Bro. Skip:
> Yes, it was. Word == God == Jesus.
Me:
Actually the Bible says it this way: Plan IS God in the flesh IS Jesus'
death for our sins IS Holy Ghost in saints IS strength to abide. The only
'progression' is the revelation of this to each of us. This is the Rock.
MeB4:

(God's Word has none but the KJV is FULL of them ;-).
Bro. Skip:

Me:
At that time, both. Anyone wish to dig into this opened can of worms about
the fallibility of the KJV? It really is about next on the list of revived
dead topics isn't it? Is anyone keeping track?

Me:
This is the foundation. The revelation of God to me of His Spirit. God
revealed who He was/is to Peter and He revealed who He was/is to me. This
revelation is what Jesus' church is built upon. The Apostles brought it up
a 'row' and it has been built tier by tier ever since.
Bro. Skip:

Me:
They were inTARRYgating me...
Bro. Skip:
> Could it be that maybe you found the right foundation, with their help?
Me:
They were just looking on. God did the rest. :-D Praying and saying
'hallelujah' meant NOTHING to me at that time. I wasn't 'into' kneeling.
Deacon Richards then said that it would probably be better to just sit in a
chair and tell God what it was I wanted. I did. God, being God, didn't
let me down...
