    Why I believe the KJV is God's chosen translation of divine truth: Psalm 119:89; Psalm 12:6-7; Mark 13:31 openly declare that God by divine fiat ordained the perpetuity of his perfect Word through human history. Just like his ordination of Genesis 9:11 regarding the flood, so is his ordination of his Word of truth. You see, expressions such as truth, perfection, and holiness are in the purest sense equal terms, and are elemental to the very character of the Godhead. Inside God's divine perfection there is a subtle law that says the shortcoming of human depravity cannot possibly be relied upon to postulate a perfect condition which supersedes itself. The notion that imperfection has power to fully decipher perfection is utterly impossible. It would be asking God's omniscience to step aside for imperfection's encryption of truth-a vain attempt which, if pursued, becomes the spiritual violation called pride. Imperfect translators cannot perfectly unravel perfection. Without God's divine ordination, that positional reverse makes such imperfect decryption from behind the Divine curtain tantamount to salvation through the genius of human works. Such reasoning flies in the face of Divine truth. But there's more: Since God ordained his choice for each human generation, he would certainly perpetually identify it. Since humanity at large has a rational intuition toward our Creator, they will naturally identify their translation of choice. For over 400 years they have identified the KJV alone as their top choice. Also, the NKJV is not a new translation (it rather declares itself to be a correction of the KJV), then the KJV and the NKJV combined places the KJV translation far and away humanity's favorite. All other translators might consider renaming their translations as commentaries. If another translator also claims theirs to be God ordained, the question arises as to why God would perfect what he has already made perfect 400 years ago?

    Please pray for my son. He was in a car accident last week. He is uninjured, thank the Lord, but his car is totaled. The other guy turned left in front of him. So, please pray that this other driver's insurance is able to resolve this claim quickly so that Kevin can e get a rental car soon until he gets paid for the loss of his car and can get a replacement vehicle. It was the other driver's fault in that my son had a green light to proceed straight through the intersection, the other driver was to yield to my son and didn't.

    Thankful that all passengers were ok. But, my son uses his car for his work. He is using our small Prius now and we have just a truck to drive now. Hope things get settled very soon without delays or snags.

    Dear Jyoti,

    So sorry that Shyam has passed. I pray that everyone in his family is comforted and are given peace that overcomes the grief of this loss. We pray hoping for God to spare lives of those we love, but God's answers always come and His will is always best. Take care, Jyoti

    Hi Spencer

    Would you like to discuss the discrepancy between the book of Mormons and the Bible? If so let's do a separate thread.

    Yes, let's look at doing this I think it will be helpful.

    Thank you

    1 Corinthians 1:17. Here's a verse where the emphasis is often placed on whether Paul baptized or not, when thw focus should be on the division amongst believers. Here's the key text. 1 Corinthians 1:11-13..

    ....IS CHRIST DIVIDED? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?

    NO! Christ is not divided.

    Notice vs 17.

    For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, LEST THE CROSS OF CHRIST SHOULD BE MADE OF NONE EFFECT.

    There's power in preaching the cross UNITES BELIEVERS and it is not in man's intellect. It's not in joining another's belief system! It's the baptism of the Holyspirit that puts you into the body of Christ where you become children of God. And the Spirit causes you to love your brother. But it divides unbelievers and believers. Vs18. For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

    Read on through

    1 Corinthians 1:18-31.

    Also 1 Corinthians 2:1-5.

    I'm at odds with heresies and I respond to those who undermine the truth. But I don't hate them.

    Here's verses I try to keep in mind when it seems to be tares, apostates or contentious brothern present.

    2 Thessalonians 3:14-15.

    2 John 1:10-11.

    Galatians 1:8-10.

    Titus 3:9-11.

    The thing is it's discernment not partiality. You don't know them by their works, You know them by their fruit. And it certainly seems that certain doctrine is sown to the flesh and produces corruption and is at odds with the truth.

    Therefore they're are fruitless.

    We also sometimes walk in the flesh "trying to put on politeness" and say something polite by telling these tares they have something to offer, But scripture says otherwise.

