Are There Actual 'Fundamentals" In Theology for Fundamentalists?

My point of posting the differences in the two versions was to simply point out the differences in the two versions. You can make your own conclusions from the comparisons.

If the texts are different, then they can't both be right. I am not telling anyone which one to choose, I am just saying that claiming that they are both the perfect Word of God is false. If they were both perfect then they would both have the exact same meaning for every verse, but they don't.

I will say that I believe that most people stand behind the NIV simply because it is easier for them to read, not because they think it is The Word of God. I am not saying that the NIV isn't the Word of God, I am simply saying that people prefer it because it is easier, and they really don't care about scriptural accuracy.

As far as I am concerned I don't care how you get the complete and accurate message of the Bible. You can get it from the Children's Illustrated Bible for all I care. I chose the one that I feel gives me the complete and accurate Word. Everyone else has to make that choice too.

BTW, I use several new versions and several commentaries when i am studying the KJV to help me expand my knowledge and better understand the KJV. But when there is a difference in meaning I stick with the KJV. My personal choice.

I guess what I saying is that for me, the new versions do support the study of the KJV, but they don't replace it.

Luke, are you always this aggressive and combative? Do you get into alot of physical confrontations because of the way you attack people and their beliefs? Do you need some medication to calm you down? What does the word "dogmatic" mean to you?

I can see that I am going to have alot of fun toying with your nasty attitude.

How do you know the NIV is right and the KJV is wrong? Prove it.

John

I don't. I prefer the KJV over the NIV. But I did not make the claim that one of these versions is "abominable". Since you did, I pointed out that you ought to support such a claim. You did not.

Yes, and KJVO does undermine this tenet. It denies that the original writings are the supreme and final authority in faith and life. They replace the originals, or at least suppliment them, with the KJV.

So, oddly enough, some of the ones who tout the "fundamentalist" title the loudest actually undermine this particular idea of fundamentalism.

Once again you misrepresent KJVO (and I'll once again remind you that I am KJVP). The vast majority of KJVO claim that KJV is God's Word for English speakers. They do not claim that it is superior to the originals. You take a very fringe group and attempt to apply it to the whole. Maybe you should do some of that research you are always talking about instead of relating your very limited personal experience?

And????

Are you not going to support this claim?

It is pointless if you do not.

Well, the KJV is the Word of God; Calvinism is a doctrine that twists the Word of God into many heretical teachings. Just look at John 3:16. The KJV says:

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."


Calvinism twists this into a lie stating that God didn't really love the world and that whosoever really cannot come to him. In my book that is calling God a liar, which is heresy.

There are several other like passages, but if you fail to believe God here, it really doesn't matter how you feel about the other passages.

Thank you Robert Snow for not remaining silent and for speaking out against the heresy that is Calvinism. Calvinism is a dark, twisted, evil theology straight from the pits of Hell. It is the #1 tool of Satan against Christianity today.

This thread is spiraling down hill remarkably fast.

Luke and matt, you both are saying crazy things.

FROM MATT WADE: Calvinism is a dark, twisted, evil theology straight from the pits of Hell. It is the #1 tool of Satan against Christianity today.

-Seriously? Calvinism is doing more harm than the multitudes in mainline denominations who are rejecting or re-interpreting the very divinity of Jesus and the authority of God over our lives at all? More damage than the complete abandoning of commitment to marriage by our culture and even by those in conservative evangelical churches? I can tell you my church is filled with people who's lives have been damaged by divorce and adultery...and it is also filled with the empty places where those who have committed adultery and left their spouses used to sit, some of them for 20-30 YEARS before their sudden and sinful departure. (I can't think of anyone who would give testimony that calvinism has shipwrecked their faith or life, as they might about the breakup of marraiges).

Calvinism is not Heresy, it came about by people trying to make sense of some very difficult passages of scripture which could easily be interpreted to say God chooses people for salvation. People who try to honestly wrestle with these verses are not heretics.

