LIBERAL EMERGING LEADERS EMBRACE EVOLUTIONARY SPIRITUALITY (Friday Church News Notes, December 31, 2010, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) -

There is a growing movement toward the integration of evolution and religion. Most Roman Catholics, including the Pope, hold a theistic evolutionary view, and it is very popular among New Agers. With the discovery of the complexity of the living cell through modern microbiology, it has become increasingly evident that some sort of God was involved in life, but not wanting to submit to the holy God of the Bible, men are forced to create a god of their own invention. In fact, most “Christians” in America already worship an idol rather than the true and living God. Many worship the non-judgmental god of The Shack, and many worship the mythical god of evolution. From December 4 through January 14 “evolutionary evangelist” Michael Dowd is hosting live panels of “preeminent Christians on the leading edge of science and religion” to promote theistic evolution (“Emergent Church Leaders Promote Evolutionary Spirituality,” CrosstalkBlog, Dec. 23, 2010). Dowd, who travels the country preaching “the gospel of billions of years,” has a sticker on his van depicting the Jesus and Darwin fishes kissing. It’s a false Jesus, of course, because the Christ of the Bible authenticated Genesis 1-11 as literal history (e.g., Matthew 19:4-5; 23:35: Mark 13:19; Luke 11:50-51; 17:26-32). Dowd says evolutionary spirituality is where “mythic beliefs and measurable reality collide.” The mythic beliefs are supposedly found in the Bible, whereas the measurable reality is evolutionary science. The truth is exactly the opposite. Among the 38 “Catholics, Protestants, Evangelicals, Pentecostals, and Progressives” joining Dowd are emergent leaders Sally Morgenthaler, Spencer Burke, Doug Pagitt, and Brian McLaren. We have documented the unbelief of these individuals in our book What Is the Emerging Church? Two other members of Dowd’s evolutionary spirituality discussion are Matthew Fox, who is so outrageous in his New Age theology that he was actually kicked out of the Catholic Church (see our book The New Age Tower of Babel), and John Spong, retired Episcopalian bishop and arch-heretic who denies the virgin birth, blood atonement, bodily resurrection, and ascension of Jesus Christ. Actually, the existence of these “preeminent Christians” in our day is irrefutable evidence of the divine inspiration of Scripture, for the Scripture described them perfectly in a 2,000-year-old prophecy. “But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of” (2 Peter 2:1-2).


CREATIONIST WINS PRESTIGIOUS SCIENCE AWARD (Friday Church News Notes, December 31, 2010, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) -

Naturalistic evolutionists such as Richard Dawkins claim that faith in God hinders “real” science, but the ridiculousness of this position is evident from the fact that most of the founders of modern science believed in the God of the Bible and many of them held to a biblical six-day creation. Further, there are hundreds of scientists today who believe in that same God. An example is Dr. Andy McIntosh, professor of thermodynamic and combustion theory at the University of Leeds in England. A team of engineers, headed by Dr. McIntosh, received the Outstanding Contribution to Innovation and Technology title at the Times Higher Education awards in November in London. They are studying the beetle’s incredibly complicated and amazing defense mechanism that consists of a toxic steam it can blast up to eight inches through an aim-able turret. A news report says the research “could inspire new types of nebulisers, needle-free injections, fire extinguishers and powerful fuel injection systems” (“Scientist Wins Prestigious Research Award,” BBC, Dec. 22, 2010). This research represents the rapidly growing field of biomimetics, wherein men learn from the design of nature. Dr. McIntosh, who is a creationist, said, “I believe there is much more of nature’s secrets that we could learn from our great Creator if we looked with an eye to see design. ... it was such an experiment and entrepreneurial spirit that led Wilbur and Orville Wright 107 years ago this month, to successfully copy the wing control of birds and so fly a warp wing controlled flying machine to fly along Kitty Hawk beach, in North Carolina” (The Times 2010 award website). Answers in Genesis observes: “So much for those secularists who continually claim that real scientists can’t be creationists. Dr. McIntosh has spoken for AiG many times in the UK on creation, plus his own speaking engagements all over the world.”


CHINA BANS ENGLISH WORDS IN ALL PUBLICATIONS (Friday Church News Notes, December 31, 2010, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) -

The communist state of China has banned the use of English words in all publications, including newspapers, books, and websites. The General Administration of Press and Publication “said the increasing use of English words and abbreviations in Chinese texts had caused confusion and was a means of ‘abusing the language’” (“China Bars English,” Breitbart, Dec. 22, 2010). Communism has never been a friend of liberty. Those who praise China need to go and live there. There is no freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of press, freedom of association. The state controls every detail of the citizen’s lives, including where they can live, what they can believe, what they can look at on the Internet, and how many children they can have. Under communism, you can do whatever you want to as long as it is in accordance with the will of the state. People have flooded to America from every part of the world for two centuries for the very fact that it has been a bastion of human liberty. Today those liberties, which were purchased at great cost, are rapidly being removed as a judgment of God on the nation’s wickedness and unbelief.


