CANTON, N.C. -- The Amazing Grace Baptist Church in Canton, N.C. will celebrate Halloween by burning Bibles that aren’t the King James Version, as well as music and books and anything else Pastor Marc Grizzard says is a satanic influence.
Among the authors whose books Grizzard plans to burn are well known ministers Rick Warren and Billy Graham because he says they have occasionally used Bibles other than the King James Version, which is the sole biblical source he considers infallible.
According to the church’s Web site, members will also burn “Satan's music such as country, rap, rock, pop, heavy metal, western, soft and easy, southern gospel, contemporary Christian, jazz, soul (and) oldies.
“We will also be burning Satan's popular books written by heretics like Billy Graham, Rick Warren, Bill Hybels, John McArthur, James Dobson, Charles Swindoll, John Piper, Chuck Colson, Tony Evans, Oral Roberts, Jimmy Swagart, Mark Driskol, Franklin Graham, Bill Bright, Tim Lahaye, Paula White, T.D. Jakes, Benny Hinn, Joyce Myers, Brian McLaren, Robert Schuller, Mother Teresa, The Pope, Rob Bell, Erwin McManus, Donald Miller, Shane Claiborne, Brennan Manning (and) William Young.
During the book burning, according to the Web site, barbecued chicken fried chicken and “all the sides” will be served

Nazis burned books they did not agree with... God is bigger than any religion, even yours.
dont take this too far these people are doing that. i agree with them i think some of the people they spoke of are more of doing a show than serving GOD however i think that its not their place to burn any holy bible. i think they should let GOD judge these people. "love the sinner hate the sin". how bout we try and live our life for GOD and not worry what others do. THIS IS NOT ALL CHRISTIANS SO U GUYS TRY NOT TO JUDGE ALL CHRISTIANS BY WHAT THIS CHURCH DOES.
how many words were taken away from the king james translation...sorry i mean how many were taketh away?