FROM LUKE: KJVO does undermine this tenet. It denies that the original writings are the supreme and final authority in faith and life. They replace the originals, or at least suppliment them, with the KJV.

-Matt is correct that most KJVO simply believe that the KJV is the best english translation, some because of the TR; and a few who may even think it is itself inerrant. They may be mistaken, but they are not heretics. It is not heresy to think God may have preserved his word and guided the translators who translated it.

I have done the research and you are wrong.

Most KJVO believe the words of the KJV are infallible- without error.

How, Matt, is this possible?

BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE GOD INSPIRED IT.

That brings into question the fundamentalist view on inspiration- plain and simple.

And again you just make claims with no support.

You might as well say the flying spaghetti monster is perched on your rooftop.

Making a claim without support is a pointless waste of your time.

These things you say are not true just because you state them, Robert.

I know that GOD speaks to you and you don't need any man to teach you anything- but even so, intelligent people will always require more of you than unsupported claims.

See, this is a DEBATE site. We make A R G U M E N T S on a debate site.

You know what arguments are, don't you?

Look it up. It would be very helpful for you.

You're wrong, 12 strings. And what do you BASE this claim on? I do not think you base it on anything. It is just conjecture and it is wrong.

There have been NUMEROUS books written on this subject. Have you looked at a single one?

Read James Whites' book- The King James Only Controversy.

These people believe the KJV is INFALLIBLE.

You saying otherwise is the crazy thing, 12 strings.

And yet another claim without support.

Is that what you do all day? Make statements for which you have absolutely no support whatsoever and then expect that they are worth something JUST BECAUSE YOU SAY THEM???????

Since No Mod Has Seen Fit To ...

Matthew 13:51 KJV "Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto Him, Yea, Lord." NIV "'Have you understood all these things?' Jesus asked. 'Yes,' they replied." NIV leaves out "Lord," again, leaving out His Lordship.

Is Jesus Lord? Leaving out Lordship! Ha!

Matthew 16:20 KJV "Then charged He his disciples that they should tell no man that He was Jesus the Christ." NIV "Then he warned his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Christ." NIV leaves out "Jesus,"

The shorter reading has the best manuscript support.


Matthew 25:13 KJV "Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh." NIV "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour." NIV leaves out "wherein the Son of man cometh."
No,the TR added it in. It's a scribal expansion borrowed from 24:44 as per Comfort.

Mark 1:14 KJV "Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God." NIV "After John was put in prison, Jesus went into Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God." NIV says "the good news" and leaves out "the gospel of the kingdom of God."
The TR reading is an expansion. The NIV rendering has much better manuscript support.


Mark 9:24 KJV "And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief." NIV "Immediately the boy's father exclaimed, 'I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!'" NIV leaves out the reference to Jesus as "Lord."
The NIV rendering is superior because it is based on much better testimony.


Luke 4:8 KJV "And Jesus said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord they God, and him only shalt thou serve." NIV "Jesus answered, 'It is written: 'Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.'" NIV leaves out "Get thee behind me Satan."
"The WH NU reading has early and diverse testimony." (Comfort p.178) No other major translation aside from KJV and NKJV have the extra words.

Luke 4:41 KJV "And devils also came out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art Christ the Son of God ..." NIV "Moreover, demons came out of many people, shouting, 'You are the Son of God! ...'" NIV leaves out the reference to Jesus by the devils that He was "Christ."
Again,the WH NU reading (which the NIV follows here) has better manuscript support.The "scribes could not resist adding 'the Christ.' The expansion became part of TR and KJV tradition." (p.180)

Luke 7:31 KJV "And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?" NIV "To what, then, can I compare the people of this generation? What are they like?" NIV leaves out "And the Lord said."
You are confused. The TR added it in without any Greek manuscript support.

Luke 11:2 KJV "And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth." NIV "He said to them, "When you pray, say: "'Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come."
Again,scribal expansions seeking to harmonize portions of the so-called Lord's prayer in Matthew 6.

Luke 11:4 KJV "And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil." NIV "Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation. '"
See above.

