True, and it's always the same one - satan.
The serpent was the one who got Eve to doubt God’s Word. You may not be aware of this, but Bart Erhman and Rick Beckman attacked the KJV and they were in favor Textual Criticism. Today, they are both unbelievers. That’s what happens when you go down the road of doubting God’s Word. Many who went to Bible College have even lost their faith when they learned of the false Science of Textual Criticism.

It seems like you are doubting certain places in the Bible by saying it has errors in it when it teaches no such thing. Only you are saying the Bible has errors in it. How on Earth do you think Jesus is going to judge us? John 12:48 says if we do not receive His words, they will judge us on the last day. But that is not possible if His words are full of errors or holes. How could you trust His Word if it has errors in it. It would destroy the trustworthiness of the Bible. Man would be the real authority if He decided what God said and did not say. Your position is illogical and self defeating. Either everything God said in His Word is true, or it is false. I simply choose to believe God and His Word by faith.

Remember, Scripture says that Satan came and took away the Word out of a person’s heart.
In short, Satan takes away the Word.
This is exactly what we see in Modern Bibles.
1 John 5:7 is removed. This is the only direct reference of the Trinity in the whole Bible.

You're apparently somewhat of a "leader" yourself, since you're selling the "KJVO fantasy line".
Again, I don’t think you understand the topic all too well. I think you just bought into the lies by Modern Scholars, and never bothered to check what they say is actually true or not. Then again if you are liberal and you don’t want the precise words of God and you like the idea of a Bible that keeps shape shifting every few years, then nothing I say here will really matter and you will just keep throwing around false slander.

Look, I will give you the benefit of the doubt. Maybe you never did a deep search for the truth on this topic. Maybe you never did a deep comparison of the changed doctrines that are for the worse and not for the better in Modern Bibles. Maybe you do not know how many rank heretics that are tied to the origins of the Modern Bible Movement. Perhaps you do not know about the employed deceptions by the Modern Bible movement. Maybe you are ignorant of KJV Bible history and how the hand of God was upon the KJV and its good fruit.

AS I stated before, I'm definitely a "KJVP" using the KJV as my preferred translation (Learned to read in it back in "47/"48. I DO NOT, however ascribe to the silly fallacy that the KJV is anything like PERFECT, or without lousy translations of passages, and/or outright ERROR (both real and imagined. YOU can delude yourself into believing that it is ABSOLUTELY PERFECT, if you want (apparently already have).
According to James White you would be KJV-onlyist (accordng to his book) even if you just prefer the KJV.

You said:
However I CAN Declare the Bible (in whatever version) as completely ADEQUATE to its purpose as the WRITTEN RECORD of God's word.
So the watering down of the blood atonement, the deity of Christ ia acceptable?
What about the ESV teaching Jesus had a beginning in Micah 5:2?

You said:
Most Modern translations are also completely ADEQUATE to their purpose as the WRITTEN RECORD of God's Word. I wouldn't trust the "Inspired version (Mormon), or the "New World Version (JWs),
How do you know? Did you read all 900 plus Modern Bibles?
Did it not ever occur to you that they are being made primarily for money?

but the NIV, or OASV, or LIVING all tell the same story, and JESUS promised that TRUTH / FAITH comes from God's WORD TO YOU via the Holy Spirit, and WISDOM is freely given if you ask (as long as you ask single-mindedly) and it'll never disagree with the Bible text. It will often and DOES disgree with "Man's Theology" but that's unimportant unless you take "Man's theology" too seriously. IGNORANCE of the Biblical text renders you FAIR GAME foe deception.
Which NIV? There are multiple NIV editions. The recent NIV says today that Jesus was angry when He healed the leper and yet the previous NIV of the past did not say this. Some new and exciting manuscript discovery changed it and yet they did not think things through theologically. It’s just dumb. Not even all the NKJV Bible editions say the same things. It’s just silly. Then again, you are probably not aware of a fraction of the information I know on this topic.
