Baptist Faith and Message statement
"The Holy Bible was written by men divinely inspired and is God's revelation of Himself to man. It is a perfect treasure of divine instruction. It has God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth, without any mixture of error, for its matter. Therefore, all Scripture is totally true and trustworthy.

Who are we to question God's judgment? If He, in His power and Wisdom, makes serpents and asses to speak, cannot King James be used as a tool for His Message to Mankind?

Anyhoo - even if James were an abomination, did he adopt that lifestyle before or after his work for God?

I think you can understand if I'm a little confused. Perhaps not all of your group agrees with each other. If all scripture is totally true and trustworthy why do you prefer the King James?

Re: Happy birthday, universe!

As far as I know, no intact copies of the original bible remain, so how do you know what you now have is similar to the original?

Please read my sermon on the subject HERE, and ou will have your question answered in full.

Also, was King James not a homosexual, thereby "corrupting" his version of the bible?

Please show us the proof of your hateful accusation.

Even assuming it was true, don't you know that God uses us all as He sees fit? If God wants to use a queer to spread His Holy Word all over the world, then who are you to question it?

Re: Happy birthday, universe!

The Bible was written by men inspired by God; therefore by God. Think of it as a videocassette recording. What is being videotaped is God in action....the process of putting what it is physically happening (God) onto the tape itself is Men...so what we have is basically a videotape of God.

Re: Happy birthday, universe!

But that bible is a translation. Even the original was not written directly by the hands of god, correct?

Actually we do. The recording is the King James Bible. These are the words of God. The problem only lies with you in denying this recording.

Re: Happy birthday, universe!

I can use the same argument. He may not have seen the beginning of the universe, but did you hear god's voice? Do you have a recording? I think not.

Re: Happy birthday, universe!

Excellent point. Why can't people take the word of the Creator as to when He created everything? Who would be in a better position to know?

There is no supernatural creator.

Hey, how about you answer these questions?

[Pastor Billy-Reuben]

Re: Happy 6,010th birthday, universe!

I don't need scripture, I have science.
Science is so much more reliable.

More reliable? Scientists change their story every week. First whales were descended from bears, then they were descended from hippos, now they're supposedly descended from deer.

God's Holy Word, on the other hand, has stood the test of time and is unchanging.

How can that be? The Bible is the Word of God, and who could possibly know the date of creation better than the Creator?
