    Is it okay to use the NKJV?

    Your preaching does not include a" biblical" argument but an intellectual one. You rarely have first hand quotes from any Bibles but constantly quote men who you think are expert and smarter than you. Even as you have titled yourself after the Geneva Bible I can't remember you ever quoting it...

    Is it okay to use the NKJV?

    I am for the missionaries translating the Bible into other languages and made available to the churches who speak those languages, but that is not what you are defending. If you cannot be confident you have gotten your own language right after all the failed attempts, you should just give up...

    Is it okay to use the NKJV?

    If you know this, why not correct one or the other or both. I have never understood that great minds say they know there are problems and they know where they are and yet never fix them. The first recorded lie came from a translator and the hearers were held accountable for believing it. I am...

    Unapologetic Dispensational Truths - Is the KJV Required For Us to Believe It.

    It is not how it is worded, it is the words themselves. Have you noticed? No one believes the words any more. The NT was written in Greek but the typology is from the Hebrew culture because Jesus said, "salvation is of the Jews." Well, they have failed miserably. Do you know of two people on...

    I think I read in one of your posts that you attended Tennessee Temple. One of my favorite people I have ever had the privilege of meeting was a professor there at one time. His name was John McCormick. When I knew him he was an evangelist. Just wondering if your paths ever crossed.

    Priesthood of all believers

    I am just curious so please do not be upset, but since when is the church of Jesus Christ a nation? And why are these people addressed separate and apart from gentiles. 1 Peter 2:12 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may...

    Priesthood of all believers

    @atpollard Hi atpollard, for the sake of clarity please repost #1 and underline where we are told the church are all priests. I remind you that Peter wrote to the "strangers" scattered through Asia Minor. He was not writing church doctrine that applied to every one in the church. The apostle...

    Do You Know the Baptist Distinctives?

    I will check it out after church tonight. If it works out I might quiz my pastor about it.

    Is that what you have learned from your favorite translation? Answer that question and I might be better equipped to answer yours.

    Do You Know the Baptist Distinctives?

    I heard the joke, What would you be if not a Baptist? The answer came: I would be ashamed. I say, Me too. But I began attending the Baptist church while still in my mother's womb, and chose to be a Baptist after my conversion. I have tried to be a careful student of the word since I was 25...

    Unapologetic Dispensational Truths - Is the KJV Required For Us to Believe It.

    He is returning with the church and the heavenly host to inaugurate his kingdom reign over the earth while purging out all remaining unbelievers. Psa 115:15 Ye are blessed of the Lord which made heaven and earth. 16 The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord's: but the earth hath he given to...

    Most, maybe even you, miss the reason for his return. The new Bibles do nothing but worsen the problem.

    Unapologetic Dispensational Truths - Is the KJV Required For Us to Believe It.

    I call adjustments within dispensations by the term - "transitions). Gen 15 where Jesus begins to be identified by the title "the word of the LORD" and by the name of Adonay Jehovah (Lord GOD) as opposed previously as Jehovah Elohym (LORD God). He is prominent under this title in all the...

    Unapologetic Dispensational Truths - Is the KJV Required For Us to Believe It.

    Here is my definitions of dispensational: 1) Exemption from a rule or usual requirement. - i.e. Dietary laws in Acts 10. 2) A system of order, government, or organization of a nation, community, etc., especially as existing at a particular time. - i.e. the Mosaic system over Israel 3 In...

    Tithing

    My take: Paul, the apostle charged with instructing the church as to what they should do to please God, (Ro 15:18 For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed) did not use the word tithe in all his 13...

    Tithing

    ( The question concerning the Christians relationship to the law of Moses was answered at the Jerusalem counsel in Acts 15. It remains our instruction today.

    Why Did The Lord Choose from among his disciples 12 Men as Apostles and 70 Men as Elders During His Public Ministry

    Some additional thoughts on thirteen (13) Gen 13:13 - first mention of sinners in the KJV Genesis 13:13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the Lord exceedingly. Saul, the King of Israel, lost his kingly dynasty in 1 Sam 13:13 13 And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done...

    Why Did The Lord Choose from among his disciples 12 Men as Apostles and 70 Men as Elders During His Public Ministry

    @Ben1445 Thanks Ben, I can see that you have it figured out. I will say this one thing that always offends me when you guys call the number structure in God's own book "numerology." But it is not something I desire to discuss with you.

    Why Did The Lord Choose from among his disciples 12 Men as Apostles and 70 Men as Elders During His Public Ministry

    Using logic, it is strange that God would work so hard to send an indwelling teacher of his New Covenant only to resort to an OT expedient. I think the duty assigned to the disciples for those ten days was to wait until he got there and then he would teach them what to do. Barnabas was not...
