Question Joe707's Questions - 01-16-2009, 01:39 AM

I would like to respond to some of the other comments, there are some very good issues raised. But Pastor, you are spot on. At least you can see beyond the words. I do not doubt the strength of your convictions – or indeed your knowledge of your Bible. What I call into question is the LBC claim to know God, truth, faith, love, awareness and - not least - care. And I would be prepared to take up that gauntlet, because I have seen some of the things that supposedly pass for ‘truth’ and ‘care’ here. And there are problems.

Please remember, it is not your intentions I question here, merely the way they are played out. English is indeed my native language. And I really would prefer this continue in a public forum, please. What is the worst that can happen?

Stop beating around the bush, Joe. What is it that you really want to say? Most people don't have any trouble getting that out in their first post.


May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

If the Bible is not to be trusted, then what exactly do you know about Jesus? The Bible is the only source material that describes Him. If you throw that out, then you throw out all first-hand knowledge of Jesus.

Friend, I would be delighted to explore this topic with you. Why don't you start a new thread with a few of your questions. You might want to be careful though, because we could end up answering your questions more thoroughly than you expected, and you might end up getting saved

What Bible are you familiar with? Most other Bibles are kind of close to the truth, and your familiarity with your Bible should help. I have read through lots of Bibles, and I have found the KJV1611 to be the most trustworthy by far.

The problem with those "other ways" is that they are not objective. Liberal Christians are between a rock and a hard place.

If you have the Bible and you trust it to be God's Word, then you have objective truth right there in front of you in black and white. We believe all of the Bible, even the parts that make us uncomfortable.

On the other end of the spectrum, you have scientists who use the scientific method on empirical data in an attempt to learn the truth. They believe what the evidence points to, even if it makes them uncomfortable.

In the middle, you have liberal Christians who believe the parts of the Bible that say what they want to hear, disbelieving the rest, and they believe the findings of science that say what they want to hear, disbelieving the rest.

Liberal Christians are basically living in a fantasy world, believing whatever they want to believe, without a care as to whether what they believe is actually true. Even if they did care, they have no tools for determining what is true or false. Fundamentalists have an inerrant text, and scientists have empirical methods, but liberal Christians have nothing.

Therefore, the only objective forms of belief are science and fundamentalism, and since we all know that scientists are all working for the Devil, that leaves fundamentalism as the only viable option.

Well Joe, the worst that could happen is that you could get banned or be struck by lightning. Here's the problem. You cannot take up that particular gauntlet. For your purposes, our answers would be subjective and possibly even unconvincing. But I am sure you have heard the phrase "We are a God-fearing nation". The Bible teaches us to fear God's wrath, not to expect His love. That's what it says, period. Of the 31,101 verses in the Bible, less than 200 of them do not refer, directly or indirectly, to violence and/or punishment, or God's wrath.

This started changing in the early twentieth century when evangelists, and Aimee Semple McPherson in particular, was having an off day and preached love instead of fear. She noticed that her collection plate was fuller that day, so she started preaching only the 'feel-good' parts of the Bible. She was followed by Mary Baker Eddy and Christian Science, and then a long line of traveling salvation shows and eventually an entire industry of television evangelists, scientologists, wiccans...and now...almost all church services are sing alongs, rock concerts, feel-good verses and lies. All you hear in church is what you want to hear; how much JESUS loves you, why everyone will go to heaven, why women have souls, slavery is bad, and people toss a fifty into the box so that GOD will look the other way for a week or two while they go out and keep sinning.

But it doesn't work that way. You can't pick and choose the parts of the Bible you like and ignore the rest. You can't create GOD in the image you want. And you can't go through life acting out and still expect Salvation™ because JESUS was crucified and spilled His blood to give you the freedom to run amok on earth, thus you are guaranteed a free ticket to Heaven.

That's what we tell people. That's what the Bible says, and that's all we have to go on. The "truth" is the Good Book. It's not debatable. It's not interpretable. And since the advent of television and the dumbing down of America, it's not even accessable. High school graduates no longer have the basic skills necessary to survive in the world, much less study a book they can't understand.

We don't sell anything here and I am the first to admit that we resort to a couple of card tricks to keep from being sued by everyone and his brother. So debating our convictions is pointless. We have them and we offer them freely with the gift of Scripture. But since ALL organized religions claim to be the One and Only, or the Mother Church, or follow a fast-talking Latter Day Pedophile, challenging our beliefs is not going to prove to be a successful strategy.

That said, we will still engage, but we cannot debate Bible against Bible. We use the KJV1611 (Authorized) Bible and hold it to be the correct version.

