As an arm chair theologian, I will remind you that the original written Greek did not include articles such as ‘A’ or ‘the’.

So, I was as write (correct) as St. Luke. I didn’t say THE God, just God. And, to go further (which I like to do and usually do do *cough*) BY capitalizing the entire word, I am entirely within the autographica because:

1. The autographica was written in all capital letters and
2. The translations capitalized the first letter for naming YAHWEH God (I AM!), just to delineate and specify.

So, suffice it say, I don’t consider you YAHWEH, rather a theos, only in capital letters.

Now wasn’t that fun?

What he's saying, in other words, is "Ya, you ain't no saint neither!" (Greek with a Detroit accent)
