English Bible translations such as the 1833 Webster’s Bible, the 1842 revision of the KJV by Baptists, the 1962 Teen-age Version of the Holy Bible by Jay Green, the 1982 NKJV, the 1986 Literal Translation in The Interlinear Bible, the 1990 Modern King James Version, the 1994 21st Century King...

This article makes an unproven, overgeneralized, and false assertion since this assertion has not been proven to be true of "all modern English translations." English Bible translations such as the 1833 Webster’s Bible, the 1842 revision of the KJV by Baptists, the 1962 Teen-age Version of the...

Some of the KJV translators consulted or made used of printed editions of the Greek Septuagint including the printed 1587 Rome Septuagint. Levi Berntson wrote: “In 1578 Pope Gregory XIII commissioned the production of the Roman Septuagint (1587), an edition of the text based on the Aldine...

You do not prove that the translation process involved in the making of the KJV was different in every respect. You do not back up and prove what you assert to be true. The making of the KJV involved textual criticism decisions, Bible revision decisions, and translation decisions just as the...

Assuming no more than KJV-only advocates assume when they assert that God blessed and blesses use of the KJV. The 1560 Geneva Bible was the word of God translated into English many years before the 1611 KJV was ever made. The 1560 Geneva Bible was the most widely-read, accepted, trusted, and...

How is Jack McElroy's stated KJV-only reasoning essentially different than Peter Ruckman's stated KJV-only reasoning? Jack McElroy asserted: “You can find all of his preserved, inerrant words in the King James Bible” (Bible Version Secrets, p. 423). Jack McElroy also declared: “King James Only...

The KJV completely removed some archaic, antiquated, rare, unusual, or difficult words or spellings found in one or more of the pre-1611 English Bibles. These words would be English Bible words or Biblical English found in the pre-1611 English Bibles. Should all the following words have been...

In the parallel passages presenting the parable of the fig tree in the gospel of Matthew and in the gospel of Mark, is it easier to understand the KJV referring to the same branch as “his branch” (Matt. 24:32) and “her branch” (Mark 13:28)? The NKJV has “its branch” at both verses. Is the KJV...

Is it interesting that you claim not to have any use for KJV-only authors and yet you repeat favorably the incorrect claims of one extreme KJV-only author, Jack McElroy?

Gail Riplinger claimed that the NKJV “and all new versions use many, many, many more words and letters to say something than the KJV does” (In Awe, pp. 269-270). Gail Riplinger asserted that the KJV “says things using fewer words than any of the corrupt new versions” (p. 270). Gail Riplinger's...

Sometimes KJV-only advocates seem to attempt to suggest incorrectly that harder words, longer three-syllable or four-syllable words, or difficult words are the same thing as archaic words when they are not. The NKJV used the three-syllable words “animal” [45 times] or “animals” [39 times] where...

I do not disapprove of anyone reading the KJV even reading only the KJV as you try improperly to misrepresent what I state. In disobedience to a command of God, you bear false witness with your false accusations and strawman misrepresentations of me. I love the KJV and accept the KJV as what...

You continue your use of carnal smear tactics and strawman distortions as you make false accusations that bear false witness. You do not prove any of my statements to be "lies" yet you repeatedly throw out that bogus false accusation. In contrast, it has been soundly demonstrated that you do...

Jack McElroy contended: “Each Bible says and means two different things. The Lord can’t have the same verses saying two different things without looking inconsistent” (Which Bible, p. 138). Jack McElroy asserted: “The Lord can’t recommend both of these Bibles because they say and mean the exact...

After citing Isaiah 34:16, Gary John Rov referred to “this 1611 King James Bible, ‘the book of the LORD’, in the right hand of God on the throne” (Called of God, p. 59, p. 60). After quoting Isaiah 34:16 (p. 305), Jack McElroy suggested that the 1611 KJV is that book of the LORD that the Lord...

Concerning 2 Timothy 3:15, Jack McElroy asserted: “Timothy’s mom and grandmother had ‘the holy scriptures’ in their possession. They had copies—not originals” (Which Bible, p. 235). Jack McElroy maintained that “Scripture was in Timothy’s possession” (p. 256). Did Jack McElroy, and over twenty...

The KJV translators failed to follow their Hebrew Masoretic text's marginal reading at Isaiah 9:3 as they had followed it at Exodus 21:8. John Eadie asserted: “The Masora gives fifteen instances where lo should be written so as to signify ‘to him’—and not to signify ‘not.’ Thus in Isaiah 9:3...

You try to claim that you are not KJV-only yet you favorably repost inconsistent, incorrect KJV-only reasoning of KJV-only author Jack McElroy, who uses double standard or divers measures. The truth remains that the Hebrew name for God or the Greek name for God is not found in the KJV's and...

Concerning the Bishops’ Bible, Henry Barker wrote: “In the tenth edition (1577) the Great Bible Psalms appear alone, as is the case in the seventeenth and eighteenth editions of 1595 and 1602. Several editions of the Bishops’ Bible contain the Prayer Book Psalms. In one and all there is the...

Spencer Smith wrote: "One of the more troubling theological statements attributed to Jack Hyles involved comments he made concerning his unsaved father and the possibility of alleviating his suffering in Hell through his own life and ministry. On February 7, 1988, Jack Hyles preached a sermon...
