Nothing could be further from the truth. God's Word is inspired into whatever language it is translated. How could the Bible not be inspired?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;blockquote style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; widows: 2; orphans: 2"&gt; &lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;I am sad for any congregation whose pastor misleads them concerning the Word of God. To claim that only the originals are inspired is heresy. To claim that the King James Bible is divinely preserved without being inspired is ridiculous and an utter heresy. How can God's Word be divinely preserved into any language without also being divinely inspired? It is impossible! Anyone who denies the inspiration of the King James Bible is a false prophet.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;blockquote style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; widows: 2; orphans: 2"&gt; &lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;It is not only the originals which are inspired, but also the different languages into which God's Word is translated. Contrary to popular theological teaching, the originals are NOT even found in Hebrew, Greek and Chaldean. According to Psalm 119:89, the originals existed in Heaven before the first Word in Genesis was ever given to mankind. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;b&gt;Psalm 119:89, “For ever, O LORD, Thy word is settled in heaven.” &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span &gt;The originals are in Heaven.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;blockquote style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; widows: 2; orphans: 2"&gt; &lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;Please don't be deceived, many false prophets are deceitful with their words. If your pastor says he believes that the Bible is inspired, ask him if he believes that the King James Bible is inspired? If your pastor says he believes that the King James Bible is a divinely preserved translation of the inspired Word of God, ask him again if he believes if the King James Bible is inspired? That is the big question... does your so-called Christian leader believe that the King James Bible is God's inspired Words? I say to you truthfully, the King James Bible is INSPIRED word-for-word.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;blockquote style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; widows: 2; orphans: 2"&gt; &lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;Please do not misunderstand. I am not saying that God gave a new revelation to the King James translators. I don't know anyone who believes that. I am saying that the King James translators produced an inspired text, since the texts they translated from were inspired. God has divinely preserved His inspired Words in the inspired King James Bible. There is no greater battle today than over the inspiration of the Bible. Why would any pastor shake his congregation's faith in the Bible? If the originals only exist in some museum in Europe, then we're all in a heap of trouble.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;blockquote style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; widows: 2; orphans: 2"&gt; &lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;Psalm 138:2 says that God has magnified His Word above His holy name. It is a critically important matter to God. Once a pastor attacks the inspiration of the King James Bible, then it's only downhill spiritually from there. To attack the inspiration of the Bible is to lay ax to the very root of the Christian faith, for the Word of God is the precious Seed by which men are born-again (1st Peter 1:23).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;blockquote style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; widows: 2; orphans: 2"&gt; &lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;God hath chosen the poor, despised and lowly things of this world to confound the wise. It is rich and arrogant men who attack the Bible; It is broken, suffering and lowly men who defend it. If you don't have a King James Bible, then you have a deception.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;blockquote style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; widows: 2; orphans: 2"&gt; &lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;Please don't be deceived, the King James Bible is God's preserved &lt;b&gt;AND INSPIRED&lt;/b&gt; Words. If your pastor doesn't believe that the King James Bible is inerrant, preserved, infallible and inspired, then please find a Christ-honoring church.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;blockquote style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; widows: 2; orphans: 2"&gt; &lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;The pastor of a very large church recently distributed a booklet to thousands of people, calling those who believe in the inspiration of the King James Bible “rats in the woodpile,” “hillbillies,” “ignorant clergy” and “barbarians.” The pastor said those who say the King James is inspired have “shot themselves in the foot,” and are “espousing Catholic or Charismatic theology.” I guess I'm a big rat then, because I DO believe that the King James Bible is 100% inspired, inerrant, infallible and preserved by God. I must be an ignorant barbaric hillbilly.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;blockquote style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; widows: 2; orphans: 2"&gt; &lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;The truth is that such pastors have made Satan very glad, shaking people's faith in the Word of Life. My question is... with all the hordes of Hell attacking the Church today, why would any pastor attack the Word of God? It's apostasy! I mean, it's like a general on the battlefield criticizing the weaponry instead of attacking the enemy. We're at spiritual war! Stop tampering with the weapon! There's nothing wrong with our Sword. &lt;b&gt;Hebrews 4:12, “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;blockquote style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; widows: 2; orphans: 2"&gt; &lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;Please don't be deceived, the King James Bible is God's preserved &lt;b&gt;AND INSPIRED&lt;/b&gt; Words. The King James Bible is a divinely preserved translation of the inspired Words of God and is therefore also INSPIRED! I just don't understand how anyone could say that the King James Bible is not inspired, while believing that it was translated from inspired texts. It pains me greatly to hear a pastor denying the inspiration of the beloved King James Bible.