1 Corinthians 1:10 "Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the SAME thing, and that there be NO divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the SAME mind and in the SAME judgment."but for those who bring in contentions contrary to the doctrine of Christ: Revelation 17:6 "And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration." |

Isaiah 35:3
"STRENGTHEN ye the weak hands, and CONFIRM the feeble knees. (4) Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you. (5) THEN the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. (6) THEN shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert. (7) And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes. 8. And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, THOUGH FOOLS, shall not err therein. (9) No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there: (10) And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away."The Lord expects us to do every man according to his ability: his austerity is concerning his word. |

San Jose John, are you a clergyman funded by the tithe of wealthy people? My brother (for whatever amount of grace he has for us to thank God for), is not born-again and baptized, nor hangs out in any place where people receive and mature in the Holy Ghost, where they communicate with everybody that God brings to them. My brother has worked very much to provide for his own (would kill himself before robbing widows), but now has no job, and goes to local college; he tends to his four children while his wife works many hours for a little. They receive food stamps, and family aid, and yet, face forklosure, which has been narrowly missed for while now. Tell me again, what is that excellent thing that you do unto the brethren, that you would have done to yourself if that was YOU? (we know you do not make so many bad decisions in life, but we are no man's judge) Is it to cleave to this status quo, and let however many fall off, fall off, or would you feel like me, that it is not fit to receive tithes of the wealthy by reason of their excess, which is clearly shipwrecking society? Who comes to the Church with a request, and does not first have an errand to the Lord? As for ME, I will not touch a thing, not willing to meddle with more crucial accommodations (assuming they are). |

What about the poor brethren, who are already converted, San Jose John? Can we not make a distinction between the Lord's supper, and dealing out of the tillage of the poor? I speak in the mind that, the poor brethren are equals in the Church, and are not to be dismissed to go sit under a footstool. Yet, I get no engagement of fellowship, nor an ear to hear my voice, as to communicate with my needs (which is more of brotherhood) in such environs: even less to attend the congregation and hear a good lengthy reading of the Scriptures. Now, if anyone wants to resort to despiteful use, in order to support the iniquity of their own heart, then what is lacking of the word of God being put into their hearing that they are so emboldened? I am very confident that there is nothing lacking within the Scriptures, or within even a very short conversation with a man of God. |

Far be it to let someone starve to death, or to suffer children to be malnourished, or to let any go hungry while they go to the strenuous work of pulling themselves up by the bootstraps: but no, it is not considered to be all that the righteous may do, neither the sole deed that one may obtain forgiveness of sins (though manifest love is able to cover a multitude of sins). Of course, according to the height of hypocrisy, one like myself might rather not touch anything that be their's at all, if God so willed. After all, Christians are supposed to NOT have ought of anything, as if it is their own: yet among a thousand churches, I would have to commit an act of robbery in order to do them service! |

Jesus Christ the Lord indicated that there's a difference between the righteous man's reward, and the prophet's reward, perhaps because the prophet should not expect that the righteous man will take to everything that the LORD his God called his fellow to abide in. If any man that is called a brother wants to go beyond, and condemn the guiltless, and put his brethren to nought, and wants to cite offences contrary to the gospel, then that man sins without the body: he will bear his own reproach. Now, Holy Hip Hop has many good examples of what the prophets can do: but much is also vain. As the Lord's voice divideth the flames of fire, and the Lord maketh his ministers a flame of fire, so can men prophesy over minstrels, piano keys, tabrets or stringed instruments, or dubplates; yet it is out of the abundance of anyone's heart, that we speak, reguardless. If it be not with battles of shaking, bold and sharp, it does not minister to my needs, just like when they make Jesus into lovely songs with pleasant voices, but their hearts go after their covetousness. |

