Just a note....the Focus on the Family presentation is not the John Cleese version. Both are excellent but the FOTF version is much more dramatic with different voices, audio enhancements and sound effects. I think it can hold a groups interest better.

"But silence can be a ravaging worm That feeds on wounds at their sorest" Sad words, but also true..... Great work!

Welcome to CC jOhnneybOy, you have been led to the right place. There are lots of opportunities for interaction here. Pick something of interest and jump in. All good things are from the Father.

Revelation 18:21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.

Welcome AChristian, happy you are here. I look forward to your writings, especially your stories and poetry.

I agree with you....but have no answers.

Focus on the Family has a series of radio theater productions available. I have used their production of The Screwtape Letters in small group presentations and found them to be first-rate. The good thing with Scewtape is you can easily pick-and-choose topics (Letters) to fit your topics and...

John 8:44 You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. Just to be clear.....

Welcome to CC Moriah-Bell. Struggles are difficult to bear and I will pray for you. In my experience we eventually find unexpected blessings in those struggles. I think every Christian secretly wishes for the day of redemption. I remember what happened on Mt. Moriah. Abraham's faith was...

If I surrender my point with the "but" in the KJV (which I am still unwilling to do), does that negate all the other quotes? I am a long way from being convinced my conclusions of an intentional disconnect or division are incorrect. I do agree on the importance of checking the original...

The important issue for me is to teach the WHOLE Bible, not just the parts that support doctrine. I find very little of that happening today and it frightens me.

Yup.....I use both constantly along with a interlinear Greek and Hebrew translations.

The KJV is my reference of choice but ultimately I must go back to the First Testament for my final word. But that's just me!

It appears so to me....

I agree with your post but do not fully understand everything you say. You say "...under the law sins were only covered". I'm not sure I understand what that means. I'm also not sure what you mean with the statement that grace, "...excludes the works of the law". I am not supporting...

My comments were directed to the interpretations presented in various Bible versions and how those are often twisted. The point of the post is the marginalization of Gods word in the first testament. The implication that YHWH is a cold, calculated, unmerciful law giver is simply wrong...

We all know about the, “Father of Lies” and how good he is at his craft. We underestimate him at our peril. His most effective strategy is to use God’s own words to deceive. One of the passages he twists to separate us from God is John 1:17: “For the law was given by Moses, but...

There is a very good book written by Ann Wroe titled Pontius Pilate. Which goes into great detail about the life of Pilate and his rule in Judaea. I don't think there is any question about your conclusion.

Luke 15:10 Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth. (KJV)

I fell in love with this poem a few years ago. I also found it interesting that in the early schools in the US students were taught to read with this poem and nearly every student knew it by heart.
