So they are part of the Bible right? Did you know that there is a pattern in the Bible of that which comes later or latter is better than the former or first?

All English Bibles have the Chapter and verse divisions. There is nothing unique about the KJV regarding that. But they are a modern addition. They are not the same in the Greek & Hebrew texts. Others have explained this to you already. "Modern" includes the KJV.

I would hope there are! If you used a Bible with no chapter and verse divisions in a language you cannot read that would be a step backwards!

To point out that the King James Bible is the word of God and that it is in perfect order. It is actually the pattern of the number 47 I have been studying lately but I had to mention the number 46 first.

“If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?” (John 3:12)

This is the only real point to this. Trying to add an aura of validity to the KJVO Cult. It's not working, you are just making the KJVO position look even more unhinged.

What happens when your numbers game fails? Does your faith fail as well?

This has already been explained to you - they are NOT part of the original inspired text!

The King James Bible is a the word of God. I make no apologies and if any one makes an honest effort to examine it they will reach the same conclusion.

The original inspired text (manuscripts) that you haven't seen and do not exist anymore? You know which ones I am talking about, The ones that turned to dust just like our bodies will someday! (unless you are a Bible believing christian when Jesus returns and you are alive at that time)

I don't deny the KJVersion is the word of God. So is the NIV which I prefer. And I make no apologies for that.

Then why take issue with me pointing out that there is orderly pattern and structure in the King James Bible?

In the last few posts you have made it plain that you are KJVO, or so it seems - feel free to correct me on this one if am wrong.
If this is the case, then, as seems sadly to be the case with KJVO people, it is just the tip of the iceberg of doctrinal madness...

I am pointing out that the King James Bible is the word of God. I am not King James only in the sense you are using it. I believe in freedom of religion and you are free to read any bible you like. Why are you contrary with me? I did not even mention another bible on this thread in a negative manner. you are upset because i point out things that are factual in the King James Bible!

Because I don't believe you. I think you are being led a merry dance.

Upset no.
Ludicrous in a funny way, yes.

What happens if what you regard as factual in the KJV is not to be found in another translation?

Didn't the serpent say something like that to Eve? What a waste of time it would be. I already believe The Bible.

You know Magenta, when I am as old as you I want to be as sharp as you are - and I want you to live to be a hundred!
Great value!

Yes, as old as I am :eek: I have felt rather fuzzy today, so it is nice to know I am still seen as being sharp, even at this advanced stage of my decrepitude :D I just turned 63 less than two weeks ago. Considering how many times I almost died as a non-believing, drug abusing, co-dependent, professionally practicing pagan alcoholic, it is truly a wonder I have lived this long. And you are not that far behind me heeheehee :) Thank you :eek:
