Yes, the word is heteros. I would imagine you mean it is not allos. Daniel, I think the comment you made on the word would usually be associated with allos, not heteros. But I'm not too sure how significant this is. If Paul is referring to a spiri...

This is supported by 2Co 12.18, I think. The point of "another spirit" here, I think, is actually that it is a different spirit. I don't have the Greek right in front of me, but I'd guess the word is hETEROS, which may connote that the spirit the...

Why does Job come to mind? He was not possessed, he was oppressed. Big difference. Secondly, he did not have the Holy Spirit so he doesn't qualify as a post-Pentecost believer.

Oh - and "to receive another spirit", I believe if read in context, means accepting a false teaching....but you know, I could be wrong. :P

Profile Information

Tell us about yourself: I've studied over a dozen different interpretations of Creation for many years. It is a favorite topic of mine. I am disabled with a neurological condition called POTS. You can read all about it here. I spend a lot of my "free" (read "unpaid") time creating fractals. You can see some of my work at my online fractal gallery.

Also... Here on Theologica, I am one of the moderators and admins of the site. I didn't create it, but have been asked to be the point of escalation among the team of those that help in that area. I mention this as a "need to know" because if I caution you about something, it's more than just an opinion.

How would you describe yourself theologically?: Correct.

Who is the greatest theologian in the last 2000 years? (Besides Biblical People!): C.S. Lewis

What is your web-address?: http://www.1stImpressions.mobi

A time to celebrate

Bear with me as I pull an Andy Rooney and ramble on a bit. We celebrate the 4th of July. Not very profound, I know. LOL We also celebrate birthdays. We celebrate anniversaries. We celebrate Christmas, Easter, and even Groundhog Day. We even celebrate the Lord's supper. We celebrate with fireworks, costumes, music, showers, parties, and on and on. All this celebrating makes me wonder if the word has any significance any more. Do we actually celebrate these *days*, celebrate *on… Continue

Of Parenting and Painting(s)

I had a clear moment and was thinking last night about Father's Day. Parenthood reminds me of being a painter. Let me explain with a bit of a tangent. Since I can't read much any more, I enjoy audio books. One of the factors I consider in selecting the book is the length of it. I want to get the most for my money as long as it is a topic/genre I enjoy. Same thing for movies. While I don't go out to see them any more, if I am looking at two movies On Demand from my cable provider, I generally ten… Continue

Why I don't want to be in the car business

Congratulations, if you are an American, you now own Government Motors. We have people that either lied to us about the facts or couldn't see the inevitable coming when it came to a failed car maker, micro-managing our entire economy. That should give you chills. What really scared me though was the comments about how our "investment" was going to be returned. I'm all for getting "our money" back, but the government has already shown that they will spend countless billions to make sure GM contin… Continue

Dead to this world

Someone sent this to me asking for my input on it. It is really longer than I can digest, so I recommended they post it here for comment. I figured you guys would make a great sounding board.

Anyway, they asked me to post it and they'd just follow the discussion. There is some stuff proposed here that may disturb or upset your apple-cart. If so, help flesh-out why it is wrong and where.

Project Management and Politics

Maybe I don't understand politics, but I thought it operated in the real world. It was in the real world that I learned to do project management. I was told that there were three things that could be controlled in a project, time frame, cost, and quality. You could have any two of the three at the cost of the third. If you wanted it fast and cheap, you'd suffer quality. If you wanted quality, it would be expensive to do it quickly or cheaper if the schedule was more loose. You get… Continue
