There were many (including those who have taught me) who sort of "Joked around" about the verses and chapter markings being "inspired" parts of the text especially when it came to matters regarding biblical numerology. I am glad that verse and chapter markings are there and will happily use them...

For starters, how about that which is between the ears of most human beings? Man's ability to think and reason has not been destroyed by the fall. Mankind is totally (radically if you prefer) depraved meaning that mankind left to his own free will, will always reject any revelation God has...

Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. 2 Corinthians 5:20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you...

The Amplified Bible seems kind of passe' these days. Hardly ever mentioned, is it even in print? If I wanted a parallel between the KJV and a "Paraphrase," I think I would prefer the NLT.

Just goes to show how misplaced and nutty their priorities are! Wilkerson and his ilk still have a long way to go! Who gives a dying rip about his hairstyle or manner of dress! I am certain he had lots of great information that the attendees could have and should have benefited from! I would...

I became a member of Lancaster Baptist in 1995 and even back then, Paul Chappell had largely separated himself from Hyles stating that he "had not had him in to preach in several years" but since this was before my time, I can only guess that this was likely in response to the fallout from the...

Has the "Balance of Power" now shifted within the IFB world? I know literally next to nothing these days and am blissfully ignorant of most things IFB. Have things dispersed among smaller camps or IFB "Sleeper Cells?" Has Paul Chappell now become the defacto "IFB Baptist Pope" or is there...

Spiritual warfare is quite real although I desire not to get overly "mystical" about the matter. We have seen some wonderful breakthroughs with family members both here in the States as well as in the Philippines but such has not been without consequences. The main Church we are working with...

I guess if you just go with technology, you can do whatever you want limited only by file size and storage on your hard drive or cloud? I am somewhat of a "luddite" though preferring to carry around an actual BIBLE with paper pages and leather binding! I am especially adamant about this when I...

I am thankful for everything DHS and ICE has done since President Trump has been elected but as a person, she disgusts me! I feel sorry for the man and I am embarassed for him!

Why not just use big "Post-it" stickies?

When I first saw this thread, I thought it said "Servetus Conference 2026!" :ROFLMAO:

He can and he does but when there is water and nothing that hinders one from being baptized, they should do so.

I can live with this. Looks like most of us Baptists would be on the same page here. I believe there is a line to be drawn here between being cautious and being overly contentious. If a prospective congregation was being overly contentious about my baptism, I am not sure this would be some...

Hell will freeze over before I vote for this clown!

Actually, I would as well. You have Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, and Airmen who are going out into combat with no guarantee that they will make it home so of course I am sympathetic to this but there may be some issues when they do return home and affiliate (as they should) with a local...

I have heard this before but personally, I think my KJV is more "Calvinist" than the ESV! 😉

I guess this would be where I am a stickler for baptism being an ordinance of the church and would be adamant of the fact that military chaplains may be viable religious leaders and perhaps even possess a saving faith and be orthodox in their doctrine but they are still not operating under the...

I guess that's what a Babtist gets for insisting on using a Bible translated by a bunch of "Baby Sprinklers!"
