    Why does the book of Revelation say that you can anoint your eyes with medicine to cure blindness?

    So you’re kind of like the soccer player who just wants to play offense, but never play defense. You want to score on other people, but when they score on you, you just say, “that wasn’t my goal.” And when I ask you where your goal is, you refuse to reveal its location, lest somebody score on...

    Why does the book of Revelation say that you can anoint your eyes with medicine to cure blindness?

    Ok then. Where is the Christian Bible, prior to the 1800’s that omitted the book of Tobit?

    Why does the book of Revelation say that you can anoint your eyes with medicine to cure blindness?

    The early church used the Old Latin for the first 4 centuries. Is that not true? If so, then what did they use?

    What’s LCMS? Seems to me that they’re in heaven. Floating in space seems pretty boring.

    What do you think Jesus had to say about money?

    One thing that I think is that Jesus did NOT condone usury, like a lot of people think.

    Why does the book of Revelation say that you can anoint your eyes with medicine to cure blindness?

    What do you mean? The early churches used either the Greek Septuagint, or Latin translations of the Septuagint, called the Old Latin. In 400 AD, Jerome made a new translation of the Bible in to Latin. It was called the New Latin, also called the Vulgate. But it was NOT a translation of the...

    So does Tobit belong in the Bible or doesn’t it?

    Do you believe the story of Noah’s ark is literal or figurative?

    So do you believe that Noah’s Ark was just a figurative story?

    Why does the book of Revelation say that you can anoint your eyes with medicine to cure blindness?

    So let me get this straight. Tobit doesn’t belong in the Bible, even though it was in every Christian Bible for the first 1800 years of Church history?

    Why does the book of Revelation say that you can anoint your eyes with medicine to cure blindness?

    The question is, can you or anyone show any evidence that Christians had Bibles that omitted Tobit back then?

    Why does the book of Revelation say that you can anoint your eyes with medicine to cure blindness?

    You’re trying to change the subject by focusing on a technicality. The point I was making is that the early church used the Old Latin. The Old Latin manuscripts that we have (granted 4th century) contain the book of Tobit. You cannot show any Bible before the 4th century that omitted Tobit. Nor...

    Why does the book of Revelation say that you can anoint your eyes with medicine to cure blindness?

    Perhaps? Those are conjectures. The fact that Mileto and Athanasius both omitted Esther says to me that they were just going by the beliefs of unbelieving Jews. The blind leading the blind. I’ve heard that the Jews had some disagreements among themselves whether or not Esther belongs in the Bible.

    Why does the book of Revelation say that you can anoint your eyes with medicine to cure blindness?

    The point I was making was that every Christian Bible before the 1800’s contained the book of Tobit. And you cannot show a single example of a Christian Bible from the beginning of the church until 1885 that did not include Tobit. Yes, the Old Latin was used by the early church, and it...

    Why does the book of Revelation say that you can anoint your eyes with medicine to cure blindness?

    Good idea!! Mileto and Athanasius rejected the wonderful story of Esther. And those are the EARLIEST lists! Let’s take them out and increase the profit margins for Bible printers!

    Why does the book of Revelation say that you can anoint your eyes with medicine to cure blindness?

    So Tobit was in every Christian Bible for the first 1800 years of Christianity. But it’s “just apocrypha”?

    Have you ever heard of this Newsboys song?

    Can you show an example from scripture where someone bowed with their face to the ground when meeting a random stranger?

    Have you ever heard of this Newsboys song?

    It seems to me that Lot behaved the exact same way that people behave when they see an angel. What did Lot do when he first saw the angels? He bowed down with his face to the ground. That’s exactly what Manoah did when he first found out he was looking at an angel. And the Angel of the Lord...

    Have you ever heard of this Newsboys song?

    I remember when I was in junior high or high school, when I was roller blading on a recreational trail, and I was listening to a cassette tape on my Sony Walkman. The album was called “Stepping Up To the Microphone.” It was by the Newsboys. One of the famous songs on that album, which they...
