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.

It seems to me, that statements like this make ME believe that they've made an IDOL of a certain object.

From what is NOT said; do they believe that GOD did NOT preserve His words in any OTHER 'English' translation?


What if a person is NOT an 'English speaker'?

How's GOD gonna 'speak' to them??