MUSLIMS RAID CHURCHES IN INDONESIA
(Friday Church News Notes, December 31, 2010, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) -

The following is excerpted from “Islamists Raid,” Compass Direct News, Dec. 18, 2010: “About 200 demonstrators from hard-line Islamic organizations in West Java on Sunday (Dec. 12) disrupted the worship of a church in Rancaekek district, Bandung, driving more than 100 worshippers from the building. Members of the Islamic Defenders Front, the Indonesian Ulama Forum and the Islamic Reformist Movement arrived with the Civil Service Police Unit of Rancaekek district and sealed the house, thus leaving other churches that use it without a worship venue. The protestors also disrupted the worship of six other churches meeting in homes the same day. ... ‘Because they were fearful, children and women were crying when they came out of their place of worship,’ the Rev. Badia Hutagalung told Compass by phone. ... Hutagalung said the church was using the house because it had not been able to obtain permission to establish a church building under conditions imposed by Indonesian law. The Joint Ministerial Decree promulgated in 1969 and revised in 2006 requires places of worship to obtain the approval of at least 60 persons from the local community, mandates there be at least 90 church members, and the church must be approved by the the village head.”


EUROPEAN COURT HOLDS ABORTION IS NOT A RIGHT
(Friday Church News Notes, December 31, 2010, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) -

The following is excerpted from Americans United for Life, Dec. 16, 2010: “Abortion proponents’ efforts to make abortion a “right” in Europe were thwarted today when the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights held that the European Convention on Human Rights contains no “right” to abortion. The Court rightly found that matters relating to abortion should be left to the member states’ own domestic laws. The Court dismissed two of the plaintiffs’ health-based claims in A, B, C v. Ireland because it found no right had been violated under the Convention. In the remaining woman’s situation, the Court stated that Ireland needs to take steps to better comply with its own domestic laws. ‘The Court’s ruling that abortion is not a right under the Convention is a victory for those who value the sanctity of all innocent human life,’ AUL Senior Vice President and Senior Counsel William Saunders stated.”


DARK SKIN NO LONGER A CURSE IN ONLINE BOOK OF MORMON
(Friday Church News Notes, December 31, 2010, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) -

The following is excerpted from Religious Dispatches Magazine, Dec. 17, 2010: “Chapter headings in the online version of the Book of Mormon have been changed by LDS Church officials, eliminating vestiges of racist theology that linked dark skin to spiritual accursedness. One changed chapter heading appears in 2 Nephi, chapter 5. Old version: ‘Because of their unbelief, the Lamanites are cursed, receive a skin of blackness, and become a scourge to the Nephites.’ New online version: ‘Because of their unbelief, the Lamanites are cut off from the presence of the Lord, are cursed, and become a scourge unto the Nephites.’ A second changed chapter heading appears in Mormon, chapter 5. Old version: ‘The Lamanites shall be a dark, filthy, and loathsome people.’ New online version: ‘Because of their unbelief, the Lamanites will be scattered, and the Spirit will cease to strive with them.’ ... The Book of Mormon [previously] taught that the phenotypical features of Lamanites--their dark skin--came about as a consequence of unrighteousness. ... [The] summary chapter headings were added in the 1920s and revised in the 1980s by Bruce R. McConkie, author of Mormon Doctrine... In 1981, the Church changed the language of 2 Nephi 30: 6 to remove the statement that Lamanites who repented would become a ‘white and delightsome’ people, substituting instead the phrase ‘pure and delightsome.’”


JIMMY CARTER THINKS U.S. READY FOR “GAY” PRESIDENT
(Friday Church News Notes, December 31, 2010, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) -

Former president Jimmy Carter has stated that America is ready for a homosexual president. Speaking with the website Big Think, Carter said: “I think the entire population has come tremendous strides forward in dealing with the issue of gays. I don’t know about the next election, but I think in the near future, because step by step we have realized that this issue of homosexuality has the same adverse and progressive elements as when we dealt with the race issue” (“Jimmy Carter,” Daily Mail, Dec. 17, 2010). Carter meant this as a positive thing, but from a biblical perspective it is merely a sign of the end times. Christ said: “Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; but the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed” (Luke 17:28-30). Peter said that the sin of Sodom was their “filthy conversation” (2 Peter 2:6-8). Jude says it was “fornication, and going after strange flesh” (Jude 7). For this the city was judged by God and set forth in Scripture as a warning to all men: a warning that is being ignored today.


