Line Between Heresy and Difference of Opinion
It is a priviledge, not a right, to post on this board. That is a given. There are established rules to follow. That means that members follow them and that they are fairly enforced by moderators and administrators.
The reason that the line between heresy and a difference of opinion be clearly defined, and understood by everyone, is that crossing that line, once or however many times is determined to be justified, can and does result in banishment. It seems to be that line is quite... -
Total depravity and Genesis 4:7
How could an unregenerate, totally depraved Cain rule over / master sin by doing what's right without being regenerated? -
Do those holding To KJVO Commit Christian Idolatry?
they seem to equate the KJV as Muslims do the Koran, so that they appear to revere the KJV iteself as being the WORD of God to us, and on same par as Word of God Jesus?
Are they really worshipping a book, and not the One Book points us towards? -
Myth of no need of revision
In the article that serves as the basis of another thread, James W. Knox wrote: "My purpose today is to appeal to those who are convinced our English Bible stands without error and bears no need of revision."
How could anyone who knows about the history of our English Bible make such a faulty claim as suggesting that the English Bible bears no need of revision?
The KJV is not exclusively our English Bible as Knox seems to assume. An English Bible [actually several different English... -
reading Philippians instead of a sermon?
I am considering suggesting this to my pastor to serve as the beginning of his upcoming series on Philippians: A service dedicated to the reading of the entire book. It would go something like this (details very loose at this point):
-Opening song
-Welcome and explaination of what we are doing
-Read Ch. 1
-Related song(s)
-Read Ch. 2
-Related song(s)
-Read Ch. 3
-Related song(s)
-Read Ch. 4
-Related song(s)
(probably a prayer or 2 in there as well).
I saw this done at another church and... -
Baptist or Believer: Which Came First?
I was wondering how you introduce yourself to others when you meet them for the first time and discover [actually feel the Holy Spirit nudge you to witness] that they are open to hear about your relationship with Jesus.
Please take a moment to answer the poll questions! -
Let’s review some basic Christian understanding
No space for all the Scripture verses, but all of the following is in Scripture.
ALMIGHTY GOD
Revealed Himself as 3 “Persons”: God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit.
These 3 Persons-Manifestations are One God in total and perfect unity of purpose.
Omnipresent (everywhere), omniscient (all-knowing), omnipotent (all-powerful).
Always has seen the end from the beginning (one day to Him is 1000 of our years).
Always desired to accomplish most of His goals on earth with man’s... -
A pastor’s 1st or 2nd responsibility
As I see it, there are two main responsibilities a senior pastor has(we can discuss which one is first later), and I see one of them being woefully overlooked. One of these responsibilities is winning souls to Christ and the other is ministering to the Saints.
This thread is about the second.
Depending upon the kind of man your pastor is, he may mostly preach about “God’s Love” or about “sin/doctrine”(you shouldn’t preach about sin without it going hand in hand with Bible doctrine).... -
For Those Who Love The KJV
The following link is to a June 2011 article in regard to the 400th anniversary of the KJV that was written by Bro.James W. Knox, Pastor of THE BIBLE Baptist Church of Deland,FL. It is a commentary worth reading that makes some excellent points about what God's intentions are in regard to His Word. I'm not posting it for any intention of debate, but rather that I think it exhorts all Bible Believing Christians to a higher purpose than merely "possessing" the words of God. Check out the... -
