Redundant. I've yet to meet an indefinite fundamentalist.

 

Here's another one!
(and hi Granny!! :wavey: )

 

I are one - but have severely cut back my board posting.

 

Settled on the word of God and still, and always will be, premillenial/ God is just and not a tyrant.

 

You may have severely cut back -- but you still average almost 12 posts per day . I'm not at even half that pace .

 

Thats over a few years. I once had an average of almost 30 posts a day.

 

Amen, Brother Salamander -- Preach it! :thumbs:

God is a God of Plenty (Jehova Giria).
I've got two Holy Bibles fresh for the 21st
Century (2001-2100) that I study
(on-line and off):

TNIV = Today's New International Version, (Zondervan, 2006)
HCSB = Christian Standard Bible (Holman, 2003)

That is my new double-barreled cannon/canon
My old double-edged sword contains:

* KJV1611 Edition (Paper has original translation
footnotes, electronic does not)

* Geneva Bible, 1560 Edition (paper)
Geneva Bible, 1599 Edition (electronic)

Get out of my way Satan, I'm authorized to blow
you clean away -- \o/ PRAISE JESUS \o/

 

Be ye separated from the world and unto God by His working in your heart in His process of sanctification and not a voluntary humility!!!

True Fundamentalism.

 

Wife made you cut back?
:wavey:

 

I am an independent Baptist fundamentalist.

 

Reading some of the posts, I am reminded by the Lord of 1 John 2:15-17 which says.....

Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

 

Welcome to BB! :thumbs:

Not to change the subject but I just retired from FedEx. Like my avatar? Guess what my job was.

I was in the Spear testing business .

I was a spear catcher :saint:

 

Fundamentalism

The definition has changed over the years. There is a so called fundamentalism that is progressive in music. They have done away with hymn books and use modern terms like "worship". The Song leader is gone and now we have worship teams. Bands have replaced the choir on stage. I noticed on the list there is no reference to God's Word.

Also a true fundamentalist is a militant separation from the World and worldliness. Aggressive Soulwinning (door knocking), and The preservation of Gods word in The Authorized King James Bible..

Could you point when these became requirements to be a fundamentalist please? I always assumed fundamentalism was based on clear Bible doctrinal issues.

Would the use of hymnals rather than Powerpoint be a requirement to be a fundamentalist?

Who has become the setter of standards for fundamentalists?

 

" Who has become the setter of standards for fundamentalists?"

Well, from your post if up for election you wouldn't be considered! :smilewinkgrin:

I was a fundamentalist long before all that tripe was popular so maybe I should be the candidate of choice. I will dictate soon :type: what a true fundamentalist is and will be standing by for the :tonofbricks:

Personally the term fundamentalist is kind of like the terms charismatic and evangelical - all seem to have a bad meaning any more while years ago they had good meanings.

 

By your standards it looks like we might have only two or three on here! )

Probably fewer than that.

// Aggressive Soulwinning (door knocking)//

Your two phrases seem to contradict each other. I've found 'successful Soulwinning' is NOT door knocking. Aggressive soulwinning, if it is successful, is NOT door knocking. I've seen 100s saved - none by door knocking. If you are a stranger in town, you might start knocking a few doors until you meet somebody to be in your church. After that, the people you get to come to your church know people. Newly saved persons know more unsaved persons than do 'long time saved people'. 'Long time saved people' tend to have saved friends. Knocking doors are a waste of time - time which belongs to God, not to 18th century (1701-1800) soul winning techniques. Actually, the studying of done of the Great Awakening depended first on prayer. Prayer means praying for lost people - people who are on your prospects list(s).

//The preservation of Gods word in The Authorized King James Bible.//

I respectfully disagree. Why waste one's time for God teaching Early Modern English -- Elizabethan English? Teach the Written Word of God to the lost via Today's language.

I spent some 40 years of my life helping other save the Southern Baptists for the Fundamentalists. The true fundamentalists who are successfull are in the SBC using the NIV to teach fundamentalism.

The fundamentals of traditional fundamentalism:

1. the inspiration and infallibility of scripture
2. the deity of Christ (including His virgin birth)
3. the substitutionary atonement of Christ's death
4. the literal resurrection of Christ from the dead
5. the literal return of Christ in the Second Advent

Note the first one is about the Written Word of God, the Holy Bible (AKA: Holy Scripture). Note that #2 to #5 (the last four) are about the Living Word of God, Messiah Jesus. In fact, they make a good 4-step 'Plan of Salvation' to teach. Successfull church growth doesn't spend it's time teaching un-Biblical Bible theories or knocking doors. Successful church building doesn't include adding to the fundamentals of Real Christ centered churchy things like 'hot bands', 'hot preaching' (some of the most successful pastors get preaching from satellite TV ministries. It is the lay people reaching out using WORDS THAT REACH PEOPLE not words that have a philosophical warm fuzzy feel-good ear-tickling tone.