HOMOSEXUALITY A STENCH IN THE NOSTRILS OF GOD
(Friday Church News Notes, December 31, 2010, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) -

The following is from Christian Newswire, Dec. 19, 2010: “After delivering 205,000 fax petitions to Congress against open homosexual service in the military, Chaplain Gordon James Klingenschmitt had this to say about the Senate's 65-31 vote to force open homosexual aggression upon our troops by repealing ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’: ‘A chaplain friend of mine asked God this week, 'why do you allow evil to grow in America, and open homosexuality to be forced upon our military?' To which God answered him from Psalm 92:7: 'When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is so that they shall be destroyed forever.’ Homosexual sin will always be a stench in the nostrils of Almighty God, an abomination which God condemns and shall punish with everlasting destruction. Even if the Senate had voted 100 to 0 to legalize sin, they could not remove God from His throne of Judgment, before which every knee shall bow, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.”


SECOND PREACHER AWARDED DAMAGES FOR WRONGFUL ARREST FOR PREACHING AGAINST HOMOSEXUALITY
(Friday Church News Notes, December 31, 2010, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) -

The following is excerpted from The Christian Post, Dec. 20, 2010: “Christian street preacher Dale Mcalpine is to receive more than $10,000 in damages after police in Cumbria, England, admitted wrongful arrest, unlawful imprisonment and a breach of his human rights. Mcalpine, 42, was arrested in April by Cumbrian police in his home town of Workington after he mentioned that homosexuality was among the sins listed in the Bible. His comments were not made in his main public sermon but in response to a question about homosexuality posed to him by a passerby. He was arrested by PC Craig Hynes for a ‘racially aggravated’ offense under Section 5 of the Public Order Act and, after being detained at the station for more than seven hours, was charged with using ‘threatening, abusive or insulting’ words ‘to cause harassment, alarm or distress.’ The charges were later dropped. The arrest sparked fears for freedom of speech among Christians and was even criticized by prominent gay rights campaigner Peter Tatchell. According to the Christian Institute, which funded Mcalpine’s legal defense, Cumbrian police have accepted that they acted unlawfully. Mcalpine said he was pleased the case had been settled without going to court. ... The settlement comes just weeks after Birmingham County Court awarded street preacher Anthony Rollins more than $6,000 in damages after the judge upheld his claims of wrongful arrest.”


GOD’S HAZARDOUS WASTE EXPERTS
(Friday Church News Notes, December 31, 2010, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) -

The following is excerpted from Creation Moments, November 10, 2010: “The environment naturally produces hazardous waste without human help. Ashes from a wood fire can contain enough naturally occurring radioactivity to merit a hazardous waste classification. Uranium and other radioactive elements occur naturally in the environment and can be dissolved in ground water. Chloro fluorocarbons, manufactured for refrigeration, are also spewed from volcanoes. Also called CFCs, these chemicals are thought by some scientists to degrade the Earth's ozone layer. The fact is, nature produces more hazardous waste than man does. Since hazardous waste is a natural part of the creation, one might expect a well designed creation to have the ability to process hazardous materials into harmless substances. Science is beginning to discover how the Creator has designed the creation to deal with this problem. Scientists have learned how several bacteria decontaminate water that carries dissolved uranium. One species of bacterium combines the phosphate in the water with the uranium to make uranium phosphate crystals. These crystals are stored harmlessly in the bacterium. Another species uses enzymes to make uranium ore that then settles harmlessly out of the water. Another species has been discovered that breaks down CFCs. The creation is indeed well designed. In fact, the Creator's solutions to hazardous waste will help us learn how to clean up the messes we make.”

[1611kingjamesbible] This Week's Verse is Revelation 22:21

This is a wonderful weekly email to get.

It only gives one verse in Scripture as it is in the King James Bible as well as the many counterfeit versions.



This is a serious issue and no Christian can take the corruption of God's Word lightly. The modern versions are under girded with Gnostic corruptions in their manuscripts, corrupted as far back as the 2nd century. This is not a question of version versus version, it is a major element in spiritual warfare and Christians can no longer stick their head in the sand. Each week you will receive a verse which is compared in the KJB and several modern versions. You will see first hand how wide spread the corruption is in all the modern versions. In fact, you will see how the modern versions agree with the New World Translation of the Jehovah's Witnesses and the New American Bible of the Roman Catholic Church. God cannot bless sin and He will not bless the use of any corrupted bible version. This is the reason that Christians are weak and confused in their Christian walk and why churches are weakened to the point of destruction. These versions are like a virus on a computer, it comes in stealthily and eventually affects the whole church, like a virus affects the entire computer. Group originally started July 10, 2004

Affected Teaching
We end up this year revealing what the modern versions do best and that is attacking the Lord Jesus Christ. First of all they omit His title of deity “Christ” and then they omit the personalization by calling Him “The Lord Jesus” instead of “our.” The word “our” is in the possessive which means that we claim Him as our Savior and He claims us as His children. Then they remove the other personal message “be with you all.” They change it to third person “all the saints” or “the saints.” Let me use an analogy. A father has four children and he is away on business but makes a call home and says to his children, “my love to all the children” or he says “my love to all of you.” Which one would mean more to the children? The second because he personalized his love toward his children and that is exactly what God did. The modern versions make it very cold and distant but God’s true word, the King James Bible makes it personal to each of us.

