I ran across your post on Ge 2. You have some interesting observations that mix literal and figurative. In the four voices of God; prophet, judge, priest and king, the prophet and judge mix spiritual and flesh. I am curious if you are consciously aware of the hermeneutic mode you have chosen...

On paper, any discussion of U.S. nuclear forces would appear to be highly detrimental and likely involving classified information. Except that concern over classified material requires a practical prerequisite. Namely, that hostile actors are not already aware of what the classified material...

You said it "IF". But thanks for piling on based on gossip. It is no longer a secret if he had shared it also while president. Pr 18:13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth [it], it [is] folly and shame unto him.

Thank you for displaying your shame. You convict on gossip. How do you know he didn't also share it while president? You don't. I am willing to wait and see. But foaming at the mouth fanatics are not. Do you use a rake or pitchfork? Pr 18:13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth [it]...

I can't speak for all, We are so accustomed to complete fabrications that get debunked that we are willing to give him the benefit of doubt. The press has tried and convicted him.... yet again. POTUS declassifies things by simply sharing them. He needs no other permission. Do you know for a...

POTUS has the power to declas anything he wants by merely sharing it. So it is fake news from the start. "Oh Panic!! Trump did what presidents are allowed to do!"

I don't worry about marketing at all. You see you can get them for free. Since they are in print, and at Amazon, they will be available for whoever wants them.

Abraham's seed are dust (without the word), sand by the sea (washed by the word) and stars in the firmament (reflecting God's holiness). When Jesu read the Bible he did not see the light, water and dry ground he saw his character word and incarnation. Everything else misses the point.

The primary lexical metaphor in Hebrew for 'name' 'shem' שם in it's most raw form is : The word came down and returned with an increase ש by the finished work of the Son according to the Law. ם Paraphrasing: reputation - The work of the Son; man finished through the cross, is the reputation...

For ideas you might try children's books. I attempt to teach deep theology with them: Here a a couple available on Amazon or free at my site: https://2ndbook.org/wiki/Books_available I'll be doing Ge 1-5, Parables, Miracles.. which all speak of Christ.

Love covers a multitude of sins. It's not love. It's mutual manipulation. Do you choose to have such drama the rest of your life?

There is no need to turn to Persian Wisdom. Hebrew wisdom will do. Ps 78:2 I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old: Pr 1:6 To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings. Why look for a secular meaning when Jesus...

We always have the right to defend ourselves but we have the privilege to not.

The thing about beliefs is that they can be loosely held, or firmly trusted. It is easy to believe in sign gifts until you are not healed. Then you hear "He was healed through death". If Jesus died on the cross for healing then it is a taint on salvation. We trust we are saved (which we can't...

I wake up and say "Wow! You're STILL here!" Then go to the Doctor and he says, "Wow! YOU'RE still here?"

I may be a bit biased. If you wish to see the dietary law in a completely different way... Using a first century hermeneutic: The clean animal is the good teacher who meditates on the word and it produces a holy walk. You can get on Amazon or free here: https://2ndbook.org/wiki/Books_available

This is an excellent question. It comes from poor man-centered preaching. Let me use hyperbole: Jesus did not die o the cross to save YOU. He died on the cross as the culmination of the revelation of the invisible Father as being both Holy and Love as contained in the 'mystery hidden from the...

Right! The first day of creation is called 'Day One'. The others are 'second', 'third', etc. It sums up all of creation in all time. This is the Lord's Day.

Excellent! When Jesus read the Bible he did not see Adam, Moses, Israel and all; he saw himself. Everything speaks of him. The Nicolaitans since the days of Augustine have tried to hide it saying that scripture is just literal-historical. It is prophetic riddle in literal historical. You are...

Previously -- Your questions have indicated to me that we live in different hermeneutical worlds and will be talking past one another. You indicate again that we will not be communicating. That rambling part was important in considering the genre of the material in question. If you get the...
