Why? At least, why anymore than any other doctrinal position? Are you able to show how a scriptural misunderstanding that would lead one falsely to the open theist position is moot when one uses the "correct" translation? Or, if you're in favor of open theism, how the correct translation leads...

What does any of this have to do with open theism?

No, what you are suggesting is that the Bible does not have enough information to fully interpret it, and that you have some special knowledge that you can add, but we can't verify the source. Why is that a better solution than admitting some mistakes have crept in that don't change the message?

And?

Or punditicide?

Let's assume that open theists are like the rest of the Christian population, as you describe. What point are you trying to make? If the bible we have is not useful, because it has significant errors, additions, or missing parts, then open theists are in the same condition every other type of...

@Right Divider answered pretty clearly, and while we differ on a number of things, I'm at a loss to know how he could have made it any clearer. Can you explain what needs clarifying?

Amway?

Accordion to whom?

The other thing is that we know this is limited to the things that don't make us God. Jesus will live forever, and so will we. Jesus is almighty, but we won't be.

But also like the angels, right? At least like them regarding marriage. What do you think? Will it be possible for angels to fall, or does something happen to them to prevent it? Maybe my question is "Why?" And depending on previous questions... I figured that's where he was pointing, but I'd...

I didn't see too many uses of "dispensation" in the gospels. I think the reason it gets used for Paul is that he joins it to the idea of "toward" his readers. Otherwise stewardship would work fine for his, as well. I like to back off from the standard uses of theological terms when I can, and...
