The part of your response to Wolfgang that I emphasize with bold-face is one of the most sophisticated, provocative, and disarming theological arguments I've read in quite a while, Dave. Well done.

POST DELETED BECAUSE OF REPETITION. SORRY!

In my view, there is no textual support in Psalm 2 for your view. Yes, the writer of Hebrews imports Psalm 2.7 on two occasions (Heb 1.5, 5.5) but to the psalmist, the son in Psalm 2 is clearly, I contend, a royal figure contem…

Psalm 12 is most likely a "royal" psalm, written, as were many psalms, to express support, praise, and faithful allegiance to a king as God's chosen leader. One resource I consulted on Psalm 12 contends that the psalm may well have bee…

Wolfgang can and, I'm quite confident, will very ably speak for himself on the matters you address in your post, but I'm curious about the relevance of what you write.
If the biblical witness is that Jesus is not God, then of w…

It's not clear to me which "anti-USA course" you're referring to here. Are you saying that refusing to build additional southern border wall - a wall that the majority of Americans don't want - is an "anti-USA course"? If not the wall,…

Throughout the shutdown the president repeatedly said the shutdown would continue until he got money for his wall. Last Friday he agreed to reopen the government without money for his wall. Did his action mean his stand in this matter …

I didn't ask what position you believe would be consistent with what others might have been saying during the shutdown. I asked what position YOU would take in the situation House members faced on the day the GOP proposal came forward:…

I am not scared of the topic anymore than you are afraid of defending the president's decision to end the shutdown by accepting the same offer Democrats offered him before the shutdown began five weeks ago.
I didn't understand …

In my view, there simply is no evidence to support your claim of a "conspiracy against the American people." At least, the opinion pieces you have pasted into threads over the years have not provided such evidence.

Haven't had the time, reformed. Been too busy being a "blind, ignorant, liberal lackey, idiot, bufoon [sic], uneducated, stupid, outrageous, pig-headed, dumb, annoying, and any other number of adjectives...snake." It's that "insanity" …

Today President Trump ended his shut down of a portion of the federal government... by accepting the deal that Democrats had on the table 35 days ago, when the shut down began.
Five weeks of hardship and anxiety for 800,000 federal worke…

In my view, that Cyprian (or anyone else) quoted the verse is not a primary source of information about the verse's meaning and consequence to the Trinity conversation. The verse's meaning is best reported, I contend, by the verse itse…

It's worth noting that 1 John 5.8 identifies the three witnesses to which 1 John 5.7 refers: (emphasis added)

Snake! An addition to the invective! Good job! No respectable juvenile name caller risks redundancy. I respect your creativity, reformed.

I was all set to applaud your expansive vocabulary, but then you had to include "liberal lackey," "idiot," and "buffoon" in your list of adjectives. (Spoiler Alert: They're nouns) Don't fear! Learning is a journey, not a dest…

Now get your snark straight, reformed! David would NOT be pleased that in the span of two sentences you morphed from idiots to hacks with stuffed rear ends. Why, even the snarkiest of juvenile name callers believes in message disciplin…

For the reasons I just stated, the president's revelation of the congressional trip's stop in an active war zone indeed revealed details that should have remained secret.

A couple of observations, reformed:
1) Given that you follow the news as closely as you do, I'm surprised that you seem not to know that the issue with the speaker's safety was that the president publicly revealed the destinati…

Whether you "see evidence of (your) claims" is not germane to the point I made, Dave - that references to "religious crackpots" in your posted responses to other CD participants contribute little if anything to constructive forum discu…

I don't know what you mean by this claim, Dave. And as a response to another CD participant, its imagery of "religious crackpots" contributes little if anything to a constructive forum discussion.

In my view, the "best place to begin" a study of the Bible is the Bible. In making that claim, I don't for an instant dismiss other sources as useless or without merit! I refer to extra-biblical sources all the time. M…

The point of the question I asked, Dave, was to highlight what seems to me to be the obvious value of beginning one's search for a "biblical perspective" with the Bible.

As a matter of principle, Dave, do you believe that a person can ALSO "gain a biblical perspective on God in trinity, Christ as God and Man, the Deity of Christ and Sin" by beginning with the Bible? Or in your view, is a "biblical pers…

Once again you express your theology, and that I respect. In my view, however, Revelation does not support your claim. In fact, Revelation 1.4-5 makes it clear that Jesus is NOT "the one who was, and is, and is to come." Plus, there is…
