    I have not been on this board in a long time but I found out some lad on here disliked my poem about the KJV and NIv and has called me a heretic and threatened me with Hell. In all my debates over the years I do believe this the first time I have ever been called a heretic. In this age of apostasy, I might think about accepting that as a badge of honor rather than an insult as it was intended.

    Anyway, he has spurred me on to finish a project that I have been working on concerning this issue. I just posted "Why The Good Old KJV Is Still The Book For Thee" on Sermoncentral. It usually takes a day or two for it to show up. I have already sent it to my mailing list and a couple of newsgroups and so far have only recieved but one response and that was favorable. My guess is that the length of the article will take ahile for some to respond. I made sure that my "friend" got a copy as a reward for his inspiration.

    Anyway, if you would like a personal copy to cheer or jeer please send the request directly to mavmin@earthlink.net as I have basically retired from this board. I only came here since my "admirer" mentioned that he challenged me three times and I never responded. I have to read something before I can respond. And since he made his criticism here it is only right that I respond here lest someone think it was his challenge that chased me away. I don't remember which forum the original hoopla was on so I will post here and on another one so that all may see that I am alive and well after his chastisement and certainly do not base my salvation upon his assessment of me or the issue.

    Shalom!

    PS,

    I declined his offer to pray for my "putrid soul" as I have no faith that such a prayer will be heard.
     
  3. Hey Mav., I did not see your post but I wish I had. If it was pro-KJB then I think I would have liked it.

    I know what you mean!!! It really would be easier to just not post anything and let the liberals say everything.

    But,

    Galatians 6:9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

    CD, the post in contention was actually censored by the board but not before this lad saw it and hence his agitation.

    Anyone who equates the NIV with liberalism wouldn't know a liberal if it bit him.

    Good for you, Su!
    Maverick, you've got the right idea. Take it as a complement! I've been called "prude", "Old lady", "Narrow minded", "Preacher-girl", and I just smile. {For some reason, them liberals give the best complements! :D } Su, I will glady join you and take the same reputation as you have. YOur standards are something to be admired. Not many people are willing to go thorugh the "firey trials."
    I'd like a copy of the newest thing you posted above about, Maverick. Do I just e-mail you?

    Abby, it is in the mail. CD doesn't have an e-mail showing or he would have it by now as well.

    God bless you, Sister! Always good to hear from a Southron!

    Ransomed,old boy, if a man uses the NIV he doesn't know what a Fundamentalist or a true Conservative is so that must mean he is a Liberal. ;)

    Murph, it was an appropriate retort to Ransom's comment.

    I hate it when my posts get mangled.

    I thought they were not going to post it, but sermoncentral much just be backlogged as my KJV treatise is now posted.
