So you are saying God is an old man that is weak and it took him a long time to get his word right and somehow after a million tries finally got it right when? In 1611? The 1611 KJV is different than todays KJV's!God was purifining the Bible, though that dosen't mean there was no gospel in them
Do note, the Vulgate once had dominance and no one could read it.
Also, pre-1611, Many versions had errors
The 1611 edition of the KJV had errors. The 1629 Cambridge edition of the KJV still had errors. The 1769 Oxford edition of the KJV had errors. Many editions of the KJV had errors.Also, pre-1611, Many versions had errors
Yes, there are over 2,000 differences between the 1611 edition of the KJV and a typical today's KJV edition.The 1611 KJV is different than todays KJV's!
The KJV was and is used to teach varying and conflicting doctrines.As long as man differs on Biblical doctrine, there will be new versions written to lean toward those preferences.

The Church of England makers of the KJV changed some renderings in the pre-1611 English Bibles thought to teach congregational church government to renderings more favorable to Church of England episcopal church government.
Your human opinion and your non-scriptural claims for the KJV are not Scripture or God's Word.I'm banking on the 1611 KJV, along with millions of others before me.
Your human opinion and your non-scriptural claims for the KJV are not Scripture or God's Word.
Would you suggest that God did not magnify His word above all His name in the 1537 Matthew's Bible or in the 1560 Geneva Bible? How can you justly suggest that Psalm 138:2 only applies to the KJV?
He purified it seven times. Watch TruthisChrist channel.So you are saying God is an old man that is weak and it took him a long time to get his word right and somehow after a million tries finally got it right when? In 1611? The 1611 KJV is different than todays KJV's!
These changes are irrevalant as these were printer errors and language changes. They were not rewritting it or revising it as the RSV.Mickey Carter claimed: “Things that are different are not the same. Bibles that are different are not the same” (Things That Are Different, p. 77). Phil Stringer also asserted: “Things that are different are not the same” (Unbroken Bible, p. 210). M. H. Tabb wrote: “Things different are not the same” (Inspiration, p. 90). Jack McElroy wrote: “Like they say, things that are different can’t be the same” (Which Bible, p. 186). Craig Savige asserted: “The basic rule for consistency is: That which is different CANNOT be the same” (Why Faith Christians, p. 24). John C. Phillips acknowledged: “The word same means identical, not different or other” (King James Contender, May, 1980, p. 2). Michael Hollner declared: “Every Word of God means every single word, no exceptions” (King James Only, p. 173).
Peter Van Kleeck, Jr. wrote: “Change the words and you change the Bible” (Then He Poked, p. 32). Marty Braemer claimed: “Change the wording and you change the meaning” (This Little Light, p. 1). H. D. Williams wrote: “Change the words and the meaning changes” (Word-for-Word, p. 116). Steve Combs wrote: “To change the words is to change the meaning” (Practical Theology, p. 113). E. W. Whitten claimed: “If you change the Words, punctuation, tense, position, or anything, it is no longer Scripture” (Truth, p. 39). Charles Kriessman wrote: “If words are changed, meanings are changed” (Modern Bible, p. 93). Peter Van Kleeck, Jr. wrote: “In the case of the word of God, to change the words is to change the substance” (Then He Poked, p. 32). D. A. Waite wrote: “When words are different, the meaning, no matter how slightly, cannot possibly be the same” (Foes, p. 95). Jack McElroy wrote: “You can’t use different English words without changing the meaning in many passages” (Which Bible, p. 135). Al Lacy contended: “DIFFERENT WORDS CAUSE CONFUSION” (Can I Trust, p. 106). Jack Hyles asserted: “Two things that don’t agree cannot both be right” (Need for an Every-Word Bible, p. 23). Jack Hyles claimed: “If two books do not contain the same words, one of them cannot contain the words of God” (p. 16). T. S. Luchon declared: “God wants His Words written as He gave the Words, and He wants no other Words!” (From the Mind of God to the Heart of Man, p. 40).
