This must be the reason why Jim Lincoln keeps posting "Canada says no to the KJV" Sad!!

Isa 44:14 He heweth him down cedars, and taketh the cypress and the oak, which he strengtheneth for himself among the trees of the forest: he planteth an ash, and the rain doth nourish it.
15 Then shall it be for a man to burn: for he will take thereof, and warm himself; yea, he kindleth it, and baketh bread; yea, HE MAKETH A god, and WORSHIPPETH it; he maketh it a GRAVEN IMAGE, and falleth down thereto.
16 He burneth part thereof in the fire; with part thereof he eateth flesh; he roasteth roast, and is satisfied: yea, he warmeth himself, and saith, Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire:
17 And the residue thereof he MAKETH A god, even HIS GRAVEN IMAGE: he falleth down unto it, and WORSHIPPETH it, and PRAYETH UNTO it, and saith, DELIVER ME; for THOU ART MY god.
18 They have not known nor understood: for he hath SHUT THEIR EYES, that they CANNOT SEE; and their hearts, that THEY CANNOT UNDERSTAND"

You mean the children of believers.
Well the Bible does not exclude them, does it? So long as they repent and believe the gospel, otherwise they are no different from other unbelievers.
Or! Shock! Horror! You believe in genealogical privilege, like those who said, "We be Abraham's children".
Doesn't wash with God, though.

God ordained;
"12 And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger, which is not of thy seed." Gen 17

And
"6 Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:
7 Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.
8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.
9 For this is the word of promise" Romans 9.

Excuse the bluntness, but I rather tire of WCF fluffers who imagine themselves somehow spiritual giants who can't be wrong on any little jot or tittle like the mode of baptism or the baptising of unbelieving children

As for your quote, "mode of baptism or the baptising of unbelieving children" unquote, this stems from the unBiblical position of excluding people, by age discrimination, which the Bible does not exclude, namely the children of covenanted parents.

As for Paisley's FPC compromise it does not address the Biblical foundation for both these mode's and interpretations of Scripture and Greek. Whereas other presbyterian churches already baptise adults and babies in the correct Biblical doctrinal method. Paisleys ministers must do a fudge when they come to teach on either method, thus casting doubts where there is no need for them.

The part quote, "I do not find" - is of course true of the reprobates on their way to hell. The reason they cannot find, is because they cannot see.

2 Corinthians 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them."

a) The National (Presbyterian) Church of Scotland ordains openly gay ministers. This is an apostate church

b) Why is it that only women suffer the unpardonable sin when they lead or preach?

b) The "unpardonable sin" is that particular church's disobedience. Today we have a name for it - Liberalism. This is a disease which pollutes churches and nations by removing authority such as God's laws and doctrines, and justice in the courts. The biggest problem we have in authority removal, is the removal of moral standards, which the Liberals have used to allow the abomination of homosexuality to become acceptable.

Thus by removing the Bible you will receive the wrath of God which is described in Romans Chap. 1:18-32. This is what is happening to the Church of Scotland now. The C of E is already in this satanic rut.

As for "judgment" on Scotland ......

Rom 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;"

These SIGNS are already prevalent in western countries therefore the wrath of God is already at work in these nations, including Scotland!

There are many working people who could never afford the high cost of medical care. We know there have been people who lost everything they had trying to pay for medical care. I wouldn't say all people who are not working are lazy either. There are many reasons why people might not have a job. Having a low-paying job, which many people have, does not necessarily ensure you can afford medical care for your family when you and your family are kicked out of the medical plan

Please also note again what I said below:-
"there are so many valid and biblical reasons to criticise apostate liberals subverting the church".
What is the 9th commandment?

"God takes care of HIS Church" is - false witness???

The Church of Scotlands first error was to ditch the Bible, otherwise they wouldn't be in the mess they are in. To accompany the Kirk's mess the nation has followed on in Liberal attitude to God and Scripture. After all why should those outside the church believe in a Book which the so called "church" no longer accepts as the Word and Law of God.

When there are so many valid and biblical reasons to criticise apostate liberals subverting the church why use invalid arguments and arty gas?

Rowan Williams and his Anglican Liberal confusion wouldn't know "orthodox" Christianity from a duck on heat.

They use words and terms only to excuse and sanitise man, his culture, his sins, his perversions and his abominations.

""The credit crunch has led to a crash in the value of Church of Scotland investments by more than £89m in the space of one year.
Such is the looming financial crisis facing the Kirk that as well as cutting ministers stipends or the number of minsters, it is considering abandoning parishes altogether."" (The Herald)

Now correct me if I'm wrong but this does not suggest DISHONESTY on the part of the Democrats - or God forbid - on the part of the President???
Does it...
