When I was in the COOLJC, every now and then they'd have everyone stand for testimony service and one by one recite a Scripture...mercy!!
Invaribaly, someone would say, with their most spiritual voice, "When I THINK of the goodness of Jesus, and ALL He has done for me...my SOUL cries out, HALLELUJAH, praise God for saving me!!"
Isaiah 28:11 “For with stammering lips and another tongue He will speak to this people, To whom He said, “This is the rest with which you may cause the weary to rest,” and, “This is the refreshing”; yet they would not hear.”
This passage has nothing to do with the baptism of the Holy Ghost!
You are correct !!!
It was this passage that I was studying when I started thinking about Moses and his stammering lips
Stammering lips is not a doctrine of the biblle !!

1 Kings 18:44 The seventh time the servant reported, "A cloud as small as a man's hand is rising from the sea." So Elijah said, "Go and tell Ahab, 'Hitch up your chariot and go down before the rain stops you.' "
Hey, you're right! "As small as" is so not the same as "the size of"!
What translation is this because the KJV doesn't say that. The KJV says, "like a man's hand".
A few weeks back I was in a service when the Evangelist quoted Acts 2:37
Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
(he added) to be saved.
(that's not what it says)

That was the "Personal Amplified Version of the Bible" and if Peter had known there were going to be folks trying to twist his words he would have added it!

NIV. When I posted it, I didn't even notice it wasn't KJV. But isn't the meaning clear, regardless? The point was that even though it was just a little (even KJV says that!) cloud on the horizon, Elijah knew that the rain was coming.
(Does only KJV-butchering count? )
