The KJV is all I understand

[rockytopva]

The KJV is all I understand - Thank the Free Will Baptist for that. They would take me out to eat as a teenager after church, and before I left they presented me with a KJV Open Bible signed by the membership. I would read that bible seven times over with the help of the Strong's Exhaustive Concordance. I am afraid the KJV Bible is all I will ever own.

And if you are blessed and grow by reading it, may He continually bless you. Keep on keeping on.

Rocky,
Are you afraid that if you were to read 2 or 3 different MV - ( especially study Bibles) you might like them and learn even more?
And if that were to happen - would you feel you betrayed the FWB?

(Note: I have pastored a FWB church several years ago)

That must have made school difficult for you.

If I am the only one on the planet that still reads and studies the KJV that is alright with me. I know of the saints it has produced in earlier generations. And... Also a lack of saints in the current generation. Too many people are being told... "That's alright honey!" My sister raised a nephew on that kind of talk and the results were a total mess!

Rocky -
NO one is saying it is wrong to study the KJV -
But as the saying goes - Why have hamburger when you can have steak!
You might be surprised if you were to use some MV study Bibles!

BTW, Rocky, would love to have your answer to my question in post # 3

When I sat and listened to a preacher preach from the KJV I always believed what they had to say. Now when i listen to a sermon preached from other versions I find myself worrying that something is off the mark here. And I also consider the non KJV version sermon very dry. It is like... My gosh how boring and lifeless! Am I caffenated enough for all of this?

Have you read a modern version you could not comprehend?

Some of the craziest, most theologically in the ditch, teaching I have ever heard was preached using KJV.

I know. Jesus preached out of the 1611, so we should use it too.
