    Are you KJV Only? TR Only? Which versions of these is the ONE?

    I volunteered a response since the question directed to me (I'm not KJVO). I responded because I wanted to know if you have read the Geneva, a question which you did not answer. I have read the Geneva New Testament. But now I must ask: Why was my response was "quite ridiculous"? Please provide...

    KJV-only double standards concerning NKJV

    Below I have copied-'n-pasted the second disputed verse of the website article entitled "When the NEW King James Bible departs from the underlying Greek text of the King James Bible" -- Matt 18:26 (KJV) The servant therefore fell down, AND WORSHIPPED HIM, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and...

    Are you KJV Only? TR Only? Which versions of these is the ONE?

    Have you read the Geneva? I don't think most people would prefer it at as an everyday Bible. A comparison would perhaps be like giving up whatever contemporary automobiles for 1930's car models: they still basically have a motor, four tires, and a steering wheel but it would lack almost all...

    ESV with the Apocrypha

    No, thanks. We have had several discussions around the topic of Inspiration since I've been a regular here and I'm not really interested in covering that ground again right now. Why not just a short answer and list the so-called 'apocryphal' books you hold as inspired of God?

    Are you KJV Only? TR Only? Which versions of these is the ONE?

    I will not rebut here and now all the verses cited in the website article "When the NEW King James Bible departs from the underlying Greek text of the King James Bible", but here is one. The very first disputed verse cut-'n-pasted from the website -- Matthew 5:37 “But let your COMMUNICATION be...

    The Bible: a screenplay

    What is the new Jerusalem Bible version?

    Not really. Officially the D-R was still the primary Catholic English text until the NAB (in America). However, the RCC does sanction some other versions such as the Jerusalem, Knox NT, and Kleist-Lilly NT, and Christian Community Bible for examples. My understanding is that the notes...

    What is the new Jerusalem Bible version?

    It is interesting that you would chose this verse as an example. Notice that the two versions are in the mostly exactly the same (colored blue above), except for a few words and word order in first phrase. The New Jerusalem version is more literal than the earlier Jerusalem translation: first...

    Did Eve add to God's words? Genesis 3:3

    So, is it a sin to add to God's words or not? If it is, then 'perfect' Eve sinned without any deception involved. If it is not, why wasn't it a sin for Eve to add to God's words then? Could that reason be applicable today?

    Did Eve add to God's words? Genesis 3:3

    I agree. We do not know that God did not say it since certainly there are many things that God said that are not recorded for us. But for those that disagree, I think there is a theological problem since the Scripture clearly indicate that the first sin was that of eating of the tree. If she...

    Did Eve add to God's words? Genesis 3:3

    Eve's reply to the serpent -- And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: But of the fruit of the tree which [is] in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. (Genesis 3:2-3, KJV) Did...

    The Textual Sources Behind the KJV?

    F.H.A. Scrivener via Wikipedia For their Old Testament, the translators used a text originating in the editions of the Hebrew Rabbinic Bible by Daniel Bomberg (1524/5),[110] but adjusted this to conform to the Greek LXX or Latin Vulgate in passages to which Christian tradition had attached a...

    The Textual Sources Behind the KJV?

    Dr. Laurence M. Vance Pro-KJV Dr. Vance alluding to "The Translators to the Reader" states that besides all the English versions -- And, as the translators themselves also acknowledged, they had a multitude of sources from which to draw from: "Neither did we think much to consult the...

    The Textual Sources Behind the KJV?

    Rev. Steven Houck Pastor Houck is evidently a strong KJV supporter when he states on a website that -- Even though the King James Version has its weaknesses, it is an excellent translation and by far the best version available today. We must not be taken in by the modern versions and their...
