Featured Deity of Christ presented in English Bible translations

Perhaps erroneous KJV-only reasoning has blinded you or hinders you from seeing the truth.

This proper thread has the correct motive of presenting the truth that other English Bible translations clearly present the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ in contrast to the misleading, bogus KJV-only allegations.

 

You have failed to prove your bogus, incorrect allegations to be true.

Your repeating of improper, false allegations does not make them become true.

My scripturally-based arguments did not originate with Satanic gnostics of occult so your allegation would bear false witness.

 

I have not been a critic of the Holy Bible given by inspiration of God to the prophets and apostles. In agreement with actual clear scriptural truths, I acknowledge that errors introduced by men can be and should be corrected in Bible translations.

Do you in effect assert that the KJV translators supposedly used the same techniques of an infamous cult when they supported the correcting of errors introduced by imperfect men? Are you attacking the agenda of the Church of England makers of the KJV?

The KJV translators acknowledged that they engaged in a process of Bible correcting [that is, making corrections, improvements, and revisions to the pre-1611 English Bibles which they identified as being the word of God], and later editors/printers of KJV editions also engaged in a process of Bible correcting in making some corrections and revisions to the 1611 edition of the KJV.

In their dedication to King James, the KJV translators maintained that their translation would be "one more exact translation of the holy Scriptures into the English tongue," which would put their translation on the same level or in the same category as pre-1611 English Bibles such as the 1560 Geneva Bible and the 1568 Bishops' Bible.

Those who read the KJV are in effect accepting Bible correcting so that the obvious hypocrisy of those who make the inconsistent charge of Bible correcting against readers of other English Bible translations is clearly exposed.

The KJV translators asserted that if anything in a Bible translation was "not so agreeable to the original, the same may be corrected."

In their 1611 preface to the readers, the KJV translators wrote: "For by this means it cometh to pass, that whatsoever is sound already (and all is sound for substance in one or other of other editions, and the worst of ours far better than their authentic vulgar) the same will shine as gold more brightly, being rubbed and polished; also, if any thing be halting, or superfluous, or not so agreeable to the original, the same may be corrected and the truth set in place."

The KJV translators also asserted: "No cause therefore why the word translated should be denied to be the word, or forbidden to be current, notwithstanding that some imperfections and blemishes may be noted in the setting forth of it

 

You fail to prove that any Baptist believers in this forum have any so-called "occult agenda" against the KJV.

I read and accept the KJV as what it actually is. I present the truth concerning the KJV.

 

You fail to demonstrate that the KJV translators were directly referring to printers errors in their statement. Their statement would be as soundly directed at errors by Bible translators as by errors by printers.

if any thing be halting, or superfluous, or not so agreeable to the original, the same may be corrected and the truth set in place."

Errors would still be errors regardless of which imperfect men introduced them.
