Hello Cy,
Thanks again for this reference.
I just wanted to say that of recent I have become increasingly aware of the rather intensely intellectual so-called "anti-missionary" dogma we see on the net and this is right in line with that. But it still comes off as far too aggresive, twisting every single scripture one after the other, as if to convince by sheer repetition.
It's an interesting side-stepping concept, but the OPTION for Jesus' prehuman existence is so prelevant in scripture, both NT and OT, I don't think these arguments are sufficient to overturn them.
The overall nature of the arguments comes off as more desperate than anything elese to me. But I have seen similar anxious arguments in anti-missionary circles.
Thanks, again, for the references. I truly injoyed them!
Cheers,
Bibleman
P.S. Nice picture too! Always nice to fit a face with the screen name when possible. But you know what, only the "cute" people do that. (smile) Or at least someone with at least a nice photo of themselves. Snowball is a cute as he can be too!
But the main thing is, it is a REAL person here. It adds to the reality of a specific person somehow.
Cheers
