When churches go "woke" and abandon the core doctrines upon which Christ has founded his church, perhaps it is a good thing that they do close!
I just skimmed the article but do they break down the demographics of the churches that are in decline? It is usually the liberal, apostate...
I have heard of some of this "MKE" stuff before from preachers saying that an "unworthy Christian" may find himself excluded from the "Marriage Supper of the Lamb" and thus being "cast into outer darkness" and so forth. Ruckman preached a message where he was trying to be humorous regarding...
Welcome! I believe you would really have to work hard in order to find yourself banned here aside from posting porn or "R-Rated" profanity but you had better have thick skin as well!
Are you related to James W Knox in Deland FL? I see that you have started a thread about him. I vaguely...
This is a big problem in the Philippines where a pastor and his family often live in a Church parsonage and are paid so poorly, it is impossible for them to accrue any savings. When they do retire (and are often forced to do so), they often have no place to go and no means in which to support...
Did demons create nuclear energy? This is obviously a ridiculous statement.
Do demons influence the activities of mankind turning against each other to the point that they want to build nuclear bombs and blow the world up three times over? Why are so many of our technological advancements borne...
There are many who take positions we would consider to be "extreme" and they do so out of sincerity and a genuine desire to please and glorify God with their lives. We should all be careful in our criticisms of such people!
The problem is when you have some "Leader" who is coercing such...
I wonder how many would have this very same testimony? I went through a season of "Serious doubt" because my "salvation experience" didn't seem to line up with that of many who were supposedly "trusting Christ" during altar calls or even when I was out doing personal soulwinning! I never "raised...
I recall Mike Norris (Franklin Road Baptist Church, Murfreesboro TN) preaching at Lancaster Baptist and for a moment, I got caught up in the emotion during the altar call and it became quite clear that he was manipulating people to "raise their hands" (he got me to - "Get em up!.......Up! Up...
Seems to me that he ought to give you credit in his introductory or dedicatory page. At the very least, he ought to send you an autographed copy! :cool:
Agreed.
The statement I made is an acknowedgement that they are being a little less horrible in a particular situation based upon what is being discussed.
Ahem...that's good to know.....I think!🤣
There is no one I have interacted with that is even remotely KJVO although I wouldn't doubt that there are some who have attended who hold to the position. Paul Chappell received Master's Degree from there a number of years ago and he is listed as one...
By "Killer Bees" I believe that Aleshanee is referring to "Baptist, Brennan, and Braemer" who each held firmly to the tenets of "Classic IFBism" and could get characteristically legalistic at times. Brennan was more reasonable of the three and has actually written a book later on exposing some...
An MDiv and Dmin is rare (but not unheard of) for the IFB-KJVO crowd. With the more "mainstream" IFB crowd, the educational standard seems to be an undergrad degree (Pastoral Theology) with perhaps a later MA to supplement and an "Honorary Doctorate" if they are able to distinguish themselves in...
With a name like that, it is a sure bet that this was a "Steven Anderson Church Plant!"
There was one in the Houston area called "Pure Words Baptist Church" that is now closed down amidst a good bit of drama and to which I say good riddance!
Following such reasoning, you wonder why they just don't stick with the "Original 1611" and rail on all the liberal apostates who use the 1769 revision!
Seriously though, it was stuff like this that ultimately made me exit the "KJV-Only Chat!"
Back in the day, this was THE SITE for "Bible Believers!" I just about had it as my "home page" when I first got on the internet in the 1990s and I was still hard-core KJVO (and using dial up to get online).
It has hardly changed since but I am not hearing any "MiDi File Hymns" like before.
I often tell folks that I did not abandon KJV-Only due to intellectual persuasion but in order to get my family in a good church away from all of the loons!
This however, is an extreme that even mainstream KJV-Only types would have to concede as being indefensible!
Counterfeit King James...