Pastor, thank you for contributing to this thread. It is good to discuss quite serious matters without resorting to silly bickering. Because these are serious and important matters. I'm sure you will agree.

Well, this might be a bit pedantic, but clearly your definition of first-hand knowledge and mine differs! But I do understand the LBC viewpoint on these things.

Well, that's ok by me (not sure what to call this thread though?) Can you create a new thread from this? Otherwise I will come up with some header, but not sure which is the most appropriate forum to post it in, so maybe better if you guys do it. And you know, Pastor, I do wonder if at the root of it all we both want similar things. Do not hesitate to answer my questions thoroughly. Because, rest assured, being 'saved' by the LBC would not be the worst thing in existence. But we both know that.

Pastor Billy-Reuben
I am looking at the KJV1611, but I am new to this, and work and other time intrusions persist, so it would no doubt take me a while to learn it as deeply as you and your pastors do. But by all means refer to your source, as I will mine.

What is your point? What is this mysterious 'source' you keep referring to?

And, what's the story with your user handle? Are you from Petaluma? Or does 707 just mean that you are lolling at us?


May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

I appreciate your honesty Pastor. I also share many reservations of the misinterpretation of - and selective focus on - truth that you have touched upon, and can see the damage it causes. I will debate with your members if need be, in the same way other people enjoy crossword puzzles. It is fun up to a point, but as you recognize, one has to move on eventually to more substantial matters. Your answers may not wholly convince me, but I am not interested in debating to score points, win liturgical battles, or to needlessly contest one Bible against another.

But yet there are elements that I would like to hear your – and senior pastors’ - opinions of. You all have a duty and a responsibility that is quite influential. And those elements I wish to raise are not only of value to your dissenters, but to everyone. There are things of faith in the Word and faith in God that should be discussed; if only because it clears the obstacles to truth. Which I guess you guys are interested in, right?

You've been beating around the bush for a while now, friend. Let's hear them already.

You've got our expectations up now, so we're all going to be really disappointed if all you have are tired old copy-and-pasted questions from skeptic websites that we've already seen and answered a dozen times. We are all expecting something new and original.

I'm going to bed now, so I'll look at your questions in the morning.

We can't win every battle, Joe. Trying to would simply dilute our efforts. We pick our battles, and we use shock tactics. But we never know whether we have won. We are not a typical ministry. We don't try to save anyone. We simply try to ummmm...motivate.. people enough that they will go to the Bible and start reading it, and that is usually to disprove something we said. It's a trick, a ploy, a teaching technique and even reverse psychology if you wish. But we don't misquote Scripture and we get a LOT more people researching the Bible than any church ever did. People think they can go to church and that's it for another week or month. We don't let them off that easily. We realize that our job is not saving souls. It's leading them to GOD. He will save them or not.

I will debate with your members if need be, in the same way other people enjoy crossword puzzles.

Sure. Neither are we. I have a life which I could be leading outside this forum. But I am a senior pastor and this is my calling at the moment.


But yet there are elements that I would like to hear your – and senior pastors’ - opinions of. You all have a duty and a responsibility that is quite influential. And those elements I wish to raise are not only of value to your dissenters, but to everyone. There are things of faith in the Word and faith in God that should be discussed; if only because it clears the obstacles to truth. Which I guess you guys are interested in, right?
We are. But I mentioned earlier that we are intentionally a bit controversial. We do not agree with Fred Phelps that 'God hates fags'. That idea is just wrong. God hates the abomination of sin they perform. In point of fact, Phelps is an idiot and more of a liberal than a Pastor. He seems to simply want attention.

We are not Vanilla Christians who have huge congregations, millions of dollars and huge skeletons in their closets. Ted Haggard. Kent Hovind. Jim and Tammy Bakker. ALL of them. They want your money and they convince a lot of people to send it to them. You CAN donate to us, but you don't have to. You can talk to a dozen of the most literate and educated Theologians anywhere just by visiting this forum, and a lot of people do. We have simply chosen a different path than the mainstream, which we believe has off-tracked from GOD'S real message. It seems to work. We are closing on half a million hits a month. Not many people join, but many, many, read what we say here. A lot of them disagree and start yelling, but a lot more actually go off to research the Scripture we quote to prove us wrong. Naturally, they can't. So they read a little more. That's our intent. We WANT people to read the Bible and we have found a novel way of getting them to do just that. I don't know why you are here yet, Joe. But the fact you are can't be a bad thing. We have somehow caught your interest.

Yes, I can see that! I don't have a problem with controversy per se; I do think some license is being taken here though.

Maybe I have nothing new or original to present here; you can judge.

