Bible Note: Greetings Ken John! My friend, no one here would critize anyone for reading or using the KJV. If that is your choice, I have no problem with it whatsoever. What I would critize is your telling others that the KJV is the only translation which is the Word of God. That position is simply unsupportable for many reasons. 1) The KJV is just a translation. It is not the Word of God. It didn't drop out of Heaven complete. 2) The KJV has been revised many times over the years. Did God make mistakes the first few times? ;-) 3) The KJV did not have many manuscripts for support. The KJV is an excellent translation. But, it is only a translation my friend. I actually study from the Greek text, not from the translations. So, I am very much aware that all of the translation occasionally miss the boat. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
