In reply to: Wade A. Tisthammer 's message, "Real prophets, real prophecy." on 09/19/03 8:10pm

Yabbut is an ancient Jewish term that is still used today at the beginning of rebuttals or replies in which the speaker acknowledges what the other person has said, but wishes to add something to it, i.e., "Yabbut that's not exactly what I mean."

Seriously, I kind of agree with Ben that we should examine the fruits of their differing "messages from God." However, there is no one solution in this for all mankind (sorry, "personkind" - PC), since we tend to prefer different fruits.

Thanks,

Ron
