There are three that I use. 1) The Greek New Testament; Aland, Black, etal Published by the United Bible Societies. You need the Greek-English Dictionary of the New Testament (Same publisher)

2) The Complete Word Study New Testament (KJV) Translated by Dr. Spiros Zodhiates. This one has a concordance dictionary etc.. all included. It is a bit on the pricey side but you can get it through Amazon.com. Serious word of warning you will need a magnifying glass for the dictionary.

Both of these have some built in Biases so the one I use most often is:

3) E-sword. You can use it on line of get a copy (CD)for a small fee. http://www.e-sword.net/ This has every translation available and the guy that runs the site is a really nice dedicated Christian. I also have a copy of a paper I wrote about a year or so ago that goes into great detail about the "Born again" vs "Born from above". Can I e-mail you a copy? 3)

“God Bless you Newt and welcome home!”

Amen!!! I’m so happy Newt is now joyfully converted Catholic—like me!

Ann, I don’t have time to search ALL those threads. If you do, go ahead. Yes, we agree that all who believe in Jesus Christ as Saviour are Christians. It doesn’t matter what denomination we are. Jesus founded the Body of Christ, not the Catholic church. His was the catholic church, not the Catholic church. The small c’d catholic church means universal. That’s all of us who believe on Him. I know you are a devout Catholic and believe differently.

I was just thinking how much I love Pope Benedict and how sincere he is about his faith. That is quite a testament!
Welcome to our church Miss Marple! : )

"Now, if the Catholic church can recognize the validity of your baptism, why can't you return the same respect?"

Well said, LE! : )

Good for newt on the religious front. Now as a voter I would like to hear his full confession on the swindle he engineered on the term limits vote.

The only part of the contract with America that failed, and newt engineered it with changed votes. His own promise, and he caused it to fail.

As far as I am concerned he is unforgiven.

The Catholic Church was the Original Body of Christ......all other denominations are Breakaway Sects who are ALSO part of the BODY of CHRIST.....why can’t you just admit the facts. It shouldn’t be demeaning to you to do so...it is a FACT.....not an opinion.

Like I said repeatedly, I read it in the Bible. Still waiting for someone to show me where in the Bible it says that you must be a member of any particular church in order to be saved.

No truly born-again Christian could become a Catholic.

From my perspective, no truly thinking Catholic would ever need to be born again.

The choice is made with the sacrament of Confirmation. It confirms the choice made in Baptism.

Who makes the choice in infant baptism? The infant certainly can’t.
