    THE FAKE KJV ONLY ARGUMENT

    In sharing Bible scripture and memories I was also reminded of the less than ideal people who can come across our way. All within the same mental state of mind! I hate that can be a case! When shaking a family tree one has to be careful not to shake too hard! There can be some bad apples as well...

    THE FAKE KJV ONLY ARGUMENT

    Lao-Tzu said... "Sages have no strange clothes or weird behavioral patterns." In Christianity I have run into, "weird behavioral patterns" my share of times. It does not seem to come from doctrine, bible versions, or teaching. It seems like people were just born that way, or brought up under a...

    Wondering, though, if Mary remained an actual virgin.

    THE FAKE KJV ONLY ARGUMENT

    All I have read is the KJV. No regrets! I must admit, though, that the Strongs Hebrew and Greek are handy additions.

    Who were the “brothers” of Jesus?

    Mary - Why did not the Lord's brother's take her? She seemed without family... I would imagine Joseph long ago passed away and the Lord's half brothers may not have been blood kin at all. 25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas...

    AN UNKNOWN TONGUE

    Well... As far as we are concerned... Go away! There are plenty of funeral homes out there for you to do your worship in!

    AN UNKNOWN TONGUE

    If God is truly with you the fruits of him will be made evident. The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. - Galatians 5 People will be glad... They will be happy.... Take away the Holy...

    Please let me know what church you attend so I will know to avoid it.

    AN UNKNOWN TONGUE

    But... If the actual Holy Spirit is not there we wouldn't want you or your women speaking in tongues anyway.

    AN UNKNOWN TONGUE

    Quench not the Spirit. - 1 Thessalonians 5:19 Picture some pharisee type figure dousing a whole church service with cold water.

    AN UNKNOWN TONGUE

    I fear a church like you would recommend is an all reason church. Where God can't get a spiritual blessing in there edgewise!

    AN UNKNOWN TONGUE

    If that is the kind of church you prefer to dwell in there is plenty of them around. Arrogance rather than Unction... But... It is all yours!

    AN UNKNOWN TONGUE

    Yes I did. Noting... The whole service was not speaking in tongues. And not in every service is there speaking in tongues. And this was only in a brief part of the service. But in every service there is a sermon.

    AN UNKNOWN TONGUE

    The service was progressing as normal The lady spoke in tongues There was no one to interpret So she sat down and kept quite The service progressed into the sermon or prophecy part And ended with the benediction Nothing wrong! Glad the Spirit was thinking of us!

    AN UNKNOWN TONGUE

    Apparently neither does yours! Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues. - 1 Corinthians 14:39 Forbid not to speak with tongues. Forbid not to speak with tongues. Forbid not to speak with tongues.

    AN UNKNOWN TONGUE

    Nobody... So she sat down. At least we had some Spirit in the church! Better than some of the graveyards with preachers from Theological Cemeteries that I have been to!
