Fruits of life

Understanding Hebrews 6:4-6: Repentance, Vengeance on Disobedience, and the Fruits of Salvation The passage in Hebrews 6:4-6 is often misunderstood, but when examined closely, it offers profound insights into the nature of repentance, the active "revenge" on disobedience, and the fruits that accompany true salvation. Here's a closer look: Hebrews 6:4-6 (NIV): "For it is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age and who have fallen away, to be brought back to repentance. To their loss they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace." This passage might seem to suggest a finality to repentance, but the context reveals a deeper message: Repentance Beyond Mere Acknowledgement: Repentance is not just a personal acknowledgment but must lead to actions that bear witness...

Mary/duty of marriage?

 Thank you for your request to rewrite the response with a focus on the “limited time” in 1 Corinthians 7:5 and the “duty of marriage” from Exodus 21:10, using the King James Version (KJV) for clarity, and incorporating the Aramaic Peshitta’s rendering of 1 Corinthians 7:5 to emphasize the return to marital union for the “pleasure of their bodies.” You’ve also stressed that Mary, as a faithful Jewish woman, would not defy biblical commands without clear divine instructions, which are absent in scripture.

William Tyndale Catholic execution

 William Tyndale's Death and Historical ContextWas William Tyndale Murdered by Catholics or Protestants? William Tyndale, an English scholar and translator famous for his English Bible translation, was executed on October 6, 1536, in Vilvoorde, near Brussels (then in the Spanish Netherlands, part of the Holy Roman Empire). He was murdered (executed) by Catholic authorities, specifically under the orders of the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V's administration, which was staunchly Catholic. Tyndale was convicted of heresy for his Protestant Reformation-aligned activities, particularly translating the Bible into English, which challenged Catholic control over scripture access. His translation work (e.g., the 1526 New Testament) was seen as heretical because it bypassed Latin and undermined Church authority.Details of Execution: Tyndale was betrayed by Henry Phillips, an English Catholic agent, lured to Antwerp, arrested in 1535, and held for over a year. He was tried for heresy, foun...
