    The Disappearance of the Dean Burgon Society

    Some KJV defenders strongly object to being identified accurately as KJV-only even though they clearly have made exclusive claims for only one English Bible translation--the KJV. For one example, D. A. Waite (1927-2024), who was one of the founders of the Dean Burgon Society, has clearly made...

    Preserved Text Only

    Numerous KJV-only authors try to connect the textually different Waldensian Bible translations with a claimed preserved or pure line of Bibles that also includes the KJV. Your claim does not seem to differ significantly from KJV-only arguments. David Sorenson maintained that the Waldenses...

    Preserved Text Only

    Some of the pre-1611 English Bibles such as the 1537 Matthew’s Bible and the 1560 Geneva Bible are currently in print. The 1833 Webster’s Bible which was reprinted in 1987, the 1994 21st Century King James Version, the 1998 Third Millennium Bible [also called the New Authorized Version], and the...

    The Disappearance of the Dean Burgon Society

    If so, that is your fault because of your repeated strawman distortions and misrepresentations. You have tried to belittle and mock at my scripturally-based position. You have presented no positive, consistent, sound, convincing, true, and scriptural case for your many unproven assertions that...

    Preserved Text Only

    Perhaps you have merely demonstrated your use of double standards. You dismiss or avoid all actual verifiable facts that conflict with or contradict your inconsistent, unproven claims. Examples of major inconsistencies, actual conjectural emendations, and reconstruction in your claimed...

    The Disappearance of the Dean Burgon Society

    No, you know my scripturally-based position does not rest on the words of men as you improperly try to suggest. I have presented many scripturally-based points, which you tried to misrepresent and twist into something that I did not say.

    The Disappearance of the Dean Burgon Society

    You divert and misrepresent my accurate information that directly addressed your own stated claim of "the continuous, providentially preserved line of transmission" that included the Waldensian line. My documented evidence proved that the Waldensian Bible translations were made from editions...

    Preserved Text Only

    You seem to reject other post-1611 English Bible translations made from the same preserved original-languages texts or same textual stream as the KJV, which suggests that you can be soundly identified as being KJV-only based on your own assertions concerning English Bibles. Since the KJV is an...

    Preserved Text Only

    You show that you are uninformed or misinformed concerning the Bibles on your claimed preserved line or stream of transmission. You are simply wrong in some of your claims. You do not document and prove an actual continuous line of transmission. The Old Testament of the Gothic Bible was based...

    The Disappearance of the Dean Burgon Society

    Thomas Armitage wrote that “he [Peter Waldo] employed Stephen of Ansa and Bernard Ydross to translate the Gospels from the Latin Vulgate of Jerome into the Romance dialect for the common people, as well as the most inspiring passages from the Christian Fathers” (History of the Baptists, I, p...

    The Disappearance of the Dean Burgon Society

    You show that you are uninformed or misinformed concerning the Bibles on your claimed preserved line. You are simply wrong in some of your claims. The Old Testament of the Gothic Bible was based on the Greek Septuagint. The Old Testament of the Old Latin Bible was translated from the Greek...

    The Disappearance of the Dean Burgon Society

    This supposed concrete example does not support your claim the 1560 Geneva Bible and the 1568 Bishops' Bible or the 1602 edition of the Bishops' Bible "were made into an immature English. The Church of England makers of the KJV had merely kept some inconsistent uses of "charity" from the 1572...

    The Disappearance of the Dean Burgon Society

    English did not have a completely stable pronoun system in 1611. English had not reached full maturity in 1611. Martin Manser noted: “The [KJV] translators used ‘his,’ ‘her,’ ‘of it,’ or ‘thereof’ when they needed a neuter possessive” (I Never Knew, p. 240). David Crystal affirmed that in the...

    The Disappearance of the Dean Burgon Society

    You do not prove that the 1560 Geneva Bible and the 1568 Bishops' Bible or the 1602 edition of the Bishops' Bible "were made into an immature English that could not yet carry the preserved text with full precision." Since many changes needed to be made to the English and the inconsistent...

    The Disappearance of the Dean Burgon Society

    You seem to reject other post-1611 English Bible translations made from the same preserved original-languages texts as the KJV, which suggests that you are KJV-only. Since the KJV is an English Bible translation made in 1611, the term KJV-only would be used soundly and correctly to describe a...

    The Disappearance of the Dean Burgon Society

    You raise valid points that suggest that English had not reached full maturity in 1611. English at the time of the making of the KJV was in the period of Early Modern English and the period of the Great Vowel Shift so English had not reached its full maturity in 1611. David Crystal, who has...

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

    You are putting words in my mouth when you falsely allege that I suggest that God failed in the preservation of His words. You have not refuted my statement, but instead you use a bogus tactic of trying to invent a conclusion that does not follow from my acceptance of scriptural truths stated...

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

    My position is based on what the Scriptures teach. I properly appeal to human authorities about matters of history and facts after the completion of the Scriptures. You are a human authority who has failed to establish your position from Scripture alone.
