  Thanks, Leolaia. It doesn't really affect the "Title" argument too severely, since it is agreed that the Alpha and the Omega also self-identifies by use of the title 'ho protos kai ho eschatos' ('the First and the Last', for the benefit of other readers) at Revelation 22:13, and in Revelation 1:12-20 it is clear that this titular identifier belongs to the Son of man. The Minority Texts and the Majority Texts agree in these places.

  I just wanted to know whether a Textus Receptus versus WH verbal faceoff was a prudent course to pursue in a discussion regarding Revelation 1:11. Seems pretty clear such a discussion would be ethically irresponsible.

  Thank you so much!

  Has your Relationship with your Parents Improved or Regressed as you Aged ?

  i guess this time of year with the holidays my thoughts gravitate to family and for me it's usually a time of reflection on how my relationships have been going with my family .

  thinking about what i want to accomplish or avoid in the coming year regarding family relationships.

  thus i thought of this question in my thread as a way of reflection on my life ; and thought it might help some of you reflect as well.

  My parents still don't speak to me. I strongly suspect I will not be welcome at their funeral, or mentioned in their will.

  Well, not unless the religion capsizes under the already topheavy weight of its own falsehoods.

  Leolaia and/or Narkissos,

  Is Textus Receptus more correct that WH at Revelation 1:11? Should "o protos kai o eschatos" and "ton Α kai ton Ω" appear in this verse? It would be very insteresting to me, if these should appear in the text. Basically, it would directly link "the Alpha and the Omega" with the Son of man in verses 12-20.

  What are the arguments, pro and con, in the translational world?

  Thanks, in advance, and I hope you both had wonderful holidays!

  Respectfully,

  Have you ever made a JW eat "humble pie"?

  Do you mean, "Have you ever made a JW recant on some point they made that was completely false?" Or do you mean, "Have you ever made a JW repent of their past bad acts against humanity?"

  If the former, I did that just the other day, most recently. A poster named "diogenes" claimed that only male animals could be sacrificed according to the Mosaic Law. Preposterous and easily disproven.

  He started that campaign in 1918. When he first said it, their clock started ticking. Again.

  Who was wrong?

  I didn't think the maxim was that you couldn't polish a turd. I thought the maxim was that even if you did, it was still just a turd.

  Still, very funny.

  I suspect he intended to allow John Doe to assume he meant something he did not mean, and spring a November surprise on him.
