In the section concerning the word "Lord" (190 entries in the PDF list) I have quickly determined for myself that more than 20 entries (10%, exhibited in the posts above) are not legitimate criticisms. Next, the vast majority of the criticisms are a result of the difference between a primarily...

Three more examples from the PDF list entitled "5,000 Documented Word Perversions in the NIV/TNIV" (a collation work based on comparison between the KJV, 1984 NIV, and 2005 TNIV) -- Acts 10:48 - the Lord (KJV), Jesus Christ (NIV), Jesus Christ (TNIV) Acts 16:10 - the Lord (KJV), God (NIV), God...

Why would the KJV men insert the word "LORD" before "God" in 2 Chronicles 17:4? The Hebrew word for Jehovah is not present (only the word Elohim, which is "God"). Did they think the antecedent was somehow unclear? Of course, the addition of "LORD" has no negative impact on the meaning of the verse.

The accusation against the NIV/TNIV is again made in reference to Numbers 23:15,16 -- And he said unto Balak, Stand here by thy burnt offering, while I meet [the LORD] yonder. And the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, Go again unto Balak, and say thus. (KJV) Balaam said...

Another two criticism examples from an anti-modern version website list are found at Leviticus Chapter 24 where the NIV/TNIV do not include the inserted words (usually taking an italicized form in print) "of the LORD" as found in the KJV (verses 11-16) -- And the Israelitish woman's son...

Why did the king's revisers use "God" in Isaiah 44:8 rather than the more literal "Rock"? Other recognized literal translations have "Rock" -- Fear not, nor be afraid, Have I not from that time caused thee to hear, and declared? And ye [are] My witnesses, Is there a God besides Me? yea, there is...

The NIV/TNIV have been criticized for rendering various phrases and clauses differently than that which is found in the KJV text. Unfortunately, I find it difficult to take any of the criticism seriously when I find such outrageous examples as I seemed to have found in a list from which I will...

You are somewhat confusing two distinctly different positions, that of KJV-O with that of TR-O; however they are often closely linked. While it is true that most KJV-O are also TR-O, it does not necessarily follow that a TR-O will always be KJV-O.

Islam does not (officially) have a version controversy. All competing texts were destroyed almost immediately following Muhammad's death to avoid this very issue. Some editions are allowed to exhibit pronunciation variations to accommodate the various Arabic dialects. Of course, unofficially...

Interestingly, I was just recently handed a copy of our church's new 'Potential Deacon Questionaire' (which includes many strictly "Yes" or "No" questions), one of which is -- Do you hold a position commonly known as King James Version Onlyism?

Implying that Gipp is a "scholar" almost made me vomit on my keyboard.

Amen. Amen. Although to be fair, be sure to check back in a few hundred years to count the souls saved and lives changed by the NASB & NIVs. And amen, again.

And the Queen James Bible is "almost exactly" the same as the KJV; but obviously "almost exactly" can still allow for great differences. It has been adequately shown here that the Geneva and other early English Bibles were quite difference than the KJV. The next step for you would have been to...

MailOnline (UK) reported on December 17, 2012 that "a book claiming to be the world's first 'gay bible' has been published to coincide with the debate on same-sex marriage." That statement was picked up by other media outlets, but I can't find an original source for that claim...

The editors claim to have made changes "to prevent homophobic interpretations" in only 8 verses: Genesis 19:15, Leviticus 18:22 & 20:13, Romans 1:26 & 1:27, I Corinthians 6:9, I Timothy 1:10, and Jude 7. http://queenjamesbible.com/gay-bible/

Would you please provide a reference or two? Thanks!

God's Word in English was delivered to you by men and was confirmed by other men. There is no biblical support for anything similar to the God-inspiration of His writers in the translation process of translators or revisers; these good men could have been mistaken and imperfect in their...

This is a false trilemma; there are other possible answers including "It is very important, but not vital."

From the website-- Kinda ironic, don't you think?

Revmitchell, are you are exaggerating when you say the Bible is the "only"? If not, I must strongly disagree with your statement. There is overwhelming evidence of other books in the marketplace that are re-written, edited, abridged, and published for a less sophisticated or less technical...
