    But they cannot be separated one from the other as you suggest.

    i know the differences you are stating, but when it comes to the word of God and Jesus they are never separate.

    Oh, so when you witness, I suppose you do witness, you don't want the touch of God on you and he use your words to lead others to Him?

    Hmmm, what do you do with the passage that tells us how they overcame the wicked one with the word of their testimony and the blood of the Lamb?

    This has NOTHING to do with what little ego I do have.:smilewinkgrin:

    Genesis 1;1 is a good place for you to start, or do you think God didn't have anything to do with that verse either?

    Nice UNFOUNDED assumption.

    You and others most certainly have and still do.

    The Lord has used the KJV since He began to inspire men to pen down His word. How do I know this? Because the KJV IS the word of God and God cannot lie nor has he ever changed.

    Now, did Jesus in his lifetime as a man actually carry a Bible? NO! He is The Bible!:godisgood:

    Some questions are not worth answering while some people's comments are nothing but slanted rhetoric and condescension.

    What is sad is when some one thinks themselves to be something and they do just what you have as a means of attacking their person by comparison of people you hate.

    Only a really big dummy would deny that God doesn't use the Gospel in many different forms.

    Maybe you're arguing from another thread or something or maybe with some one in your past.

    Every word i speak is not the word of God, but every word i speak about the Gospel is used of God.

    beg to differ?:godisgood:

    My brother,
    when I witness, I use God's Word. I would never claim that my words are inspired.

    And your answers have everything to do with your ego.

    He is too liberal for most. He fed his disciples by picking grain on the sabbath.

    Not at all, I just know when I use my Bible people are also moved with the testimony I give of my conversion. God did that so it must be His ego!

    Oh, btw, are you saying that when you, I guess you do, give your testimony that God is somehow separate from even that?????????

    Not questioning your salvation, but specifically when you witness is God there or just still somewhere up in the heavens apart from His word?

    MexDeaf had it right, "Whatever"

    Solomon put it even better, Proverbs 26:4 - Do not answer a fool according to his folly, or you will also be like him.

    No, God has it right and you just disobeyed Him and called me a "fool" which breaks BB rules.

    The conspiracy behind the OP was to entrap "KJVO"'s into an underhanded effort.

    I inserted the Lord into the mix and yall cry out against it. Very telling I say!

    Do you always fashion the word of God from a plowshare and into a ball and chain against your brother?

    My great-grandfather Prescott was just a "dumb ol' country preacher" who didn't own anything but a KJV as far as the Bible goes and he died around 1914.

    Maybe he doesn't rate anywhere on your totempole of prominent preachers, but from what I learned from his life is he was one of the best!

    I guess he jist dont count!:godisgood:

    1. Rippon asked an honest question.

    2. You responded with "Jesus".

    3. I said "Jesus did not use the KJV". A verifiable fact.

    4. Then you went on rampage calling me a "lunatic" and a "heretic" (choosing your language carefully, of course) and putting words in my mouth, saying things that I did not say.

    5. So, you get all bent out of shape when someone quotes a Scripture that cuts to the quick?

    It didn't cut me due to it is not foundable. I know how big a fool I am without anyone trying to say I'm anything more or less.

    I didn't call you anything and my words WERE chosen carefully.

    Every discussion in this forum ends up attacking the KJV and anyone you call "KJVO".

    Jesus used what would eventually become the KJV thus he used the KJV, or would you tell us Jesus used something the KJV isn't concerning it to be the word of God?

    Choose your words carefully, God is recording all of this.

    Jesus still uses the KJV, or are you, I said, ARE YOU! saying the KJV isnt the word of God?

    Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses, and Christian Science all used the KJV also.

    The KJV is that; a version of scripture, subject to errors, misprints and changes in meanings. Only the original manuscripts are recognized as the veritable Word of God. That is all most of us are saying, and I have used nothing in the pulpit save my 1945 KJV.

    Cheers,

    Jim

    I've been a strict observer in this thread up until now. Your statement is patently false. I just went through this entire thread again. There isn't a single post that attacks the KJV. There are, however, numerous posts that attack KJVOism.
    I will assume you're referring to the presumption that Jesus used Masoritic-type texts in his scriptural references (which is debatable, given that the Masoretes conducted their scribing between the 7th and 11th centuries). By your reckoning, Jesus used what would eventually become the Bishop's, Geneva, Tyndale, KJV, NKJV, ASV, Coverdale, Darby, Douay Rhiems, Quaker, RSV, ESV, Webster's, WYclif, and CEV Bibles.
    There's no scriptural support for the concept that Jesus uses a particular translation.
