Dr. Brice E. vickery:

It would appear that "Emerging" is misleading since as I remember Revelations giving us a dire warning:XX11:18
For I protest unto every man that heareth the wordes of this prophecie of this boke, if any man shal adde unto these things, God shall adde unto him the plagues, that are writen in this boke.

XX11:19 And if any man that diminish of the wordes of the book of this prophecie, God shall take away his parte out of the Boke of life, and out of the holie citie, and from those things which are written in this boke. Geneva Bible, 1592 edition which you all and King James removed the commentaries which puts the spotlight of God on you and your ilk. You see no matter how you twist and turn this is the bible which was in the hands of the patriots and the vast majority of the American people. 90% were Christian then and had the stomach for what had to be done. Even in this day we are 78% but they might be counting you in this number which would certainly diminish that amount.
