David, Thanks for clarifying some things...it helps me understand your position a little better. But I still have a few questions. You said: 5. God used these scholars and clergymen and gave them similar authority and infallibility as He had given the Apostles to take manuscripts that were without e...

Thanks, that summary helps some, I guess I can't find that article though, I only saw part 1. The following is the list that he refers to: "The Differences Are Trivial" "Doctrine Is Unaffected" "No Cardinal Doctrines Are Affected" "Every Doctrine Is Still Supportab...

I didn't read everything and so I can't say I agree with everything but there was some good stuff I saw here mostly with the second link.

David, It's not my intention to make you mad or accuse you of anything. But the as I stated above people have made a version their idol instead of the Word of God. The Word of God isn't a paper book and isn't a version. To look at it as simply a version or a paper book is to make it a tangible item ...

David, There is only one reason why the world looks at Christianity and the bible and wonders why we fight so much. It's because language changes and so different translations are made to reflect the changes in meaning. Then you have these old KJV Idol worshipers that come along and say, "Why w...

I read the article again and more of it makes sense now even though I don't quite follow all his logic. It seems to me that the real question that should be answered is are translators of the bible given the same infallibility as those who were inspired of God to write the original texts themselves....

Jim, I tried to figure out what Al Dagger was saying but I got confused. I'm not sure exactly what texts he refers to as A and B. I know he mentions those letters but does he explicitly say these texts are A and these texts are B? Also, I have read many sources that say that there are more martyrs n...

NKJV
NIV
ASV
NASV
BBE
NASB
MKJV
YLT
TNIV
DARBY
JPS

and there are probably a few thousand others that I'm forgetting, lol.

Thanks Jim

Fault With King James Only Reasoning

I hope that I can say this correctly since I'm having a hard time finding the words. A common reason among those who support only a KJV view of proof or evidence that the KJV is God's true Word is that no other bible version has been used to change lives like the KJV. I found this on a KJV only site...

It's Hebrew and according to their language ra' can mean either, it depends what context it is being used. This is what I have been trying to say. Translation is a process in which fallible men study and read scripture in one language and then make a choice on how the word should be translated to a...

David, This is the problem with words, you can say evil and calamity mean the same thing, I'll agree that you can stretch it to mean the same thing and say that evil does not speak of wickedness but calamity, disaster, destruction,etc. But in the English language especially today (but even back in 1...

So then why do you believe the bible if it contradict itself? Why believe in a God that would create evil? Better yet, I know God exists, so WHY DID HE CREATE EVIL? Why would God do something like this? I think you said earlier in another post that God is not the author of confusion so why is He con...

David, Do you honestly believe the KJV has no errors in translation? Even the translators themselves admitted that it was imperfect and said we should consult other translation just as they did. How about this one: Isaiah 45:7 KJV: I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil...

David, After reading what I wrote earlier, I thought it came across the wrong way. I didn't mean to as if you were worshiping the Word of God or a version as if that's your intention or as an accusation. I brought it up for the sake of discussion. I apologize if it came across the wrong way because ...
