The "scriptures" are said to be "Given by the Inspiration of God", and I, therefore, say "The Bible we hold in our is Inspired."

I do not doubt that these books have led folks to seek the truth because God used this or that passage to touch their hearts. I'll go one more thought along this line that is not up for silly fights but is worthy of consideration. In my experience I have found Saved men and women in many different Church families. I do not believe everyone that is LDS, JW and so on is necessarily lost.

I do believe there are many prodigal children in need of returning home.
I agree but I believe if they are saved and the Holy Spirit is guiding them in all truth, He will ultimately guide them out of such a mess and lead them to God's people where they may truly thrive in their Christian walk.

Which version "since the Authorized Version is an accurate Translation". Which year was the accurate inspired version?

The first printing was in 1611. Early printings contained many typographical errors due to printing errors. Major attempts to standardize the text were conducted in 1629 (Cambridge), 1638 (Cambridge), 1762 (by Dr. F. S. Parris, published by Cambridge), and 1769 (by Dr. Benjamin Blayney, published by Oxford). The 1769 Oxford edition has updated spelling and grammar and is a trustworthy edition that is widely used today. Dr. F. H. A. Scrivener conducted a meticulous standardization of the KJV from 1866 to 1873, resulting in the 1873 Cambridge edition. The differences between the 1611 edition and the later editions are due to corrections of obvious printing errors (including words that were accidentally omitted), the standardization and updating of spelling, and the updating of punctuation and paragraph marks.[1]