Beginning next week I will be adding a new section to these posts. It will be entitled "Published Greek Texts with Corruptions." It will name the Greek Texts which carry the corruptions and some of them are out of publication but some are still extant such as the fourth edition of the United Bible Society critical text from 1983. It may help some avoid the use of these corrupted texts and be prepared to identify the corrupted ones.

2010 End of the Year Message
As we end up 2010 tonight, and in some parts of the world it is 2011 already, we end up with the sad statistics of 371 verses corrupted and 2129 words so far which have been omitted, added, or changed since I started this group on July 10, 2004. We have seen this year the horrible corruptions in the modern versions. This is not an argument of whose version is better but it is a serious spiritual battle with eternal souls at stake. We do not take up these kind of battles to be popular but we are commanded to contend for the faith.
(Jude 1:3 KJV) Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. The faith was already delivered to the Saints but as we have seen in the modern versions, the faith and its cardinal tenets are under attack as never before. As more modern versions and paraphrases come out, they continually obscure the truth of the Gospel and with each new version, there are increased attacks against the Lord Jesus Christ. The modern versions shroud the reality of judgment. It is a crying shame and it must grieve the heart of God when His blood bought children use these modern versions and then defend them.
If one looks back in church history, it will be quickly found that many Christians gave their lives for the true Gospel and the accompanying Scriptures. All one has to do is look at the history of the Waldensians who had the true Scriptures which came from Antioch and were severely persecuted for them, especially by the Roman Catholic Institution. Today Christians use the bibles which use the manuscripts which are totally of Roman Catholic origin. The Vaticanus and Sinaiticus being the top two corrupted manuscripts from Rome. Then there is the Alexandrian manuscript which contains many Gnostic changes. The King James Bible and its predecessors are bathed in the blood of the martyrs and today’s Christian follows men like Bruce Metzger and Bart Ehrman who both denied much of the Scriptures and were both unbelievers. Do we wonder why Christianity is in such disarray? Can God bless fornication? No He cannot because it is sin! In the same manner He cannot bless the modern versions nor does He give understanding from them because they are born of spiritual fornication! If we are going to make 2011 a year of spiritual victory, we need the right and true tools to accomplish that. Don’t let Satan give the excuse of “I can’t understand the words.” 30 years ago who knew what a byte was? 30 years ago windows was something we looked out of. 30 years ago who knew what a hyperlink was? Just as we all learned these things about our computers, we can easily learn the very few words in the King James Bible which seem so ancient and yet, when you look them up in a dictionary, they are all still valid words. I want to encourage everyone on this group to march into 2011, contending for the faith and not to back down because we are on the Lord’s side and are fighting the forces of Satan who continues to corrupt the true Scriptures. This fight is only going to intensify but take courage because Revelation 19:11 is just over the horizon. May you all have a blessed New Year.

BEWARE OF COUNTERFEIT KING JAMES BIBLES

Gotten from http://www.biblebelievers.com/believers-org/counterfeit-kjv.html

I have for the past two or three days been dealing with someone in England who assured me that the Authorized King James was published by HarperCollins, and copyrighted, of course!

Indeed, he is right, EXCEPT, THESE ARE COUNTERFEIT VERSIONS!!
WE HAVE THEM HERE IN THE UNITED STATES, ALSO!

One can bet if theirs is a copy that states the likes of Nelson Publishers or Zondervan Publishers (HarperCollins) right in the first page, IT IS A COUNTERFEIT COPY OF THE ACTUAL AUTHORIZED KING JAMES BIBLE!

It seems the more we presume to know,
the less we actually do know!

Satan in ever so crafty in his intent to have us deceived!



1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves,
covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers,
disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers,
incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

4 Traitors, heady, highminded,
lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof:
from such turn away.

6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses,
and lead captive silly women laden with sins,
led away with divers [diverse] lusts,

7 Ever learning,
and never able to come
to the knowledge of the truth.


2 Timothy 3:1-7 (King James Bible)

King James Bible believers are faced with an array of problems to day. Of course we all know that the multiplicity of all the new modern versions are a big problem but another big problem is the fact that many of the worldly publishing companies are publishing Bibles and calling them King James Bibles when in actuality they are not. They are counterfeits.