These troubles have forced these states -- as well as many others -- to raise taxes, lay off or furlough state workers and slash services. These actions can slow down the nation's recovery, especially since these 10 states account for one-third of the country's population and economic output. Looks like we're burnin' from both ends now, seeing that there is no sabbath year for man, beast, and land.Isaiah 28:12
"This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear." Jeremiah 34:14
"At the end of seven years let ye go every man his brother an Hebrew, which hath been sold unto thee; and when he hath served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee: but your fathers hearkened not unto me, neither inclined their ear...(v.17) Therefore thus saith the LORD; Ye have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every one to his brother, and every man to his neighbour: behold, I proclaim a liberty for you, saith the LORD, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth." However necessary or unnecessary, willingly or unwillingly, one can not work and fast at the same time. |

Re Jim Lincoln: you are known well for what you apologize for and against, perhaps because of how many times you repeat it.I was not suggesting that we be any otherwise minded than that of the gospel of Christ. The sore reality is that while the men who keep the law(s) shall live in them, we also must admit that there would not be an executioner, nor a prison keeper, nor an officer if there was no money to pay them (or what is contributed to society that is so profitable?). It is pitiful, how that our government has framed mischief within sets of laws, so that while many profit thereby, others are disposed of as merchandise and numbers and statistics, and the pressure is indiscriminate but how much money is there to cushion the person. Every potential criminal would rather report that God is in you of a truth, and would have run to turn themselves in to the authorities, before they would repeat their old offenses, if they actually dwelt in the land of righteousness, or if God began to show himself as a God of judgment in the earth: then they would learn doctrine. If we did as Peter said, to honor all men, the baser criminals would repent, and our prominent would loath to do crimes, to the point that if they did, they would confess a accept to be punished. |

Here we have a most corrupt society, but hey, a system wherewith to execute bloody men is brought to perfection all right. Surely the bodies of these men will they kill, but, not to the glory of God, or to the end of evil: nay, Satan was none affected. No doubt, the blood of every slain soul, guilty or innocent, shall be required at the hands of the hypocrites who serve MYSTERY BABYLON, who disallow a perfect society and government with their persistent and warmongering vanity.Jeremiah 48:10
"Cursed be he that doeth the work of the LORD deceitfully, and cursed be he that keepeth back his sword from blood." (that sword that proceeds from your lips, which is your WORD, for all those of you who seem to be blind) |

Re: Guiness. I am not ignorant, neither inferior in the knowledge you ask me to state. We can sum it up in these words: There is nothing new under the sunne. If those things proved to be detrimental to the work of translation, then such would comprise "another gospel", and I might well bear with them if I were respecting persons, or sitting scornfully in a sense of self-righteousness.Your fault-finding was for my publishing (as I do everywhere) that the Translators did not make a false draft of the Holy Bible, as many of you do falsely allege, saying they were politically manipulated: and you yet find fault, even though I based my single minded conclusion on a full-sized document weighty with well-reasoned learning, which conclusion I arrived at as consistent with the signs that Lord wrought around my life at the time I found them: I sought not the praise of men, nor to give the praise to men, but God. No doubt my appeal is to expedite the complexity of issues and endlesse complaints, to bring into captivity to the plain speech of Scripture, and to cast out unprofitable debate (for what end? to what persuasion?), so that our mutual faith is established because the only wise God is beholden to perform it: and I firmly believe God is beholden to the King James Bible. |

Neil wrote:
It is indeed silly, that you didn't bother to select "in context" at that webpage to verify you were not mistakenly citing verses discussing Moses & Synagogues. Nor did you address my counterexamples from elsewhere in Geneva's Acts.
This has nothing to do with Replacement Theology. It does not? Way to swallow up the matter in one bite, for both of us, Neil. I also understood that there was probably more than one reason why the Translators did not put "congregation" in Acts 7:38 and Hebrews 12:23, as did the Puritans (seeing that it is such a small difference, really). |

