The program to install new deacons has beer arranged.

Most spell-checkers would think that's an OK sentence.

Donna Fletcher was tempted to use a Johannine comma before "and", and Non-Chalcedonian doctrine wound up having no prepositions to end sentences with.

"And Jesus baptized not, but His disciples."

Did that mean He didn't baptize anyone, but His disciples did the baptizing - or that He only baptized His disciples and no one else?

My Greek professor said His disciples did the baptizing.

If that King James Version was good enough for Paul and Silas, it's good enough for me!

Chesterton, can I go out on a limb and guess you are from Chesterton, Indiana and work for Ancient Faith Radio?
Yes.
Yes you can guess.

:p

No, I'm from Texas, and I'm only a listener of AFR.
