Are most Fundamental Baptists Churches KJVO then?

Dispensationalism is the opposite of what most Baptists here believe, which is Covenant Theology.
Most FUNDAMENTAL Baptists on the BB = 100% Dispensational in eschatology and consider Covenant theology to be of liturgical protestant poor theology

I don't know who these people are so I trust the info from the KJV store.

See what they have to say.

You still did not answer my question - from post # 52 I was NOT asking about the 1611 vs Modern versions -
I was asking the difference between the 1611 and 1769!
Thus - does you "1611" look like the "1611" in my link?
Simple yes or no should suffice!

The authorized KJV 1611 Bibles I have are the ones with the minor changes in spelling, punctuation, and the replacing of obsolete words, made in 1769. These Bibles still carry the "1611" stamp due to the core message being the same as the original authorized 1611.

Yes, my 1611 look like the 1611 besides the font.

The picture of the Bible in your link is the original, and no, my Bible does not have that font or the outdated spelling.

The 1917 Scofield,used the 1769 Oxford KJV.
The Oxford KJV text in the 1917 Scofield Reference Bible is not identical to the KJV text in the 1769 Oxford edition. The 1769 Oxford edition is said to have had over 100 errors that would be corrected in later Oxford KJV editions in the 1800's. One of those errors was not corrected until the 1873 Cambridge.

In all capital letters, Dave Reese asserted: “There were no words changes in the text of the 1909 and 1917 editions” [of the Scofield Reference Bible] (Book No One Can Read, p. 51). Al Lacy claimed that the Old Scofield Reference Bible “has the untouched KING JAMES TEXT” (Can I Trust, p. 89).

Perhaps many are unaware of the fact that the Oxford edition of the KJV in the old Scofield Reference Bible had some unique, different, or rare renderings including word changes that could be said to characterize it [“daytime” (Num. 14:14) instead of “day time,” “and all that” (Lev. 14:36) instead of “that all that”, “unto the coast“ (Deut. 3:14) instead of “unto the coasts”, “And when thou dost” (Deut. 24:10) instead of “When thou doest”, “hastened” (1 Sam. 17:48) instead of “hasted”, “spirit of God” (1 Sam. 19:23) instead of “Spirit of God,” “people of the men” (2 Sam. 16:15) instead of “people, the men”, “the Lord“ (1 Kings 8:56, Jer. 32:26) instead of “the LORD”, “anything” (Rom. 8:33) instead of “any thing”, “lusteth” (Rev. 18:14 instead of “lusted”)]. In these places, the KJV text of the old Scofield Reference Bible differs from that in most typical post-1900 KJV editions. When some KJV-only preachers were holding in their hands during the 1970’s and 1980’s the old Scofield Reference Bible and were preaching from it, they likely did not know that it had some new differences, word changes, or errors likely introduced by the printer or typesetter to its KJV text. Dave Reese’s assumption and claim that there were no word changes in the KJV text in the old Scofield Reference Bible was simply not true even though he was likely sincere in believing his incorrect opinion.

I read your article. I pulled this section out.

Rock of H’s​

One small difference concerns our understanding of the Trinity: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. In the 1611 edition of the KJV, printers capitalized the “G” in “Ghost” but not the “H” in “Holy,” treating it as a mere adjective and not part of its name. 19th-century revisions clarified that the third form of God is not a Ghost that is holy but rather the Holy Ghost. Details matter.



I agree with the capitalization of the “H.” I assume you would also. This is a 19th century change.

They also said this.

“The KJV Store offers both the modern and slightly amended King James Version as well as the original 1611 version.”


While they do tell you how to differentiate between their products, this is not true of publishers everywhere.
The only thing that they have done is create a market for themselves where their clear labels as to what they are selling attract all KJV buyers.

But the KJV store has not taken a KJV stand. They are making a living selling variations of the KJV.

I personally NEVER capitalize the "H", since the inspired Hebrew text uses it as an adjective. And opt NEVER to use the word "Ghost" since that outdated word has evolved into a thousand shades of meaning that is NOT a good picture of the SPIRIT of the Lord.

Of course, I pastored 33 years in Casper, Wyoming, and "ghost" was used by everyone who wanted to be "friendly". :) English evolves with rapidity

@Logos1560,
The 1917 Scofield the KJV used was identified as best I understood. I trust you have more accurate information.

Had "he" instead of "ye"
Jeremiah 34:16, But ye turned and polluted my name, and caused every man his servant, and every man his handmaid, whom he had set at liberty at their pleasure, to return, and brought them into subjection, to be unto you for servants and for handmaids.

This, I am told, is the difference between the Cambridge and Oxford editions. While it is easy to find Bibles still using the Oxford error, my understanding is that most of the Oxfords have acknowledged the error and and changed it to "ye." This is what the research of others has told me. I have not gone beyond reading about the verse into the realms of gathering information from publishers.

Looking at the context without going into the Hebrew, it is pretty clear that the people being addressed were the people who had freed their servants and brought them back into bondage again.

Sorry for jumping in unaddressed, I have just been over this. If there is more on this I am certainly interested.

The rendering "whom he" was not first introduced by a printer at Oxford. It was found in 1613 and 1616 London KJV editions by the king's printer, and it was also in the standard 1629 Cambridge edition and in the standard 1638 Cambridge edition. It is likely from those two standard Cambridge editions that the rendering is found in many later KJV editions.
