    Presuming that KJVOs are lost is a violation of the Baptist Board rules.
    Perhaps I have accepted a bit wider application of the Great Commission than you have. I teach many who I have not personally won to Christ. In Sunday School, not everyone is my personal convert. The same for the Morning Service, Evening Service, Midweek Service, the College and Seminary I taught/teach at. I don't demand that a person be my personal convert before I am willing to teach them truth regarding God's word.
    It is the fault of every Christian who refuses to earnestly contend for the faith once delivered, and/or chastises those who are willing to do so.
    Each of us has an international ministry via the internet. And, of course, we are talking about the Baptist Board where you do participate on a regular basis.
    So do I, on several such forums.
    My priority is all the counsel of God.
    We should all do our best to confront and correct false doctrine.
    What you said that I took exception with was "Well then, DUH, you're not going to convince him. Why waste your God given time? Do something worthwhile with it!"

    We won't convince anyone of anything if we don't take the time to try.

    William,

    You need to know what you are speaking of before you post. To blaspheme is also to attribe that which is of God to the devil. You have done that with the Word of God. You did not hurt my feelings, I do not run on emotion in this forum. I will always stand when someone speaks against God's Word. BTW--you have more bad information, I do not use the NIV, my versions of preference is the NKJV, RSV & the KJV.

    Cassidy already showed that Reuchlin didnt have the phrase in question.

    What will you think up next, O messenger of lies?

    I have looked at it! (And it is Codex, not codice, and Reuchlin not Rachlin! If you are going to engage in this discussion at least learn to spell the name of the Codex!)

    Codex Reuchlin, or 1r, now called 2814, reads the same as the modern versions, the opposite of the KJV. I have told you that at least 3 times now. How many more times will I have to say it before it sinks in?

    So you are admitting that you think God lied when He said He would preserve His word for EVERY generation? And He really only preserved His word from 1525 until today? Why do you believe God lied about the years from 100Ad through 1525AD?

    One thing I am certainly grateful for after reading your post is that your above sentence is not true with us. I grow weary of you slandering and blaspheming God's Word, the NKJV and RSV are God's Word the same as the KJV. You are lucky the moderators are more patient than I, you should be banned for what you have said against God's Word. I will chose from this time not to speak with you until you repent and stop balspheming God's Word.

    Gee... I didn't know Erasmus was one of the authors of scripture... but I have witnessed William write that more than once.

    Amazing what you can learn around here.

    I pray that one day Trotter learns the difference between "learning something" and "getting dumber".

    I wish I could be as smart as I was BEFORE I read the first line of William posting.

    We really need a sarcasm icon. My remarks were totally tongue in cheek...

    Just because something is not exactly the same as the KJV doesn't mean that it is a tool of Satan. The divisive KJVO myth is a tool of Satan. It is designed to divide Christians, and it is doing a fine job. If you really want all to be likeminded, then stop supporting the divisive KJVO myth and stop slandering the word of God in any version except the KJV. You will find that when you and other KJVO supporters start supporting the word of God instead of slandering it then all will be likeminded.

    I believe the BV forum is simply a place for the MV camp to fire bullets at the KJV camp--it's like a firing range. There is no value in having a forum where there is absolutely no reasonable discussion going on.

    There are some KJVOs who are very radical and do try and force their radical beliefs on everyone. The MVs like to clump all the radicals with the people who simply want to defend the KJV and share with others the reasons why they use the KJV, exclusive of all the MVs. I never have tried to "force" my beliefs down anyone's throat--contrary to what some on this forum think (and you know who you are). I never claimed to be a Bible scholar--but some here are claiming to be Greek and Hebrew scholars--and that's fine. However, that does not give them the right to "bash" others over the head with all their "knowledge" (knowledge puffeth up) and claim that they are correct in everything they say--are they God? Pre-conceived ideas about KJVO--without really botheing to find out what KJVO is--does a diservice to the KJV and misrepresents the defenders of the KJV as KJV Only "cultists".

    The MVs have the freedom to use whatever version of the Bible they wish to use--but you have no authority to say that I am a KJV Only cultist because I simply want to defend the KJV. That seems to be what this forum has turned out to be--a platform of "labeling" and "name calling".
