    Is the NIV or the KJV the truer word?

    Why is God's "word"...the message itself...locked into only one specific language from one specific time period...and who decides what message from what era?

    failure mom

    I understand how you feel. If you have done your best to raise them in the ways of the Lord and His word, and then to have this happen, it can be heart breaking. But I would like to encourage you to not despair because the story isn't over...there is more to come. Basically, if your child...

    Music in church....(tin hat on)

    I can see and understand the logic for this, but I also see another effect...it divides and separates the body of Christ. You would have two groups that would basically have little to do with each other.

    Music in church....(tin hat on)

    So we should take joy and celebration out of worship? Psalm 33:3 Psalm 47:1-9 Psalm 95:1-2 Psalm 100:1-2 Psalm 144:9 Psalm 150:1-6 You are also passing judgment in that a celebrative style is not reverent. How do you know? Just because you do not "feel it" means it is null and void for...

    Music in church....(tin hat on)

    After much thought I have come to one of two conclusions: - Make sure that NO worship music is pleasing to the flesh at all...meaning we must make sure that no one likes or enjoys the tune. We must strive to make it sound like a combination of a cat yowling and someone sick to their...

    Rebuking word curses

    Okay, let's make sure I've got this right. If someone says "Take care" to me, instead of me presuming that they care about what happens to me and are being nice, I should be offended because I don't need to take care because I have cast all my cares on Jesus? And because I trust in Christ I...

    Deep theological question.

    Okay, some early song books were called "Psalters." And for a while there was a Christian religious sect called the "Shakers." If this group use these songs books would they be Psalter Shakers?

    SBC statement on Calvinism and Arminianism

    Ecclesiastes 9:2-3 "All things come alike to all: One event happens to the righteous and the wicked; to the good and clean and the unclean; to him who sacrifices and him who does not sacrifice. As is the good, so is the sinner; He who takes an oath as he who fears an oath. This is an evil...

    Bible Versions

    In Acts 2:5-13 the Lord deals with the language barrier very effectively. The Lord caused those of other languages to hear the word of God in their own language. The truth of the Lord is not locked into any one single language or any archaic form of that language. We had best not return to...

    Will "few" or "many" be saved?

    Yeah...good point. Why debate about how many? :confused:

    Will "few" or "many" be saved?

    Right, multitudes from all nations will be saved. A large number which cannot be numbered...the number is large but it is also unknown. The idea in the vision is a large multitude...you cannot twist that to mean most of the world's population. The Bible never reflects that the majority of the...

    Will "few" or "many" be saved?

    Most of the world's population will not be saved...that most of the world will be saved is not what Jesus meant by "many." You have to look at the context...read the verse in context with the verses it is found in. Many of the Jews and their leaders were under the idea that only the Jewish...
