When we take a look on every Bible, most of their cover has these wording, "The Holy Bible." So far I had not come across any Bible has "The Perfect Bible" printed on the cover page. I believe the Bible is inspired and sacred.
Some one wrote pages about "there is no carnal Christian." They do not believe a true Christian has any trace of carnality in them, so he wrote Christian are spiritually not fit to be called a carnal Christian. He does not believe in a carnal Christian. But they kept on making divisions among Christian, and fight over this and that....they do not see this is a kind of carnal Christian.
But Paul wrote in this way, he said "division" is a type of carnality in Christian.
1 Corinthians 3:1
And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.
1 Corinthians 3:3
For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
1 Corinthians 3:4
For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?
Are you not carnal? You say there is no carnal Christian! But you continue in split, internal fighting, law suit, quarrels, strife, envying, divisions..... I put into another way, a carnal Christian like me is an unpolished and uncut diamond in a stone. I say this is about myself. Unpolished.
Is there so called carnal pastor? Think...when some of us say, I follow John Calvin, I follow Martin Luther, I follow John Wesley, I follow Cho Yong Gi, I follow the Bible, I follow Jesus Christ......and we strife over these Bible versions,
Are we following Jesus Christ?
Does John Calvin died for us on the cross to save us?

STAY COOL
A pastor once said this to his young followers, taught them to do extra work, going extra miles, making extra effort to serve mankind, he told the young, "Lets take up a part time job, selling wood stick and oil to make fire power."
The young men asked him, how to be successful in doing that?
The pastor told the young people, "You tell people like this, 'One wood stick one church, one stick one denomination, one stick brighten a whole world. Our one stick can burn better!' This is to let people know how to stay cool when the day is hot, do not use too many wood stick at the fire place, burn one stick at a time in the fire place can saved more money." And he continue to say, "With our home made oil, pour onto that one and only wood stick, we can burn the whole night, until the Lord return. Our oil even can make a fire power so bright, so great even the whole world can see our one stick...burning. Even Moses' burning bush also cannot compared with our home made brightness, one stick burning with our home made oil."
STAY COOL WITH ONE STICK BURNING! Keep on burning with our one stick, one stick one nation! My policy is self care policy, I do not care what other said about me, is the best policy.
What the Bible tells us about fellowship? The Bible does not want any one of us to stay cool in isolation! We are not to be alone, burning one stick at one time is not right, but we are called to keep on burning among other stick! More sticks keep on burning together at a place is better than one stick burning.
Hebrews 3:13
...but exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
Hebrew 10: 25
Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
1 Thessalonians 5:19
Do not put out the Spirit's fire;
The Lord is our fire in the darkness of sin! He is the light onto mankind. How can a man keep on burning alone? And not getting cool!
The young men asked him, how to be successful in doing that?
The pastor told the young people, "You tell people like this, 'One wood stick one church, one stick one denomination, one stick brighten a whole world. Our one stick can burn better!'

The Church is a dangerous place!
The church is actually the people in Christianity, but there are some wolves in sheep clothings, they are not the sheep, they are the wolves! They are not the sheep which are following Christ, they are very gentle like that old pastor, you know who I meant, people said he was so good and so good, the most gentle men on earth they had ever met so far!
But I heard some things from his closest friend who knew him for more than 40 years, the pastor friend said this old pastor is actually an "old fox." He told me to be careful with him. So that is why I am writing this blog to refute those small foxes!
Later, I follow this old pastor's foot prints, to see if he is an "old fox" or not, and I saw some traces of the devil invasion in his life. He was once used by the Holy Spirit, but later he had fallen away from the fullness of the Holy Spirit, this can happened even to the greatest men in the history on earth, I am not excluded!
1. He asked his church to separate from other faithful churches, this is not biblical.
2. He stopped people from tongue speaking, sign and wonders, even exorcise, healing, this is another thing, and then he split the church because of these!
3. he had oppressed some young servants of Christ, in theological debates! He misled them into errors and endless fightings.
4. He is as gentle as a dove, but he is not a dove, he is not a wolf, but he had became a "old fox!" Many do not see this! Old fox!
There are many things I can write about this old fox, about his life and teachings, but better I don't waste my time in writing an old fox! This old fox has no tail! That is why people thought he is the good Shepherd.
You must be serious, yes, I am serious! I am also sometime misled by him, I also became a small little fox! Ruining the vineyard! May God change me! I do not want to be a little fox!
Fox, fox, fox, fox, fox, fox...one little fox!
Baa, baa, black fox, baa, baa, black fox, any any wool, any any wool...yes sir, yes sir, three bags full, one for the pastor, one for the dame, but none for the little boy cries down the drain!
That is why we need the sword! To defend the flocks from the foxes and the lions!

