    The Error of KJV-Onlyism

    A standard? In what sense?

    Does Deuteronomy 4:19 teach God gave the nations false gods?

    No, that's not in Scripture anywhere. God does say that He gave over the nations to other beings, but never taught anyone to consider them "gods"; that was their doing, and by that they rebelled against Him. His judgment upon them is declared in Psalm 82.

    What does it mean to be taken away in the spirit when having a vision

    It can mean that one's vision shows them in a different place (like a dream), or it can mean that the person is in a trance- or dream-like state where they are unresponsive to stimuli around them. I've experienced the latter and heard a firsthand testimony of the former.

    The Error of KJV-Onlyism

    You're assuming that the majority of new Christians over the last 400 years read and spoke English. I suggest you do some more homework on that subject.

    Concerning the gift of tongues

    What "many bible scholars agree on," while interesting, is irrelevant when the text does not clearly address the topic. Again, irrelevant, because Paul did not say anything about pagan tongues. Once again, that's not what the text says. The corruption Paul addressed was people speaking in...

    Concerning the gift of tongues

    That is speculation and “adding to Scripture”. You aren’t helping when you’re misrepresenting what the Bible says.

    Methodist Church here in USA.

    GWH used the abbreviation, “my Meth church”. It just sounds odd, even given the context.

    You might want to avoid this particular choice of abbreviation. ;)

    Parable of all the Trees

    Jesus was using literal trees as an illustration. “These things” refers to the things he stated in response to the disciples’ question in verse 7. Just as you may know summer is coming when you see literal trees budding, so when you (the disciples) see “these things” happening (which they did...

    Time for Christians to abandon KFC?

    I believe Popeye's in the States is now using tallow to fry their chicken... much healthier.

    Methodist Church here in USA.

    Curiosity is normal, but do your homework and stay away from a "Catholic" church; their practices are idolatrous and blasphemous. They talk about Jesus but deny the atonement He secured on the cross.

    Presuming on the Blood

    The Christian life should be characterized by both a decreasing amount and decreasing severity (impact) of sin. While "sin is sin" and no sin is inherently "more sinful" than any other sin, the impacts of sin vary greatly. A genuine Christian who has repented of known sin will not lightly commit...

    Time for Christians to abandon KFC?

    For the record, I don't eat KFC anyway, because they use seed oil (toxic) in the fryers. I will only eat deep-fried food if the restaurant uses tallow... and very few do at this point.

    Time for Christians to abandon KFC?

    The linked advertisement is just weird. It encompasses idolatry, human sacrifice, and hints at cannibalism, while appearing to mock Christian baptism. What is clear is that it has almost nothing to do with fried chicken. BELIEVE PART 2 : ALL HAIL GRAVY I would encourage any Christians who...

    Audio Bible vs. Reading the Bible

    Both are commended in Scripture. Jesus says to the Pharisees, “Have you not read the Scriptures?” Also, “Faith comes by hearing, and hearing through the word of God”. Neither is recommended above the other. :)
