Your inability to learn anything about this is the biggest goof of all. Both Easter and Passover are English words that did not exist when Luke wrote the book of Acts. If your line of reasoning were valid, it would be wrong to make translations of the Bible, for all specialized words would not...

A newspaper death notice indicates Peter Connolly died in 1969, if the notice is the same person. Looking to confirm that and find where he was buried. Also still much interested in whether anyone here knew him, perhaps from his time as a seminary instructor. Thanks!

A book review of The Dark Side of Christian Counseling by E. S. Williams. Book Review: E. S. Williams, The Dark Side of Christian Counseling, in Reformed Baptist Trumpet, Vol. 1, No. 1 (2010): 9-10.

Thanks for explaining further. My comment below was in response to the meaning of blocks access, so it no longer applies as a reply to your comment.

I am not aware that inerrantists insist that the gospel writers place all the events of Jesus' life in chronological order. Who makes that claim?

Right, a contradiction occurs only if one account excludes the possibility of the other account, which this does not.

DeaconPete, welcome to the Baptist Board. I hope you find it a blessing.

Or if one insists he could not have done so twice.

Unless you deny that translations of scripture are scripture, you were. I don't know what you think about that. Even more, we probably should back up to your use of barrier. To me a barrier is something that blocks access. Perhaps that is not what you meant. Please explain what you mean by...

They may be, but are they? Do they assert themselves to be for that reason? It would not be hard to imagine the thread started by robycop to be so, even if he does not mention it, since that is one of the few strings he plays on his banjo; but the other guy, I don't know. He does not say that is...

Well, I guess we could say the book of Isaiah was a barrier to the salvation of the eunuch of Ethiopia, Acts 8:30-31.

As a last resort, she might try Lulu.com. I know some preachers who have used it to their satisfaction. It cuts out the financial issues by being a print on demand service.

I am not going to dislike the KJV, period. You are the one who suggested that it is a barrier to the salvation to some in a way other versions are not, but now you say no more than other things, so I am not sure what you are getting at. Mentioning the gospel itself as a stumblingblock is an...

I do not agree, but if I did think the KJV was an barrier towards salvation, I could see that as a reason to dislike it.

I am looking for biographical information on a preacher named Peter Connolly. Anyone ever heard of him? Connolly came to the U.S. from England to teach in the Bible Baptist Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas. Later he was head of the theology department at Baptist Bible College in Springfield...

Don't recall having ever eaten Ben and Jerry's ice cream. Now I feel all the better for it. May the Bird of Paradise fly up their nose.

Brother, I am curious how you view these posts as being in response to “Onlyism”. The KJV...the Model T Bible Version thread asserts that the KJV is out-of-date. It is not even in “OUR language.” KJV’s Textual Error claims that the KJV editors made a mistake in italicizing “he that acknowledgeth...

You are the one who will have to decide whether you should or should not hate the KJV, and the reasons for your choice. "Hate" is not a word I would generally use even in describing translations that I do not think are good translations. This sounds at least like a mild dislike:

Not sure what you mean. KJVO where? Here on the BB? In comparison to what? KJV-preferred? MV-preferred? I sort of agree, but there is some gray area as well. For example, the NWT of the JWs may contain some of God's word, but I oppose the translation as a bad translation, as well as a...

Of course they are. I did not suggest otherwise. Does not change the fact that various factors causes different people to react differently to the same comments that someone makes (but does help explain it).
