Featured Does a Multitude of Modern English Bible Versions Promote a Violation of 1 Cor 1:10

The KJV is the only thing you disagree with and attack. You do not think there is any danger in anything else worth warning anyone about. Therefore your silence is acceptance and the only thing to avoid is KJV only.

Do you realize that you never glorify the word of the Lord like the Thessalonians did. Your posts are always negative and what not to believe. It is never about what one should believe. There is a storm cloud over your comments.


Acts 1 thru 7 the apostles preached to Jews only, first in Jerusalem like he said, and then in Judaea.

Jesus said to the apostles to preach in Samaria
Ac 8:25 And they, when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans.

Jesus said to preach in all the world.

Ac 11:16 Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.
Ac 13:48 And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.
Ac 13:49 And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.

Why did the gentiles glorify the word of the Lord? It was because the apostles told what the word of the Lord had commanded them to do. Here is the command to them toward a hopeless segment of the world:
47 For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.
The word of the Lord is a "He." Don't miss this.

Ac 15:35 Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.
Ac 15:36 And some days after Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they do.
Ac 16:32 And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.
Ac 19:10 And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
1Th 1:8 For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.
1Th 4:15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
2Th 3:1 Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have [free] course, and be glorified, even as [it is] with you:
1Pe 1:25 But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.

The word of the Lord given after the Jews had rejected the salvation of God is a new thing. It is now preached to the gentiles.

Lu 14:15 And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.
16 Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many:
17 And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready.
18 And they all with one consent began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused.
19 And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.
20 And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.
21 So that servant came, and shewed his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind.
22 And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room.
23 And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
24 For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.

Gentiles had never been bidden to the supper and it is no wonder they glorified the word of the Lord for his command that they should hear and be saved. I, a gentile, glorify the word of the Lord and thank you Lord for saving me.

 

That is not the way of the Lord. Men have free will and they can oppose the Lord if they choose to. They are accountable for their actions or there would not be a judgement.

 

Division is not a bad thing. It is commanded by Jesus Christ.

Ro 16:17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.
18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
19 For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil.
20 And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

Deceiving? By magic and miracles and visions? No, with good words and fair speeches.

Spoken in Romans under the theme "the gospel of God."

 

What words in the KJV, if believed literally, would condemn the believer and how does literally believing what God says dishonor God?

Ro 5:6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

There are several men on this forum who do not believe this verse as it is written and many of them carry new modern translations. But I believe these words as they are written and in the context of those, who in this world, have been proven to be the ungodly in the previous 4 chapters leading up to this conclusion by the apostle Paul. The ungodly are identified as those who have been born into the family of Adam. They become ungodly because they have no power against sin, who the text says is a sovereign over the sons of Adam. [Ro 5:21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord].

Would you condemn me for believing this because it is written in the KJV Bible? Take a look at A through L from BibleGateway.com and ask yourself if making many Bibles is really so one can understand the scriptures better. The men that I am speaking of here, the Mormons, the Russellites, the Calvinists and all others who fit themselves into an elite group who alone Christ died for are not helped by these versions below. Many of them honor the context, but not all. In your view, who is the most guilty, those who do not accept the atonement made for Adam's race, who are weak and without the strength to save themselves from the penalty of sin (death) or the person who believes the words of the KJV?

The safeguard for apostasy and false doctrine is not in a man like you who obviously feels like he is chosen of God to deal with this one subject exclusively and address what you have determined is a problem, that is that people actually believe the words they read, but it is in the local church where there is a pastor and deacons who are apt to teach. These pastors are instructed to study to show themselves approved of God and to rightly divide the word of truth. I do not see a ministry like yours anywhere in the scriptures. All your proofs for your position is what other men say or have said. You do not have a biblical argument that exalts the Lord and his word and your books you sell on the market on this one subject enters in to churches and undermines the pastors in many cases.

I remember what the evangelist Paul said and it is different from you.

Ac 20:26 Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men.
27 For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God.

I cannot remember you attempting to teach anything that is not related to the negative side of your story. I gave you some of what I have learned about the nature of the words of God according to Jesus Christ in John 6:63 where he said his words were spirit and life and that they must be in one to give life, or to quicken someone and you ignored that. I have asked you for the biblical charge to the church or para church organizations to translate the scriptures and you have not produced anything.

Maybe you think you are more righteous than KJ bible believers and they are deceived but you are not and cannot be.

 

You have not read the thread apparently. Logos has no other subject and I did not start the thread to talk about it, but if you deal with him, it is about nothing else. Go back and read and post the comment numbers where he has dealt with the subject without inserting a charge against KJV only believers.

Point me to three places in the thread where he has said that. If he has said it repeatedly it should not be hard for you.

Where has he said there are other inspired English versions?

Deacon, with due respect to you, I think you are just blowing smoke in this offering.
