roby how is a Book considered a Bible what is the Canon?
A book calling itself a Bible is valid if it follows accepted Scriptural manuscripts closely. My best advice for learning about the canon is to Google"how the bible's canon was formed".
The KJV has never been disputed but yet all other English MV's have been, do you ever wonder why that is ?
No, cuz the KJV HAS been disputed, especially in its early years. There were many "Geneva Onlies" in those days. In fact, every English BV ever made has been disputed.
See the modern MV's make you feel, "oh yea I am doing fine I can do whatever and God loves me." thats what Satan wants you to think. There have been many post's many many times how the MV's make everything OK.
Can't speak for anyone but myself, but I feel thankful to be able to read God's word freely, in several versions.
I could literally post pages and pages of where MV's error in there ""Translation"" vs the KJV.
Sure, but almost all of them would be wrong. This has been amply demonstrated on this very forum.
And from 1611 to what 1978 we had KJV then it was NIV and the NIV was worse then than it is now so it has improved but, Its not KJV.
Right. And it's Ford Focus, not Model T. Times change.
I have read NIV, NASB, The Message, Book of Mormons, Watchtower, you name it if its in English and claims to be Bible I have read it. I can tell you NONE of them have the POWER and PRESENCE of the Holy Spirit.
Neither does the KJV. He indwells every believer's heart, not the book he's/she/s reading.
Prime Example Psalms 1 read that in any MV you like its just not the same as the KJV, the power is gone with MV's, but not the KJV I get Holy Ghost bumps just thinking about reading it.
It's Holy SPIRIT, not Holy "Ghost". He is a living, thinking BEING, not some disembodied soul.
I'm glad you get some kinda favorable reaction reading your fave Bible version. However, I've never hearda "Holy Spirit bumps". Ya might wanna make sure you're not actually experiencing something else.
Psalms 1 theres a sermon for Wednesday night.
Kewl if ya found sermon material on this forum!
