I promised that I would not allow myself to be drawn into this debate/discussion, however, after reading all of the things you have written, especially the statements quoted, I would like to ask one thing of you, namely this:
Please provide at least one scriptural passage which reveals the length of time that this
"purging (of) the sinner" lasts. Will it be one day, a week, month, year, or perhaps decades, or centuries? Being confident that you cannot provide at least one scriptural passage to support such an absurd allegation, then by your own words you have just blown your
"theory" of UR right out of the window!
Yes, I know, you say that Young's translation of the Bible asserts this, but just who is Young? Is he such a pious mortal that he cannot be deceived into embracing and publishing something that is in error? Young is a fallible mortal, just as you and I. And we have been warned of the consequences of placing our dependence upon man instead of God. At least the contents of the KJV of the Bible were written by a group of men, which seems to me to adhere more closely to the biblical requirement to ascertain the truthfulness of things through the words of two or more witnesses.
