If KJV is not inspired then which and where is Word of God? Modern Versions would not fit also into this category since they too are translations. Then again, if it is not inspired, how can it have been used to bring million to Christ? I agree, if salvation is under discussion, I believe it can also be found even in a Bible tracts or the meanest version we have out there in every bookshelf, bookstores, library, hospitals etc., but the issue is not salvation, it is the Word of God. KJV, I believe is not only translation but it “…is given by the inspiration of God…” 2 Timothy 3:16
Of course he didn't find it own his own these people go to heretics website to find ammo against the KJV. The funny thing is that these people throw up all over the KJV using the word spider instead of lizard and yet they they has absolutely no problem the new translataions calling Jesus a son of the gods or calling the devil the morning star.
I watched 30 minutes of a James White video years ago and saw he knows nothing about God, the bible nor Christianity. I'm certainly not going to waste my time reading the liars book. I have not seen an argument from James White yet that is not easily refuted.... You're not the only James White cultist I've dealt with. Hey here's a novel idea, post one of his lies up and we can discuss it.
And yes I am exhibiting my fruit... faith in God's holy word.

Wow... are you telling me the number 7 doesn't really mean completion or perfection. I thought creation was completed in 7 days for a reason.
Does the number 9 not represent fruit bearing? If not then why are there 9 FRUITS of the spirit talked about in the 9th book of the New Testament.
Im sorry but Igneranaeus obviously didn't know God's writting style... he uses numbers to represent things throughout the bible.

OK, now what is the bottom line here? I mean is this thread just about KJV onliests, or is the thread simply anti-KJV?
Anyone who knows Jesus Christ is Lord knows this by the Holy Spirit, and all will agree that any version of the Word commonly accepted, which is almost all of them, is just fine as long as the Holy Spirit gives the dead text life for the reader.
So, what's the beef?

That's simply not true. Either the KJV or the other versions are adding to or taking away from the word of God. What does God warn about this? The world thinks we are a bunch of fools. If Christians had one book as our authority, at least we have something to be united on against all matters of this world. Do you honestly think God is ok with the different versions of His word, holding different truths?
Have you never read that to those who do not believe consider the Good News, the Gospel that is, as foolishness.
Why would any believer concern himself with what the world believes.
The due of a believer is to shine his light for all to see, to bring others to the light attracting them with the love of God.
No one who is sure in his belief of the Gospel is in the least bit concerned with what version of Christ's Word is being used to give growth to the saved soul.
The devil has tossed in a red herring.............ignore it.

If I'm studying the life of David in 2 Samuel and I come to the part in 2 Samuel 21:19 where Elhanan killed Goliath, what am I to think? I had read earlier where David killed Goliath? If the word contradicts itself, why read it?
If I want to grow in Christ, I need the right words to let the Holy Spirit guide me to the truth behind those words.

In a word, YES. You should be open to read and study a more "readable" text than Elizabethan English. If you find an error, you should honestly decide if it is an issue of salvation... come on, sending out 70 or 72? Don't be silly. A true biblical scholar is one who reads and compares several different versions, as God's truth is there. Sticking your fingers in your ears and going "lalalalalalalalalala, I can't HEAR you" is a childish way to approach study. I'm still waiting to see ANY evidence at all that the KJV is the one that Jesus told us to use. You are picking at nits, because, as someone stated above, your mind is closed. "Don't confuse me with facts, my mind is made up".... Please, use the KJV only, if that is your belief, but don't try to bind that same narrow-minded belief on all other believers.
sorry.... I said I was through with this discussion. Couldn't help myself.

Where are you getting your misinformation? Of course there have been some deliberately changed writings calling themselves bibles, but those are so obvious...
Why do you attempt to lead others down the deceitful trail of bogus versions which are known to all? Discredited is discredited, but almost all versions of the Word are just fine for anyone who is saved to read.
Please do not drage in the discredited, and please do not give any one version more credit than another because I can guarantee you there are errors in each, errors that do not change the message of Jesus Christ. Do not attempt to confuse brethren who may be weak in th efaith.