Luke 23:42 KJV "And he (the thief) said unto Jesus ‘Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.’" NIV "Then he said, 'Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.'" NIV leaves out "Lord," doing away with His Deity.
What a sinful thing for you to say. How can he address Jesus and tell of His kingly power and yet deny His Lordship?!
The NIV (based on superior documentary attestation) is best here. The TR based reading is inferior.

John 10:30 KJV "I and my Father are one." NIV "I and the Father are one." Again, Satan is trying to do away with the Heavenly Father, and set himself on the throne. These are some more of the verses doing away with the Personal "My" or "Our" Father for an impersonal one, as well as changing "Our Lord" and "My Lord" to "the Lord" in referring to Jesus.
Your charge is silly. Actually most of this screed (of yours?) is silly.

Galatians 1:3 KJV "Grace be to you, and peace, from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ," NIV "Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,"
What were you saying earlier about the NIV leaving out the personal pronoun regarding the Father? The NIV has our,the KJV has just the.

IMHO, if I can't believe ALL of it then I can't believe any of it.

Now, as far as the "inspired" part of the argument. Yes, I believe the translators of any language (Greek to English, Hebrew to Russian, ect) must be inspried by God to correctly translate it.

If a man sat out to translate a Bible for the Chinese, he would have to have the inspiration and guidance of the HS to correctly convey the messege of the Word.

Their are many that see Bible translating as merely an academic endeaver, needing only the education of a linguist. I submit to you that a person trying to rightly divide the Word of God from the original texts cannot do so correctly with simple human intelligence.

I am not saying that God has not already inspired a correct modern translation, I am saying though that I am not convinced of it at this time.

Has anyone read "The Message"? It is a new version straight from the pits of Hell. Anyone who says that ALL modern versions are the Word of God needs to read this one.

Rippon, please don't make this personal by calling me silly. Why do you always resort to name-calling?

I am in no way saying that you should not use the NIV, I am merely giving examples of why I prefer the KJV.

Take the chip off of your shoulder, I am not your enemy. There is only one person on here that I consider an enemy, and that is because he is tearing down the bonds between Christians and causing strife among the bretheren. Please don't be like him.

It was you on another thread who said that every word in the Bible was important. :smilewinkgrin:
Quote:
Matthew 16:20 KJV "Then charged He his disciples that they should tell no man that He was Jesus the Christ." NIV "Then he warned his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Christ." NIV leaves out "Jesus,"

The shorter reading has the best manuscript support.
The longer reading is in the vast majority of extant manuscripts including FWIW two dating back to the 5th Century.

Quote:
Matthew 25:13 KJV "Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh." NIV "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour." NIV leaves out "wherein the Son of man cometh."

No,the TR added it in. It's a scribal expansion borrowed from 24:44 as per Comfort.
Prove it! Once again, it is in the vast majority of the extant mss. It is far morelikely that a scribe accidently missed it out.
Quote:
Mark 1:14 KJV "Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God." NIV "After John was put in prison, Jesus went into Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God." NIV says "the good news" and leaves out "the gospel of the kingdom of God."

Same as above. It's far more likely that a scribe accidently omitted it.

Quote:
Mark 9:24 KJV "And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief." NIV "Immediately the boy's father exclaimed, 'I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!'" NIV leaves out the reference to Jesus as "Lord."

The NIV rendering is superior because it is based on much better testimony.
More important is the fact that the NIV leaves out 'with tears.' Tears are very precious to the Lord Jesus (2Kings 20:5; Psalm 6:8; Isaiah 25:8; Luke 7:13; Rev 7:17etc.). When I come to write my 1,000 page thesis :laugh: on tears in the Bible, I shall certainly be including this verse. 'With tears' has excellent manuscript support.

Quote:
Luke 4:8 KJV "And Jesus said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord they God, and him only shalt thou serve." NIV "Jesus answered, 'It is written: 'Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.'" NIV leaves out "Get thee behind me Satan."