Because the King James Bible is in the publick domain and not copyrighted, these worldly publishing companies think they can make minor changes to the standard text so that they can please certain groups which translates into extra sales for them. That's the way the modern world operates to day. All the common ordinary Bible believer wants is the same Bible that his grandmother had and the same Bible her grandmother had and the same Bible her grandmother had etc. that's all.



Just give us the text that has established itself as the standard text of the Holy Bible, an old fashioned, Christ exalting, devil kicking, Authorized King James Bible. To the best of my understanding this is the 1769 edition of the 1611 King James Bible with a few minor printing errors and spellings corrected along the way in the 1800's.



Until the twenty-first century you could get a copy of it in any nickel and dime book store. To day you can still find it but you must proceed with caution. You will be hard pressed to find it at all in any typical Christian book store without some alterations to the text.



The Bible of our forefathers which we received through process of time comes with three specific warning labels. One is near the front. The other is near the middle and the last one is at the very end. Let's read them:


WARNING LABEL # 1 - Deuteronomy 4:2


2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.


WARNING LABEL # 2 - Proverbs 30:5-6


5 Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.

6 Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.


WARNING LABEL # 3 - Revelation 22:18-19


18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.



I would like to think these worldly publishing companies are just ignorant to the seriousness of what they are doing. However in some cases I'm sure that these deceptive maneuvers are being done with fore thought. In other words they are aware of the warning labels but choose to ignore them. They have hardened their hearts against the standard text of the Holy Bible.



Let me give you an example of what I'm talking about. It was approximately six months ago I purchased a King James Bible from a popular on line book store. It was a straight text (advertised as the standard text) meaning it had no notes, no references, no helps, and no maps. It was just what I wanted. Just give me the Bible and if I need help with a difficult passage I'll ask the Holy Spirit for guidance and I'll check other scriptures for references.



Don't get me wrong. I'm not against some of the commentaries and other Bible study tools. In fact I consider some of them a necessity, for example a good dictionary. It's just that commentaries, dictionaries, concordances and the like are the words of men and not the words of God. They are not infallible. Therefore I do not believe they should be mixed together under the same cover and be called the word of God. In actuality it is the word of God plus the words of a man or a group of men. In my opinion the Holy Bible should be just the word of God only from cover to cover. That is why I prefer a straight text.



At any rate I had bought the Bible I thought I wanted. It had been published by Cambridge. They have always been the giant in the industry. In fact they are the oldest Printer and Publisher in the world. They are supposed to be the gold standard for dependability according to many King James Bible believers. This Bible had a nice black French Morocco leather cover with golden coloured gilt edges. It was very nice on the outside but when I started checking out the inside I was shocked. This particular edition of the Cambridge Bible that calls itself a King James Bible is not genuine. IT'S A COUNTERFEIT! It's not the Bible of my forefathers!



Here are some of the changes I located: Asswaged has been changed to assuaged. Basons has been changed to basins. Chesnut has been changed to chestnut. Cloke has been changed to cloak. Enquire has been changed to inquire. Further has been changed to farther. Jubile has been changed to jubilee. Intreat has been changed to entreat. Morter has been changed to mortar. Ought has been changed to aught, and rereward has been changed to rearward.



Brother Nic, why get so upset? These are just minor changes in spelling. Well maybe they are, but have you never read "a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?" You see I believe God wrote the Bible through sinful men. I believe God copied the Bible through sinful men. I believe God translated the Bible through sinful men, and I believe God edited (purified) the Bible through sinful men. So therefore I believe God gave us the exact words in the exact order He wanted us to have them in. If that's the case then He spelled the words exactly the way He wanted to spell them, and gave them to us in a pure language, and that language is the standard text of the King James Bible. This is the Bible that has stood the test of time without any editing whatsoever and this is the Bible The Believers organization, with God's help, intends to preserve for all future generations.



Beside all this, Cambridge has also taken the liberty of making doctrinal changes. Notice the following: The capital S in the word Spirit has been changed to a lower case s in numerous passages. The capital S refers to the Holy Spirit, the third member of the Godhead, whereas the lower case s in the word spirit could have multiple definitions such as simply referring to a mood or emotion. Its primary definition means to breath. All living self moving creatures have a spirit within them. So many definitions could apply to the word spirit when it is not capitalized.



