At this stage I think it may be permissible for me to access this
interesting site.  Have again run across Paul Toseland's comment on
DIAKONIA of 270903 where he presents views of mine on the meanings this
term and its cognates.

It is pleasing to see an observer recognise how deeply my readings of so
long ago (1970s) reach into 2003 - or 04 as the case may be. The substance
of the views have been in BDAG since 2000, but what weight the views carry
in interpretation of NT or in theology of ministry is yet to be seen.

For those interested in my not-politically-correct views,  I cannot field
all comments or enquiries, but have long been committed to further
discussion in whatever medium is likely to be effective.
