I'm getting confused these days, I thought Local Church became Church Bible when they moved! Need more vegetables! LOL

https://churchbiblepublishers.com/shop/bible-by-cover-color/black/midsize-turquoise-reference-bible-corporate-series-black/ We recently gave this as a gift to a young man courting one of my daughters. It is very similar to my Hendrickson's Minister's Bible which is why I chose it. I prefer the center references and it has a great many of them. They also have center reference bibles for $67 with leather covers as well and they now do imprinting in house. I'm going to get the same thing if my eyesight returns as the dog chewed mine up (the cover) when she was little. The text is Scrivener's update to the Cambridge I think in 1875. It's great.

So did you go? Pass out any Chick Tracts?

I saw this post and thought John81 was back! ? I miss John81 and JerryNumbers.

The pastors of the Danbury Baptists influenced Thomas Jefferson enough to create the Bill of Rights. On a side note, one of their churches is still operating today as IFB in Wingdale, NY. Dover First Baptist Church. I have relatives who live nearby but won't go and reject the gospel because their aunt is a retired "pastor" and says we're all racists! LOL

My daughter got involved with a group and they groomed her and broke up several marriages. We still have that promise in the Proverbs, "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it." I would like to see that day but fear I may not be around for it.

When my father was in grade school in the '50s and '60s he had a teacher tell the class that she was a Communist. She was not there the next day. My grade school experience is summed up perfectly in the book, Child Abuse in the Classroom by Phyllis Schlafly. I still have some of those perverted questionnaires that the teachers were always passing around. Curiously, my younger sister and brother have no recollection of any of these things happening. They embrace liberalism.

It's not well publicized, or was not well publicized save for their own circles. I was first aware of it back about 2010 or so when GLAAD made the news saying that they would be involved with public schools in my area. By that point all of our children were out of the public school system. The straight ones are preying on the kids sexually too. It's a free for all attack on children.

Absolutely not. Not even my children.

Yes, and the Holy Ghost showed me why and I repented and they were then answered, almost every time! Other verses teach us that we have to be in fellowship with the Lord for him to hear us.

By their fruits we know them, we can know after a time whether one is saved or not. It's not a mystery. Despite the enormous attention and energy my wife and I spent with our oldest daughter, she is living a depraved lifestyle now and also calls herself a Christian. She's made three professions of faith that I'm aware of over the years and shows no remorse for her actions over the years. Her name is not in the lamb's book of life. I pray that she turn from her wicked ways and makes repentance to God and puts her trust in Jesus. We grieve for the future of our grandson. It is my prayer that he become a preacher and lead his mother to Christ.

Most teachers in public education are lost, depraved sinners and Satan uses them with impunity to destroy children. Most do not know they are being used and most do not even know that they are fellow travelers and useful idiots.

He said knowledge would increase. To me, all this new tech and knowledge just exposes more and more of God's existence and handi-work.
