I wouldn't trust the kjv knowing about the process of the TR and Erasmus if someone paid me a trillion dollars.
I did not ask you to trust the KJV. Go and check out all the modern versions and then retract your baloney. It does no one a service to post false information about the Bible.

As to the KJB, you have just shown your ignorance. But we do not need to discuss the KJB.

It's not a matter of checking any version. It's about how those specific verses got in there and how they were used improperly. We have a complete church history about it had you read the SCHOLARS/THEOLOGIANS!!

Getting back to the topic .. 😀😃

So. What we began with was the distinction in when the Holy Spirit works on the individual and when He is empowering groups/churches.

So if I assume the disciples who believed and were baptized unto John's baptism did not have the Holy Spirit indwelling their soul.. how does that compare with those who had the Holy Spirit indwelling them right at the time of belief?
