    Our Scriptural Confidence is that We have a Pure, More Sure Word of Prophecy.

    Perhaps you demonstrate use of divers measures or double standards since you do not apply the same exact measures to the making of the KJV. According to their marginal notes in the 1611 KJV edition, the Church of England makers of the KJV admitted that they took away some original-language...

    NKJV Luke 1:35, Oops

    At Luke 1:35, the 1534 Tyndale's New Testament has "And the angel answered and said unto her: The holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee. Therefore also that holy thing which shall be born, shall be called the Son of God."

    The King James Translators intended to make the very good Translations Better.

    While the makers of the KJV noted that it was their intended mark or aim to make “one principal good” revision or translation, they also clearly condemned any presumption that would suggest that they accomplished their goal perfectly. Verifiable, convincing facts in the 1611 edition would...

    Discrepancy between Leviticus 23:6 and Matthew 26:17?

    The meaning of words can change over a period of time especially over hundreds of years. Passover may have been first used for one day, but the term later was used for that one day and the seven days of the feast of unleavened bread which followed that one day. Each of the two verses need to...

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

    In this article to which you provided a link, Pastor George Bruns wrote: "The only question that remains then is this, if God preserved every jot and tittle of His word in what Bible version do we find it. The answer is simple, in the only version that does not take away from the word of God...

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

    Your own "95% of the manuscript evidence extant agrees" assertion is a specific criteria, not a general concept. You made a specific claim that was not and is not true. You specifically claimed that the 95% agree. You show that you did not state the truth. "No lie is of the truth" (1 John...

    The King James Translators intended to make the very good Translations Better.

    Coverdale’s 1538 edition of Jerome’s Latin Vulgate NT has “inspirati” in its rendering at 2 Peter 1:21. Stephen Westcott’s modern-spelling edition of the 1388 Wycliffe New Testament has the following rendering of 2 Peter 1:21: “for prophecy was not brought at any time by man’s will, but the holy...

    Preserved Text Only

    What God inspired were the original-languages words of Scripture that proceeded from the mouth of God by inspiration to the prophets and apostles. How is every individual preserved original-language word of Scripture actually kept intact and unchanged in the KJV when the 1611 KJV changed them...

    Is the entire Critical Text reconstructed or is a portion of it reconstructed?

    It is possible to overgeneralize when using adjectives to describe a Bible text, Bible translation or one edition of it. An original-language text or a translation can still be considered overall accurate even when it has a few individual inaccurate renderings, a few inconsistencies, impurities...

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

    You already know that I have not advocated nor recommended the Critical Text, and yet you seem to try improperly to associate me with it. You seem to have been misinformed since 95% of the extant manuscript evidence does not agree word for word and jot and tittle for jot and tittle with each...

    Qere and Kethib in the Hebrew Bible: Safeguarding Scripture and Its Pronunciation

    Jacob ben Chayyim as translated by Christian Ginsburg wrote: “Shew me how it is possible to read the Pentateuch, when [according to the Talmud] we must not read a single letter which is not written in the text. How then can it enter into one’s mind that we should read the Keri [Qere], which...

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

    KJV-only author Steve Combs observed: “If 2 Timothy 3:16 applies to a copy or translation, then every time a translation is made, it is inspired, and every time a copy was made it was inspired” (Practical Theology of Bible Translating, p. 35; Translator’s Greek Grammar of the Textus Receptus, p...

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

    You are wrong to question my salvation and to suggest that I supposedly do not have the aid of the indwelling Holy Spirit of God. Are you violating forum rules? As a true believer, the Holy Spirit of truth indwells me, and He guides me just as much as you may claim that He guides you.

    The King James Translators intended to make the very good Translations Better.

    Are you trying to suggest that James Sightler is in effect God since you seem to suggest that his private interpretation of 2 Timothy 3:16 is God speaking? H. D. Williams quoted D. A. Waite as noting: “Theopneustos is a compound adjective which comes from two Greek words, theos (God) and...

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

    Is James Sightler, M.D., a Greek scholar? Would he have a possible motive of trying to justify his father Harold Sightler's KJV-only teaching? Is James Sightler possibly following the claims of Gail Riplinger? H. D. Williams quoted D. A. Waite as noting: “Theopneustos is a compound adjective...

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

    According to the Scriptures themselves, it could be soundly concluded that inspiration would be a term for the way, method, means, or process by which God directly gave the Scriptures to the prophets and apostles or for the way that the words proceeded from the mouth of God to the prophets and...

    The King James Translation

    Lacking archaic pronouns such as thou, thee, thy, and thine does not prove a present English Bible to be inferior or wrong. The word of God can be translated into present standard Modern English. The word of God is not bound or limited to translation into Early Modern English. Some of the...

    Is the KJV too difficult?

    Bill Fortenberry asserted: “The KJV is the only English translation currently in print with a distinction between the singular and plural forms of the second-person pronouns. None of the modern TR translations accurately preserve this important distinction” (False Friends, p. 44; Stewardship, p...

    Is the entire Critical Text reconstructed or is a portion of it reconstructed?

    Anthony Pritchard does seem to try to reframe the practice of textual criticism into something negative. His position is not clear since he has not defined and clarified what he means by reconstruction. Did he also try to reframe the matter of preservation into all two possibilities: Preserved...