My first issue is with the literal word being the sole and exclusive claim on truth. You say the KJV1611 is indeed written by God. I tried in an earlier post to point out that this claim in itself is indefensible on grounds of logic alone. Faith must be involved that this is the case; some appeal to the heart or soul rather than the intellect. I personally don’t see a problem with this state of affairs; but then I am not in the business of making extraordinary claims!

Second, to claim any text as the word of God means that (a) interpretation will be necessary. I know how strongly you oppose this, but given the obvious imprecisions inherent with word meaning I think it is the most likely outcome. And (b) that such a text is not fully comprehensive or exhaustive, so naturally some human behavior will neither conform to nor fall foul of the word; a ‘gray’ area. Again, I don’t have a problem with (b), but I suspect you guys do.

I'm sure the Pastors are being very patient with you, but when a wise man sees the facts change, he changes his mind.

Yes. Obviously the world is no longer flat.
And it's clear that When GOD created the Heavens and the Earth, time did not yet exist. So we understand that the Bible was written for humans, by humans at GOD's direction or, at least under His observation. It is Divinely inspired. History and events written down by the observers and the reasons for the events as explained by GOD. God probably didn't say "Write this down so you'll remember it". He taught by example and, naturally, people wrote it down. One tends to remember a plague of frogs or the rivers turning to blood. GOD's examples are memorable and not for the faint of heart. Those who taught falsely were smited in an instant. Only at the time of the KJV1611 did GOD actually intervene to make the Bible His true and Correct word.

However, there is a caveat. By definition, one must either believe the Bible in it's entirety, or none of it. We cannot pick and choose, or arbitrarily decide that parts need to be 'interpreted' while others are literal. The Bible is not like the Hitchiker's guide to the Galaxy. It is all or nothing. But it is what we have. If it is all, then it must be what GOD gave us, for there is no logical alternative. If it is nothing, then belief in God, or Jesus, is simply superstition and we are all dust mites.

So we must decide where to take our stand. These times, more than ever look like the End Times to me, and I actually see Revelations happening. If the world were at peace; if everyone got along and were not competing with one another to see who can poison the lands and oceans first; if we were not racing headlong to see who can cut down the last palm tree on Easter Island, and I trust the reference is not beyond you...or the results of that action...then maybe I would simply assume that GOD loves everyone and we will all meet in Heaven. But that's not what I see and that's not what GOD said.

The combination of overpopulation, a purely catholic notion, and the hate of the remaining tribes of Israel for one another will surely lead to Armageddon. Soon. All of those countries have nuclear capabilities, or are aligned with others which do.

It is simply impossible to discuss matters like this with the teenage trolls which come here. I am a Ph.D. and I have studied many disciplines of science as well as Theology. I am neither ignorant nor deluded. None of us are. But our methods are geared to our audience and our audience, much to my dismay, is severely dumbed-down.

I don't know what that is; I might have to do a google search.

He was having a joke with you. I am engaging you in all seriousness.


Maybe I have nothing new or original to present here; you can judge.

We shall not judge you for your presentation, nor for your ideas. We will judge you as we are instructed; with righteous judgment. John 7:24.

My first issue is with the literal word being the sole and exclusive claim on truth. You say the KJV1611 is indeed written by God. I tried in an earlier post to point out that this claim in itself is indefensible on grounds of logic alone. Faith must be involved that this is the case; some appeal to the heart or soul rather than the intellect. I personally don’t see a problem with this state of affairs; but then I am not in the business of making extraordinary claims!

Suppose I countered with the argument that morphologically, everyone is unique and irreplaceable; that to give each one a personalized guidebook would not be sensible, and that the soul....the component of the human which GOD will save, does not control the individual. It is merely along for the ride. The Holy Spirit within each of us is in constant conflict with the agents of evil. That fight can clearly be seen in mood swings, in inappropriate behavior, in nonsensical arguments, etc. That the Bible contains all known Truths but not necessarily ALL Truths. For we are but mortal and not gods ourselves. The Lord gives us what we can understand.

Faith that you have a soul does not constitute Salvation. In fact, no one will go to Heaven at all until Jesus returns. Until then, every living thing has been or will be returned to the dust from whence it came. Each person has free will and free faith. JESUS said He would return, but only to kill every remaining unbeliever. He does not say what he will do if we kill ourselves off in the meantime.

This argument is Theological, however. I cannot make it to every person I encounter. Faith is the cornerstone of religion, but a 'personal' relationship with Jesus or an all-loving god is a marketing ploy in most FALSE CHRISTIAN churches. Jesus is not an ATM machine or a servant to anyone's individual wishes. People cannot seem to understand that.

