Don't Call Him Reverend ?

[dadof10]

It is millions that will not call a man reverend because of Psalm 111:9.

Over a billion people don't accept Jesus as God. I don't know what numbers have to do with anything. They are wrong and so are the "millions" who will not use the title reverend because of this verse. They and you are misinterpreting it.

Does not the verse say reverend is His name ? So what are you talking about ?

No, the verse doesn't say that His proper name is "reverend" or "holy", like my proper name is Mark. If you said "his name is strange", that would not mean my proper name is "Strange". The word "strange" is an adjective used to describe my proper name, Mark. The words are ADJECTIVES IN THIS VERSE.

We are to take the Bible at it's literal Word.

Says who? Where is this in Scripture?

And I am no longer a Catholic basher, for about 2 years on this forum I did that, I just don't do it anymore. But I will speak the truth, and if Catholics or Buddist are in it, I will not hold back. But I will not bash you.

I never accused you of bashing me or Catholics in general, just misreading Scripture.

Lewis, you may be interested in this thread, Tomlane managed to keep it alive for six pages:

Is "Reverend" an Appropriate title for a Man?

It was truly amazing that it went so long.

I see which way this topic is going, so I better lock it.
