“Dr. Tim, leave Conor7 alone. He's probably some nerdy Methodist kid who's not allowed to have social media so he posts stuff on here.”“He might be busy getting ready, spraying his 24" comb-over with maximum strength Aquanet, and also giving his hog a pedicure for tonight's village dance-off, so I'll go ahead and answer for him.” This is going to be stuck in my head all day now, oy vey...Now I’m going to have dreams of a nerdy Methodist hog with a comb over, getting a manicure and a pedicure to a village dance off...a sort of weird twisted hillbilly anthropomorphic version of High School Musical. If I’m going to dream about hogs, I’d rather it be a blue hedgehog. The first one to gets that reference tell me his name, and where he is from... and no cheating, don’t look it up on the internet. (Hey, I was called nerdy so I had to add something semi nerdy) 🤓 |

John Lee said, "Thank you Connor. The reason you don't see legalism is simply because you are young in the faith and do not understand the term."Well you've managed to insult my spiritual growth and my intelligence. Just in one sentence. "Or maybe it is because I use the term legalism and you think it means salvation by works." Nowhere did I suggest it referred to it as salvation by grace + works. As a Calvinist, would you say that the grace of God is at the very root of your motivation? Is it God which "worketh in you to will and to do according to his purpose"? Or is it down to the pep talks in your IFB church?" Here again you've not only managed to insult my elders, but you've managed to insult my friends who members of my church. We don't give "pep talks" my pastors do expository preaching, and doctrinal teaching. In evangelism we focus on the Spirit's work in covicting the hearts of men and my pastors reject the sinners prayer and the using of gimmicks to try to make "a decision for Christ." |

@John Lee, I’m an IFB, Dr. Tim is an IFB, and I’m sure there’s more on here, but the IFB “community” (so to speak) don’t agree on every point.Dr. Tim is KJVonly, I’m not, Dr. Tim is not a Calvinist, I am. So we can easily list our agreements and disagreements but in the end we’re both IFB Christians. I see no hint of legalism in the good doctor. So painting with a broad brush is not the wisest thing in the world and I hope that you do recognize that you are slandering elders (and my elders) which is unseemly and a sin, you seem to be very casual in serious accusations. @The Quiet Christian, You’re a Presbyterian? I’ll have to post a link for you. |

Yeah, Acts 12:4 says, Acts 12:4 (TR1881): ὃν καὶ πιάσας ἔθετο εἰς φυλακήν, παραδοὺς τέσσαρσι τετραδίοις στρατιωτῶν φυλάσσειν αὐτόν, βουλόμενος μετὰ τὸ πάσχα ἀναγαγεῖν αὐτὸν τῷ λαῷ.“πάσχα” is the word for Passover. This same word is used for Luke 22:13 (TR1881): ἀπελθόντες δὲ εὗρον καθὼς εἲρηκεν αὐτοῖς· καὶ ἡτοίμασαν τὸ πάσχα In light of the context that has already been pointed out, it is proper to translate it “Passover” |

@John, having a barn to worship in doesn’t make it more spiritual, you can still worship in spirit and truth in a church building, early Christians didn’t always, if ever, have barns to meet in, and if you take your statement, “My preferences and opinions are always (I hope) based firmly on scripture, rather than mere human preferences.” To its logical extreme, you could not have simple appliances such as a fan, AC, a washer a dryer, etc. All except 2 things you listed are perfectly fine and not unbiblical unless you have scripture. |

@Moses, if you are saying that the increasing number of pagans are due to translations such as the NKJV,ESV, NASB, etc. then can you explain how people in Genesis 6 became so pagan that God killed them with a flood? Or perhaps Israelites, who has the oracles of God, became pagans? (Not all of course) Perhaps you can explain why the Pharisees were so inwardly wicked and crucified the Lord of glory? The first category didn’t have a Bible, the second had the word of God both verbally and audibly (prophets) and written (scriptures) yet they turned to idols, worshipped Baal, and human sacrifices, etc. The third category had the scriptures nailed in their minds, yet crucified their own Messiah. Bible translations are not causing paganism, the natural of man is described as a child of the devil, enemies of God, dead in sin, wicked, not seeking after God, etc. God restrains evil, and He can stop restraining evil as judgment on a nation who is opposed to God. |
