That is out of context of the general beliefs of the time, and the Bible does not specifically refute this belief as would have been necessary for the people to understand that it was forbidden. Was abortion acceptable for OT people? For NT people? At what point in history do you think abortion...

I am aware of this immortality thing, and it is weird. But I also have read about Christians that played with this and regret it. I don't remember the guy exactly, but I think a man in Vietnam was walking around wearing a sombrero and a bright blanket. I think he had a pet monkey that rode on...

True, we are not under OT law, BUT God is the same God, and it is informative that he did not add a clause to jail pregnant women until the baby was born. Abortion was practiced in NT times, and never once is it specifically forbidden when things like hair length and the correct way to...

Software that links all these KJV based reference books to the KJV words use less sophisticated search features that make fewer mistakes and take less power to run. They cost less to create and maintain and work on older computers that cost less. We are commanded to memorize scripture. How do...

CDC Virtal Signs - Asthma in the US About 1 in 12 people (about 25 million) have asthma, and the numbers are increasing every year. If 1 in 12 people have asthma, and people with asthma are "at risk", is the virus a problem for at least 1 in 12 people?

Strong's, Matthew Henry, the original Halley's handbook, Smith's Dictionary: almost every reference book used the KJV, didn't they?

There is a healthy fear that is good stewardship. If I am not afraid to stick my hand in fire, so do that, am I being a good steward of my body? I am responsible to try and survive this pandemic with my body in the best health possible. There will be work to be done cleaning up this mess, and I...

This is the kind of stuff that I am hearing over and over. I suffer from migraines, but that has never labeled me as an "at risk" person. If I die of a blood clot, would I be discounted as an "at risk" person that it is "statistically insignificant" because I have migraines? Twenty year olds...

Please forgive me for my question. I am not meaning to be rude or to start a debate. I am curious when I hear reports that are so different from what I have observed. I am keeping track of the types of subcultures where these reports are coming from. Do these doctors and nurses and insurance...

I have studied a few modern languages other than my native English, and the ancient languages of Greek, Hebrew, and Latin. Literal translation is not always the best translation, because each language works differently. I approach BIble word studies differently since I have had the opportunity...

My European and urban friends are reporting this to be a serious problem. I believe them that it is a serious problem. I never used to believe "social media" over the "real" media, but what choice do we have now?

Plimoth Plantation had the Geneva Bible on the bookshelves of the little cottages in their living museum. Also Greek and Latin translations in a couple cottages. And a Psalter: I cannot remember which version. The museum was a reenactment of 1627, and the people had been in some other country...

I think so. That is why I think of it as something my grandpa left behind as a commentary to help me through the tough parts.

I have never claimed that KJV I use is the 1611 KJV. I know that it is not. The NLT keeps changing, even beyond the announced changes. If a Sunday School teacher prepares lessons with it, the lessons will only match the printing that s/he used and s/he will have no idea which other printings...

Says who? People that you trust? I trust a whole new set of people than I did pre-Covid.

The most effective treatment for phariseeism is drastic. I guess I needed it. Thankfully the Lord is long-suffering and most people get to skip the treatment. I can say there is a treatment, that while not a cure, is quite effective, but I do not recommend it. LOL.

That was not the deathrate overseas when the virus really got going. And that does not include the people that have not made full recoveries, there and here. No. Some of these people that I have known personally for years were under 40, slimmer, and in better health than most Americans. A...

Yes, the college textbook problem is so much worse than it was. Professors have taken to not requiring that students purchases the texts, but students without texts score 1-2 grades lower than students with texts. I don't know what to do other than stick with the KJV and the TR right now. I use...

College textbooks do this, too. Publishers release a new edition almost every year that does not match the older editions. Professors cannot keep up with all the updates and teach with the expectations that the new book contains all that was in the old book and the test students on content...
