When I was a young boy I was very competitive. Actually I still am, but my salvation has tempered my zeal and helped me to have correct priorities. But when I was little I reeeeeaaally hated to lose. And there were times when I would lose a race or game to someone else. In my [...]

What we have here is a failure to communicate!

Zero Percent So Far

Zero percent. Oh-for-eight. No one has been able to answer my question so far. I am sure they are out there, but I have not found them yet. I have asked this question of 8 people who use the King James Version: Two laymen who are King James Only (KJVO); one pastor that teaches and [...]
