  1. Mike Your approach seems to me to be like a kid trying to look for reasons to believe that Santa Claus is real.
  2. The class syllabus from the 1970s lists Wierwille as the author. I'm surprised a devotee of all things Wierwille would be this disinterested in scrutinizing its contents.
  3. The joke's on you. There's already something fermenting in my shoes. (People call me the kimchi kid.)
  4. Upon careful scrutiny, it becomes apparent that Pachelbel's Canon did not, in fact, follow the yabadabadoo form.
  5. OK, so let me get this straight. Paul initiated the formation of the biblical canon, which includes writings that did not yet exist in his lifetime. He was clearly a time traveler. (Care for a Jelly Baby?)
  6. Didn't Wierwille spend a large amount of time stressing how everything had to follow a precise sequence? How does this concept differ from abadabadoo, etc., etc. etc.?
  7. My general rule is to refrain from posting or answering anything Way related on PM. I do occasionally make exceptions to discuss unrelated matters like musical equipment, gardening, cooking, etc. But, that's me. Your mileage may vary.
  8. Welcome to GSC, fredgrant. I have a busy day ahead of me, but I'll try to give it a go when I can. (Sometimes it helps to post a bit of a snippet to pique peoples' interest.)
  9. When it comes to things like original languages and origins and meanings of specific words, I think it's in our best interest to default to the experts who have dedicated their careers to this field of study.
  10. VPW may not have taught specifically on the canon, but he used its chronological sequencing extensively to push his agenda. The administration demarcations, doctrine/reproof/correction epistles having to appear in a specific order, to whom it was written, etc. These concepts all rely heavily on an exacting sequence of canon. But, the sequencing and interpretation of its importance is a man made reality, devised to promote various agendas. This is why chronology and source of origin can not be lightly ignored.
  11. The Word doesn't say anything about the canon. If it did, you would have told us what it says a long time ago.
  12. Mike That's straight out of PFAL. (Session #5? I don't know. I'm an old grad who probably wasn't paying attention.) "STAND!...something, something, something." Well, I'd like to add to that by saying "Don't look down!" You might find you're standing in something that's, eh, how do I say this?, not the most desirable thing to stand in.
  13. HERE is an interesting youtube from the "Who Wrote The Bible?" series that deals with the origin and chronology of the gospels. The episodes that precede it deal with the old testament, while the episodes that follow it deal with the epistles, as well as Daniel and Revelation.
  14. Here are the 2 statements you made that seem to conflict: *God did not intervene to help make the KJV happen. *He had his hand on the process all along. No. I meant to say that Matthew is sourced from Mark and Luke, Mark being the first written, along with another source which has since been lost.
  15. These two statements appear to conflict. I'm sure you must also be aware that Paul died before the Gospels came into being and that Mark was the first one written. Matthew and Luke are sourced from the information in Matthew. *(Bolding added.)
