Aye, did not king james burn the first Baptist? Remember, our ancestors fled the church of England and came to America! Establishing her as the first free
country!

Also, one of his right-hand men, Lancelot Andrewes (chief editor of the 1611 A.V.), an Anglo-Catholic, was responsible for the imprisonment and death of several Puritans. One of them was named Henry Barrow, who was put to death for refusing to recant his position. |

And this is, of course, the problem when Church and State are considered one and the same because then rejection of one becomes treason.

And to think some people here in the US are clamoring for an Independent Fundamentalist Baptist theocracy.

Do you guys even believe in the Bible? Are you believers? Give me scripture to prove me wrong...oh, you can't. Good day all. You have seen the last of
me...for it is evident you guys are not even saved! Repent, and believe God while you still have time. When you see the Lord you will answer for all your deeds
which you have ungodly committed. That is the truth.

Yes, I believe the Bible. No, I don't believe your fallible, erroneous interpretation of the Bible. If that scripture meant what you want it to mean, then
everything that every king has ever done personally or ordered to be done by others must be considered "perfect". Do you believe this is the case?

Until then, don't go away mad - just go away.

Hey jerry - bullying us with the "God is gonna get yuh" tactic doesn't work when you announce you're leaving in a huff. Oh - and bye.

gconan wrote:JerryRose is also at that site. He wussed outta a debate with me that HE requested, much in the manner that "Doulon"(Marty Shue) did on that same board. All JR does on that board now is mindlessly post Scriptures that don't really apply to the themes of the threads he posts it on. Please notice on the "Steelmaker" thread on that site I hammered his goofiness with both scripture from the KJV and secular history. I reminded him that HENRY VIII actually COMMANDED that the "Great Bible' be made, while KJ merely gave his permission to the Anglican clergy to go ahead & make a new translation. {The 14 rules the AV translators were to follow, that were attributed to KJ were actually made by ARCHBISHOP RICHARD BANCROFT, who got KJ to approve them.) I reminded him that, ACCORDING TO HIS OWN STANDARDS, that the "Great Bible' should be his version of choice. I hammered him by showing him that "Easter" in the KJV's Acts 12:4 and "the love of money is THE root of ALL evil" in 1 Tim. 6:10 are goofs, as well as the KJV's omission of the words"through our Lord Jesus Christ, before all time" in Jude 25. Please note his responses. Also, note that he and "Bibleprotector" are at loggerheads over which KJV edition is the "perfect" one. Don'tcha just LOVE IT when two kooks disagree over some goofy man-made theory? Shoot, NEITHER of them can come close to sealing with the fact that the KJVO myth has ABSOLUTELY NO SCRIPTURAL SUPPORT!