Ken Matto claimed: “We must never think that anything written in scripture can be deleted without consequence” (Modern Version Incursion, p. 330). Ken Matto declared: “God gave every word in the Bible for a purpose, and for someone to remove anything is to endanger the eternal souls of people” (p. 369). Ken Matto wrote: “If there is one thing we have learned, it is that every word in the Bible has significance” (p. 208). Ken Matto asserted: “Do not fall for the idea that words in the Bible are not important and that only concepts are” (p. 181). Thomas Corkish declared: “Any ‘dross’ or mixture’ added makes it an impure word, violating God’s sacred, settled standard of perfection” (Brandenburg, Thou Shalt Keep, p. 147). In his introduction to his book entitled God’s Chosen Edition of the KJB, Matthew Verschuur claimed: “Because the editions of the King James Bible differ in words, letters, spelling, punctuation and grammar, there can be only one which is pure, right and chosen.”
Emanuel Rodriguez declared: “In order for a Bible to be correct it must have every word of God accurately translated in the receptor language” (God’s Bible, p. 15). Charles Kriessman claimed: “Dynamic Equivalence is employed when words in the text are either added, subtracted, or changed in some way” (Modern Version, p. 78). In his criteria for translating, H. D. Williams wrote: “Under no circumstance should words be added, subtracted, or changed in other ways” (Word-for-Word Translating, p. 230). M. H. Tabb asserted: “All Bible Correctors subtract from the words of God” (Inspiration, p. 208). KJV-only author Ken Matto asked: “How can anyone build their faith on what is omitted in the Bible?” (Modern Version, p. 190), but would he apply his own question to the places where the KJV omits words? Is nothing taken away or subtracted from the original-language texts in any of the following KJV renderings? Gary Miller asserted that KJV translators “made sure to clearly translate each and every word” (Why the KJB, p. 18). Michael Hollner claimed: “The A.V. of God’s Word holds nothing back, nor does it omit any of God’s Words” (King James Only, p. 5). Charles Keesee asserted: “If God inspired a word to be written down and your Bible does not contain it, then your Bible has an error” (Subtle Apostasy, p. 31).
Many KJV-only authors do not clearly, directly, and consistently apply their very own broad-sweeping assertions to all the actual verifiable facts concerning the many existing differences and changes in the many varying editions of the KJV including the varying Cambridge KJV editions. They tend to ignore or avoid the actual verifiable facts concerning the original 1611 edition and the over 2,000 changes that were made to it in later KJV editions. Why do they avoid the facts concerning the words changed in the 1611 edition, the words added to the 1611 edition, and the words omitted from the 1611 edition in the later KJV editions? They also ignore and avoid the verifiable facts concerning the 1769 Oxford edition of the KJV and the over 400 changes made to it. KJV defender Laurence Vance wrote: “There are 750 differences between the 1769 Blayney edition of the Authorized Version and modern King James Bibles: 461 Old Testament and 189 New Testament” (Text of the KJB, p. 220).
An error is still an error regardless of who supposedly introduced it whether printers, editors, or translators.Kindly please do not call the errors caused by printers to be considered errors. Those were not intended.
All the changes made to the 1611 edition of the KJV have not been soundly proven to be correction of printing errors and spelling updates.These changes are irrevalant as these were printer errors and language changes.
The King James Bible was made from the Bishops Bible, not perfect copies of the Original Hebrew and Greek , William Tyndale's Bibles, Matthew's Bible, Coverdale's Bibles, Geneva Bibles, Roman Catholic editions of the Original Languages, the Roman Catholic Rheims New Testament and different editions of the Textus Receptus. Other unnamed editions also. Thank you for admitting God allowed printing errors in the Bible. He also allowed other errors as well. He even allowed an Image of the Pagan god Pan to be printed in the Gospel of Matthew. Wouldn't that also be a mistake?Kindly please do not call the errors caused by printers to be considered errors. Those were not intended.
You are afraid to use your reason which God has given you. It is laziness for you to not think for yourself.The KJB is the word of God, not prefaces, images, headings and not scholars.
Stop attacking word of God, all others are satanic。
