I think assumptions about what inspiration means and how the Spirit acts in that process is a big part of this. So, we might struggle to see some things here the same way because we might have different assumptions. I actually think a lot of disagreements on interpretation are based on different...

Yeah, I spent a good amount of time recently looking at Matthew’s fulfillment statements. The double meaning is a possibility, but I don’t think that’s what’s going on. For example, I don’t think Psalm 22 has either a single meaning or a second/double meaning of predicting the crucifixion.

This seems like a good thread for this question. My daughter recently graduated from college. She has some private loans with me as the co-signer. I assume the next steps are to consolidate her loans and remove me as a co-signer? She has a job lined up, so that's good. Should she expect her...

Do your own research, buddy.

Olynyk was a great Zard. We're going to miss him.

Yep, and I suspect my dad will downsize at some point. But, he doesn't make decisions quickly or easily. He bought a new car a couple months ago after thinking about it for literally four years. He's lived in this area for 50 years and this house for almost 25 years. Moving and downsizing is...

Haha, true. Well, my mom was pretty good at cleaning into her 70s. My dad, not so much. She passed away in 2019 so it has just been him in this way-too-big house. My sister convinced him to hire a cleaning service to come in once a month, but that doesn't help with the general picking up.

Yeah, it was important to my mom to have a house where out-of-town kids and grandkids could stay. Most of the year, it was way too much house for my parents, but it met its purpose during holidays. I value that, too, but would prefer to find another solution because I also really like the idea...

Thanks. I think this helps me understand the complaint. Medicine is highly specialized. Yeah, a general practitioner will provide some general guidance on all sorts of things, but once you get into details or more difficult aspects, they are going to want to send you to a specialist. So, they...

I’m increasingly fascinated by how different our experiences are. Are people saying that their experience with doctors is that they don’t want to talk to you about root causes? That’s never been my experience. It’s been the opposite.

You come down to NoVa a lot, right? I’m surprised you haven’t been to WV. Head out to Harper’s Ferry next time you are in the area.

I don’t think Hosea is talking about Christ. Some people assume he is because of how Matthew uses it. But, when people read Hosea, they tend to agree the son is Israel. So then another solution is to say that Hosea was talking about Israel, but God had another message embedded into Hosea that...

Since I don't play fantasy anymore, things like projections and rankings don't really interest me. However, articles on draft strategies, best practices, or data analysis is something I'd find interesting. Like an academic journal for fantasy football. I always enjoyed discussing Stud RB Theory...

Looks like MRA 10 isn’t eligible.
