Where exactly do we go to find that Bible in the original 'Greek, Hebrew and Arminian', Jim?
Don't post a link. Please tell me in YOUR own words. Where is it? Do you have a copy? Is it in a museum? In the vatican? Does Gil Rugh keep a copy in his office? Does Ankerberger have one at home? Where can I find it? You sound so sure of yourself. Surely you must know where on earth that original 'Greek, Hebrew and Arminian' text is. Share with us.
Then your Non Denominational brother needs to lower his Non Denominational standard of living and/or get a second job. That's exactly what I suggest be done. It's not his wife's responsibility to make the money and support the family. It's his.
Her name on the show was Karen Moore. She went skeet shooting with Andy.
Scripture tells us that Christian women are to be 'chaste, discreet, keepers at home' (Titus 2.5). To do otherwise is to blaspheme God's Word (also Titus 2.5). In the garden, God told Adam he would have to work to earn his way, not the woman. I didn't say it, God did. Do you think it's OK for Christian women to blaspheme God's word, Yurich? I don't mean worldly women. I mean Christian women. There is a difference.
You won't hear men discuss this much because most men like the idea of a woman out earning them a living. Makes life easier and pays for their toys. But the Bible is very clear on the subject. Don't argue with me. Argue with God. And read your Bible, Yurich. Stop making up stuff as you go along. What your niece does is irrelevant. What God's Word says is what matters.
As much as I've enjoyed watching The Andy Griffith Show thru the years, it did lay the TV foundation for the modern, rebellious, feminist, working business heifer with Ellie, Helen Crump and that big mouthed blonde, all of whom portrayed Andy's girlfriends.
Because in the Old Testament God destroyed the Sodomites and even ordered their homes destroyed. With good reason. In the New Testament, Paul (in Romans 1) uses the sin of sodomy as a measuring stick for levels of depravity and reprobation. It's a sin so horrid that it doesn't only bring judgment on individuals but nations as well.
Even if I were not a Christian and had no idea of God's opinion of and judgment on those who engage in sodomy, I would find the thought of it so disgusting and filthy that I still wouldn't do business with companies that actively support it.
Of all sins imaginable, commiting sodomy is the one that actually flies in the face of God's creation and design.
I have no problem with 'unbelieving merchants'. I would imagine most are. But I will not under any circumstances do business with any person or business that pushes a sodomite agenda. That would mean me helping pay for it. Sadly, JC Penney has tried it's best to cram it down our throats (no pun intended) over the past six months.
I threw out all of our Cheerios when I read this and went and bought Corn Flakes (Kellogg's) instead. No more General Mills anything for me.
Hitting them in their quarterly earnings is the only thing these folks understand. Just ask JC Penney. In case you didn't know, last week they fired the guy who's been pushing their sodomite friendly agenda because their sales were so bad and they are losing their family customer base.
Christians have historically focused on the sin of sodomy for two primary reasons: 1) Paul uses it as a measuring stick for degrees of sin and reprobation in Romans chapter 1 and 2), It brings God's harshest, judgment and destruction on both nations and individuals.
It's not the sin of being a so-called 'homosexual' that causes the problem. That's insinuating that you can indeed be 'born that way'. It is the act of sodomy and it's widespread acceptance that brings God's judgment.
Christians should continue to focus on the sin of sodomy. It is destroying America.
Why do you folks talk to Lincoln? He is worse than useless. And that's not hyperbole. He can't just read whatever his (per)version of choice is. He insists on doing his best to undermine your faith in yours (partly because he's too daft to understand it himself).
Ask yourself: Why would a man who appears to have such disdain for the KJV spend so much time villifying it if he really didn't believe it was powerful? Why is he not content to let you read your AV and he read his whatever? Why is he so obsessed that he turns every thread on SA into a diatribe against God's Word? Why waste his time (for years now!)? And exactly what book does he consider to be God's inerrant Word in the English language? Allow me to answer that one: NONE OF THEM.
Why does anybody care what Al Mohler says, thinks or does? Why does Al Mohler feel compelled to comment on everything and why does the whole world seem to be so interested? WHO CARES? Same goes for Rick Warren, John Piper, RC Sproul, Rob Bell or anybody else. Who are they? What makes their opinion so important? How on earth did I get along for 50 years without hearing what silly Al Mohler thinks about something? Good grief. Study your Bible. It's crystal clear on God's opinion of sodomites and His is the only one that counts. I can assure you that He doesn't want them mingling among His elect. Al Mohler and his opinion are both irrelevant.
