You wrote: "Then present your argument about what two greek words there are and what they mean."

No. 1) There is no argument nor did I claim there was. There are simply different words. That's all there is. 2) It is pointless to do so given your prior posts. 3) I choose what I post, when I want to post and how I post (with the moderator's indulgence of course!).

"I've read the two scriptures in dispute in english as translated by the King James 1611 version of the bible and they are basically saying that Jesus Christ is the foundation of the Church."

You read the 1611 version? I doubt it. You probably mean the 1769, but whatever. In any case, the very statement you just made shows I would be wasting my time. I already told you, more than once I believe, that the two verses were NOT about the same thing. For you to continue to insist they are, when the very wording of the verses disagree, shows me it would be a waste of my time.

"Jesus is the Church."

No. The Church is the Body of Christ. It is not that Jesus is the Church, but that the Church is the Body of Christ. The very fact that you can't distinguish what needs to be distinguished proves to me that I am making the right choice here. Thanks.

There is no church without Jesus.
