i aready menchend Easter right
the bunnies and eggs an all that?
k
just sayin
emphasis mine, and yeh i have read the brochure, honest. Eggs and bunnies, bro; fertility rites. K?

Are you reading that in Acts as inferring that Jews celebrated Easter? You said you knew about the other spring festival that occurs around that same time and yet you don't think "pasco" which is of the Chaldean origin, can't be referring to Easter rather than the Jewish Passover from the Greek?

Whenever I say I rely only on the KJV Bible for the meat of His words, sometimes, people label me as a KJVOnylist.

Some of the lies that I have seen hurled against KJV can and has made people go to other Bible versions; thus being persecuted because of the word.

And there is a trend to dismiss all Bible versions and just go learn the Greek and Hebrew and translate from there to get their scripture.

bbyrd009 used to use the KJV before he bought into all those lies to dismiss it and for whatever the reason, all Bible versions. And regardless of the claim to fame in translating Greek and Hebrew as anti-KJVers spout, it hasn't done bbyrd009 any good, now has it?

So as much as people try to shame me for relying only on the KJV, yes, I have been persecuted, but thanks to Jesus Christ, I have been rooted in the truth in His words to not be offended. Just goes to show how much harm anti-KJVonlyism has done for people like bbyrd009.
My understanding of persecution was a sense of being hunted down or pursued.
So do you believe persecution is being disagreed with?

So you believe pasco should be Passover instead of Easter even though the actual Passover is the day before the days of the unleavened bread?

ha but listen to ourself now; a Hebrew or Greek/Aramaic root xlated through the Kyng's Englyshe, to Chinese?
legit translators do not do this imo

And what is your opinion of doing the translation all by yourself?

No. According to Jesus own words, being persecuted is making someone offended because of the world.

Matthew 13:20 But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it; 21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.

Another example of persecution because of the word by which someone are offended and fall away is the false science of the evolution theory. Some fall away from believing the Bible because of that too.

Anybody that wants to believe every anti-KJV lie and wind up like bbyrd009, you all just go right on ahead because the other part of that lie is that he changed the scripture when all you have to do to prove it is a lie is to see the verses are still in there, condemning homosexuality as an abomination.
well tbh i couldnt care less about that...literally...

So hardly any proof of King James changing the scripture.
they are few, and documented; easy to work around. Every xlation involves a pov, yeh?

The accusations of King James being a homosexual are false but again, you have to research it among all the slander on the internet by going to a site that address the accusations reasonably in prov
i suspect he was, but again it is more the appearance, that he was a king alone is sufficient to supply motive, and i applaud him for his work nonetheless; It is a great version imo
the verses condemning homosexuality as an abomination are still in there.
fwiw i wouldnt write your perception of that in stone just yet; those subjects might be understood more symbolically also imo.

there is such a thing as a "homospiritual" (only not in the internet sense), imo, one who follows the estd religion, in our case Cult of Sol but dont tell anyone, "When We All Get to Heaven," and you can sitesearch um sacks in cracks for more on that
Just believe every lie that comes your way, and you will be sorry when you see Jesus face to face.
not sure how that relates to the bunnies and eggs, sorry?
To all Christians reading this; look at what anti-KJVonlyism has done to bbyrd009. No wonder he doubts everything scripture now.

Matthew 13:20 But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it; 21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.

I dare say people are easily offended when they once rely on the KJV and then get offended by all that persecution and fall away as a result, and in more ways than one.
sounds about right

Heaven is real.
the implications there are disturbing to me; you infer a future literal place that may only be attained after death despite I came that you might have life, more abundantly that we are plainly told, more than one way, we can never attain, in the way we imagine; as what we now identify as "self," "John Doe," immortalized next to Zeu um Yah, standing where it should not be

i find them a valuable resource, at least as valuable as an Atheists...ha which i um also value k
And there is a trend to dismiss all Bible versions and just go learn the Greek and Hebrew and translate from there to get their scripture.
why, oh why, do ppl keep saying this?
Hebrew or Whatever ~ English Lexicons are a click away?
Genesis 1:1 Lexicon: In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
and an interlinear is basically same stuff diff format,
Genesis 1:1 Interlinear: In the beginning of God's preparing the heavens and the earth --

why, oh why, rely
on a middle guy?
bbyrd009 used to use the KJV before he bought into all those lies to dismiss it and for whatever the reason, all Bible versions.
i think i have made pain at this point that thtsat is not really the case at all wadr
And regardless of the claim to fame in translating Greek and Hebrew as anti-KJVers spout, it hasn't done bbyrd009 any good, now has it?
HA! good point, maybe
poll! poll! poll!

I’d like to give you my understanding of this scripture. Let’s say I’m a Pharisee in 50 AD, and say Enow is my neighbor and he’s telling my other neighbors I’m in opposition to his religious beliefs, so being I’m a person with social position I send a few of my fellows over to your house one night about 2 am and they put the wupdown on you and your family members. In my opinion you just experienced some tribulation. Now before they leave your home and you in ruin I tell my fellows to be certain and let you know that we’ll be back every Sunday for the rest of your life, now tribulation has become persecution.

So I’m thinking I don’t know of anyone who suffers persecution here in North America, maybe tribulation, but I’m not sure about your area of the world.

I can ask you to discern whether or not, they can actually be considered flaws if it has not changed the truth in His words for you to go astray by.
you would have to rephrase here, sorry.

this is usually a sign al to me that a third pov might be beneficial now