To change the capital S in the word Spirit to a lower case s is an attack against the Godhead, the most powerful threefold cord in heaven and earth: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Cambridge has made this critical error in the following places: Genesis 1:2, 41:38, Judges 3:10, 6:34, 11:29, 13:25, 14:6, 14:19, 15:14, 1 Samuel 10:6, 10:10, 11:6, 16:13, 16:14, 19:20, 19:23, 2 Samuel 23:2, 1 Kings 18:12, 22:24, 2 Kings 2:16, 2 Chronicles 15:1, 18:23, 20:14, 24:20, Job 33:4, Isaiah 40:13, 48:16, 61:1, 63:10, 11, 14, Ezekiel 11:5, 24. For hundreds of years Cambridge published these verses with a capital S, but now in the twenty-first century it has been changed. Actually this so called standard text edition first hit the market in 1993 and is being endorsed by many King James Bible believing websites to day. I assume that they are not aware that it has been modernized.



Here is another change that has been made in this particular edition: the word twoedged has become two-edged. They added a hyphen. This word is only in the King James Bible four times (Psalms 149:6, Proverbs 5:4, Hebrews 4:12, and Revelation 1:16.) Now check this out: they added the hyphen in only three of the four verses. They left it without a hyphen in Hebrews 4:12. Why? Was this a mistake or did they mean to do it that way? Why tamper with it in the first place? Don't say you were trying to help us Cambridge. If that's the case then please don't try to help us any more. All we want you to do is to publish the same standard text of the King James Bible as you have done so very well for hundreds of years. Don't publish something that is not the standard and call it the standard. Once you modernize spelling, change capital letters to lower case letters and add hyphens, you are changing the standard text in order to please modern society.



Here are some other ploys that some of these other worldly publishing companies are pulling on an unaware publick. One thing a lot of them do is change the spelling of words that end with the letters o-u-r to the more modern American spelling of o-r. For example armour becomes armor. Behaviour becomes behavior. Clamour becomes clamor. Colour becomes color. Endeavour becomes endeavor. Favour becomes favor. Honour becomes honor. Labour becomes labor. Neighbour becomes neighbor. Odour becomes odor. Rigour becomes rigor. Rumour becomes rumor. Valour becomes valor and vapour becomes vapor. Well Brother Nic what's wrong with that? Remember what we said about the warning labels? Remember what the scripture said about a little leaven leaventh the whole lump?



Now the very worst of this battle of o-u-r vs. o-r comes when dealing with the only begotten Son of God, our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The modern day counterfeiters have changed Saviour to Savior. They have given us a six-letter Savior in place of a seven-letter Saviour. In Bible numerics seven is the number of completeness, purity, and spiritual perfection. On the other hand six is the number of man which is earthly not heavenly. Every one has heard of 666. It has a bad connotation and is not highly esteemed in Bible numerics.



The seven-letter Saviour is the only begotten Son of God, the Lord Jesus Christ. The six-letter Savior is the son of perdition, the anti christ. He wants to be like the most High (Isaiah 14:14,) but not in a good way, but in an evil way. He is not a follower. He's a counterfeiter. Therefore his final destination is the lake of fire. The new versions, along with the new age movement, and some of the King James Bible counterfeits are preparing the way for this six-letter so called Savior. That's the way he will spell his name, S-a-v-i-o-r not S-a-v-i-o-u-r. No thank you Satan. I'm sticking with the seven-letter Saviour as portrayed in the old black Book that I inherited from my forefathers.



There are many other things going on by the worldly publishing companies. Almost all of them have hardened their hearts against the standard text of the Holy Bible. They do not believe God actually had His hand upon it much less wrote it. They treat it as a product of men. That is why they do not hesitate to publish all the different new versions. Nor do they hesitate to change the old King James and still call it the King James. If a person can't see the fingerprints of God upon this Book then he is either clouded in the cabassis or he is as lost as a duck in the desert with his head in the sand!



The rules of English grammar may change but the King James Bible is fixed in a moment of time (the 1800's, the 1900's and for ever more) and is unchangeable. This is the standard text and there is no other. This is the Book that spread the gospel of Jesus Christ all over the world. This is the Book my grandmother had and her grandmother had and her grandmother had without any alterations (editing) whatsoever. It is basically the same Book that rolled off the printing press in 1611. The only differences being it was changed from Gothic type to Roman type, printer's errors were corrected and spelling was stabilized. The King James Bible is a very old Book.


Now consider this: the scriptures have been translated into over 1,200 languages. Of all these over 800 languages had it translated straight from the Elizabethan English of the King James Bible. Not from the Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek. Not from the Latin, not from the German, but straight from the Authorized King James. Now some of these people have learned English as a second language. They are not familiar with these modern Americanized spellings nor are most of the other English speaking people of the world. Can you see what God has woven together through process of time? The Holy Bible is from above and is a finished book from God. It is written in a pure language. Furthermore this language is very peculiar and has been used and still is being used in a very unique way. Let's preserve it as we received it and quit trying to change it!

The best place I know to purchase a good Bible at a reasonable price is at Bearing Precious Seed Ministry and The Trinitarian Bible Society. They sell them at cost.

