There’s currently a paradigm shift among exegetes in understanding Greek verbs concerning “time” vs. “aspect” as the excellent sources referenced above delineate (esp. Con Campbell).

What about Luther’s anti-semitiscism & disdain over RC priests? Or, Calvin’s heinous part in the torture & murder of Servetus? (*Note: It will not do to parrot the usual “exonerations” marshaled by contemporary scholars. We actually have their [i.e. Luther & Calvin] own literature & direct quotations to this end.) In fact, numerous academics have observed

[quote user="xnman"]I think debate books are a great way to study a topic. [/quote] Couldn’t agree more. I have learned so much from both audio & written debates. A CofC elder (disclaimer: I personally am not CofC) who was very experienced in public polemical dexterity once stated that for a person to adequately study for just 1 debate was the equivalent

Wayyyy too costly for this mere peasant😳!

I also saw this sale on the link posted above, but I didn’t really have much interest because I erroneously thought this commentary was similar to a Matthew Henry text——until I saw this thread! I saw David Thomas’s post and recalled that I actually have several of these volumes but, again, didn’t pay much attention to them as of yet. All I will say

[quote user="DAL"] The connect code for Courses has changed so you can try again and see if the new code works 👍😁👌 [/quote] Yep—that did the trick. Much appreciated 👍.

Much appreciated Gents. Precisely what I was wondering 👍.

[quote user="HJ. van der Wal"] Shalom Puddin’! The coupon code for the 3 free ebooks arrived in my mailbox yesterday. The code for the MobileEd course however does not appear to be live yet. [/quote] Thank you. Actually I did see the Ebooks code in my inbox after I posted this thread (☺️)—but as you noted the MobileEd coupon doesn’t appear to be working

I hope I am not overlooking the codes, but not seeing them in the usual location. Am I missing something?

[quote user="MJ. Smith"] [quote user="Puddin’"]but I often wonder if the free books each month are ours to keep[/quote] Yes they are yours to keep. Only resources that have a license of Temporary in the library are simply loans. [/quote] Wow—very impressive. That alone is worth the $$ to me. Thank you.

I have never thought to check & see, but I often wonder if the free books each month are ours to keep—or only for that specific month to read (?). Regardless, it’s still an excellent deal. I tell the church all the time about Logos Bible software.

Thank you much. Really excellent points & resources. I am checking into every one of these. Oh, and, yeah, I have been thinking the same thing regarding resources that would support a reference to church government in these passages—they must be in 3 Timothy, 2 Jude, or, the ultimate & most popular authority: The-Book-Of-I-Say-It 😳🕺🏼. Thank you again

Note: I’m NOT attempting to discuss theology in these passages, but I‘m searching for a specific type of resource & feel it may help to provide a little background. I have to be brief so I’ll dive right in: I assume that by now many of you have seen the American (mostly Southern) pastors who are refusing to comply w. the CDC & state governors concerning

[quote user="DAL"] Please update this resource and give it extra functionality 👍😁👌 Link: https://www.logos.com/product/32501/center-for-new-testament-textual-studies-new-testament-critical-apparatus Thanks! DAL [/quote] I have been dying to get this resource but it never seems to go on sale. Please don’t tell me there’s something wrong w. it (?)

Wow—excellent points & references men. I just acquired Hoekema‘s book. I can’t help but think about the Father of the Figurative Hermeneutic, Origen. Gotta’ run, but greatly appreciate the input👍!

[quote user="Olli-Pekka Ylisuutari"] [quote user="Puddin’"] They view “the sword” as the Word of God as per numerous NT passage such as Hebrews (“...sharper than a two edged sword”), Ephesians (”...sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God”) & Revelation (“...out of his mouth went a sword...”).

[quote user="Olli-Pekka Ylisuutari"] [quote user="Puddin’"] He and several other pastors are arguing that Romans 13 is “not referring to civil authority, but rather to church government & the NT ministry” (their exact words). [/quote] In light of the above it would be very interesting to hear their explanation as to why St. Paul then says in Rom. 13

Got it. Excellent resource suggestions & points. I will be purchasing a lot of these works mentioned above that I wasn’t even aware of. Good ideas from every post. Greatly appreciated👍!

I know we aren’t supposed to broach theological topics on these forums (which I actually like), but I need to just provide a little background for clarity’s sake. I will not be too specific/theological at all & I hope this is not a violation of forum policies. A couple of pastors contacted me over the weekend to ask if I would be interested in coming
