Not trying to "flame" you!

[The Hortons]

Okay, I stumbled across your site while searching for images of amputations...I'm a med student, not a creep. Also am very interested in religions, and people beliefs, faith, etc. I'd just like a response from some of you all as to what it is that makes you so convicted and adamant about your beliefs. Basically what has gotten you to the point you're at now? I mean, I've never heard of a group of people that actually consider self-amputation, outside of CSI. And really, I'm not trying to flame or disrespect anyone, just would like to know more about you all.

Re: Not trying to "flame" you!

Okay, you're misunderstanding my purpose. I've read the Bible, the one you go by. I'm just trying to understand more about LBC...I can't say I'm surprised at the response though, I've read a lot of the posts in here, and most responses are without any type of answer, just some half-witted "comeback." I'm really trying to respect your stance on things, notice the word respect, I really don't know how to simplify it anymore than that. Call me names, say whatever you like, I'm more interested in personal stories that let people know and understand why individuals are so convicted in this following.

You've already started with the name calling. Please point out in the KJV 1611 Bible any scripture we are violating. I'll wait patiently, as I am a patient man.

Re: Not trying to "flame" you!

Again, misunderstood me. When did I say you violated any scripture?

Jesus.

Look son, we follow the entire King James Bible here. We are Independent Baptist Bible Literalists. It all leads back to scripture.

The only reason for any of what we do is the KJV 1611. The only "personal stories" you should be concerned with are in the Bible!

Re: Not trying to "flame" you!

Okay, sir that's enough out of you.

Let me get this straight... you found us by looking for pictures of amputated limbs? So what's your issue with us?

Matthew 18:7-9 tells us that if our hands lead us to sin, hack them off. Yeah we have instructions booklets in our church for self-amputation and self-circumcision. What's the beef, sir?

[The Hortons]

Re: Not trying to "flame" you!

Don't believe I have a "beef" with any of you. I'm just curious how you got to where you are now. Obviously something has led you to LBC, like maybe you were part of a different group at some point in your life, and you realized that LBC was where you should be...just want to know what led some of you to LBC. I understand that the KJV has to do with it, you've made that clear, I got that part. But for those of you that weren't born into the LBC, or have only ever been part of LBC.

Why do you object to following God's Word?

Matthew 5:29-30

And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

Are you an atheist or something? Why do you think we should ignore things Jesus Himself said?

Re: Not trying to "flame" you!

I don't recall disagreeing with it.

Re: Not trying to "flame" you!

Sometimes people cone onto this forum begging for attention and try to appease us by saying they follow "some" of the Word of God. You are one of them.

Repent now. We aren't deviating from the True Word of God, don't bother convincing us otherwise. We are right, you're not. Simple. Flame us as much as you want, the flames of Hell will reciprocate it.

Re: Not trying to "flame" you!

I'd like to know why you're barging in here demanding answers, when you haven't even shown the courtesy and respect of introducing yourself?

Please make a thread of your own in the "Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.

[The Hortons]

Re: Not trying to "flame" you!

Okay, I've introduced myself, and I'm not demanding answers, not saying you're wrong about anything....anyone else care to add anything worth reading?
