How does one become a KJV only?

Thank you for deciding to close this thread...I would like to clarify the above post that indicates that a "vulgarism" was edited. I was unaware that the particular figure of speech used (which simply means to "give in to someone without argument") had vulgar roots. I am very sorry for the use of the phrase and will delete it from my vocabulary. I wish to be no offense to the brethren on this board. Thank you.

Daniel, the post was edited due to its being a reference to an act of sodomy, not because it means "give in to someone without argument."

Hi Libby:

I respect you greatly for following your husband's direction in the home; very refreshing indeed! And I agree that the Message is a very poor choice for study/preaching.

What part of England are you in?

Dr. Cassidy--I NEVER had any such act in mind when I used the phrase. My meaning stands as I expressed it. The meaning you're referring to was new information to me as of yesterday. I honestly did NOT know the meaning as you described it; hence, the apology. I have also made a conscious decision to delete that phrase from my vocabulary as I previously stated. No offense was meant, but I understand what happened. I wish to give no offense. I have also gone to the extent of asking about other common phrases and figures of speech that I use in conversation with a friend who is well-learned in English vulgarisms and colloquialisms. I sincerely wish to have speech that is void of offense toward God and man. Thank you for the rebuke, but I can assure you that I had no foreknowledge of what my edited phrase meant in the sense that it was perceived by the moderators/administrators.
