RafeAndersen Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Yes, He sure does. A few years ago seeing him using it prompted me to check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep...that is where I got my first look at Accordance...I think he must bring Oak Tree a lot of customers! It is cool to see what his layout looks like!

Steve Wilkinson Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Wow, nice to log in and see one of my favorite Christian apologist's name on the front page. I can't even remember anymore how I first leaned about Accordance. I think I remember contacting someone who was working with the texts who referred me to Oak Tree. It was in the mid-90s so might have been 1.x or 2.x area. If I remember correctly though, James used to not be a Mac user and I got Accordance on 3.5" floppies, so I might just have him beat there in terms of Accordance longevity. Now, if I only knew how to use it 1/100th as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julia Falling Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Thanks for posting this. I'm a Dr. James White fan. I've watched a bunch of his YouTube videos and read both 1st and 2nd editions of his KJV Only book – the first one without knowing any Greek, the 2nd after four years of Greek. I have added what I learned to my User Notes (after checking it all out in the apparatus - I am extremely Berean). The material is well presented. The information is explained so well that those who know no original language can understand it. I appreciate not only his diligence and scholarship, but also his tone – never hateful or combative. He doesn't call anyone any names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony10000 Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 We can all learn from Dr. White and his diligent study of the Word of God. It would be really cool if the folks at Oak Tree could get him to do a video on the way that he uses Accordance in his studies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcdeacon Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Can anyone tell me the exact title of his KJV only book. I would like to read it and perhaps I can get it digitally on Kindle or ibooks. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Burgess Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Can anyone tell me the exact title of his KJV only book. I would like to read it and perhaps I can get it digitally on Kindle or ibooks. Bob The concept of KJV-only was recently discussed here. If you're interested in more information on this subject, I'd recommend D. A. Carson's The King James Version Debate: A Plea for Realism. It's available as a paperback and a Kindle book here.

Julia Falling Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Matthew & Ken – I agree that Dr. Carson's book is excellent. I read it nearly 20 years ago, though I think it was published much earlier. Reading both authors gives us a more complete understanding. Dr. White's books have many more examples, however, and I think that is important, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Nigro Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 (edited) In that first video with James, I wanted to grab the Apparatus window for the NA28 and drag/drop it to the right for him to switch it out with the NA27 I guess he didn't know he could do that so quickly on the fly. Great video as usual. Edited November 23, 2014 by Mark Nigro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great video as usual. My thoughts exactly, Mark. I would also like to read a good explanation for the inclusion of οὐχ when it never occurs in any Greek mss, only in a version(s). I'm going to do some digging and see what I can find. EDIT: Word NTC has a good discussion. Edited November 23, 2014 by Julie Falling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am all for reading short books! (Nothing agains Dr White!!!) If you want concise, Dr. White might not be your best choice. If you want a more thorough handling of the subject, Dr. White is the way to go. The argument the two men present is the same, and it is so very sound. While I regret that the issue even has to be addressed, I am very grateful to these men for doing it. Dr. White makes the point that this is primarily a problem with for English-speakers. Those whose native language is other than English really don't need get involved in the issue. Edited November 23, 2014 by Julie Falling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