Neil: here's a link I found, featuring two verses, Acts 7:38 and Hebrews 12:23, in a concordance lookup of 'congreagation' in the Geneva Bible.http://www.studylight.org/desk/?l=en&query=congregation§ion=2&translation=gen&oq=Genesis%25201&new=1&nb=mt&ng=1&ncc=1 Guiness said
"If refusing to indulge your subjective anachronism causes you unjustified offense then, sadly, so be it. I have tried to explain to you." Doubtless my point ought to be well taken, and no offense contrary to Scripture on either side. My point was good, being reflective of the Translators trembling, non-political attitude, in the sight of God and man. You say it is not relevant, whereas all I was saying was for you to count me in agreement with the Translators, who I have no reason to accuse of un-Christian/selfish/political motives, reguardless of King James I's person. |

Guiness said
"...Your subjective comment about your supposedly apolitical self is irrelevant to the historical question."Heh, only as relevant as you want to take from "one of the least of these" supposed members. I have read about your mention, here, in the 6th paragraph of 'Translators To The Reader' "But besides all this, they were the principall motives of it, and therefore ought least to quarrel it (the work): for the very Historicall trueth is (being one), that upon the importunate petitions of the Puritanes, at this Majesties (power that be ordained by God) comming to this Crowne, the Conference at Hampton Court having bene appointed for hearing their complaints....." Guiness said
"No, the translators' point was that they were using "ecclesiastical" / churchy words over against a straightforward and simple translation advocated by some of the wiser Puritans....." Nay, nay. The 11th paragraph of the 'Translators' sets it out clearly that they avoided the "scrupilositie of the Puritanes, who leave (that is, depart from) the olde Ecclesticall words, and betake them to other...."(to serve their own turn) in addition to avoiding the "obscuritie of the Papists". The Geneva Bible, held by the Puritans is the version that puts "Congregation instead of Church" |

This was a simple political device by a man who decided in his own "infinite" wisdom to have a new Conservative version written for his own ends. Let not my fair and honorable brother say so. If this were true, to say the KJV was drafted on political bias, and it is not rather making a slander and heresy (presumption going forth at best), then what do you do with us who have not a political bone in our body? we cannot abide the broken looking glasses and hireling voices, as we compared them to the Word of the Lord we received when we were sealed with the Spirit of Promise. Do not write off the Translators as thieves of your Church (there's only one real Church), for doing the king's bidding in all things you accuse here "for his own ends" (we have knowledge, and are not ignorant of Satan's devices), if all the things were done in order and good conscience, not feeling any evil thing (by the Spirit in them) for keeping the word of the LORD: lest they handle the Word of God deceitfully (to their own destruction). They cleared themselves very well from such jarring imputations. In your quote, the Translators explained they were using the original words, which the Puritans departed from in order to put their own stamp in the Bible). |

Perhaps you would know this if you were not content to blindly follow the KJVO cult.... Hey Robert, as one who believes the prophet of the Lord, I myself take heed to not trust in any brother, neither in any guide, and I need not a man to teach me. You continue to cast it into your teeth that we should have a seared conscience for cleaving to the King James Bible, all while we seek not the pre-eminence, but rather, our hands cleave to it, and we continuously prop it up, that victory may come to the Saints, fearing God to do otherwise. |

Robert, we all know that people that make a cult behave themselves contrary to wisdom, whose end is according to their works. In fact, any congregation that is not like unto the Saints at Jerusalem behaves like a cult. How about above all sinners in the land? I would not have jumped right in to accuse you to be such just for speaking what you believe (though the Kingdom of God is in power). How else can I persuade you, that you have sided wrongly by creating the schism, in the wrested conceit that the Translators would give place to breaking the Word of God itself, and add and subtract from the Scriptures, and authorize confusion? And that is just at the root of all of our works, which shall be judged by one consistent, sound-minded, Gospel. |

Robert, I would have you to be certified that beyond a doubt the Translators were setting upon the very deed of all prayer and supplication, and that there was nothing lacking, when God made it ready to their hands, to even take of the extracts of the various works that had gone before, and to even make them a pillar in the house of God (which we are) by using them in their work: and indeed there was nothing lacking as they also had the Precedent set before them, which came in no other version but of the Levitical priesthood and Christian Church, even the Original Greek and Hebrew. |