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p align="CENTER" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; widows: 2; orphans: 2"&gt; &lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;i&gt;Job 32:8, &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;“&lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;i&gt;But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.”&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;hr width="536" align="CENTER" &gt; &lt;blockquote style="line-height: 0.42in; text-align: center; widows: 2; orphans: 2"&gt; &lt;span &gt;“&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal"&gt;I must have every Word if I speak His message. If I didn't think I had a perfect Bible I'd close this one, walk out that door, I'd never walk in the pulpit again.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal"&gt;—&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/Books,%20Tracts%20&amp;amp;%20Preaching/Printed%20Sermons/Dr%20Jack%20Hyles/get_your_stinking_feet.htm"&gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;span &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: normal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal"&gt;Dr. Jack Hyles&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0in"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2000450572374743034-70323569485587263?l=eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com/feeds/70323569485587263/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com/2010/08/king-james-bible-is-inspired.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2000450572374743034/posts/default/70323569485587263'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2000450572374743034/posts/default/70323569485587263'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com/2010/08/king-james-bible-is-inspired.html' title='The King James Bible is Inspired'/><author><name>Bro.Bell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00035268016629189689</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2000450572374743034.post-7088600983852572002</id><published>2010-08-28T08:47:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-08-28T08:54:04.335-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='My Utmost for His Highest'/><title type='text'>What's The Good Of Prayer?</title><content type='html'>&lt;br /&gt;What's The Good Of Prayer?&lt;br /&gt;“Lord, teach us to pray.”&lt;br /&gt;Luke 11:1&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is not part of the life of a natural man to pray. We hear it said that a man will suffer in his life if he does not pray; I question it. What will suffer is the life of the Son of God in him, which is nourished not by food, but by prayer. When a man is born from above, the life of the Son of God is born in him, and he can either starve that life or nourish it. Prayer is the way the life of God is nourished. Our ordinary views of prayer are not found in the New Testament. We look upon prayer as a means of getting things for our selves; the Bible idea of prayer is that we may get to know God Himself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Ask and ye shall receive." We grouse before God, we are apologetic or apathetic, but we ask very few things. Yet what a splendid audacity a childlike child has! Our Lord says - "Except ye become as little children." Ask, and God will do. Give Jesus Christ a chance, give Him elbow room, and no man will ever do this unless he is at his wits' end. When a man is at his wits' end it is not a cowardly thing to pray, it is the only way he can get into touch with Reality. Be yourself before God and present your problems, the things you know you have come to your wits' end over. As long as you are self-sufficient, you do not need to ask God for anything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is not so true that "prayer changes things" as that prayer changes me and I change things. God has so constituted things that prayer on the basis of Redemption alters the way in which a man looks at things. Prayer is not a question of altering things externally, but of working wonders in a man's disposition.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2000450572374743034-7088600983852572002?l=eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com/feeds/7088600983852572002/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com/2010/08/whats-good-of-prayer.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2000450572374743034/posts/default/7088600983852572002'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2000450572374743034/posts/default/7088600983852572002'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com/2010/08/whats-good-of-prayer.html' title='What&apos;s The Good Of Prayer?'/><author><name>Bro.Bell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00035268016629189689</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2000450572374743034.post-3463394781089811548</id><published>2010-05-10T19:51:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-10T20:51:34.413-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.eaglesviewbaptistchurch.com"&gt;&lt;img src="http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/3900/642953346bd7920m3.gif" border="0" width="425" height="75" alt="BannerFans.com" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;textarea style="font: 10px Verdana, Helvetica; color: #cccccc; background: #141414; border: 1px #000000 solid; width: 250px;" cols="40" rows="3" wrap="auto"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.eaglesviewbaptistchurch.com"&gt;&lt;img src="http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/3900/642953346bd7920m3.gif" border="0" width="728" height="90" alt="Powered by BannerFans.com" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2000450572374743034-3463394781089811548?l=eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com/feeds/3463394781089811548/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com/2010/05/bannerfanscom.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2000450572374743034/posts/default/3463394781089811548'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2000450572374743034/posts/default/3463394781089811548'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com/2010/05/bannerfanscom.html' title=''/><author><name>Bro.Bell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00035268016629189689</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2000450572374743034.post-4117692269086422309</id><published>2010-01-11T20:34:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-11T20:39:47.763-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Jesus is Coming soon !!!

