Dave Pack has this to say about James Moffatt and Adam Clarke:
One such individual was James Moffatt. He translated a commendable version of the Bible. Yet the message went completely over his head. He made the truth of God much more clear, but he—along with the whole world—remained blinded to its meaning.
Even in the preface to the revised and final edition of Moffatt’s The Bible, A New Translation, he made the following comments: “This is great literature and great religious literature, this collection of ancient writings which we call the Bible, and any translator has a deep sense of responsibility as he undertakes to transmit it to modern readers.” Here was an individual of great intelligence. Yet without God’s Spirit and guidance, he considered the Bible mere literature.
Adam Clarke, writer of the famous six-volume commentary of the entire Bible, also did not get the message. Some of the Pharisees were individuals of great intellect who studied Scripture for endless hours—yet all in vain. If these and other such men of great intellect failed to get the message, we should never assume that we could study the Bible and, on our own, automatically understand it.
Stupid imbeciles! If only you had Dave Pack's mind boggling knowledge you would have understood your own Bible and Commentary! From Pack's "12 Stupid Rules To Ruin A Study of the Bible."
Ignorant men who have made much more of a mark upon the world that all of the Armstrongists put together in all the decades they've been around: ACoGs amounting to exactly nothing on a Global Scale (multiple puns intended).
ReplyDeleteThe ACoG leaders piss on people.
ReplyDeleteThat's their way to try and put their "mark" upon the world.
And since they are fairly impotent, and have so few followers, they're frustrated and piss harder on the few minions they do have.
You know norm, urination by the Guards on the Prisoners was a part of the Standford Prison Experiment, graphically illustrated in the German subtitled movie "Das Experiment".
ReplyDeleteAll of which is a natural result when Guards are commissioned to "maintain order" in the Prison.
