again...So.....God spoke all there is into existence but He can't keep His message pure through different translations??? Cmon man...are you really saying the KJV is God's pure Word? You know it to is a translation, right? What about if it's translated to mandarin or farsi? Stop putting limits on what God can do.

John 14:26 "But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you."
You've got to have read what God has said in order for the Holy Spirit to teach you and bring it to your remembrance.

Actually, both words are acceptable, but murder is listed first in BAGD or Bauer. In fact, Bauer even lists Romans 13:9 as an example for the word, foneuseis or φονεύσεις, which is the Future Indicative Active, 2nd person, singular.
Paul actually quotes from the Septuagint, not the Hebrew, because the commandments are not listed in the same order as the Hebrew. As far as the difference between kill and murder, I think essentially they are almost the same thing! At least as far as people are concerned. Because if you kill a person, you are murdering them, right? However, in defense of the KJV, perhaps the meaning has changed over 400 years. Maybe kill implied murder? But against the KJV, by using the larger meaning of kill, this has the implication that even the state kills a person as punishment for a crime it is wrong. And killing would also encompass accidental death, unintentional manslaughter because that would be killing and therefore against God's law.
Lots of implications in these words. But as a translator, I would have to go with murder, not kill, at least in modern English.

I see we've got a new radical twist on Galatians 4.
By ~50 A.D. Paul new there would be dissenters on a version of the Bible that would come out some 1550 years later. As a result, he wrote Gal 4:16 to expose non-KJVOist as enemies of the truth.
The more the KJVO-ists reveal themselves, the more disgusting they become.

...they can read news on the internet, books that are newly released, newspapers, comics, Christianchat, etc.
Show them a Bible that is not a KJV, though, and they are suddenly incoherent, incompetent, and illiterate. Some will even whine and ask that people please post using the KJV, being so lazy that they can't look up the passages in their chosen version on their own.
You may be onto something, Tintin.
p.s. - I bet a few KJVO-ists will somehow manage to figure out this is post portrays them in a negative sense, even though I intentionally am not writing in KJV style writing!