A1C Michael Bragg to Cindy Williams regarding Military Pay


WHAT A SHAME THAT OUR MILITARY HAVE TO KNOW

THEY ARE NOT REALLY APPRECIATED!!


CINDY WILLIAMS was appointed by Obama as an Assistant Director for NATIONAL SECURITY in the Congressional Budget Office..... Military Pay

This is an Airman's response to Cindy Williams' editorial piece in the Washington Times about MILITARY PAY, it should be printed in all newspapers across America .

Ms. Cindy William wrote a piece for the Washington Times denouncing the pay raise(s) coming service members' way this year citing that she stated a 13% wage increase was more than they deserve.

A young airman from Hill AFB responds to her article below. He ought to get a bonus for this.

"Ms Williams:
I just had the pleasure of reading your column, "Our GI's earn enough" and I am a bit confused. Frankly, I'm wondering where this vaunted overpayment is going, because as far as I can tell, it disappears every month between DFAS (The Defense Finance and Accounting Service) and my bank account. Checking my latest earnings statement I see that I make $1,117..80 before taxes per month. After taxes, I take home $874.20. When I run that through the calculator, I come up with an annual salary of $13,413.60 before taxes, and $10,490.40 after..

I work in the Air Force Network Control Center where I am part of the team responsible for a 5,000 host computer network. I am involved with infrastructure segments, specifically with Cisco Systems equipment.. A quick check under jobs for "Network Technicians" in the Washington , D.C. Area reveals a position in my career field, requiring three years experience in my job. Amazingly, this job does NOT pay $13,413.60 a year. No, this job is being offered at $70,000 to $80,000 per annum............ I'm sure you can draw the obvious conclusions.

Given the tenor of your column, I would assume that you NEVER had the pleasure of serving your country in her armed forces.

Before you take it upon yourself to once more castigate congressional and DOD leadership for attempting to get the families in the military's lowest pay brackets off of WIC and food stamps, I suggest that you join a group of deploying soldiers headed for AFGHANISTAN ; I leave the choice of service branch up to you. Whatever choice you make though, opt for the SIX month rotation: it will guarantee you the longest possible time away from your family and friends, thus giving you full "deployment experience."

As your group prepares to board the plane, make sure to note the spouses and children who are saying good-bye to their loved ones. Also take care to note that several families are still unsure of how they'll be able to make ends meet while the primary breadwinner is gone. Obviously they've been squandering the "vast" piles of cash the government has been giving them.

Try to deploy over a major holiday; Christmas and Thanksgiving are perennial favorites. And when you're actually over there, sitting in a foxhole, shivering against the cold desert night, and the flight sergeant tells you that there aren't enough people on shift to relieve you for chow, remember this: trade whatever MRE's (meal-ready-to-eat) you manage to get for the tuna noodle casserole or cheese tortellini, and add Tabasco to everything. This gives some flavor.

Talk to your loved ones as often as you are permitted; it won't be nearly long enough or often enough, but take what you can get and be thankful for it. You may have picked up on the fact that I disagree with most of the points you present in your open piece.

But, tomorrow from KABUL , I will defend to the death your right to say it.

You see, I am an American fighting man, a guarantor of your First Amendment right and every other right you cherish...On a daily basis, my brother and sister soldiers worldwide ensure that you and people like you can thumb your collective noses at us, all on a salary that is nothing short of pitiful and under conditions that would make most people cringe. We hemorrhage our best and brightest into the private sector because we can't offer the stability and pay of civilian companies.

And you, Ms. Williams, have the gall to say that we make more than we deserve?

A1C Michael Bragg, Hill AFB AFNCC

Christians Outraged That Apple Yanked App From Store

Christians Outraged That Apple

Yanked App From Store



Several Christian leaders are angry that Apple Inc. yanked an iPhone/iPad software application containing the text of the Manhattan Declaration, a 4,700-word document that includes basic Christian teachings and Bible verses on marriage, life, and religious liberty, Baptist Press reports. Apple’s rejection signals a growing societal intolerance of orthodox Christianity that “reflects hostility toward Christian beliefs,” according to those signing an objection letter to Apple, including Richard Land, James Dobson, Charles Colson, R. Albert Mohler Jr., and Timothy Dolan.

Apple, iPhone, iPad, application, ChristianNearly 500,000 Christians signed the original submission to Apple in 2009, including representatives from many major Protestant denominations, Catholic bishops, and leaders of the Orthodox Church. Apple pulled the free app from its online store in November, saying it "violates our developer guidelines by being offensive to large groups of people" because it opposes gay marriage, abortion, and embryonic stem-cell research.

