Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;
And Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses and Aaron, and said unto them, I have sinned this time: the LORD is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
Intreat the LORD (for it is enough) that there be no more mighty thunderings and hail; and I will let you go, and ye shall stay no longer.
And Moses said unto him, As soon as I am gone out of the city, I will spread abroad my hands unto the LORD; and the thunder shall cease, neither shall there be any more hail; that thou mayest know how that the earth is the LORD'S.
But as for thee and thy servants, I know that ye will not yet fear the LORD God.
And the flax and the barley was smitten: for the barley was in the ear, and the flax was bolled.
But the wheat and the rie were not smitten: for they were not grown up.
And Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread abroad his hands unto the LORD: and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was not poured upon the earth.
And when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders were ceased, he sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and his servants.
This is the third part to the article series "So Many Different Bibles!" There are so many different versions of the Bible that many are wondering, “Which version is the best?” If you go to a Christian bookstore desiring to buy a Bible, are you one of those thinking, “Which Bible should I buy?” Maybe you just became a born-again Christian and decided to get a Bible for yourself but then you were surprised to see that there are so many varieties of the Bible all over the shelves of a bookstore! There should be a true authority somewhere, not many different ones. The King James Bible is the final authority of the word of God unlike the other so-called bibles. The problem with those modern versions is that they corrupt the words of God and bring utter confusion. Let’s examine more verses in the modern versions and see if they can be the true words of God.
What is contemplative prayer? Basically, a good definition for it would be: a belief system that uses ancient mystical practices to induce altered states of consciousness (the silence) and is often wrapped in Christian terminology. We shall soon see this definition to be true when continuing on about this topic. Some of its meditation techniques would be labyrinths, yoga, and breath prayers. By doing these practices, the Emergents claim they can feel and maintain a closer relationship with God’s presence. But the problem with these forms of meditation is that they are prayers to devils, not to the Almighty God. The roots of them are from Hinduism, Buddhism, the New Age, and the occult.
