My point is that 1 Peter is talking of utterances, not Jesus, and the English translations (except those totally doctirnally tainited, such as some fundie BA version such as 21KJV) use the lower case "w" in for the word  (utterance)
 
through the living and enduring word of God. [NIV]
through the living and enduring word of God [NASB]
through a word of God -- living and remaining -- to the age; [Young's Literal]
by the word of God who liveth and remaineth for ever. [Douay-Rheims]
by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. [KJV]
through the word of God which lives and abides forever [NKJV]
through the living and enduring word of God [HCSB]
Do this because God has given you new birth by his message that lives on forever. [CEV] [dosen't even mention the word "word"!]
through the living and abiding word of God [ESV]

So, you are saying all of these are wrong...yet the Bible is inerrant. Brilliant/s.

No the discussion is about "reborn"(born again/above) and the assertion that this is the antecendant to the conclusion that John is a liar. I stated that your deconstruction(disarticulation) attempt had no bearing since this was about a mistranslation into Greek. I again stated that despite whatever the source was, Paul was talking about a rebirth since he mentioned seed.

Saying "NO" again would fall on deaf ears as the written word falls on blind eyes.
