I want to thank everyone for their imput and add I also am PB... In fact as far as I know 3rd generation PB. That's all I've ever known. Back to the post in question... Found this comment interesting.

Uzzah erred in thinking it didn't matter who transported the ark.
Uzzah erred in thinking it didn't matter how the ark was transported.
Uzzah erred in thinking he knew all about the ark because it was in his fathers house for so long (2 Samuel 6:3)
Uzzah erred in thinking that God couldn't take care of the ark himself.
Uzzah erred in thinking that the ground of Chidon's threshing floor was less holy than his own hand.

I agree but where did the error or sin start? Did it not start with the Iraelites using the ark going into battle with God not present? To me that was the greatest error that caused every other sin that proceeded that. Its not that God will save us and give us the victory but that our standard the ark of the covenant will?... Comments... Brother Glen

Jerome [falsehood snipped] the Primitive Baptists and [falsehood snipped] from time to time. I've no doubt something along the lines of a quote from 'Hassell's History' is forthcoming. I've never heard the passage used in the manner he says either, and I'm PB.

Huh? I wasn't even thinking of Primitives.

I've seen it from folks like C. Matthew McMahon (ex-Baptist who ministered at the now defunct Topsfield (Mass.) Reformed Baptist Church started by Mark Dever, and now involved in some Presbyterian microdenomination).

I've never heard the passage used in the manner he says either, and I'm PB.

Here's over a thousand Google results for Uzzah + "regulative principle":
