Parmenides, Heraclitus, and Zeno

188.912 - 236.581 R.C. Sproul

We can hardly make a sentence in the English language without using some form of the verb to be, am, are, was, were, and so on. And every time we make simple sentences, I am going to the store, we were in Orlando yesterday, we are falling back on some kind of idea of being. It's inescapable. And yet when we begin to probe the idea of being itself, it's somewhat elusive and mysterious to us.
