    Copyright Laws

    Does this website pay a fee for its use of the KJV Bible?

    Thoughts on the NLT

    Typically, in a group setting, when someone is reading aloud from the NLT, and those listening use the KJV, NKJV, NASB, ESV, you will hear, "What? The Bible doesn't say that!"

    Copyright Laws

    Good question. I suppose it varies from person to person.

    Copyright Laws

    If so, these are (hopefully) not instances of intentionally violating copyright laws.

    Popularity of the King James Version (KJV) ...

    Fantastic! I look forward to reading it. :)

    Popularity of the King James Version (KJV) ...

    Fortunately, my copy of the KJV (published by Zondervan) actually stated on the copyright page that the KJV was in the public domain, in the United States, so he allowed me to proceed. :) (This was after approval from the store manager, by the way.)

    Popularity of the King James Version (KJV) ...

    Could be! After all, the KJV is taught in "The Bible as Literature" classes in college, even now. :)

    Popularity of the King James Version (KJV) ...

    Yes, rather like "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare."

    "Formal" vs "Functional"

    I meant to ask "what do you think of ..."

    Popularity of the King James Version (KJV) ...

    Yes, and people will be unaware of the KJV's tremendous influence on our culture.

    Popularity of the King James Version (KJV) ...

    Yes, an important issue in our country, actually. I had a Kinko's employee try to stop me from making a copy of pages from the KJV. I had to explain that the KJV is in the "public domain."

    Popularity of the King James Version (KJV) ...

    Although, better the ESV than the NIV, eh? ;)

    Popularity of the King James Version (KJV) ...

    Yes, and Philippians 4:6. Imagine believing you should "be careful for nothing."

    Changing a point of view.

    What I'm also seeing is churches focusing on bringing in "new believers," but neglecting to focus on "discipleship."

    Changing a point of view.

    I do not mind seeing a man change his point of view. That is his business, not mine. What I do mind is seeing a man judge, condemn, attack, or mock another man for having done so.

    Popularity of the King James Version (KJV) ...

    I agree that it "should" still be used. But I wonder if it "will" still be used. Hmmmmm ...

    "Formal" vs "Functional"

    In the past, I've heard that the NET is "less" FE, so to speak, than the NIV, so I find your statement intriguing.

    "Formal" vs "Functional"

    What do you of the translators' notes that are provided?

    Should People Ask Jesus Christ Into Their Lives???

    I see your point. And I have been on the receiving end of such behavior, so I should know better. Therefore, I retract my previous statement, in light of your correction. Thank you for presenting your case without being contentious, sir.

    "Formal" vs "Functional"

    It would be interesting to see where the New English Translation (NET) would belong on this chart.
