Subject: KJV Only Radicals |
Bible Note: Hi Janae, For what its worth. . . I have a great deal of respect for the King James, although I tend to use anything I can get my hands on, of the the more literal versions. I do not normally read paraphrases or the "dynamic equivalent". I personally do not use the NIV, although I began my Christian experience with the NIV for the first couple of years, before a major backslide. I especially enjoy the JP GREEN LITERAL VERSION, and I prefer the ones that use the Textus Receptus, followed by the Majority Text. I am learning to use an Analytical Greek NT, although that one happens to be from the Critical Text. There has been much "endless debate" on this forum of this topic, with many, shall I say, highly opinionated posts made. I would suggest that you search (using "King James Only" should work just fine) to sample the tone of the previous discussions before entering into this topic. I recommend, to any who are interested, go online and search "Bible Manuscript Comparison", "Bible Translation Comparison", "Textual Critisism", and "Bible Manuscript Families". This will show you a vast amount of information on this subject. Feel free to contact me if you wish to pursue this. Love in Christ, Mark |