Second, to claim any text as the word of God means that (a) interpretation will be necessary. I know how strongly you oppose this, but given the obvious imprecisions inherent with word meaning I think it is the most likely outcome. And (b) that such a text is not fully comprehensive or exhaustive, so naturally some human behavior will neither conform to nor fall foul of the word; a ‘gray’ area. Again, I don’t have a problem with (b), but I suspect you guys do.
You are absolutely correct in my opinion, but I am not perfect and do not speak for my church here. In fact. I am in conflict with most of the other Pastors. I can tell you what our church doctrine is, and why. Because 'clean' conversations involving religion or politics are not really possible. So we direct people to the Bible, send them on their way and grab another, because the final decision to try is up to them. None will know the final judgment until The Day and even my atheist academic colleagues invariably understand and articulate that the Tribulation is upon us this generation. No matter what secular term they use to describe it, no one denies that it is happening. So we cannot waste time trying to discuss whether there is more to GOD than we know. Of course there is. But, again, we aren't able to understand it, so it is not given to us. What IS given to us is everything we NEED.

I trust that you understand, intellectually, why this conversation is not appropriate for the public, and why we choose to present our case in the manner we do. Reading the original title of the thread will give you that. Whether we have remained one of the top five Internet search results for ten years because people believe we are a parody of Christianity or a divine revelation does not concern us. The fact remains that we have sent more people running for a Bible than any other website in History.

Officially, these are our beliefs (from memory...any errors are mine). We did not copyright them and the American Presbyterians have adopted a variation. That's fine with us.

Our statement of belief

We believe the complete KJV1611(Authorized) Bible is the written word of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit and without error in the original manuscripts. We accept that all editions are subject to mechanical errors, but not errors of truth. The Bible is the revelation of God’s truth and is infallible and authoritative in all matters of faith and practice.

We do not believe that lay persons, without a full education and complete knowledge of the Bible and the history surrounding it as well as contemporary documents and historical perspective can develop a full, true, complete and relevant understanding of True Christianity™.

We believe in the Holy Trinity. There is one God, who exists eternally in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

We believe that all are sinners and totally unable to save themselves from God’s displeasure, except by His mercy.

We believe that salvation is by God alone as He sovereignly chooses those He will save. We believe His choice is based on His grace or good works if called by God for His tasks, as God chooses, not on any human individual merit, or foreseen faith.

We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, who through His perfect life and sacrificial death atoned for the sins of all of God's Chosen men who will trust in Him, alone and unto death, for salvation.

We believe that God is gracious and faithful to His people not simply as individuals but as families in successive generations according to His Covenant promises and unforgiving to the unfaithful.

We believe that the Holy Spirit dwells in God’s people and gives them the strength and wisdom to trust Christ and follow Him. We distinguish 'Holy Spirit' from 'soul'.

We believe that Jesus will return, bodily and visibly, to judge all mankind and to receive His warriors to Himself.

We believe that all aspects of our lives are to be lived to the glory of God under the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

Pastor, you have shown yourself to be more welcoming than I would previously have predicted. And I wouldn’t disagree much with your insight that there is a lot spiritually and functionally wrong with the world. Thank you for outlining the LBC core beliefs in that fashion, because it clears a few things up. Key to all of this is the admittance that church members ‘believe’. This is quite a different statement to the claim (much repeated elsewhere) to know and uphold the word of God quite exclusively. You see, once we know that you have chosen to adhere to a set of rules we are able to go into depth on many issues, as you and I are beginning to do here.

But I thought LBC doctrine goes far beyond this, doesn’t it? Or at least I have seen LBC pastors use faulty reasoning to endorse a peculiar brand of licentiousness and antagonism. I am sure the baiting of newcomers is a strategic and well-thought out approach, deployed here to obvious effect. I have seen this in operation. By all means court controversy and rebuke, but do not use ultimate truth as the license. Because once you make such a claim, you will run into all manner of errors and inconsistencies that blight the LOC which I have highlighted.

This is really the nuts and bolts of what I am getting at, although I find it interesting to note that many who seemed eager to join in earlier in the thread have since mysteriously fallen by the wayside. Where are your fellow ‘Senior Theologians’ and serious men of God? You know, the ones who have been granted – or perhaps granted themselves – all those fancy titles, complete with trademarks? Can their absence be explained by the fact that what I have brought up is less palatable to them than viciously attacking a vulnerable 18 year old girl who wishes to explore faith?

I doubt that you understand Landover and how it goes about God’s business. The trademarks and title have their own meaning. I am not commenting because I am listening. Like many more senior members, I retain an open mind and it is good to hear the Pastor’s voice and benefit from his thoughts.

It could be, but it is not. Not all who post here are as they state themselves to be. Your patience in not passing judgement is appreciated.

I'm here, and I've been patiently waiting for your response to this.
