I am a Canadian, married with kid, and working in Hong Kong. I usually answer posts from a reformed / protestant / evangelical perspective.

People I have encountered on this site seem to be a ‘whole bunch of good people’. Even those who sharply disagree with my own point of view.

I am a huge sinner but am happy knowing God's grace will keep me in his grip.

comment Why do many chinese Bibles translate “Logos” in John 1:1 as 道 (dao)?
@user1539 - yes it seems very fitting. Actually living in Hong Kong I see this character everywhere as it also is used as a 'way' or 'path' so that it is the same as the english 'road'. Its on almost every street sign. Reminds me of 'I am the way, the truth.' Cheers.

@swasheck - Sure, I added a longer version to more fully explain the deeper reasoning that I originally summarized. Cheers.

comment What is the meaning of “poor in spirit” in Matthew 5:3
@libertas - By the way you took my words a little too literally - in a court of law I would probably say 'a core' not 'the core', 'or approaching the core' - Of course Christ himself is 'the core' and all our happines depends on his glory in it, and our faith in him - but recognizing this is being 'poor in spirit'. Cheers.

comment Does the New Testament predict Jesus' return on Rosh Hashanah?
@JonEricson - I found the link and did some fimat improvements. I also made it clearer that the text need not distinguish between what kind of trumpet, they all carry the same Greek word. I had to look it up, good advice. If you see futher formating improvements please go ahead. Cheers.

comment Are the Rabbinic rules of hand washing before eating bread related to their ruling that the scriptures were unclean?
@JonEricson - sure I don't mind.
