I returned home, still reeling with the excitement of the conversation with Bob. He was so excited about what he was doing it was hard to just go to work at Rockwell the next morning for another day of the status quo.
What Happened To Quickverse

I wanted to see what was now available in QV, so I did a Google search and found a special on QV 10 upgrade for $19.95 (still on). I contacted Tech Support at Wordsearch and a gentleman name Mike assisted me in how to get all my books and bibles into QV 10. I tried it and was successful. QV 10 is not as simple and easy to use as QV 4, but it has some really good features. I am sure I will get use to it in time.
I suppose whatever version of the program I use is built upon the framework and architecture (for example, STEP) developed beforehand, and you and your team would seem to be the ones to thank for that. I have been a software developer and have experienced what I consider to be bad management too, so my heart goes out to you and your team.
I loved QuickVerse . . . and hated the divorce once it was no longer easy to use or updated. (I forget which.) Never did like the substitute(s). WordSearch is OK but just not QV. Every once in a while I go back online to see if it might have experienced a resurrection. Still disappointed, but have bought everything I can from Laridian . . . just because I like whatever Craig does. As a retired minister/college teacher I spend a lot of time in more academic programs with access to lots of original language resources . . . BUT PocketBible is my goto app when I need to look up something quick. Keep up the good work.
Is there a list somewhere of what QuickVerse titles I had versus Wordsearch titles? I know I had version 5 and I thought I had a later version as well. I did find an annotation that my Customer # was 996040. I ask because the only things that have transferred so far seem to be Wordsearch resources.
I think if you call to Michael Lechtenberger Perhaps he can tell you. He is emigrated to Faithlife , but I think he is now in word search still to accommodate the merge to Logos software. He worked as a Tech support in quickverse.
Upon starting the program, the first thing I noted was that it has anattractive, functional, and intuitive interface that uses a mixture of panes andtabs. There are a number ways to personalize the interface and set preferences,and it even provides some helpful suggested layouts that depend upon the kind ofwork you are planning to do. There is a good variety of English Bibletranslations provided in the Standard edition and quite a few other usefulresources, though a number of them are the old chestnuts widely available on theweb. (Check the productcomparison chart to see what is available in the various editions.) All inall, I believe that this program would be quickly and easily learned by someonewho wanted simply to jump quickly into studying the biblical text.
I'm guessing that there must be at least 1000 pictures. They are all 360 x 240, 96dpi pics(which is not particularly good resolution) sorted by biblical verse or by title.They are well organized with helpful captions and links to biblical texts, butthe pictures are somewhat dated. (I'm guessing 10+ years old?)
Examples of Nescience include:God acquiring information from sources outside His eternal simplicity, such as watching what men do.Learning new things.Being surprised.Repenting of actions.Deciding to do new things.
Presentism is the idea that the only thing that exists is the present. The past only exists in memory and the future only exists in hope. While we can talk about things that happened in the past (even in terms of timeframes) those things do not exist in the same way that the present exists.
Notice the starting sentence is prepping the story. It informs the reader about what the story is depicting and then gives starting conditions. In Genesis 1:1, water and a formless earth exist. In Genesis 2:4, no plants exist and God uses rain to create vegetation. This is before creating man.
Gen 2:19 Now out of the ground the LORD God had formed every beast of the field and every bird of the heavens and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. And whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name.
Gen 11:6 And the LORD said, Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them.
This is a cascading contingency plan. This is hedging against the possibility of both plan A and plan B failing. God does not know how many signs it will take to make Israel believe, but He gives enough to cover what would be reasonable.
Leviticus 26:27 comes in the middle of a long promise of contingent punishments. Israel is being warned that God will punish them if they rebel. God promises punishment upon punishment, contingent on when Israel repents. If Israel repents sooner, then they avoid what might have happened. The entire section is structured as if Israel might respond to any particular punishment and then forgo the intensified punishment.
