    Absolutely wouldn't mind having that in my home. But I don't think it'd go with the decor. I have nothing against fireplace tools, and obviously this one - being painted - is not intended for use...but I have mo room for it (I have a fireplace but here never have needed it).

    Do you think that person is a KKK member? I also see the confederate flag proudly on display.

    I think the worship of the KJV is a tell regarding many spiritual issues that are tied to legalism.

    I would take these doors and nonceremoniously use them as kindling for my fire pit.

    It looks like a store (the mirror on the right and camera). I've seen rebel flags in country stores (even in Black owned country stores in TN). So it could just be a regional thing.

    If it is the same person that I think that it is, James Melton is an independent Baptist, KJV-only pastor so I would hope that he is not a KKK member. I have never met him and have never been to his church, but I have read some of his KJV-only writings. If I recall correctly, he did pastor a church in Tennessee.

    I would bet that person doesn't really use the 1611 KJV but a later revised edition which has many changes. He might even be one of those people who say there have never been any changes to the KJV.

    Not defending his KJO -
    But just because someone displays the CSA flag does NOT mean they are KKK
    Rather they could just be a States Rights guy.

    States rights and confederate flag is generally a cover up for supporting slavery and not considering all persons to be equal.

    Some of y'all are so delusional it's pitiful.
    Confederate flag does not mean KKK member. Y'all listen too much to BLM and other lying leftist communists.

    Of course it doesn't mean they are a KKK member. It does mean they have no repentance for the enslavement of fellow brothers in Christ.

    OK - we can talk about the Flag*, Slavery, ect - but start a new thread.

    Lets get back to the OP!


    * if a new thread is started - which flag stood for no more importation of slaves.

    The doors do look like salon doors in old westerns. Is it surprising to seem to associate the 1611 KJV with them?
