@Lie Detecor. I think Guy asked a reasonable question, can you answer these questions:1. What is the nature and attributes of God? 2. What is the nature of man? 3. Who is Jesus of Nazereth? 4. How does one get to Heaven? |

You say that I am a "defender of the false teachers" if you're referring to the Seventh Day Adventist, I have studied the group, and there are some SDA churches that are Christians and not cultic, I would say most of the...denomination (if we can call it that) is indeed in darkness, they are cultic and teach Ellen G. White material.As far as an 'ecumenical debater' I don't know a lot of ecumenical debaters who read Van Til, Kingdom of the Cults, writes articles examining the claims of the cults, etc. And as far as being a 'defender of false Christianity' I have explained to people how to defend the faith against Catholics, Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons, theistic evolutionists, Seventh Day Adventists, etc. I am open to correction, I do not claim to have 'Connor Vision' I just let the text speak for itself, and, since you claim that these texts support your believe, the burden of proof is on you to explain how they support your position. I still encourage you to pray for the people in Rwanda. |

@Chris, I used the loosely. Unfortunately I haven't been feeling any better, things have gotten worse actually, but God knows what He's doing, He's not obligated to heal me, I have to realize that He is Creator, and I am creature, He works all things after the counsel of His will.As Christians, we have to realize that there is no purposeless suffering, and that we must glorify God in our suffering. It is hard to do, I fail often at doing it; our purpose is to glorify God, there is no other option. |

Bible Based Christian, if I can point out a few things:Psalm 64:7, David is asking God to save him from his enemies, and I don't think the passage says anything about lightning. Samuel 22:15 is recording what God did to save the Israelites Zachariah 9:14 is not referring to Rwanda, rather it is directed towards the neighboring nations of Israel. Job 38:35 is directed to Job, and God asked him...I think 41 questions to humble Job. Psalm 144 is a Psalm of David, to my knowledge he is not asking God to smite people in Rwanda, rather his current enemies that are afflicting him. And I encourage you to read the entirety of Psalm 18, it is highly poetic. I think it's best to just pray for these people, if you don't think they're saved, then pray for their salvation. |

I think the KJVonly debate has been quite fascinating, I encourage people to read the exchange that I had with IE, Dr. Tim and some others. IE did not answer probably over 4 of my questions, he misrepresented the Reformed side, and did not differnciate between meaningful, non-meaningful, viable, and non-viable variants, and used double standards and fallacious argumentation.Dr. Tim on the other hand behaved like Dr. Ruckman, he failed to provide good argumentation, and he could not control his speech. If anyone wants documentation of this, simply follow this link and check it out: https://www.sermonaudio.com/new_details.asp?ID=49335 And if I could address Bible Based Christian, there are different flavors of SDA, I believe Martin Walter even said that some SDA churches that are not cults, they do not agree with Ellen G. White and try to follow the Bible, they are Christians. I'm afraid that your interpretation of the lightning strike is superstitious, this same line of reasoning was utilized by Job's friends and the Pharisees, so I recommend to not adopt that line of reasoning. Let's pray for the people who lost friends, and leave the rest to God. |

Well, since IE won't answer my questions, will not recant his argument regarding the reformed position on this issue, and continues to use double standards, I'll close with this:As a reformed baptist, I think I have defended the word of God, I hope I have challenged some people like Dr. Tim, IE, and any onlookers. I believe we have the word of God, however I don't limit the word of God to a 1611 Anglican translation of the word of God; we have fine translations of the word of God such as the NASB, KJV, and NKJV and we have bad 'translations' of the word of God, such as The Living Bible, The Message, and the New World Translation. I encourage all Christians to look at both sides of the issue, I recommend reading The King James Only controversy by James White, Canon Revisited, & The Question of canon by Michael Kruger, and Revisiting the corruption of the New Testament by Daniel Wallace. I also recommend you listen to debates that can be found on SA such as James White vs. Gail Riplinger, James White vs. D.A. Waite, and you can buy the KJVonly debate on the John Ankerburg show. I'm sure IE and Dr. Tim can recommend some resources and I highly encourage you to check those out as well. Take care and God bless. |

Well once again, I.E. has not answered my questions, but rather he has presented another flaw in his argument and proves my point once again:1. He says that Mark is, "intentionally omitted" this is a common assertion, but it lacks evidence, if a scribe intentionally omitted this, why then did he not do it to other gospels, or Paul's letter to the Corinthians, or Luke Acts? Or the other passages where it says that Jesus is God, Jesus rose from the dead, etc. etc. Daniel Wallace made a good point in the Ankerburg show, "If a doctrine rests on one verse, then we've lost a doctrine, but if a doctrine is found throughout the Bible, we've lost nothing." 2. IE commits the "guilt by association fallacy" his assumption is that if Catholics worked on it then it must be corrupt, if this is true then the logical extreme would put the KJV in question because of the Roman priest Erasmus who was a big role in the KJV. Furthermore, if part of his argument against Codex Siniaticus is that it has The Shepherd of Hermes and the Epistle of Barnabus, if we take his argument to its logical extreme, then we should not use the 1611 KJV since it had the apacrapha. |

Well IE, you still haven't answered my questions, and you brought up another flaw in your argument, in your quote regarding "the reformed take on versions" can you explain why? John MacArthur, Steve Lawson, Sinclar Furgeson, John Piper, Ligon Duncan, Phil Johnson, Michael Kruger, Paul Washer, James White, Reformed Theological Seminary, the KJV translators, R.C. Sproul, etc. these are all big names in the reformed camp, why do these guys not hold to the beliefs of that pamphlet you quoted? Because to me, it does not seem that you are accurately representing the reformed position. |
