“How can you call these people “uninspired” as it was these people who safely guarded and passed down the BIBLE to us.”
I believe the scriptures are God-breathed. I don’t believe that is true of the creeds. But I won’t take offense if you believe the creeds are inspired.
“By YOUR standards the translators of the KJV and all other Bibles were vile lost men.”
If you point me to the place I made that statement, I would appreciate it. If you can’t, then you’re making things up and I see no need to continue our discussion.
However, I have appreciated the irenic spirit of your comments on this thread.

Are you then admitting that men who were Presbyterian and Anglican, and sprinkled for remission of sin can translate a bible that you will accept?
I have a full list of the KJV translators if you are interested. Won’t see a Campbellite in the group.
And if you are interested in the Genevea bible I can show you a printed prayer in the back against “the Papists and the Anabaptists”.

I talked to a local CoC preacher I worked with a few years ago.
I asked, “The Eastern Orthodox believe in immersion baptism. Are they correct?”
He said..”Yes, they are correct.
I said...”Will you then accept them as brothers in the Lord?”
He said...”NO! because it was not done by one of our preachers!”
That told me what I wanted to know. Will YOU accept Eastern Orthodox as brothers in the Lord, and if not, why not!
