Never said the bible was God(strawman) I'm saying God is the author of it. Aka HIS Word. There are no errors with the Word of God . And I have yet to meet anyone here who has read a Manuscript. For it is simple : The KJV, NKJV, NASB, ASB ESV all are used by the Holy Spirit to reach the lost with the Gospel Message.
Only Theological Liberials make the so-called issue of error AS MAN SEES it. WOW Look what I found and error in what is known as the Bible. That is not the correct way to explain what is known as the Word of God.

There are no doctrinal errors but there are translational errors. The great truths of the bible are beyond question but there are little wiggles between the Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic getting into the English. Some of the words in the original manuscripts do not have a direct English translation.
So in the most important way you are correct and the critics worry about meaningless things.

I love these facts about the KJV keep up the good work brother. Jesus stated that the truth shall set us free. When people change the Word of God they are corrupting the truth and presenting us with lies. The Bible says that when the devil speaks a lie he speaks of himself, he is the father of lies. It is sad and breaks my heart that there are so many corrupt so called versions that don't agree with themselves nor the true Word of God. I used to study out of other versions until I saw that the difference was so obvious by a personal side by side study of them and the KJV. Later I learned about the Greek texts and where they originate from. My prayer for all is that they will study to show themselves approved a workman who needeth not be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of truth. satan is attacking the Word just like he did in the garden and many are being deceived. I owe my all to God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. God wants us all to know the truth, He can not lie and will not lie to us. Let God be true and every man a liar. When mankind changes the Word of God in any way it becomes a lie, not of God.
It's always a problem with man. God did not breathe the scriptures in English. God moved holy men of God to write His word.
Moses recorded Gods word but the only part that God actually wrote was on the tables of stone on the mountain. That of course was the second set because the set Moses wrote he smashed.
Men wrote what God breathed in Hebrews, Greek and Aramaic not English, German, Latin or Spanish.
God has preserved His word through the translation process so 2 Tim 3:16-17 remains true and we can receive it in our language.

2 Timothy 3:16 King James Version (KJV)
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
According to the bible there is only one kind of scripture - inspired by God. If it's not inspired by God then it's not scripture.
NOTE: It did not say all scripture WAS given by inspiriation of God.

I encourage you to read The King James Only Controversy (2nd edn.) by James White. He addresses many of the issues in a rational and well-documented format.
As for "changes", how would you go about determining where a change was made, and what do you consider the "standard of measure"? Did you know that the KJV translators changed what was written in the Bishop's Bible and the Geneva Bible, two English versions that predate the KJV?
