Online magazine for horse related information for Alaska, Canada, and the northern United States.

Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God (ho
theos),and the Word was [God,god] (theos).


To clearly explain this, let us use an illustration.
e.g. (Human Judge - Jim)

In the year 1950 (beginning) was the human judge, and the human judge was
with God (ho theos), and the human judge was [god /a god/ or God]
(theos).

In the last phrase, “the human judge was theos” NOT “ho theos”, will you
translate the “theos” to God or god? Definitely, a Christian will
translate the “theos” in the last phrase as “god” not “God” because if you
translate it to “God” it means that you have two Gods and that the human
judge is THE GOD. (This is the same with the Word was with God, If Word is
God, then God is with God, this is wrong because there is only one God).

In John 1:1, the “theos” without the “ho” has become qualitative. No
wonder other Bible translators translate John 1:1 as “the word was divine”
/ ““and of a divine kind was the Word”/ “the Word was god/a god”

How often have I asked the same of you, Loren? And yet every time, you refused.
So what right doyou have to expect that Sarah will extend that courtesy to you?

And to see that change, both of you must change the way you do these posts.
Needless to say, I am not holding my breath.

You asked her to consider, YOU consider Pro 10:19 -- both of you!

Who is doing the believing, man or God? Answer: Man.
Works righteousness is when the focus is upon man rather
than God. Again, which is the right answer to the quest
