    KJV and God preserving His Word

    by MikeWatson1

    I have understood the preservation of God's Word thru all generations to be the available access to translate the original copies. I have heard though the teaching that the KJV, and older Bibles before it are the only ones that have preserved it rightly. I am not sure about this and would like to know how someone arrived at this teaching. I believe the Bible is inerrant, infallible etc..but have understood that to be the original copies.. not later translations. The flaw in this is that God is preserving the Word in all generations..and so the original copies aren't that. I thought that that flaw in reasoning is mitigated by the fact of the original…

    Are there English or other language translations of the New Testament Greek that both predate the KJV and are recognized as inspired translations?

    The Free Bible

    by TheGloryLand

    The truest free bible, is the King James Bible. You will not need any special permission to use it, in your Bible teaching or reference. Does this applies to the the New King James Bible? I donā€™t know, newest is not always better. How much longer can the KJ Bible, stay on top, the number one Bible. Only time will tell, before your church sells out. Sad Take Care

    If you could read Hebrew and Greek 1 2 3 4 7

    by KJV1611AV

    Would you ever choose to read your Bible this way? Surely your understanding would be better if you could read straight from where the KJV was translated from right? I am asking b/c i may have a chance here shortly to study one or both of the languages and am thinking it would be a blessing to be able to read straight from the originals. What do you guys think?

    Why did God used a evil king to make a great Bible, King James 1 2

    by TheGloryLand

    God used this evil king, King James, to make a great Bible, along with great men. scholars of the days, and those men that fear God, they also feared the king. Donā€™t mess up, or off with your head.

    Did Adam Have A Priestly Position? Reading 'Searching for ADAM, Terry Mortenson, Editor He contrasts the verbs of Genesis 2:15 with the verbs in Numbers 3:7-10. Adams job description with that of the Levitical Priesthood. I thought the possibility intriguing enough to garner thoughts from others. Adam the first created priest! Personally, having yet to compare other scripture, I will be looking further.

    Hi everyone. Are Bibles in other languages that are translated from the Textus Receptus perfect just like the KJV is or is the KJV the only perfect Bible in any language?

    Bibles That Remove Or Confuse The Deity Of Christ 1 2 3 4

    by Jerry

    BrotherTony asked me to show where some modern versions remove or change passages about the deity of Christ, hence this thread. Robert Bratcher who "translated" the Good News Bible did not believe Jesus was good, so his translation was done in such a way as to present his doctrinal stance. Here are some examples: Acts 20:28 So keep watch over yourselves and over all the flock which the Holy Spirit has placed in your care. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he made his own through the blood of his Son. Does not declare God shed His own blood - therefore ruining a verse teaching Christ is both God and man, and that it was His blood that purchased our salvati…

    Do members still carry their bibles to church

    by TheGloryLand

    I donā€™t think so, it doesnā€™t look like many more still do. Some I probably think, says itā€™s old fashion. I have it on my cell, or tablet. Many donā€™t know, after changing their cell phone and downloading it again the app, it removes all prior notes and highlights. šŸ«¤ Bring your Bible to church

    Large Block Capital Letters in KJV 1 2 3 4

    by Bro. West

    I wrote a piece on this subject at hand about ten years ago, which still can be found on line. I know how it ties in with BRANCH and the four gospel (inscriptions on the cross, Jesus name at birth and elsewhere) and how these show up in other places. This writing on LBCS It was lengthy but I am sure I overlooked something. There are those that teach that there are no valid reasons, but as a Bible Believer I know better

    Mark 16:9 1 2 3 4 8

    by rstrats

    A poster on another forum, the topic of which was questioning the authenticity of the last 12 verses in the book of Mark, wrote that it doesn't really matter because there is no doctrinal teaching in Mark 16:9-20 that cannot be proved elsewhere in agreed Scripture. I made the mistake of sticking my nose into the discussion by pointing out that actually there is a statement in verse 9, as the KJV and similar versions have it, which is used for a doctrinal teaching that is to be found nowhere else in Scripture. As the KJV and similar versions translate it, it is the only place that puts the resurrection on the first day of the week. I then suggested that whenever the d…

    What's the Big Deal Saying KJV1611?

    by Pastor Matt

    This topic is not to discuss the accuracy of the KJV or other translations, but to discuss the use of saying "I use the KJV 1611 Bible" Is it wrong to say that we use the KJV 1611 or should we say KJV 1763? A common argument against the KJV is to say that we don't use the 1611 Bible but rather the 1763. I understand what took place in the English language for the updates that took place in 1763, and I also understand why I say KJV 1611. Nobody that I'm aware of says that the Bible I read is the original KJV 1611 style, but the foundation was from the KJV 1611. It seems that that logic that is thrown in the KJV faces only applies to the Bible. I drive a 2013…

    Thoughts about an update to the KJV? 1 2 3 4 11

    by BibleBeliever5

    Hi, I would love to hear the communityā€™s feedback about using an update to the King James Version. I love the KJV. But the language is basically 400 year-old English. So if there were a simple and accurate update to the KJV that made no changes except updating the old language, would you want to use it? What would be your thoughts generally about such an update? Would you like it as a stand alone version, or as a parallel Bible with the current KJV? It would be great to hear what you all think. May God be glorified. In Christ, Joseph
