I suppose that it would be wise for me to drop the subject.

Perhaps they are seeking some sort of martyrdom status for pushing their beliefs in the name of Jesus. The fact that they completely misrepresent Jesus does not seem to bother them at all. I personally think it should concern them.

We are accurately representing Jesus.

And also, my adoption of the kjv has happened because I started out my Christian life with it, then someone "suggested" that I try a different translation and I did. May walk with Christ went downhill from there. When I returned to the kjv, my walk began to look up again; as pertaining to my being able to deal with besetting sins in my life and having the zeal to preach the message to others.

Now, someone of you will think that it is a good idea to suggest to someone that they should switch from the kjv to a different Bible.

But that person will only be calling down judgment upon himself.

Sincere; just sincerely wrong.
So what? Do you really think God needs your help to in judging us or anyone else?

I think that it is wise for me to drop the subject before I do something in violation of the rules.

No, you are NOI! Jesus revealed His and therefore God's Holy Spirit of agape love and forgiveness unambiguously on the Cross. Virtually everything you preach about Him contradicts His and God's Holy Spirit making you blasphemers, not followers of Christ.

No matter how much meditating on the Bible you do under the veil from reading Moses, as long as you deny the Spirit you will not change that reality!!!

You effectively label those who believe what the Bible teaches about Christ as being "blasphemers" and as being not followers of Christ.

For I think that you know as well as I do that Charlie, myself, jimmiej, and a few others here, are defending the faith of what is taught by the Bible against your radical ideas that effectively give people a rationale by which they can effectively deny sound doctrine; as you are a teacher whom they will heap to themselves to tell them what their itching ears want to hear, as was prophesied in 2 Timothy 4:3.
