TreeOfLife Posted October 23, 2009 Author Share Posted October 23, 2009 Let’s Make This a Little Easier… Step by Little Step… No answers yet! … Probably my fault. I must be making this too hard… Let’s follow God’s guidance, God’s example! Let’s do like he does… Let’s take it one little step at a time, precept by precept… Quote: Isaiah 28:9 KJV Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. Isaiah 28:10 KJV For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little: Isaiah 28:11 KJV For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people. Isaiah 28:12 KJV To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear. Isaiah 28:13 KJV But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.

Members phkrause Posted November 28, 2009 Members Share Posted November 28, 2009 It must be Peter? pk Quote phkrause By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreeOfLife Posted November 28, 2009 Author Share Posted November 28, 2009 Trivia Question #3e Let’s make Sivart’s question become our next question: “Would that make Barnabas Peter's brother-in-law?” Can we find Scripture evidence for that? Hint: Consider Acts 12:25; 15:37 and 39! Quote http://adamoh.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SivartM Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 So... Barnabas was Mark's uncle, and Mark was the son of Peter?

TreeOfLife Posted November 28, 2009 Author Share Posted November 28, 2009 Answer #3e Yes, we have found evidence in the KJV for “Barnabas being Mark’s uncle,” haven’t we?!!! And… Indeed, likewise re “Mark [being] the son of Peter!” Many thanks Sivart, for being so observant! * * * * * * * * Leading our evidence into stronger evidence, even proof! In fact I do believe we even have proof to that same effect. That is, considering that the name Mark is one and the same name as Marcus as used in the New Testament Greek versions: In the New Testament, per KJV, we find the variant spellings Marcus and Mark, which, at first sight might perhaps give the appearance of two different names. However, upon careful consideration of these two names as found in Textus Receptus, that is, the most reliable Greek version of the New Testament, we find three grammatical forms being used for these same two names. Namely the three versions corresponding to nominative, accusative, and genitive, respectively. Further, upon looking up these variant spellings in The Analytical Greek Lexicon, Harper & Brothers Publishers, N.Y., I find that the Greek form translated ‘Mark’ in KJV is identified as one and the same Greek form that is translated ‘Marcus’ in KJV. Accordingly, the two English variants found in KJV are based upon one and the same Greek name as written in three different grammatical forms within the New Testament.

TreeOfLife Posted November 28, 2009 Author Share Posted November 28, 2009 Trivia Question #3f… - That is, our Original Question #3 Summing up Trivia Question #3 as found at this link: What’s the correct answer to Trivia Question #3? A, B, C, D, or E? Hint: Consider the answers we’ve just discovered to Trivia Questions 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, and 3e! That should be very easy indeed, or isn’t it? Quote http://adamoh.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TreeOfLife Posted December 4, 2009 Author Share Posted December 4, 2009 Answer #3 Well, I guess this last question, #3f, was beneath you all… Sorry, but I didn’t mean to insult your intelligence. On the contrary, I just wished to exercise the important and God given command to “Remember…,” because it is important frequently to review where we are and where we are coming from, or isn’t it? So, obviously, as seen in all of the above, 3a through 3e, the answer to our original question #3 (cf. quote below) is “D. All of the above.” Trivia Question #3 Who was Barnabas’ sister’s son? A. Marcus B. Peter’s son C. Mark D. All of the above E. None of the above Hint: 1 Peter 5:13… - Is this a matter of forgetfulness on most of our part? - As opposed, or in contrast, to “Remember… the Seventh Day?” Consider it! Selah!

TreeOfLife Posted December 4, 2009 Author Share Posted December 4, 2009 Trivia Question #4 What’s the name of Barnabas’ sister?