The letter objecting to Apple’s action says the declaration “simply reaffirms the moral teachings of our Christian faith on the sanctity of human life, marriage and sexual morality, and religious freedom and the rights of conscience.”

“It is difficult to see how this is anything other than a statement of animus by a major American corporation against the beliefs of millions of Protestant, Catholic and Orthodox citizens,” a statement on the Manhattan Declaration website said.

Land, president of the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission, wrote in a Baptist Press column: "The positions espoused in the Manhattan Declaration are based on biblical Christianity and affirmed by nearly half a million Christians representing dozens of denominations.


"The declaration does not promote hate or homophobia. Instead, the declaration proclaims that all human beings are loved by God and are worthy of respect.”

Christian conservatives who support the Manhattan Declaration say they will resubmit the app to Apple's App Review Board after Jan. 1.

"To Him That Worketh Not"

"To Him That Worketh Not"


By David J. Stewart


“But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.” —Romans 4:5


What can you say to that? How can you argue with such plain and simple Words? The Word of God boldly proclaims that eternal life is obtained WITHOUT good works, i.e., works of self-righteousness. This Scripture silences the Lordship Salvationists. This Scripture silences the Pentecostals, like Wayman Mitchell, who teach that salvation can be lost if we do bad works. No sir, the Word of God does NOT teach any such lies. Jesus clearly stated in John 6:37, "...him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out."


What a wonderful statement... BUT TO HIM THAT WORKETH NOT! So many imposters today behind America's pulpits, like John MacArthur, deceitfully teach lost sinners that works must accompany faith. In John MacArthur’s 1988 book titled The Gospel According to Jesus, he clearly teaches Lordship Salvation! MacArthur writes on page 173 that faith ‘encompasses obedience,’ and on page 174 that obedience is ‘an integral part of saving faith.’ Indeed, obedience is bound up in the very ‘definition of faith’ (page 171) being a ‘constitutive element in what it means to believe.’ Thus any ‘concept of faith that excludes obedience’ (page 174) must be rejected because obedience is ‘indivisibly wrapped up in the idea of believing’ (page 176). In fact, ‘the character of true faith’ is nothing less than the ‘higher righteousness’ of the Beatitudes of Matthew 5:3-11 (page 176). Mr. MacArthur is deathly wrong! He needs to ponder Romans 4:5 until it sinks in... "But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness." Did you read that Mr. MacArthur... HIS FAITH IS COUNTED FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS!!!


Why do men make salvation difficult? Jesus said in John 10:9 that salvation is as easy as walking through a Door... "I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture." What can you say to that? Jesus said in John 4:10 that salvation is as easy as drinking a cup of water..."If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water." There is nothing hard or difficult about God's salvation. We just need to receive it through Jesus Christ, because He shed His blood to take away our sins. And by the way, no one can WORK their way into Heaven... "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us..." (Titus 3:5).


Dr. John Rice (1895-1980), founder of the Sword of the Lord, makes the following excellent statements . . .


When you get saved, you get saved not because you deserve it, but because you simply let God save you and because you confess your own poor sinful state and your inability to save yourself.


SOURCE: Dr. Rice... Here is My Question, by Dr. John R. Rice, pg. 304; 1962, Sword of the Lord Publishers; ISBN: 0-87398-158-8


This is what the Bible teaches. Dr. Rice also states in his Gospel tract, What Must I Do To Be Saved...


“The change in your heart, sinner, is God's part and you may be sure He will attend to that. Your part is to simply believe in Him. Whatever else is necessary in your eternal salvation, the Lord attends to when you trust in Him, or believe in Him.”


SOURCE: What Must I DO To Be Saved, by Dr. John R. Rice


Dr. Rice is 100% correct!


Why do some ministers require lost sinners to walk an isle to be saved? Why can't people be saved right in their pew? The saving power of the Gospel should be presented to those in the pew as well. Why do some ministers require people to feel sorry for their sins to be saved? Why do some preachers tell lost sinners to "be willing to turn from sin" to be saved? This implies Lordship Salvation. If I say... "I'll lend you my car if you're willing to fill the gas tank"... what am I really saying? Obviously, I expect you to fill my gas tank. Is not the same type of message placed in the minds of lost sinners when we require them to "be willing" to do anything. Did Jesus require the adulterous woman in John 8 to "be willing to turn from sin" to be saved? No, Jesus saved her, and then simply told her to "go and sin no more." When we come to Jesus Christ in repentance, realizing that we are hellbound sinners under the condemnation of God's Law, and place our faith in Jesus to forgive and save us, then we are saved eternally. It is after we are saved that Jesus says to all of us... "Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more" (John 8:11). "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus..." (Romans 8:1).


There are several favorite Scriptures that I cherish, but none greater than the precious truth of Romans 4:5... "But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness."
