I have to believe that this so-called translation is intended to be a parody, but yes, it is blasphemous nonetheless.

Apparently, Gavin Newsom has a podcast now and is attempting to rebrand himself as a moderate.

Sadly, it seems that we are forced to vote for the lesser of the two evils these days.

If I absolutely had to pick one of the two? Candidate A.

Article from The New York Times. In what appears to be one step closer to a repeal of the Johnson Amendment, the I.R.S. says that pastors can now freely endorse political candidates from the pulpit without having the 501(c)(3) tax exemption revoked.

My understanding is that He went there to preach His victory over those who were disobedient in the days of Noah.

Salvation must occur in this life through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. After death, there are no second chances or opportunities for conversion, since the eternal destiny of each soul is already determined based on their response to the Gospel during their lifetime.

I don’t know if you’ve ever had a chance to read “So Great Salvation” by Charles Ryrie. It is a rebuttal to John MacArthur’s “The Gospel According to Jesus.” Even though Ryrie comes a little too close to free grace theology at times and makes category errors of biblical terms, he will admit...

@Silverhair @JonC Thank you for contributing to this discussion. It is very much appreciated.

Of course it applied to them in their day; however, any Christian, whether or not they are kings, is still being gathered into the body of Christ in the present and future. I would encourage anybody to stop and ask themselves, "All of what?" Context clues are there to help the reader make that...

Of course not. We can pray for an individual or a general group of people to be granted repentance and faith, but at the end of the day, we have to allow for God's will to be done, not our will. Why isn't God powerful enough to force something to happen that He wants to happen? I did present...

But we do know of kings who became Christians after the canon was completed. Constantine is a prime example. You're right, God doesn't desire the punishment of the wicked. There are also passages that state God does indeed desire the punishment of the wicked. There has to be a balance between...

You might think that you're being consistent, but if you carefully think through your position, you'll realize that you'll have a number of inconsistencies that come up. You can't really pray for every single person if the majority of people on the planet are unknown to us. God desires...

Hello, Brother. No difficulty on my end. I believe that the "all" is referring to all of the same types of men in order to be consistent throughout the whole text. For example, others might see a distinction between the "all" He desires to be saved and the "all" He is the mediator for. If one...

In 1 Timothy 2, does the "all" in bold italics refer to the same or different people groups? If they are different, what hermeneutical methodology, if any, is being utilized to divide them up? I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks...

It would seem that Shawn has been banned. I guess he will be keeping his opinions to himself from now on.

The top layer of cheese on lasagna.

Oh, I didn’t know that. I only looked it up on Bible Gateway and it wasn’t included.

Anybody can nitpick and twist the scripture to make a translation look demonic and dangerous. I can do the same with the KJV. It’s simply ridiculous, and I wouldn’t listen to these folks.

Tyndale’s Bible is around 85-90% the same as the KJV and it did not include the Comma Johanneum.
