    Perfect for what?

    That is the question at the heart of our argument.

    What wrong think did Thayer and Winer advance though, as Thayer seemed to give what the Greek stated, even if he might not have agreed with it!

    We have a perfect God, not a perfect Bible!

    You may. I have a perfect Bible BECAUSE I have a perfect God.
    How do you know? Paul may have never really said that....you don't have the originals.

    That's why I asked perfect FOR WHAT? I may not have a perfect translation, but I do have God's perfect and inspired Word. I am so sorry that you don't.

    I have Thayer and the 3 by Winer and there is no doubt that both are anti Trinity. Regardless of what anyone says on here about Thayer I know firsthand

    One can translate off the Critical GT, or Majority, or the TR and have still word of God into English

    How can you have the Word of God uninspired by God? Doesn't "word" in Word of God signify that it is comes from God and not man?

    We veering further and further from the OP, but I would be interested for you to define your words:
    • Inerrant
    • Inspired
    • Infallible
    What do you mean by each of these? Thanks.
