What do you make of all the problems in the Modern Bible Movement I have mentioned so far? Spiritism, Catholicism, Unitarianism, and deception is attached to this movement. Granted, I am not saying a person cannot be saved by a Modern Bible, or that they cannot use Modern Translations. My point is that the KJV has shown to be one of most trustworthy translations today and yet on the other hand, Modern Bibles have many problems. Modern Bibles teach false doctrines in many places, unlike the KJV.
There are many problems that revolve around the KJV. The false prosperity and "blab it and grab it" people were JKV people. One misinterpretation is the word "conversation". The KJV Bible says that he who ordereth his conversation aright, I will show the salvation of God. So the "name and claim" mob say that all you have to do is declare something and it is yours. The problem with this is that the word "conversation" has changed its meaning over the centuries since the KJV was produced. It means "way of life", not a chat with someone in your Bible Study group.

The greatest problem with Christian doctrine is misinterpretation and selective emphasis on God's word. I've yet to hear a prosperity preacher remind people that

"Those who want to be rich, however, fall into temptation and become ensnared by many foolish and harmful desires that plunge them into ruin and destruction." 1 Timothy 6:9

The first prosperity preacher I heard used the JKV. 45 years later, he's still going strong and still deceiving people. It sure works for him. I went down that rabbit hole and all I got was broke.

KJV is a Good Translation, but not the only acceptable Bible by any means. Also, the KJV can be improved, by the 400+ years of scholarly research that has been done since the 1611 KJV was first published.
