I'm still waiting to some one to show a single verse in the bible that says the scriptures that Jesus and all the disciples read from would corrupt. Where does the fallibility of scripture come from? Any takers... anybody have a clue?

I'm also still waiting for some one to show one single error in the KJV. I've been defending the KJV for about five years and not one person has ever been able to prove a single error in the KJV. Any of you know of one?
I am going to list a couple of my favorite ones later tonight hopefully.

First, 1611, let you show us a single verse that the Lord Jesus and the disciples read from out of the King James Version. Let's see your proof that the Lord JEsus & the apostles used the KJV.

It isn't the wording that is the issue, it is the accuracy. That being said, it can be said that the KJV is the most accurate. Since there is no other version that is more accurate, why would anyone not use the KJV? Language too stilted? Studying the word of God too hard for you? Reward doesn't justify the effort? Oh, okay, I get it.

Have you confirmed with observational evidence that the KJV you are looking at is prefect & without error?



Jason retorted: Yep. Go back a few posts and you will see my three major reasons based on Scripture.

How do you know it is a nightmare? How do you know that much is changed for the worse?



I wait for you to post your observational evidence that the KJV you are looking at perfect & without error.

How do you know that it is a nightmare? If a book says it is a nightmare, how does that prove it? How do you know that much is changed for the worse? If you want to convince, we need to see the proof. Referring to unspecified books, articles, videos, and information, does not prove nor convince. Perhaps you will realize that you have no proof, but just people saying so?

Is studying the real word of God too hard for you? Reward doesn't justify the effort to read the Greek & Hebrew?

For the English speaking peoples of the World God made sure there was an accurate translation for English speaking peoples of the World.
How do you know that God thought a single translation would give the most accurate understanding of the Greek & Hebrew? How do you know that the KJV is the most accurate translation? What is your proof that satan uses original language study as a tool to misguide?

I note that everything you post is you saying it; no Bible proof. Prove your theories from the Bible or undogmatize.

No, but I can prove that since 1969 , atheist have set out on an agenda to change the bible. It's in the thread " a must read and why we need the King James". Before (and I'm guessing) this there were no other translations other than paraphrased ones such as the living and the amplified.

Side Note:

Hell is not evil. It's just the name of the thread.

Each link that says the same thing is to two different posts that I had written.

How is the KJV more 'accurate'? What are you basing that on?

The KJV is in my view the worst translation out there. It uses more modern manuscripts that contain copyist errors and notes not found in older manuscripts. The language is outdated and cumbersome.

What do you mean by error? That's not really something that applies to translation. You are using a term that is not really defined or applicable for this discussion. You are asking that because I think, your reasoning is that unless someone finds an 'error' in it it makes it the perfect one. There are no 'errors' in any of the translations. That's not how translation works.

Because i do not speak Hebrew or Greek or Aramaic. However in my younger days i did study the original languages concerning the Word. Actually satan uses that as a tool to even misguide people even more from the Truth.
That makes no sense, at all.

Having a basic understanding of Greek is really helpful when looking into scripture.

Any version that can bring a lost person to the knowledge of Jesus Christ is not an evil version. However if you are going to study the Word of God, then do it with the King James Version, which God has protected and preserved for hundreds of years and still does to this day.

KJV versus Other Versions

^i^
That a non-biblical man made tradition. The KJV is a translation. That is all. Any divination of it or its translators is unbiblical and the traditions of men.

Well, if you can prove it, Kerry, have at it.

This King James only business is just heresy. It exalts a human tradition over God's Word. No human translation is the infallible word of God.

oh
hell should be GRAVE in kjv

they sort of believed in the catholic eternal torture greek mythology so they just changed grave to hell everywhere and they even changed the definition in strongs to say so

have to ignore that one

satan burns up into ashes
and man returns to dust

there is no eternal hell

there is a lake of fire but no eternal hell in the kjv if you look up the words in strongs all references were for grave like lazaurs went to grave


so they took the word SHEOL

which means GRAVE

and turned it all to HELL except when JEsus went to SHEOL they said TOMB and when lazaurus was put in tomb they didnt say lazurus was put in hell

so they are not consistanat

hell should be sheol GRAVE

easy to prove.

come out of babylon

(pagan sun worshippers invented eternal torment.....)
bet you didnt know that...
Sheol is sheol. It does not mean grave, it means Sheol, the place of the dead.
Eternal torment was taught by Christ.

An error would be a contradiction within itself or statement that is contrary to the nature of God and the doctrines of the bible.
I can show you error after error in the modern translations.

Re: The Authorized Geneva Bible vs that Modernist KJV, unauthorized!

3. The Geneva Bible changes "HIS EYE SHALL BE EVIL TOWARD his brother", to "SHALL BE GRIEVED at his brother" in Deuteronomy (Deuteronomy 28:54 KJV).
I see people sometimes doing this with translations: "X changes such and such to...."
Translations do not 'change' one English sentence to another. They translate a Greek or Hebrew sentence into an English one. There is no 'changing'. Something is changed in second, third, fourth etc additions. That's because there was an existing English statement that was changed into something else.