    You can politely rebuke them with scripture. But any carnal establishment or person will say you're contentious.

    1 Peter 3:14-17.

    God bless.

    S. Spencer. A great statement I was told years ago everything gives off or

    Displays something so I think of Ephesians 4:29 when I think about that

    Statement also James 3:13-17. No one cares how much you now until

    You show how much you care.

  • Richard H Priday on Revelation 14 - 2 years ago
    This is another reference to the 144,000 who appear to be translated or raptured as they appear before the heavenly Mt. Zion. They have the seal of God on their foreheads which they were given earlier to prevent the plagues from God to affect them ( Rev. 9:4). They are mentioned as "firstfruits" and they would be the last of a whole train of people in heaven from Christ ( 1 Cor. 15:23) until now. Those who will be with Him at His coming will include all the rest of the martyrs who would not take the mark of the Beast (see v. 9-11). There were general admonitions given by angels to worship God who created all things; as well as the fall of Babylon (the great city) which would be the ECONOMIC part of Babylon (i.e. the city running everything) which some say is Rome; others New York City; or possibly a future one in the Middle East. Since the term "is fallen" is stated twice in verse 8; it indicates that the spiritual Babylon system of false religion ALSO is overturned by the Beast at this time (as we wee in further detail in Revelation 17 and 18.

    The warnings in verse 9 about not taking the mark of the Beast and eternal damnation also is preached by an angel. Verses 12 and 13 show those who will still die; and the "patience" of the saints. They will rest after their labors.

    The rest of the chapter shows the judgment of the nations at Armageddon; and perhaps in the bigger picture with the bloodbath to come. Various angels are seen with sickles (v. 16 and 17) who are given instruction by the angel in verse 15. Verses 18 and 19 show those that are grapes; those who will be trodden by the wrath of the winepress of God ( Isaiah 63:3). It seems unclear if the angels in v. 15-17 are gathering the righteous (as it would seem from preceeding verses); or the wicked. There is the possibility that it would be those who will not fight in battle who are the tares. God isn't mentioned specifically or a heavenly view of saints; in general Matt. 13:30 will occur.

    Giannis GBU...But you are wrong....While we were yet sinners Christ died for us...All of us.... Romans 10:20...I was found of them that sought me not and i was made manifest unto them that asked not after me...Its Jesus that is gonna do the drawing...If i be lifted up i will I will I will DRAW ALL MEN UNTO ME unto me...God showed his love for humanity while we were yet sinners Jesus died for everyman....I will draw all men unto me... Romans 5:9 kjv....Thats y Rev...7:9 is saying...I saw a number that NO MAN cd number of all nations tribes and ppls and tongues and kindreds....Its Jesus who drew all these ppl to HIMSELF....Which is that New Covenant in his Blood....I will KNOW THEM ALL FROM THE LEAST TO THE GREATEST...And their sins and iniquities will i remember no more... Jeremiah 31:34...A new Covenant not according to the old covenant....Many called few chosen...But this New Covenant in his blood is a ..I WILL KNOW THEM ALL FROM THE LEAST TO THE GREATEST...If i be lifted up i will draw all men unto me..Thus a number no man can number...

    ......Remember Legion the man with all the demons, he wanted nothing to do with Jesus...But Jesus cast the devils outta of Legion anyway....Jesus didn't care what Satan wanted....He paid the price for every man...As we are all bought with a price...his blood.

    God gave those beings a choice ,to obey and serve or not they chose not, their choice was to follow one who saw himself equal to God. So like a parent you have a few children each is different, would you want your children to love you because you told them to.No you would want them to love you because they chose to love you not because you made them, that kind of love is real love, that is the love God wants from us.

