    Just for a little interjection on continuing in sin, if it's possible or not, consult Romans 6

    6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may
    abound?
    6:2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer
    therein?
    6:3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ
    were baptized into his death?
    6:4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as
    Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even
    so we also should walk in newness of life.
    6:5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we
    shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
    6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body
    of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
    6:7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.
    6:8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live
    with him:
    6:9 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more;
    death hath no more dominion over him.
    6:10 For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he
    liveth unto God.
    6:11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but
    alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
    6:12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey
    it in the lusts thereof.
    6:13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness
    unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from
    the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto
    God.
    6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the
    law, but under grace.
    6:15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but
    under grace? God forbid.
    6:16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey,
    his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or
    of obedience unto righteousness?
    6:17 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have
    obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered
    you.
    6:18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of
    righteousness.
    6:19 I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your
    flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness
    and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members
    servants to righteousness unto holiness.
    6:20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from
    righteousness.
    6:21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now
    ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
    6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye
    have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
    6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life
    through Jesus Christ our Lord.

    I hope that doesn't "kill" the thread!

    77 why do you refuse to answer this question and comply with my request? I am very serious about this matter and as you have posted twice since my last request above and in both posts you ignored my request I feel I have no choice but to delete your last two posts. Please don't post on this thread again until you can answer my question.

    I got a question though Bob. When the NIV says "Shrine Prostitute", can you get the same meaning out of it as the word Sodomite and know what it is talking about?

    The NIV translates this word as shrine prostitute.

    The NASB translates this word as cult prostitute.

    The AV1611 (1769 revision) translates this word as sodomite.

    I ask you, which is the most formally equivalent term to translate qadesh?
