Do these texts have any bearing on our understanding of 2 Corinthians 4:4?
Luk 12:58
ReplyDeleteMatthew 7:1-3
ReplyDeleteThe Bloke on Trinity Delusion does a very good job of demonstrating that the God of this age is a reference to YHWH and not Satan, as in Greek it is God with definite article, rather it is referring to God's just condemnation on an apostate Jewry given over to destruction, check it out on YouTube. Peace and Love from God the Father.
ReplyDeleteDear In,
ReplyDeleteI give credit where credit is due. So I would not try to diminish the work of Trinity Delusion, but I disagree with many positions he espouses and that includes his view of 2 Cor. 4:4. We've discussed the text here before, and I encourage you to consider the dissertation link I posted on this subject. I have also seen his video about the issue.
All the best,
Edgar
