Sadly, it is my experience that the most vocal and learned of the evangelical sects just can not comprehend the idea that despite their best arguments and fervent belief, God may not agree with what they “KNOW” the Bible tells them (i.e. interpretation).

I'm not sure that evangelical is the precise adjective to describe this group of Independent Fundamental Baptists, although I don't see them use that term Fundamental on their website. It seems to me that term has fallen from grace, so to speak.

From Hyles Anderson What We Believe page

  1. God has divinely preserved His words for English-speaking people in the King James Version. The King James Version is the translation used in any and all ministries of First Baptist Church for English-speaking people.

And there are others who...

... may agree with what their religious organizational headquarters tell them what GOD wants them to know:

Via interpretation, tradition, extra biblical 'teachings', visits by apparitions, and ignoring what is PLAINLY written in Scripture.
