Textual Criticism doesn't teach anything. It is a set of practices, not a teacher, preacher, or professor. Personification doesn't work when you're laying blame. It is more likely that a person who is discouraged from studying outside certain narrow parameters will lose trust. I encourage you...

You made an error here. Verses 16-18 identify Jehoram, not Ahaziah, as the son-in-law of Ahab. That shoots down your theory quite thoroughly. 16 And in the fifth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Jehoshaphat being then king of Judah, Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah...

"Bible believer"? Instead of using high-sounding words with insulting insinuations, you should just say "KJV-onlyists". At least that would be honest. Your premise, however, would remain fallacious. Streeeeeeetch... *pop* Not a chance. There are far too many matching details in both accounts...

Tongs as shown are useful for ”roundish” objects that aren’t heavy or slippery. Sweet potato chunks are in, saucy chicken legs are out. When someone comes up with tongs with teeth, I may invest in a few sets.

Playing games with words is not a sound debating technique.

You really should read more carefully.

Neither. The Earth is an oblate spheroid.

Shhhh... don't tell him the truth... you might burst his flat bubble!

I opened the thread just to see what this silliness was... and I was pleasantly surprised. Thanks for the analogy! :)

I stand corrected. My apologies.

In a word, no. I believe that the "last days" that Peter spoke of took place around AD 70. Paul's words can be applied to that time and also to any age since.

You're welcome. I have many reasons for it not being perfect, and I only need one to refute that claim. Have you considered these two verses? A man cannot be two different ages at the same time. The KJV-only crowd offers a rather convoluted justification for this contradiction, but they are...

This is an opinion founded in poor scholarship and careless handling of Scripture, not indisputable fact.

Instead of making several insulting assumptions and bleating endlessly about your preferred translation, why don't you simply ask what he means?

Here's an important difference between us: I wouldn't ask an AI search anything about Christian history, because I wouldn't trust the results to be complete, unbiased, and truthful.

I'd say they were, in fact, successful, as there are users of the latter two. I haven't heard of the KJVER. It does no such thing. Well, as the KJV is demonstrably not the perfect words of God for today, your entire premise is faulty. Your arrogance is unbecoming and your broad-brushing is...

You probably aren't aware of this nuance of English grammar (despite claiming to read the KJV, which has excellent grammar). The way you opened your post, you have identified yourself with the "democratic left". If you did not include the words, "I believe", you would not have done this. You...

I agree with everything you said, though I can't say the way you phrased your post was appreciated. You imply rather strongly that I intentionally excluded the aspects you mentioned. Perhaps next time, assume the best of others. ;)

Blah blah blah. Answer his question first.

So which part of “You are ignoring basic physics “ don’t you understand?