Split and divorce
Matthew 19:9
I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, and marries another woman commits adultery."
There is divorce for marital unfaithfulness, Jesus Christ allowed this, but He does not encourage this, why I said so, look at what Paul wrote later.
In 1 Corinthians 7:27
Are you married? Do not seek a divorce. Are you unmarried? Do not look for a wife.
1.Do not seek a divorce.
2.Do not look for a wife.
Now a day people divorce their wife so easily...making the problem in our generation! We had carried our problem into next generation.

Brain Storming
This blog to me is my brain storming, is actually only exist on the paper, this is not a dogma, this is only my personal view! In searching the truth for the Verbal Plenary Preservation. I do not think what I wrote is right and perfect, I need time to correct my blog. I may write another blog to defeat this blog....this is to see the balancing point!

External Focus!
The Gospel of Matthew written that the world ended in such a different way from the way we are living now, you better asked yourselves this, does the world has a happy ending?
What our Lord told us before hand about the end of the world in Matthew 24-25? What happened to our family life in those days.
And what about our enemy in the end time?
Revelation 12:10 (New International Version)
10Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say:
"Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God,
and the authority of his Christ.
For the accuser of our brothers,
who accuses them before our God day and night,
has been hurled down.
What about eating and drinking in the end time?
Romans 14:17
For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit
Why are we still worry about our eating and drinking?
Where is our righteousness comes from?
Where is our peace from?
What is the joy in the Holy Spirit?
What our Lord told us before hand about the end of the world in Matthew 24-25? What happened to our family life in those days.

Stand!
I am writing in this blog silently, still seeking the truth, still there is a fear that this blog become avain, that I will be stoned to death by the theologians and those elders, in writing blog, in attacking the theologians, in saying things that they do not like to listen, and they say I am losing my mind!
Continue in writing this, so that I reach the point where I can make a conclusion finally, the Verbal Plenary Preservation. Some times I do not know how to write any more, nearly give up in seeking what is Verbal Plenary Preservation that split the BP churches, I stopped, resting for some time, I changed my blog address so many times, because there is dangers around! I Do not think I am all right even now, lets I am fallen down! There are times, when I was under the attack from the evil spirits and evil men, life is harder than I can imagined!
1 Corinthians 10:12
Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.
Revelation 6:17
For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
If I can stand another day in peace, great is my joy in me!

Laying hands!
The Bible tells us not to lay hands on anyone hastily, 1 Timothy 5:22, Do not lay hands on anyone hastily, nor share in other people’s sins; keep yourself pure.
2 Timothy 1:6, Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.
Through laying hands, sin was shared from a man to another man. Be careful!
Through laying hands, gift was passed from a man to another man. Be a Blessings!
I tell you another thing, that through laying of hands, sickness was healed. Acts 28:8, And it happened that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and dysentery. Paul went in to him and prayed, and he laid his hands on him and healed him.
Furthermore even before a man was healed, he may received the Holy Spirit through laying hands on a man. Acts 8:18, And when Simon saw that through the laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Spirit was given, he offered them money.
Hands are given so much power! Imagine that bear little hands that shake the world, mother's hands.
I tell you another thing, when a man laying hands on other, the evil spirit may jump on your hands! Those small little evil bugs! It depends on what purpose and on who we lay our hands! Take care!
ACTS 19:13 Some Jews who went around driving out evil spirits tried to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who were demon-possessed. They would say, "In the name of Jesus, whom Paul preaches, I command you to come out." 14 Seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this. 15 (One day) the evil spirit answered them, "Jesus I know, and I know about Paul, but who are you?" 16 Then the man who had the evil spirit jumped on them and overpowered them all. He gave them such a beating that they ran out of the house naked and bleeding.
I met pastors with strange and evil "bugs" jumping in his body, and I can feel this and I can smell it! That is why I wrote here, to remind, I never believe for what I saw, and what I felt, spirit jumping in pastors which carrying sickness and torments, and I heard he was sing "hallelujah" aloud, shocking and rocking himself in laud "spiritual" songs, i do not understand this at all, why this things happened to him? I saw many "Christians" with evils spirit in their faces, i also do not understand why she or he is like that, smiling with double edges teeth, smiling with a weird smile. That appeared in a split of second, after that the woman returned to normal! No one else see this!
Pastors may sometime oppressed by evil force, under spiritual bondages, traumas, because they are living under sins! That is why the struggles! What am I going to do, living under this oppression, temptations have make a pastor and Christian to live under the grips of the evil powers! He may pretend to be someone for whole life! Like Judas Iscariat, he was loving money more than the Lord!
I had met pastors and elders with high degrees, but they are murderers! I met one of them, who can memories the whole Book of James, surprisingly, he even can memorise the Book of James in Greek, every word of it, every chapter of it, the word of God in his mouth, but he was attacked by the evil spirits at night, crying for helps, day in day out, I pitied him! In this I also do not understand, why? Maybe the pastors lived in secret sins!
I had met women with spirits hidden, until prayers and fasting revealed them, their true colors, but this I cannot tell you, I am afraid you will be frighten, scared. I had to pray and fast, if I do not, I am like a dead dog! And I am useless, even the glory of God has left me for sometimes, personal sins, glory of God may leave a man, but it is when I am reading the Bible, the glory of God returned to me a little while, hallowing my head, but another time, remember the glory of God is from God, come and go, sometimes, I am living in fears, nightmares, there was time when I was living in depression. When I am hating a man, there is darkness over my faces, over my head, who can help me?
I am a man, when I start to talk, man will left the room at once, I am a man who has no true friend on earth, I am a man who cannot talk this openly, that is why I wrote here as a references in future, for myself, and I am a man who are mourning for the theologians, and I am not better than all those men I mentioned earlier, those who has spiritual bugs, those who are oppressed, I am no better than any one of them, that is why I write here to remind me and warned me, in case you met these people, remember to pray for them, only by God's grace, we can help other, only by God's mercy I can lived until today. Lord Jesus Christ please come to help us! Please lay your hands on us, to heal us!
Man, we sometime slay a man with our bear hands!

