A Few Verses for the Wise
During this Sunday morning's sermon at the church I belong to, the assistant pastor preached and used the following text as part of his message. But while he was preaching and came to this text I started thinking about the bible version issue. Who was it that pawned these modern versions onto the Body of Christ causing much confusion (1 Cor 14:33)? Was it the body itself clamoring for an easier to understand bible? Was it the pastors and teachers suggesting an updated Av without those pesky thees and thous? Or was it the farmer teaching his children to read by the old corn stove? The answer is none of the above. The answer is some "we know better than you" scholars; the answer; as James White likes to put it, the informed "Christians" wanted to help us "uninformed" bible believers. Nevertheless, these verses hit their sin on the head:
1 Corinthians 3:18-20
18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written , He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. 20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
Verse of the Day - Romans 10:1
Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.

King James User or King James Believer?
Some time ago we posed a question about whether people are King James Bible users or King James Bible believers. What's the difference? Read the following excerpts from statements of faith on the scriptures. The first is from Mission Peak Baptist Church where the pastor prefers the King James and the latter from HAC Alumni.
"We believe in the verbal, plenary inspiration of the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments and that they compose the entire Word of God. The Scriptures are inerrant, infallible, and God-breathed; and therefore, are the final authority for faith and life. The sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments are the complete and divine revelation of God to man. The Scriptures shall be interpreted according to their normal grammatical-historical meaning. (II Timothy 3:16-17; II Peter 1:20-21)"
"We believe that, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God..." (2 Tim. 3:16) and that "every word of God is pure" (Prov. 30:5). We believe that the 66 books (Old Testament and New Testament) of our English scriptures, which is the King James Bible (1611), were given under the direct supervision and supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit and therefore constitute the perfect, preserved and inspired words of God without any admixture of error (Ps. 12:6,7; Ps. 19:7). We do not subscribe to the heresy that only the "original manuscripts" are inspired and preserved. This Holy Bible is our sole authority for truth for all Christian belief and practice."
Verse of the Day - 2 Chronicles 36:9
Jehoiachin was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.
