my next guess is that Step 2 is: refer to Step 1
I'm not seeing the problem here....
Then I guess step 3 would be "stop rushing."

mmmm...seems to be an addiction to L4 betas. Wonder what will happen when L4's beta nears completion?
I am not addicted. I can set update channel to stable anytime I want to. I just don't want to right now. [H]

We need 4.0e Beta so people will have something to occupy their minds rather than this silly season.
Well said Jack.

Tough to keep Bible software free from theological discussion. Your entire library is theological and therefore offensive to someone. That's an excerpt from your own resource

We have experienced the same baptism (vv. 12–13). It is unfortunate that the term “baptism of the Spirit” has been divorced from its original New Testament meaning. God has spoken to us in Spirit-given words which we must not confuse (1 Cor. 2:12–13). The baptism of the Spirit occurs at conversion when the Spirit enters the believing sinner, gives him new life, and makes his body the temple of God. All believers have experienced this once-for-all baptism (1 Cor. 12:13). Nowhere does the Scripture command us to seek this baptism, because we have already experienced it and it need not be repeated.
The “filling of the Spirit” (Eph. 5:18ff) has to do with the Spirit’s control of our lives. (In Scripture, to be filled by something means “to be controlled by.”) We are commanded to be filled, and we can be if we yield all to Christ and ask Him for the Spirit’s filling. This is a repeated experience, for we constantly need to be filled with spiritual power if we are to glorify Christ. To be baptized by the Spirit means that we belong to Christ’s body. To be filled with the Spirit means that our bodies belong to Christ.
The evidence of the Spirit’s baptism at conversion is the witness of the Spirit within (Rom. 8:14–16). It is not “speaking in tongues.” All of the believers in the Corinthian assembly had been baptized by the Spirit, but not all of them spoke in tongues (1 Cor. 12:30). The evidences of the Spirit’s filling are: power for witnessing (Acts 1:8), joyfulness and submission (Eph. 5:19ff), Christlikeness (Gal. 5:22–26), and a growing understanding of the Word (John 16:12–15).
Because of the gift of the Spirit, which is received at conversion, we are all members of the body of Christ. Race, social status, wealth, or even sex (Gal. 3:28) are neither advantages nor handicaps as we fellowship and serve the Lord.

Unbiased or not, it is a RANDOM resource from your own library. If you don't like the resource, hide it from your library, and you will never see any excerpts from it again.

The Homepage contents are random insomuch as they vary wildly theologically and are based on content you have in your library. One day's content can easily contradict the next day's. There is no conspiracy committee hiding behind the Homepage trying to convert all users to a particular heresy.
I view the Homepage articles as teasers to get me thinking and, if time permits, persue the rabbit trail in a study session.
Jerry Mclean said:Hardly random or unbiased.
VERY random, but no more biased than everything else in your Logos resource library. If you would prefer someone else sanitize your library and only offer writings you agree with, you can try Nelson's various eBible Lifeworks Collections:
MacArthur Lifeworks Library 2.0 [CD-ROM] http://www.logos.com/products/details/3950
The Jeremiah LifeWorks Library [CD-ROM ] http://www.logos.com/products/details/2066
The Jeremiah LifeWorks Library 2.0 http://www.logos.com/products/details/4436
The Stanley Lifeworks Library [CD-ROM] http://www.logos.com/products/details/3380
The Norman L. Geisler Apologetics Library http://www.logos.com/products/details/1756And these have been published but are not currently available on the Logos.com website:
Hank Hannegraff, Jack Hayford, R. C. Sproul, J. Vernon McGee, Jimmy Swaggart, John Maxwell, Max Lucado, Bill Bright, John MacArthur Lifeworks 1.0, & Chuck Swindoll (that one is news to me!)
Choose your flavor! (that was fun)

This would seem so obvious that it's laughable.

If they are indeed random and are not overseen by an editor I stand corrected and apologize. I was only making an observation, albeit perhaps misguided. I enjoy everything about Logos, even the Home Page and the theological diversity. Hopefully we can get back to talking about the software.

Yup, everybody's homepage is different on any given day, just pulled at random from your selected options and library.
Onward with the cool stuff! Researching and learning with Logos is awesome! I have been taught soooo much about the program through these forums and the user contributed wiki that I cannot even begin to express my thanks.

I was verbally abusing (drivel=abuse?) a theologically biased random content generator (computer).
Nathan, I can''t figure out whether you are kidding us, serious or being dense - neither fits with my image of you from your other posts. Calling it "drivel" was potentially insulting to those who agree with the author and to author themselves. It's appearance on you home page was the result of a computer randomizing routines. But the thread is definitely more fun to read than impatient waiting for the next pc beta.

I thought this thread was going to be about resting from using the forum on the Sabbath. Boy was I wrong.

I found Logos to have highly theologically biased content [:O] and... I thank God for that. I paid big money for having that. Logos is not a forum. If the same rules would apply to Logos as to the forum, I would not pay one cent for it [:)].
By the way, I just came back from one Middle East country where Christians meet on Friday from obvious reasons... In one other country believers meet on Saturday (Sabbath) and are not Seven Day Adventists. Interesting is this world of the followers of Jesus Christ [:P]

O Good this post has been declared closed so no one will read my post
That item came from “The Bible knowledge commentary” on Genesis 2:1–3
And is in almost every base package (maybe not Languages)

After becoming somewhat familiar with this software, it is
easy to lose sight of just how amazing it is!
It truly is an amazing tool. Like
a good worship leader that forgets the complexity of their musical instrument
and loses themselves in worship and adoration, my goal is to become familiar
enough with Logos, that I find myself lost in the wonder of God’s Word and
presence. Thanks Bob and Logos team for
making this possible and thanks to those who patiently answer questions,
correct misunderstandings and offer tips to those who are just beginning this
quest. You are performing an important
ministry in and for the Body of Christ."For the kingdom of God does not consist in words but in power"

The "closure" has no effect on people's ability to read and respond to your post. It's just a way of asking people to stay within the intended spirit of the forums.