Letter to the elder and the captives
The churches in different denominations said THIS to the servant of God, the church does not belong to man, but to God. In this they oppressed the servant of God, and the voices of the poor servant of God has gone up the sky. Money is taken the church in captive, the Babylonian invaded the churches!
They had made the servants of God becoming a slave for the elders, and they paid their service to the Lord, like paying a maid servant, time is come to the elders, He is knocking, and the elders are going to open the door! And they will see themselves in the mirror, blessed is the elder who will be come a servant of the Lord.
And there is people around that mingle truths with false! Even so beware for what you the elder who have taught the babes and the young sheep in Christ in all these Churches, the Lord is coming back to see your work. He is looking for the faithful servants of God, and then he will reward them.
Do not asked me, how much money in your pocket? You think He is coming back to look for a bank with gold bars? A big church building, a bigger car? A better out fit? You do not care for the poor, and you do not give water to the thirsty men and women, and that is accountable, and the prisons are full with hopeless eyes, you still wanted to run the world without hopes? And you are competing for rewards on earth?
You think He is coming back to look for a man with purple robes, and this man bullying men with his authority? i have told you beforehand, and when things happened, you know where you can look for God, His Name, is Adonai the Messiah! You know God is a God of revenge, He is light, and let Him shine upon the people who oppressed us! Let us died with the mark of the cross, the cross is our crowns! You think He is coming back to look for a man with KJV Only? You think He is asking you to read the Bible without understand the time, what is the time now? Are we called to quarrel for a few Bible versions? No!
No, He is coming back to look for His sheep, and even His lost sheeps. Are you one of His sheeps? Are you like Peter, whom Jesus said to him to feed His lamb, to feed His sheeps? Are you not aware of the teachings you taught in the school?
In the Bible, why Job curse his birthday!
Job 2: 9 His wife said to him, "Are you still holding on to your integrity? Curse God and die!"
Job 3:1 After this, Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth.
Did the wife laugh at him, “Happy birth? darling, sweet heart?” And they cut the cake and eat it? Were they not living in poverty for sometime? And why there is among us who is crying and no one came for help, and the world is merry and enjoying life. And end will come like a thief! God will rise up another entertainer for you! But are you want to make him to be a idol? You asked me how much I treasure friendship in Christ, theologians answered me, "There is no friendship in Christ accept the friendship in KJV!" When I heard this I mourned! How much a silver dime can buy you? Did you know money cannot bring you a friendship in Christ, not even a brother in Christ you can pay for his life, but Christ paid for them a ransom! Betray you a man who called onto the Lord?
I had sung all the Hebrew 150 psalms for a few months, and then God heard my prayer, the Shunamy came, and this time I am going to sing these Hebrew songs again, and the enemes said I am crazy when they heard me sung the psalms in Hebrew, I will call onto the Lord, until He hear my voices in the nights, my Lord, how long, you will then return?
May the Lord shine His face onto us.

