    Power in Prose Style

    When reading the King James Bible, we are moved by its content, but we are moved also by the power of its language, in sound and in brevity, being moved also by its power in clarity, though the Bible is yet to be fully understood. Can other writings, through composition, also have this quality...

    The main plotline of the whole Bible

    God’s promise to Abraham (formerly Abram) is the reversal of Adam’s curse, and sets up the narrative drive for the whole Biblical storyline. Genesis 12:1-3 Now the Lord said to Abram, “Go forth from your country, And from your relatives And from your father’s house, To the land which I will...

    Is the King James Bible the Word of God?

    Some hold that the KJV is inspired, adhering to the doctrine of double inspiration, declaring the KJV the Word of God, whereas others hold this, that the preserved Word of God is found in one of the Greek manuscripts, or a collection of Greek manuscripts, declaring that no translation into...

    Church Constitution/Bylaws?

    I am in my 3rd Pastorate. Been at this church for 5 years. My own mistake - I "assumed" the church had a constitution and bylaws, as it was organized in 1880. We are now (apparently again) harvesting the "fruit" of the lack of such documents. I only found out officially that there was no...

    What is the Bible's internal proof that it is the Word of God?

    Is it possible that if an early civilization had wanted, they could have followed a sort of writing process to formulate a unified narrative for the whole Bible, including all its doctrines, prophecies, wisdom, exhortations, etc, and then reorganized it into anthology of books called the Bible...

    Babylonian "whine" for more "wine", is the "wine" of God alcoholic?

    Babylonian "whine" for more "wine", is the "wine" of God alcoholic? Is God's "wine" inTOXICating? What does the Bible say? Proverbs 20:1 KJB - Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise. Proverbs 31:3 KJB - Give not thy strength unto women, nor...

    Do I have to quote the Bible when sharing the gospel?

    Can one be saved when believing the gospel even if they don't hear a Bible verse? I wrote a piece which I wish I could call a homily, sharing the gospel with certain particulars, and not quoting the Bible once. If those who read it do not hear a Bible verse, will they remain being lost?

    The reason I don't read the Bible that much.

    I know I've started a lot of threads so far. Sorry. Lately, I haven't been reading the Bible because I've been finding it difficult to concentrate and to understand many passages. Even though the KJV is my favorite translation, and even though I understand early modern English, the phrasing is...

    Book recommendation

    Years ago in 2009 I had several revelations concerning the bible. I recently came across Kieth Giles' book Jesus Unbound: Liberating the Word of God from the Bible. https://www.amazon.com/Jesus-Unbound-Liberating-Word-Bible/dp/1938480325 It echoed much of what I was thinking in 2009, (not that I...

    Is Trinity Theological Seminary Changing for the better?

    I've noticed a lot of threads on here that seem to believe that Trinity College of the Bible and Theological Seminary is of a lowly caliber and a degree mill. I would have to urgently disagree as someone who attended Calvary Chapel Bible College and transferred into trinity. I finished my BA and...
