Psst... I think you mean literary forms. Also, "simile" and "metaphor" are merely types of figurative language, not literary forms in themselves. :)

You don't understand Christian salvation, so stop pretending that you do. In your distorted understanding, a person is still a sinner if they break the law, and still under its penalty, which is death. Your false "salvation" doesn't change anything.

You offer thanks to God by saying, "Thanks, God". It's that simple. As to your income, you are free to use it as you see fit, though I would encourage you to use some of it to support your local Christian fellowship (if you have one) and to support organizations that further the kingdom of God...

Only, you don’t. If you did, you wouldn’t continually badger people and you would have rigorous integrity.

Ask the person who started the thread.

Well, I have a simple question for those who believe that God has no sense of humour: From where did it come, if not from Him? Are we made in His image or not?

Steven Anderson is a foul-mouthed boor, and I won't listen to nine minutes of him. Either tell me the time reference where White is quoted saying that the KJV is Old English, or try again.

NIV "God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished" All of the sins committed between Adam and Christ...

2 Cor 1:22 KJ21: "the pledge of the Spirit in our hearts" CEB: "the Spirit as a down payment in our hearts" CJB: "his Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee for the future" ESV: "his Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee" NIV: "his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come"...
