I've seen some Christians use the Parable of the Lost Sheep as a comparison to the Black Lives Matter Movement... It goes something like this. While I see what they are trying to accomplish, these types of analogies are "Theological Racism". Seems we're so quick to find Scripture to back up what we are saying that we don't take what Jesus was talking about in context. To use this story and to compare to black people to the one sheep is insulting to them. This guy in the link below talks about this issue. https://medium.com/@marc.lavarin/why-im-skept

Welcome to OB, looking forward to your posts.

Jim, when you come across one can you send me a PM with the link to the posts that are missing the edit link?

Hello, we don't have a built in feature (yet) that will allow you to easily post scripture. For now it pretty much is copy and paste.

Yes, thank you for posting this.

This morning we upgraded the software for Online Baptist, so things look a little different around here. Please let me know of you run into any trouble.

Thank you. He did mention the same thing in a private message to me.

@No Nicolaitans I said You replied: I said I gave, you said I was giving. **I'm confused as to what you are refuting** Sorry to see ya leave. Door is always open for you. God Bless.

Keep on keeping on Brother Mike. Praying for you.

I was unemployed but still had some income coming in so I gave. I understand and sort of agree with your point. With us being a church plant, I have no choice but to take care of the finances (hopefully one day turn it over to someone). I will say this, those that don't give take up a good majority of my time outside of the pulpit. For me, I'm not going decide where my time/energy goes based on who or how much one gives.

Any particular reason why you are looking for a NKJV?

@LYDIA WESTERN The edit option should now be there for you.

Don't get me started on the amount of Scripture that Steve Anderson misunderstands.

Once a month my father preaches our midweek service and he's been going through Ps 119. What a great journey it has been.

To answer the original question of should Christians tithe during the corona virus? YES!!! I understand times are tough, but even when I was unemployed, I still gave what I believe God was telling me to give. Follow God's leading, He'll never leave nor forsake you.

Cool. He really helped me out a couple of years ago at a Pastors Conference in NJ. I was really down and discouraged over a church split, God used him in my life.

Is that Pastor Fishers church?

Apparently some are looking to Google for advise in this area. lol

It was meant to be tongue-in-cheek. I thought I placed an emoji after that to indicate my intention, but I clearly forgot.

I just don't understand how anyone who did any amount of research can come up with the conclusion that the modern versions are inaccurate.

Google emails me monthly a small report on how people have found Online Baptist from Google's website. The Ebonic Bible has been one of the top queries for the last few years, but since the Covid-19, clicks on having a baby in the end times is up 355% from the previous month. I guess since people are searching for this topic. what's your thoughts on having a baby in the end times?

Will be praying for his health. Has he ever mentioned if he has ever accepted Christ?

We're slowly upgrading our system as we get money for better live streaming. Quality is not the best, I'm praying for a tech guy to join to do this for us. https://www.facebook.com/pg/HighpointBaptistChurch/videos/?ref=page_internal & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_rQRNH0iHUiDrMuSLQvXTg/videos
