their conclusions.
Crisis averted.

[Timothy Decker @timldecker]

@brandon_adams Yes!

[Timothy Decker @timldecker]

A year ago today, I went into the hospital, not knowing that I would not come out for 5 months.
God is faithful!

You remember that one time there was a "party" about tea because there was no representation?

Yeah, that's how I'm feeling in Virginia right now.

Such things are why I hate democracy. I can't even democratically elect my local representatives now.

[Timothy Decker @timldecker]

Can we call a Commonwealth Congress and kick Northern Virginia out? We can cede them over to DC or even Maryland.

@dgh5391 @Riddle1689 There is a minor variant w Sinaiticus & Peshitta adding ekklesia. So not just a translation choice.

[Timothy Decker @timldecker]

@dgh5391 Sinaiticus includes ekklesia as well as the Peshitta. But I'm away from looking at it carefully.

If you live in or around the Roanoke area, you won't want to miss this year's Men's Conference with retired pastor George McDearmon, April 10-12.

[Timothy Decker @timldecker]

@SteveMeisterVDM Also, "gospel" is a verb too. "Gospelize"!

[Timothy Decker @timldecker]

@SteveMeisterVDM evangelical obedience

@dgh5391 (My co-pastor is on a sabbatical)

What did I miss?

[Timothy Decker @timldecker]

Found my new favorite Greek ligature (yes, the fish is a Greek word but not ιχθυς). It is even accented!

[Timothy Decker @timldecker]

@SteveMeisterVDM hahaha!

[Timothy Decker @timldecker]

Mass shootings are not a gun issue or a mental health issue. It is a sin issue. If we let the evil gunman off the hook by blaming either the guns or some illness, then he is no longer considered evil and society will descend deeper into the bloodshed of the innocent.

[Timothy Decker @timldecker]

@NickJFreitas @Sadie_NC No... you're not a democrat
