"Two Corinthians" is correct |
doyle |
Doesn't the Roman numeral "II" signify "two," not "second?

Don't miss the point here. The point is that you have a guy who is attempting to fit in or relate to an audience by quoting a scripture when the guy can't even quote his favorite verse when asked. So, when he says 2 Corinthians, he is not attempting to have a teaching moment like my father-in-law would have done. |

I dunno, but do Presbyterians every say "2 Corinthians." Maybe they do if they have close ties to Scotland. It's possible he heard that in Sunday school instead of 'second Corinthians.' I can't remember ever going to an English-speaking Presbyterian church. _________________ Link |

Outside the US, the usage of "Two Corinthians" is very normal. I doubt that "the Donald" is familiar with that nomenclature but I can tell you from firsthand experience that no one would bat an eyelash if you used the phrase in the UK. |

It's the kind of thing he would have done to get attention. He was a master at playing word games and daring you to challenge him. I made the mistake of playing Scrabble with him once. He preached at Doraville COG and dedicated my daughter, which wold have been January 1984. I still remember the title of the sermon..."Declaring Your Ebenezer." 😀 |

And they're trying to ban him there. |