"The WH NU reading has early and diverse testimony." (Comfort p.178) No other major translation aside from KJV and NKJV have the extra words.
Since there is no doubt that the Lord Jesus did use those words, or something very similar (Matt 4:10), and they are in the huge majority of extant mss, it seems perverse to leave them out.

Quote:
Luke 4:41 KJV "And devils also came out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art Christ the Son of God ..." NIV "Moreover, demons came out of many people, shouting, 'You are the Son of God! ...'" NIV leaves out the reference to Jesus by the devils that He was "Christ."

Again,the WH NU reading (which the NIV follows here) has better manuscript support.The "scribes could not resist adding 'the Christ.' The expansion became part of TR and KJV tradition." (p.180)
Once again, an inattentive scribe missed out the important words. Fortunately they are preserved in the vast majority of extant mss.
Quote:
Luke 7:31 KJV "And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?" NIV "To what, then, can I compare the people of this generation? What are they like?" NIV leaves out "And the Lord said."

You are confused. The TR added it in without any Greek manuscript support.
Here undoubtedly the words should be in italics to show that they are not part of the original. However, there is no question that the Lord did not say the words, so there is no confusion.

Quote:
Luke 11:2 KJV "And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth." NIV "He said to them, "When you pray, say: "'Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come."

Again,scribal expansions seeking to harmonize portions of the so-called Lord's prayer in Matthew 6.
The C.T. mutilates the Lord's Prayer most barbarously. Praise God that the expanded form is found in the large majority of the MSS.

Quote:
Luke 11:4 KJV "And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil." NIV "Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation. '"

See above.
See above.

What a sinful thing for you to say. How can he address Jesus and tell of His kingly power and yet deny His Lordship?!
The NIV (based on superior documentary attestation) is best here. The TR based reading is inferior.
If the thief had actually used our Lord's name without any title, he would have been the only person in the whole NT to do so. In fact, of course, he acknowledged Him as Lord (cf. Rom 10:9) as the huge weight of extant mss so eloquently testifies.

I think there is a important point here. Surely we should assume that the most exalted, God-honouring text is the correct one? Why should we suppose that the Holy Spirit, whose great task it is to bring glory to the Lord Jesus (John 16:14) would fail partially in His task?

I used to hold that opinion and it was anything but humble. I used to preach that very thing with clinched fist. But if I'd been TRULY humble I would have done the appropriate study required to understand the truth on that matter BEFORE I went around preaching it.



Now, as far as the "inspired" part of the argument. Yes, I believe the translators of any language (Greek to English, Hebrew to Russian, ect) must be inspried by God to correctly translate it.

NOBODY and I mean NOBODY in the field of reputable scholars in the HISTORY of the church before a hundred years ago EVER purported that translations are inspired.

That ought to be enough for you right there- at least enough for you to be willing to consider that you may be bad wrong on this issue.

If a man sat out to translate a Bible for the Chinese, he would have to have the inspiration and guidance of the HS to correctly convey the messege of the Word.

What do you BASE this on. Where are you pulling this statement out of??

Then stop calling yourself KJVP (if that is indeed what you call yourself). You are KJVO. You are only convinced that the KJV is the Word of God in English.

I am telling you that that position is heresy or pretty darn close.

You are a true gentleman, and a joy to converse with.

BTW, i don't call myself anything but a Christian. You are the one that labels me an IFBer, Arminian, KJVO, Ignorant, and full of darkness (which to me means evil).

What I am is a sinner that is saved by Grace.

First of all, my goal is not always gentility. There are times when addressing some situations with gentleness is sin. Being a gentleman when God expects you to be otherwise is not good.

Secondly, you need to provide ACTUAL quotes rather than misrepresent me like you do here.

I have tried to help you on this before.

Listen. It is a SIN for you to misrepresent people. It is LITERALLY the breaking of one of God's TEN COMMANDMENTS. It is bearing false witness against your neighbor.

You have taken the things that I did say (like: you are ignorant ON THIS SUBJECT, etc..) and twisted them to make me look a certain way.

If you did that on purpose- it is evil.

No matter how you twist it, you still called me ignorant.....and you called me all of the other things too
