Critical warning for KJB believers from Bryan Ross

[Logos1560]

KJV defender Bryan Ross wrote:​

"This is a critical warning for King James Bible believers: we're seeing a dangerous drift into mysticism and Gnosticism within our circles. Gary Roverino [wrote under the penname G. John Rov] is now claiming he's reached the highest level of biblical understanding - so high that 'God cannot hide secrets from him anymore.' Sound familiar?

What started as defending the King James Bible has morphed into something far more sinister. Gary has created a four-stage hierarchy of biblical competency, placing himself at the top in 'unconscious competence' - claiming divine revelation that even the KJV translators didn't have. He's now making fellowship contingent not on the gospel or core Christian doctrine, but on accepting his bizarre interpretations involving numerology, woodcut images, and the Apocrypha being hidden in Isaiah 16.

Here's what's alarming: this is growing. People are uprooting their families and moving to Arizona to join his movement. They're accepting that you need Gary's special guru-level insight to truly understand your Bible. That's textbook Gnosticism - secret knowledge available only to the enlightened few."

Bryan Ross has made some youtube videos in response to the stated views of Gary John Roverino.

This is what happens when certain people make even the Kjv an idol

Good Grief! If there were not mystics associated with the KJV believers I would be surprised indeed and if you were not one of the men to find it and report it I would be double surprised.



Jn 7:17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.

The KJVO myth has no Scriptural support, nor anything else that lends any truth to it, so its supporters have to make stuff up to try to make it appear as legitimate. Without any Scriptural support, it cannot be true, no matter how much and what types of embellishments that KJVOs try to add to it. No wonder that the KJVO myth has slipped into such non-Biblical practices !

I think Robycop3 has hit an important point, we must be seekers of truth, trained in rightly dividing the word of truth, able to recognize wolfs in sheep's clothing. We must have the skill to see if what people say is consistent with God's word. I am no fan of what I see is agenda driven translation choices in the NLT, but I know or knew several people whose walk with Christ was enhanced because they better understood God's word using that translation. To conclude that one translation is so good, we should not consider others with differing insights is just silly. All of us should be wary of "cult" like behavior where adherents are supposed to isolate from others in the body of Christ.