  • Joao Jose Nunes on Genesis 1:1 - 2 years ago
    Before God was created the creation, I could see the first Trinitarian from the beginning of the Genesis:1:1-3, I feel what God carried out the things from his word, it was His power of the Spirit, and the same word could seen the transformation took placed in the Mother Mary womb when Jesus had to born, and thus it meant by John say in the gospel to us 1:1, In the beginning was the word, and the word was with the God, and the word was God, So I could see the first Trinitarian stood side by side,

    Luke 12:48, it's about discipline,

    The people Jesus was speaking to, understood that for of discipline/punishment because it was very publicity done in their society, see Deuteronomy 25:1-3, 2Corinthians 11:23,24, Acts 16:23, Proverbs 19:29,

    Isaiah 53, Isaiah 53:5,

    Context Luke 12, it starts off Luke 12:1 "In the meantime._.._." therefore you have to go back a page or more to get fuller context. Luke 11, starts Luke 11:1 "And it came to pass._._" also a continuation but atleast you can see a good contextual beginning in Luke 11:1 they were asking Jesus to teach them to pray. Jesus started to teach them Luke 11:2-52, also bringing the Church Leadership into correction, while teaching all around, including those leaders. Luke 11:53-54, those leaders were waiting for a time to trip him up. Luke 12, begins as that moments continuation, so Jesus in the crowds chaos continued teaching Luke 12:1 "._._.. Beware ye of the ._._.hypocrisy ", (please read in context) Jesus then encourages us & all around Him, the Love GOD has for us & HIS promises of provision of all needs, even during wrongful persecution & death. Luke 12:3-40, with continued warning of hypocrisy, Luke 12:41-59, notice Luke 12:45, mistreatment of others, disregard of responsibility as Stewardship, leadership, ect.

    Looks like Jesus is talking about being responsible for those people & things put into the care, trust of HIS "servants" knowingly or unknowingly sinning against, if you're a leader, trusted with anyone & especially the Church.

    Matthew 25:31-46, Matthew 7, Romans 14:12,

    Hopefully these are helpful

  • Luke - 2 years ago
    Apostate: One who has abandoned one's religious faith, a political party, one's principles, or a cause.

    Amos 5:15 Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the LORD God of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.

    Psalms 97:10 Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

    Romans 1:18 For the wrath of God is visibly unveiled from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth with unrighteousness [wrongdoing];

    The Fly Away Doctrine is evil, read Ezekiel 13:20

  • Richard H Priday on Revelation 13 - 2 years ago
    Revelation 13.

    This is it. All the cards; so to speak are out on the table. There is no more pretense; hiding behind images that appeal to sensual thoughts; or the solace of contemplative meditation in quiet shrines; or any such nonsense mixing Christ in whatever flavor suits the sage; teacher; wise men or prophets of any religion. This is THE image of the Antichrist; no doubt inspired by the injury as described in Zech 11:17. This deadly wound could involve a real death with the beast coming out of the pit as the king of the Abyss ( Rev. 9:11) at the 5th Trumpet earlier now possessing the body of the man who was given a deadly wound. No doubt this appears as a Resurrection and since it is right before the death and resurrection of the 2 Prophets it reinforces his indestructibility (verse 4).

    Now we see the blasphemy that repeatedly describes not only Antichrist; but his followers as the bowl judgments commence. Now the saints are overcome (V. 7 also stated in Dan. 7:21).

    The time frame according to v. 5 is limited; but verse 8 indicates ALL not written in the Book of Life worship him.

    Verse 11 to verse 17 shows the False Prophet doing miracles just like Elijah did before he was killed and raise up. The miracles convince people to worship the beast healed (v. 14) from the deadly wound; and to take the infamous mark along with worshipping the Beast's image.

    Notice these actions and "wonders" are all done by the False Prophet himself on BEHALF of the Beast. The last verse has the famous "666 or Six hundred threescore and six" number; either signifying in Greek the letters of the name of Anchrist; or his characteristic of being short of God's perfection (777) a sort of "unholy trinity". I surmise it is a DNA alteration making one be as Nephilim; supposedly immortal like the Beast; and hence like the angels NOT redeemable with the blood of Christ for men. There won't be much food left for those who do take it; and those who don't will soon be martyrs.
