This isn't meant to be a thread about King James Cronyism its not about buying a kindle book its from a site where i find some pretty good reading information and today i found this..

The Certainty Of the Words

Introduction

On a given Saturday, a Jehovah’s Witness (JW), dressed all dapper, and distinguished in bearing, approaches the front door of a house outside of a large Midwestern city, rings the bell and awaits opportunity to enlighten whatever soul opens the door to his version of the “truth” regarding the coming kingdom. His sidekick and visitation partner is there to observe how it is done.

As happens only so often, the JW this particular morning does not encounter the mere vapid, religious zombie who only knows what he is supposed to believe, and not why. The doorbell is neither altogether ignored after a quick, flickering movement of the curtains, nor is it slammed shut in the middle of the JW’s oft-rehearsed spiel. Further, the prospective convert does not stand with glazed-over eyes, shuffling feet and wistful glances over his shoulder at the beckoning recliner and a ballgame that is about to start.

No, instead of enduring further polite verbal skewering, the homeowner sallies forth and interrupts the JW elder’s post-introductory procession of words, by announcing himself a born-again, Bible-believing Christian. He further disrupts the flow by informing the visitors that since he already knows what they believe down at the Kingdom Hall, he might as well cut to the chase and say outright what the issues at hand are. He then relates that he has already fully investigated those matters, and there are reasons that he could never come to an agreement with such doctrine.

He takes a short breath, giving the lead JW just a moment to adjust his tie and steal a glance at his now slightly wide-eyed partner-in-heresy. Unfortunately, the breath doesn’t take long enough to allow him to jump in and regain the initiative in the conversation.

The Bible thumper proceeds to tell them that: 1) Hell is a real place that burns hot with God’s wrath even on this fine Saturday morning, that Pilate has been there for 2000 years in torment and that the folks in today’s obituaries are only beginning an eternal nightmare. 2) The Bible proves that Jesus Christ was literally God manifest in the flesh, quite unlike the JW idea, which was hatched by Origin and his buddies; and 3) Further, the blood of Christ shed for sinners was, thus, God’s very blood; and only the blood of Jesus Christ…cleanseth us from all sin – and that completely by faith!

His timing all ruined, and disinterested now in continuing pursuit of such a theologically hardened yet well fortified aggressor, the still distinguished Arian frankly concedes that it does appear unlikely that he and his visitation partner will ever be able to come to any real agreement with the homeowner. So being willing to courteously disengage, he only wishes to say that the Bible-quoting saint should be aware that a great deal of truth is to be found in the Greek originals which is not contained in the fundamentalist’s old outdated Bible. Naturally, it would be best if the born-again guy would come to some Kingdom Hall meetings to find out what the bible really says...

Latin root word for religion is bondage, which is different then that of Gods pure religion of James 1:27, but that of following tradition and the doctrine of a mans church, not Gods true Church. The Latin root word is religare as re is a prefix that means return and ligare means to bind. Religion tells you what you can and cannot do and becomes socially acceptable by mans interpretations, traditions and doctrines. Religion is what nailed Christ to the cross because the KJV Bible is not socially acceptable to society, if it were then Christ would have died in vain. God is not about mans religion, nor does he recognize religion. God is about a personal relationship with you and His son Jesus Christ.

John 1:1 in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:2 the same was in the beginning with God.
John 1:3 all things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
John 1:4 in him was life; and the life was the light of men.
John 1:5 and the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

The biggest deception Satan can use is to confuse the unlearned mind. God said his people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. You forget me and my word and I will forget you and your children. This is a pretty profound statement that holds so much truth. This is why this world is in the shape it is in today with so many religions claiming they are the true religion and only they will go to heaven and those who do not conform to their ways will go to hell.

Truth has now turned to deception of the carnal minds ways of thinking which produces mans interpretations, traditions of law and doctrine. Satan has such a foothold on religions and has side blinded all of us into believing whatever is taught behind the pulpit is truth because after all, they are the Priest, Rabbis, Pastors, etc. etc. and they should know what they are talking about because they are our teachers. Satan is pretty clever and the master of lies and deceit.

Jeremiah 6:16-30

1Peter 5:8 be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil is seeking to whom he may devour.
1Peter 5:9 Whom resist steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
1Peter 5:10 but the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle you.

1Peter 4:11 If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles, (wisdom) of God, if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth, that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ to whom be praise and dominion forever and ever, Amen.

Revelation 22:18 for I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
Revelation 22:19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
