Now you cannot say you have never seen the word "Word" with a capital W :)

In fact pretty much every translation capitalizes the W. Even the KJV.

So how you can say you have never seen it? Baffling, to say the least.
 
1Pe 1:23 (KJV) Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

All of y’all have been taught that saved and born again are the same thing. That teaching DOES NOT come from the Bible. 1 Peter 1:23 explains how a BELIEVER (not a lost person) is born again.

Act 2:21 (KJV) And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Acts 2:21 explains exactly how a LOST PERSON is saved.

Born again and saved ARE NOT the same thing.

@KJV1611
You limit God by saying he and his power,love,character and truths can ONLY be true in a KJV bible..
That is in error.
We do not nor can not know the mind or will of God!
He is GOD and his will,will be done in reaching a heart that seeks him.

1Co 2:16 (KJV) For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

The mind of Christ is the word of God.

I can only assume from your statement that you don’t believe that a believer has the mind of Christ. Is that what you are accusing me of being silly about.

What does that have to do with anything. I’m not a part of any denomination, I’m a Christian born again by the incorruptible word of God.

No I believe we are to be transformedby the renewing of our minds into a Christ like walk and way of thinking.
Silly is the way you move about in what you think.
I dont doubt that for a minute that you know scripture but do you know Spirit breathed scripture revelation?
Is it enough just to be able to quote the word?
