A true scholar is one who believes the Bible (KJV) whether he understands it or not (under “Our Scriptural Bases [sic] for Burning”).
It’s never good when you come across a church who identifies themself as an “Independent Fundamental King James Version Baptist Church” (that’s a mouthful!).
You might have heard about a small Baptist church in North Carolina, Amazing Grace Baptist Church, that is making national headlines because of a book burning event that they are holding tonight.
Here’s the list of tinder:
We are burning Satan’s bibles like the NIV, RSV, NKJV, TLB, NASB, ESV, NEV, NRSV, ASV, NWT, Good News for Modern Man, The Evidence Bible, The Message Bible, The Green Bible, ect. These are perversions of God’s Word the King James Bible.
We will also be burning Satan’s music such as country , rap , rock , pop, heavy metal, western, soft and easy, southern gospel , contemporary Christian , jazz, soul, oldies but goldies, etc.
We will also be burning Satan’s popular books written by heretics like Westcott & Hort , Bruce Metzger, Billy Graham , Rick Warren , Bill Hybels , John McArthur, James Dobson , Charles Swindoll , John Piper , Chuck Colson , Tony Evans, Oral Roberts, Jimmy Swagart , Mark Driskol, Franklin Graham , Bill Bright, Tim Lahaye, Paula White , T.D. Jakes, Benny Hinn , Joyce Myers , Brian McLaren , James White, Robert Schuller, Mother Teresa , The Pope , Rob Bell, Erwin McManus , Donald Miller, Shane Claiborne, Brennan Manning, William Young, Will Graham , and many more.
No, this is not a joke, although I would “Amen” much of the Christian bestsellers they are burning!
While they argue that the KJV was inspired and preserved by God, using such passages as Psalm 12:6-7 and 2 Timothy 3:16-17, I can argue for the superiority of the KJV over any other translation by using one proof text from each of the testaments:
Isaiah 50:2
Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? or have I no power to deliver? behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stinketh, because there is no water, and dieth for thirst.
John 11:39
Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.
QED.
At least they’re serving fried chicken . . . and all the sides.
Haha! I did see that, I meant to comment on that! Good catch!
I viewed the whole website. Oh by goodness. To think I was a part of that for so many years. I still love those old saints that is listed on the site. I grew up with them, hear them preached, went out to eat lunch with them, with my Dad. I even preached like them for many years. Oh my.
A true fundamentalist website for sure. Being there and done all that for many years. For those who can work that system, go for it. I have seen too much from a personal view point that has just broken my heart.
I still love the old fashion gospel but its not found in the KJV only or all the other stuff we call separation, its only found in the teaching of the Bible, God is much bigger than any translation, He is Lord and He works with us, don’t He.
Thanks for the information, I think, I now will go watch the Yankees and pray for the church.
