<br />
<br />
1- <i>Never</i> trust Internet sources. Anyone can say anything on the Internet, and they <i>always</i> do.<br />
<br />
2- Never turn to anti-X sources for information about X. Jewish anti-Christians will not fully inform you of the issues related to Christianity any more than Christian anti-Semites will properly inform you about Judaism. <br />
<br />
3- Try to gain an in-depth understanding about an issue before drawing a conclusion. Conclusions based on superficial knowledge and evidence are inevitably going to be made for the wrong reasons, even if you happen to guess correctly in any given instance. Knowing the right answer means understanding why an answer is right, not knowing a correct fact by happenstance--like guessing on a true-false question on a test.Hamblin of Jerusalemhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18073528213816480958noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5691905353363439911.post-42334101412122348462011-01-09T02:40:00.000+02:002011-01-09T02:40:10.152+02:00John 1:1-5My discussion of John 1:1-5 is up on Patheos.<br />

I have basically shifted gears in my previous study of John 17. I decided that I had covered so many issues, and there were so many more to cover, that I would do a commentary on all of John, instead of just John 17. I'm going to cannibalize my earlier material from John 17 and put it in logical places in my full John commentary.Hamblin of Jerusalemhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18073528213816480958noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5691905353363439911.post-68691869303194470272011-01-01T07:29:00.000+02:002011-01-01T07:29:03.135+02:00Introduction to JohnMy new column on Patheos introduces the Gospel of John<br />
