Kjvo?

My church is KJVO. We don't make a big deal out of it. We just feel it is the preserved word of God in our language as He wants us to have it. Are other versions the word of God? I dunno. The KJV is what I have used all my life. I will continue.

 

Ooh, you're close in numbers, brother! We'll have to make you an honorary missionary! :saint: You probably know more about the churches in the States nowadays and the translation issues than we missionaries do, being overseas like we are!

Oh, yeah, those questionaires. I got one once that was 7 pages long, including such stuff as would we adopt a child and were our grown children living for Christ. I knew immediately that we had lost that church's support, and we did. Oh and by the way, that man's oldest son later quit Bible college, was estranged from the family, and ended up being shot dead by his friend--in the friend's bedroom, and that is all I will say. Very sad. :tear:

 

How could anyone decide who knew more? He'd have to know all the churches, then know which ones Pipedude knew, and then compute the percentage. Then know which ones JoJ knew, then compute the percentage. And so on. So it's an unprofitable question.

I will confess that my rash of itinerancy occurrred long ago, and the situation may have changed by now. Becoming KJVO is an error tailor-made for our movement due to our history, our filtering system (whereby we exclude those who don't conform well), and the attrition naturally occurring among the more gifted who are more inclined to pride and attracted by the "wider field of service" offered in New Evangelicalism. So the problem has spread, and I can only guess at how far.

Regardless, your estimation of the extent of KJVOism and mine were the same.

 

And that is in my...bubble pipe and I'm...making bubbles with it.

I grew up IFB, am IFB by conviction, and will die IFB, but sometimes some of the movement...well...:BangHead:

 

Hmm. Wouldn't you know it. Maybe a new term is needed: SVP for Single Version Position, or something.

I was raised by a Southern Baptist Deacon, who, if he were alive today, would be IFB due to the liberalization of the Southern Baptist out west.

I am now IFBKJO, as so many here already know. I grew up with the KJB and see absolutely no reason to accept another, as it is as close as you can get to the Textus Receptus. I got locked out of here for standing up for the KJV in one thread. I hope it doesnt' happen again, my Pastor was livid when he found out. He said it was a violation of my rights.

 

No one was ever locked out for standing up for the KJV if they do so according to clearly established rules.

I always stand up for the KJV - it is my version of choice. In our IFB church here the KJV is the version of choice, but we are not KJVO.

 

Umm...

BB moderators aren't the Government. The BB ain't a government entity.

"violation of my rights." That's funny.

I don't get "livid" about much of anything on a message board...I especially don't get "livid" about something that a 3rd party is steamed about on a message board.

Sounds like someone needs a hobby.

Excuse me, Mam, but you have violated my rights.
I've been a Texas or Oklahoma (out west) Southern
Baptist for 55 years, 42 of those years as an adult person.
During that time I've worked HARD and long for
enhansing the conservative side of the SBC.
So please further limit your phrase about
'liberalization of the Southern Baptist' to
the liberalization of specific local churches in Colorado
/or whereever/. Thank you for your kind consideration.

BTW, denouncing the fundamentalist/conservatives
in the SBC goes against the purpose and rules of this
forum. This Forum is supposed to be a safe place for
the fundamentalist NOT for the IFB denomination only.

 

As kindly as I can say it my friend....
This is a PRIVATE board. Do you remember when you signed up? You had to get permission to post here. Not until you were approved did you get the prvilege to post. One ought to treat a privilege with the due diligence a priviliege deserves.
Your only 'rights' here are the opposite of your 'lefts'. (as in right hand and left hand)

BTW, I am a rabid KJVO. My Pastor was trained by that 'ol Junkyard Dog' in Pensacola. And I was trained by my Pastor. But Pastor ain't NOTHING like P.S. Ruckman, neither am I. Thought you might like to know who it was that is addressing your error.

As to your other comments, some SBC ARE liberal. Many are not. Go figure.

 

Deuternomy 10:16 (KJV1611 Edition):
Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart,
and bee no more stiffenecked.

This says it well for me personally.

The second sentence however does not describe the pastor. He is one of those that can get nit-picky about it.

 

IFB- KJVO

Anyone keeping count??

Sorry, that a DAVID CLOUD site, which automatically puts it under a "cloud' of suspicion.
