I'm in my last and fourth semester of biblical Greek. We use Wallace's text on Beyond the Basics. I read what Marcus wrote and his reasons why "eis" in Acts 2:38 is not causal after this semester is over.

My only issue with using articles like this to back up Biblical beliefs is that mere men wrote these papers. Opinionated men, I'm sure....and even in 2011, I can find hundreds and hundreds of "papers" on scriptural interpretation that would support several different positions.
When we get down to where we're debating the meaning of the term 'eis' with multiple pages of doctrinal papers, we're in trouble, in my opinion.