8.7.09
TreaSure on earth!
The rich men on earth are angry with me because I nagging them about the richness they had.
They sung a song, "let the poor say I am rich...let the weak say I am strong...."
And then I remembered a few verses from the Bible, Matthew 6:18-20 (New International Version)
18 so that it will not be obvious to men that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
Treasures in Heaven
19 "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.
God want us to put our treasure in heaven, but some say we better put our treasure in the share markets, so that God will blessed me with more money! Some say we better put our treasures on the roads, driving a big car, life is short, living in a big mansion, because life is hard, eating good food, because that is say to enjoy life. This is the rich men's life on earth, and then they looked down to the poor men carrying the cross on the streets.
The theologian says my treasure is the KJV Bible, the ONLY BIBLE in the whole world. No other Bible on earth that can be called a Bible. They too looked down on us who read the NIV! We are poor they say in spiritual term.
Furthermore the rich Christians looked down even to those poor servant of God, that is why the elders always say this to their pastors or full time workers, "You give us the spiritual food on the pulpits, that is enough, that is your work, we take care of your physical food, that is it, you better don't interfere our management, we wanted the secular way, so that is it. We wanted to run the ministry with the secular way. Who give you the authority in controlling us? No! Stop talking Bible in our life."
They wanted to tame the pastor, to follow their secular way! And pastor has no authority over the elders! Why? Who paid the pastor? Who give you food? That is why they are happily, singing let the weak say I am strong, let the poor I am rich, you know!
Who give you the authority? Bible is our authority? Which Bible? The KJV? Only the KJV?
Secular? What type?
Some follow Paul, some follow Apollos, ....that ye all speak the same thing,....no divisions among you...(1 Cor 1:10)
there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, ARE YE NOT CARNAL? AND WALK AS MEN? ....I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal? (1 Cor 3:3-4)
They sung a song, "let the poor say I am rich...let the weak say I am strong...."
And then I remembered a few verses from the Bible, Matthew 6:18-20 (New International Version)
18 so that it will not be obvious to men that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
Treasures in Heaven
19 "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.
God want us to put our treasure in heaven, but some say we better put our treasure in the share markets, so that God will blessed me with more money! Some say we better put our treasures on the roads, driving a big car, life is short, living in a big mansion, because life is hard, eating good food, because that is say to enjoy life. This is the rich men's life on earth, and then they looked down to the poor men carrying the cross on the streets.

A booklet from a Bible Presbyterian Pastor
I received a booklet from a Bible Presbyterian pastor friend few years ago, he is a very special Christian to me, why he is, because he is different from other BP pastor. He has a widen view regarding Christianity.
In his small booklet given to me, it is written, "...in the church, some of them say baptism by immersion is good, some of them say baptism by sprinkling is good, some of them say head covering is good, every man with different understanding, so do not be proud, do not be the king, do not impose by force these things onto others....Love must be better, heart opened wide, if I do not eat meat, I cannot forced other to refrain from meat. Presently, many churches are separated, self developing, taking care of their own banner, or some of them say we must immerse into water three times, some of them say we immerse once is enough, some of them say immerse vertically, some of them say immerse with a kneeling position, all of these are not important. Because the Bible is not written in detail regarding the mode of the baptism. If the mode of baptism is effecting our salvation, the Bible will surely written more detail regarding them, so that we may obey them, in order we may not fallen away. But Bible has different dealings with Holy Communion, Bible reading, prayers, they are recorded in detail, these are very important, they are the prominent truths. There are people who are proud, they look down on others, despise other denominations, this is because their narrowness, shallow viewed. The Bible tell us, 2 Peter 1:7, "And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity...." End of that paragraph in the Booklet....
Why I bring up the mode of baptism here?
Like the mode of baptism, I hope we learned that Verbal Plenary Preservation is a personal conviction, a personal preference, a personal view, it does not effect our salvation, as far as we accepting both KJV as the English Bible, and CUV the Chinese Bible, since every faithful translation is accepting Christ as the only way of salvation, preaching the same old Gospel, Christ dies for us, and after the salvation, good works. These are the more prominent truth we must cling on! So these faithful Bible translations also including some Bible translations like NKJV, NIV, ESV. Are those prominent doctrine I mentioned missing from these Bible translations like the NKJV? Obviously, no. That is why we still accepting NKJV for a readable version.
The preservation of the Bible is not recorded in detail, some say the Bible preserved in jot and title, some say this "jot and title" means every Old Testament law and requirement are completed by Christ, some of them say this mean we must print "a perfect Bible." With many different view regarding Bible preservation, this is like the differences in the mode of baptism and head covering. We do believe Bible is preserved by God, but we must not impose those personal view on others!
The Bible is the sword of the Holy Spirit! Do not put in this way, the Holy Spirit is the sword of the Bible!
