Subject: What about the King James Only movement? |
Bible Note: Kalos - Often I've searched for valid reasons to accept the legitimacy of adherence only to the King James Bible and have found but one, and that one would be that should anyone find himself in the unlikely circumstance of being marooned on a desert island or trapped in an Afgan cave with only the King James Bible in his possession, he would be wholly justified in using it as his only link to Holy Writ. All other arguments that have been advanced by King James Onlyists are inadequate of proof and common sense. ....... Why, I wonder, could it not be argued with the same degree of fervor and with a like authenticity that other translations into languages besides English are tainted by New Age heresy unless they too were translated no later than 1611? This date, 1611, appears to be the deadline at which God ceased to inspire translations. I'll post biblical proof of this as soon as it can be located :-) You've done an excellent and scholarly job in your several posts in debunking the KJV Onlyism nonsense and thus have performed a valuable service to readers of this Forum. --Hank |
