Just recently we have seen countless cut and past jobs about how the King James is Gods only true Bible and all other versions are basically Satans, including the New King James, which by reading these versions by satan you will go to Hell or as a minister condemn your congregation to Hell.
I could start the usual way, which you get the same responses, rather like debating athiests and evolutionists, so I will not go down the usual routes or pick on the main points, but instead look at a number of verses which this cult takes exception to, just a quick look at these should be enough to show you how foolish they are and if they can not get even the most basic things right then why should they be trusted with the rest of their claims? If someone tells you that 2+2 =9 then you are not going to trust or even believe them when they tell you what they think the answer to 2342323 x 2343 is, so it is with King James Only Cult.
I recently responded to another cut and paste job which repeated everything on this website The New King James Bible: Counterfeit, telling me why the New King James was just as bad as the other versions as it had the same wording and changes used in what this cult perceive to be Satans Bible. There is a wealth of verses to pick and choose to show the intellecutal stupidity, but here are just two to start with.
I look forward to see what Chosenbyhim has to say regarding this.
Turning Isaacs wife Rebekah into a Cannibal.
One of the issues highlighted is Genesis 24:47, aparently this is one of the errors in the satanic versions of the Bible which will send you to hell.
The use of Nose ring is correct, its the use of Ear ring which is incorrect.
How can you take this cults claims serious reading this? It should be basic common knowledge that many cultures use nose rings for marriage and engagement. I can not believe people still have blinkered and racist view that a nose ring is only found on primitive forest dwelling tribes who eat people, but here we have it, clear as day.
You only have to look to India, a country which still sees its women wearing nose rings, sure for the wedding, huge elaborate expensive nose rings are worn, but every day we see tiny rings or more popular nose studs being worn.
So the verse in question, in context it is where Abrahams servant is out looking for a wife for Isaac, God tells him that right person will come along, ask questions, and get correct response and actions and she is to be the wife, verse 47 then shows how she is instantly betrothed and is given a nose ring to show this. I have the relevant verses end of this post.
We can examine this further by looking at original texts, the Strongs numbering for this disputed word is as follows.
Strong's Number: 05141
Original Word : ~n
Transliterated Word : Nexem
Definition : ring, nose ring, earring
nose ring (woman's ornament)
earring (ornament of men or women)
Therefore it is clear we are talking about a nose ring, so according to King James only cult anyone who wears a nosering is a Cannibal and that its not really a nosering, but an ear ring, when in fact we see nose rings worn today as a symbol of betrothal and marriage, then you must see how this is a Ridiculous statement to make. If even something so simple as this is declared an error, then how can you trust the rest of the claims ?
Genesis 24
: 43 Behold, I stand by the well of water; and it shall come to pass, that when the virgin cometh forth to draw water, and I say to her, Give me , I pray thee, a little water of thy pitcher to drink ;
44 And she say to me, Both drink thou, and I will also draw for thy camels: let the same be the woman whom the LORD hath appointed out for my master's son
45 And before I had done speaking in mine heart, behold, Rebekah came forth with her pitcher on her shoulder; and she went down unto the well, and drew water: and I said unto her, Let me drink , I pray thee.
46 And she made haste , and let down her pitcher from her shoulder, and said , Drink , and I will give thy camels drink also: so I drank , and she made the camels drink also.
47 And I asked her, and said , Whose daughter art thou? And she said , The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor's son, whom Milcah bare unto him: and I put the earring upon her face, and the bracelets upon her hands
. 48 And I bowed down my head , and worshipped the LORD, and blessed the LORD God of my master Abraham, which had led me in the right way to take my master's brother's daughter unto his son.

Genesis 24:47: The "old" KJV reads: "I put the earring upon her face". But the NKJV has different plans for beautiful Rebekah: "I put the nose ring on her nose". Where did it get the ridiculous idea to "cannibalize" Rebekah? Just take a peek at the NIV, NASV, RSV, NRSV!
