    Sister Alexandra Spears:
    Which of thest three KJUVs do you prefer?

    the authorized KJV1611
    the unauthorized KJV 1769
    the unauthorized KJV 1873

    I like the KJV1611 best because it has better
    translator notes. in fact, frequently KJVs
    don't bother to tell which version of the KJV
    they are. But after awile you expect KJVO
    shortsightedness to show [​IMG]

    BTW, I have a copy of each of these three KJVs
    right on my comptuer hutch so i can reference
    them at will.

    At least my 1873 version says it is an 1873
    version AND has the translation notes of
    the the 1611 translators.
    My 1769 translation does NOT say it is a KJV1769
    nor does it have the translation notes.

    I did a survey on another board about
    which KJV folks used. Here were the replies:

    1873 - 14%
    1769 - 32%
    1611 - 14%
    Say what? - 40%

    Grammer lesson:
    should be "You're at liberty".

    Hey, MV-neverist [​IMG] which of the following
    MVs do you use?

    1) KJV1769
    2) KJV1873

    If the KJV you use hides the edition
    that you use, i can show you how to tell
    the difference, and yes, they are different.

    Yet another baseless charge. No one has yet to show these twisted doctrines. It is untrue to say that MVs distort doctrine.

    And 2 Cor 2:17 has nothing to do with the Bible version issue. That is just another place where KJVOs twist Scripture to fit their own conclusions.

    Exactly! I've not seen any angry NKJV users jumping down the throats of those who choose to only use the William Tyndale version. </font>[/QUOTE]Who killed William Tyndale?

    You never study the Scripture it appears. The only thing you study is the writings of men. No one can rightly say that 1 cor 2:17 or 1 Cor 14:38 has anything to do with the KJV. The point of 1 Cor 2:17 is that some were corrupting the message of Scripture in order to gain a following. That immediately and without any possibility of contradictions rules out applying that verse to modern translations. It could rightly be applied to the health and wealth preachers, the easy believism preachers, etc. But it cannot be applied to modern translations without raping the text.

    To cite 1 cor 14:38 is more laughable than the first. You are not speaking revelation from God. Therefore I am perfectly right to ignore your false statements, or to correct them so that others are not mislead by them.

    You treat Scripture like it is nothing. You need to raise your view of Scripture and use it as God intended it. Quit twisting it to support your own doctrine.

    I have many times. It simply does not address the Bible version issue. To try to make it address that issue is a misuse of Scripture.

    If you came and sat in my church for a week or so you would change your tune real quick. This is a silly statement to make on your part.

    I am not reluctant to study that at all. Because I have studied it, I know that this antioch/alexandria line of argumentation is but another twisting of Scripture to support a preconceived notion. Scripture teaches nothing of the sort. I have studied it; I know the truth. If you would study Scripture and quit following men, you would be quickly freed from these false notions and you would find room for tremendous growth in the truth of God's word. Oh how I wish that would happen.

    I don't see anything in this verse that pertains to biblical translations.

    I have never seen the KJV attacked. I've seen KJVers who can't back up their heresies attacked. And well it should be.

    Matthew 19:17. Why is the modern versions different from the King James. Do they not believe that Jesus is good?

    BTW Edifier, there is not scripture meaning loss between the 1611, 1769, 1783 King James Bibles.

    The NIV is a prime example of heresy. It denies Christ's deity. It DELETES Scripture, which is a huge no-no.

    Of course you don't see it.Romans 11:8 </font>[/QUOTE]This verse in context (which you frequently ignore) deals with salvation not Bible versions... unless you are linking John's salvation to his beliefs about KJVOnlyism?

    John and I disagree on things far more important and substanative than this issue... in fact, we disagree on several important issues. However, John's salvation is not dependent on agreeing with my opinions nor interpretations. As far as I am aware, he and I have dealt with our differences openly, honestly, and without allowing pride to get in the way.

    If you are implying that he is unsaved because he disagrees with you on this issue then you have more significant doctrinal issues to deal with than which Bible to use. If this is simply another case of you taking scripture out of context and twisting it to fit your purposes then you should be ashamed.

    No it isn't. Check a dictionary for the meaning of "heresy".

    No it doesn't. Check a dictionary for the meaning of "denies". Also, compare Rom 9:5, Titus 2:13 and 2 Pet 1:1 between the NIV and KJV and tell me what you find. [​IMG]

    Actually, it just deletes the things that the KJV *added* to scripture, which is a huge no-no. [​IMG]

    "Oh about Catholics, look back in history....they wern't always so persecuted! It was the other way around, only Christians today don't put Catholics to death like the Catholics did to Christians back then!"
    Go tell that to the Irish.

    The NIV deny the deity of Christ? It is the English translation that is clearest on the deity of Christ.

    Alexandra's post is exactly the sort of nonsensical hoo-hah that comes from uncritical KJV-onlyists who simply regurgitate a whole bunch of poppycock from false teachers and never bother doing the homework for themselves.
