translators were aware of what "pas" means "pas" - All:"radically means "all." Used without the article it means "every," every kind or variety. So the RV marg. in Eph 2:21, "every building," and the text in Eph 3:15, "every family," and the RV marg. of Act 2:36, "every house;" or it may signify "the highest degree," the maximum of what is referred to, as, "with all boldness" Act 4:29. Before proper names of countries, cities and nations, and before collective terms, like "Israel," it signifies either "all" or "the whole," e.g., Mat 2:3; Act 2:36. Used with the article, it means the whole of one object. In the plural it signifies "the totality of the persons or things referred to." Used without a noun it virtually becomes a pronoun, meaning "everyone" or "anyone." In the plural with a noun it means "all." One form of the neuter plural (panta) signifies "wholly, together, in all ways, in all things," Act 20:35; 1Cr 9:25. The neuter plural without the article signifies "all things severally," e.g., Jhn 1:3; 1Cr 2:10; preceded by the article it denotes "all things," as constituting a whole, e.g., Rom 11:36; 1Cr 8:6; Eph 3:9.
See EVERY, Note (1), WHOLE."

2 Peter 2:1
"But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even DENYING THE LORD THAT BOUGHT THEM, and bring upon themselves swift destruction"
In what sense did the Lord buy (redeem) them? “Now, this verse poses no problem if you understand two things. First, the word ‘Lord’ in the phrase ‘the Lord that bought them’ is the Greek word despotes. Which speaks of sovereign Master and Lord. It’s strong emphasis on the, on the strength of God’s sovereignty and Lordship…However, this Greek word despotes, is almost never used in the New Testament to speak of Christ. It usually is an expression that applies to the Father. When it speaks of Christ as Lord usually the Greek text uses the word kurios. Now if these false teachers were Jewish false teachers, as it appears they were, than this might even be a reference to an Old Testament passage. Peter may have been paraphrasing Deuteronomy 32:5-6 “…Is He not thy Father that hath bought thee?” And in that verse, that Old Testament verse, “thy Father that hath bought thee” plainly refers to the nation’s temporal deliverance from Egypt..."http://www.biblebb.com/files/MAC/SC03-1027.htm |

I see my point about King David "a man after God's own heart" who had multiple wives was ignored. Of course, it was, because nobody who is familiar with the Bible would call David a man living in continual sin, yet we know he had multiple wives (and children by those multiple wives, lest someone think these marriages were consummated.)I don't see anyone arguing that polygamy is "wise". I think the Bible is clear that polygamy is not "wise" or "ideal", but it is adding to the Bible to call polygamy sin. The Bible is clear about what is sin, and polygamy isn't it. The New Test itself says that whatever isn't forbidden is allowed--although not all things are wise. According to God, not all unwise things are sin, even if some of you would like to make them sin. Myself, I will try to live wisely, but I won't sin by adding regulations to the Bible which just aren't there. |

interesting made one of the most uncalvinist quotes I have ever heard since I have been on this website. It wasn't my quote, it was a quote from a Wesleyan arminian which I found quite interesting. |