How sad is his case indeed, if he must be dead to worldly pleasures and yet never hope for any better!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Matthew Henry&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2000450572374743034-7655066654564416722?l=eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com/feeds/7655066654564416722/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com/2009/11/no-resurrection-no-hope.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2000450572374743034/posts/default/7655066654564416722'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2000450572374743034/posts/default/7655066654564416722'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://eaglesviewbaptistchurch.blogspot.com/2009/11/no-resurrection-no-hope.html' title='No Resurrection--No Hope'/><author><name>Bro.Bell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00035268016629189689</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2000450572374743034.post-8994057639366794499</id><published>2009-11-13T11:59:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-13T12:00:53.824-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Why We Believe Jesus Rose from the Dead:</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); "&gt;&lt;h2 style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 10px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 5px; background-image: none; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; "&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.eaglesviewbaptistchurch.com/in-touch/in-touch/why-we-believe-jesus-rose-from-the-dead-" title="Why We Believe Jesus Rose from the Dead:" target="_self" style="color: rgb(26, 144, 226); "&gt;Why We Believe Jesus Rose from the Dead:&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;div style="font-size: 11px; padding-left: 5px; "&gt;Posted by R Bell on Tuesday, October 20, 2009 Under: &lt;a href="http://www.eaglesviewbaptistchurch.com/in-touch/in-touch/category/Resurrection" title="View more from Resurrection" target="_self" style="color: rgb(26, 144, 226); "&gt;Resurrection&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postcontent" style="padding-top: 1px; padding-right: 5px; padding-bottom: 1px; padding-left: 5px; height: auto; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 17px; font-size: 12px; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); "&gt;If Jesus did not rise from the dead, the Christian faith is a foolish fantasy. However, if the resurrection of Christ did occur, it confirms His life, message, and atoning work. It is the basis of our hope of life beyond the grave. Christ is alive, and the evidence is overwhelming. Here are some of the reasons we can be so sure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Jesus predicted His resurrection (Matt 16:21; Mark 9:9-10; John 2:18-22).&lt;br /&gt;2. The Old Testament prophesied it (Psalm 16:10; compare Acts 2:25-31; 13:33-37).&lt;br /&gt;3. The tomb was empty and the grave clothes vacant. if those who opposed Christ wished to silence His disciples, all they had to do was produce a body, but they could not (John 20:3-9).&lt;br /&gt;4. Many people saw the resurrected Christ. They looked on His face, touched Him, heard His voice, and saw Him eat (Matt. 28:16-20; Luke 24:13-39; John 20:11-29; John 21:1-9; Acts 1:6-11; 1 Cor. 15:3-8).&lt;br /&gt;5. The lives of the disciples were revolutionized. Though they fled and even denied Christ at the time of His arrest, they later feared no one in their proclamation of the risen Christ (Matt 26:56, 69-75).6. The resurrection was the central message of the early church. The church grew with an unwavering conviction that Christ had risen and was the Lord of the church (Acts 4:33; 5:30-32; Rom. 5:24).&lt;br /&gt;6. Men and women today testify that the power of the risen Christ has transformed their lives. We know that Jesus is alive not only because of the historical and biblical evidence but also because He has miraculously touched our lives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kurt E.
