Members Donald Posted November 26, 2014 Members Share Posted November 26, 2014 The other day I found a New World Translation of the “bible”(not really a Bible), and today I burned it in my BBQ grill. I regularly burn material that I find, produced by the JW’s or the Mormons etc. (Although I have not as yet, had the pleasure of burning a Koran.) The reason for this post, is remind everyone that it is Biblically commanded to do so....Titus 1:10-11 V.10 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: V.11 Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake. If I could, I would physically “shut the mouths” of every false prophet; But even though this is not possible, I(we) can destroy there lying literature.

Moderators Ukulelemike Posted November 26, 2014 Moderators Share Posted November 26, 2014 I don't always burn them, because I like to use them to reference how poor they are, as well as for discussion's sake. Like in the thrift store the other day, I found a Mormon missionary handbook, and bought it, because, seriously, these are some closely-guarded secrets. If I can read it and understand their mindset, perhaps it will help me in making better inroads to mormon missionaries I come across. I also got a copy of the new revised New World translation, to keep up on their latest heresies. And I keep the NIV to show people where verses and sections have been removed, for those who insist there is no substantive difference between it and the KJV.

Moderators Salyan Posted November 26, 2014 Moderators Share Posted November 26, 2014 I was out geocaching once and found a book cache. Essentially, it was a 'take one, leave one' set up with books. Very cool. There was a Book of Mormon, so I happily traded that for a Chick tract. Took the BOM to church to see if any of the men wanted it for their 'poison shelf' (as our pastor calls it). Figured it was a good trade all round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John81 Posted November 27, 2014 Members Share Posted November 27, 2014 And I keep the NIV to show people where verses and sections have been removed, for those who insist there is no substantive difference between it and the KJV. I have a parallel KJB/NIV which works great for easily showing the substantive differences between the KJB and NIV. I've actually got a lot of good use out of that over the years.

Members MountainChristian Posted November 28, 2014 Members Share Posted November 28, 2014 Donald, I done that with my NIV after I left the liberals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