Deu 8:2 And you shall remember that the LORD your God led you all the way these forty years in the wilderness, to humble you and test you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep His commandments or not.
This statement is found in Moses recounting to Israel their own history with God, such that they can know who God is what what God has done. The depictions are meant by Moses to be taken as historical accounts.
Furthermore, the use of this verse to prop up contradictory theology fails for other reasons. The use of the verse in this manner does not tell us Calvinism is right and everyone else is wrong. Instead, the verse show prompt individuals to consentrate on what is revealed.
Both these readings are in contrast to any omniscience of all future events. God states what will happen. It does not happen. David was able to use knowledge of possible events to subvert those events, much like God leading Israel out of Egypt by a certain route which avoided the Philistines in case they would decide to return to Egypt (Exo 13:17).
God tells David that God will do whatever David chooses to do. Not only does this illustrate contingent future events, but also shows God delegating decisions. God is not determining everything, but even allows His punishment to be subject to human input.
Job 42:7 After the LORD had spoken these words to Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite: My anger burns against you and against your two friends, for you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has.
This particular comment is a comment by Zophar the Naamathite. This is someone God specifically condemns for wrong speech about Him. The prooftext is suspect, and is not to be used for theology (other than understanding what wrong theology might look like).
While this text does not have theological weight (Eliphaz being condemned by God for wrong speech in Job 42:7), it can tell the reader something about common ancient views on omniscience. Eliphaz is citing common conjecture. Yahweh has omniscience, but it is of a type which is based in what God can see. Clouds can block that vision. This vision blocking is not standard belief in righteous Israel, but it is found among those whom wish to marginalize Yahweh.
Psalms 11:4 presents a familiar image of God. God is in heaven and watches what man does. God actively tests man to find out what they will do. The same theme is echoed in verses such as Psalms 33:13, Psalms 66:7, 2 Chronicles 16:9, Proverbs 15:3, Jeremiah 17:10, Jeremiah 23:24, and Hebrews 4:13.
It is beyond the context of this verse to stretch the meaning to cover times such as when Moses convinces God not to destroy Israel. Likewise, this verse is not about God repenting of what He said He would do to the Ninevetes after they repent. If God is protecting His people, others cannot thwart that will. This verse is just not about situations in which God desires someone to act one way, and they choose to act in an opposite manner. This verse is about power contests, not personal rejection.
With regard to secret movements, what Solomon says of the heart of a king, that it is turned hither and thither, as God sees meet (Prov. 21:1), certainly applies to the whole human race, and has the same force as if he had said, that whatever we conceive in our minds is directed to its end by the secret inspiration of God.

Those who would use this as a prooftext for God causing all things do not have a contextual basis for the claim. In context Yahweh declares what He is planning. Extending this to all things that ever happen is not warranted. General rules in the Bible state that when God is going to do something, to prove He is the actor, He will declare it before it happens. In This way people can know that it was God who did it, and not happenstance. The idea is not that God generally does all things ever, but specific major acts with spectacle.
Isa 55:10 For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower And bread to the eater, Isa 55:11 So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
In Ezekiel 4, God is commanding Ezekiel to perform a series of symbolic acts to prophesy to the people of what is to come. Some of these tasks are quite hard, such as sleeping on his side for over a year. One such command is for Ezekiel to cook his food with human poop/dung. Ezekiel was to use the poop as fuel for his cooking fire. The symbolic purpose was to teach Israel that they too would eat unclean food, as the human excrement would defile the food.
God is described as having begun to build a judgment by locusts. This is an action that God never finishes. Amos intercedes and God repents. The same series of events occur again after God begins preparing fire as judgement of Israel. Again, God never finishes what He began. Again the prophet intercedes and God repents. This passage would be odd in light of total omniscience of future events. Why would God begin activities He knows He will never complete? Why even delay punishment knowing that He would eventually punish anyways. The delayed punishment seems not to have borne any fruit. 2ff7e9595c
