Are you suggesting Jesus told you KJV is correct?But the sheep hear Jesus' voice.
No, just that true believers know his voice when they hear it.Are you suggesting Jesus told you KJV is correct?
I would conclude the difference is in the use of textual variants.
Does that mean those who do not agree with you about the Comma, do not hear Jesus voice but you do? In other words they are NOT true believers?Just that true believers know his voice when they hear it.
A difference of only one letter.I would conclude the difference is in the use of textual variants.
Arguments from Analogy are faulty by their nature and for good reason.The Model T was produced from 1909 through 1927. Henry Ford had it made from the best materials available, with the latest engineering designs. His assembly lines became so efficiant that a car could be made from parts every 93 minutes.
During its production run, the Model T was made into dozens of variations. American LaFrance Co. modified some 900 of them into firetrucks. Some of the other variants made were touring cars, racing cars, various kinds of trucks, "sportabouts", & luxury cars. Over time, innovations such as electric starters, electric windshield wipers, better headlights & brake lights, etc. were added.
The Model T was the original SUV, being able to negotiate many wagon paths & rough, unpaved roads, & to cross many creek beds. However, this car still rode roughly over smooth surfaces. But this car remained easy for most owners to keep in repair.
However, tech for cars was increasing, & other cars were offering more features than the Model T, & also, modern paved roads were being laid, enabling cars to go faster more-smoothly. So, Ford replaqced the Model T with the Model A, suited for modern roads. But to this day, the Model T remains the 8th best-selling car model of all time, with over 16 million units made.
The KJV is a "Model T" Bible version. It was the best English version of its day, offering such features as easily-read marginal notes, the Apocrypha, an "Easter-Finder", & an outstanding preface. In time, it replaces virtually every other English version in common use. And the British govt. which held sway over most of the English-using world, outlawed the printing or sale of any other English version.
But the English language changed over time, especially in countries outside of Britain, & the language style of the KJV fell increasingly out of use. Also, many more Scriptural mss.had been discovered, bringing the wording of some verses into question, as well as better translation tools being used, which mshowed some goofs & booboos in the KJV. Thus, modern English Bible versions began to be made, which are in modern language, & correct many of the KJV's errors.
Now, the KJV remains a viable Bible version, same as the Model T remains a car. However, same as the Model T, the KJV is behind times when compared to modern versions.
God has caused His word to be translated into OUR language, & there's no valid reason not to read it & preach it in our own language. We don't drive Model Ts every day, so there's no reason to use only a "Model T" Bible version!
So if 50% of believer's believe one text over the other does that mean 50% are not really His sheep? John 8:47.But the sheep hear Jesus' voice.
Arguments from Analogy are faulty...
Educated people know this already.
That is a stupid comparison.
.
Roby, really, I mean, really doesn't know what he's talking about.I like the KJV. I really dont care what other people think about it.
Maybe they're idiots?So why do several KJV-only authors use a good tree analogy as an argument for their KJV-only view?
I know....Many KJV-only advocates inconsistently use a good tree of Bibles argument or a good stream of Bibles argument for their KJV-only claims while they ignore or avoid many verifiable facts about the actual Bibles on their own tree or in their own stream.
YES!!!!Do you in effect suggest that KJV-only advocates use faulty arguments as a basis for their human KJV-only teaching?
The difference is not just in the spelling of one word, the whole "with whom He is pleased" is not in the KJV.Indeed. See post #10 on this thread.
No, it doesn't...and no one asserts that.The fact that a poster disagrees with human KJV-only teaching/reasoning does not demonstrate any actual hatred for the KJV
No one alleges that.as some posters seem incorrectly to allege.
There are none, Logos...Where are the actual direct quotations where that poster asserts that anyone should hate the KJV
Arguments from Analogy are faulty by their nature and for good reason.

The King James Version bears no relation to a Model T car....
You know nothing of etymology or the evolution of the English Language. Language does not change in any way analogous to the evolution of manufactured machinery.
Languages are different, they are regionally relevant, (that effects both vocabulary and grammar, and differently at times) and they change on completely differing principles....The English language didn't evolve as a monolith uniformly in all places it was spoken...
You wouldn't know that, because you really don't know what you're talking about.
Also, anyone who pretends that the KJV argument is solely relegated to the evolution of language rather than including a manuscript argument is either deranged or deceitful.
You ignored the textual criticism argument in your assault on a venerated translation of the English Bible...which millions have trusted to learn about the God who can save their souls.
I am not KJVO...I understand something about the evolution of language...There's a wonderful podcast you could listen to for free if you cared (you don't, and you haven't)….
Look up ":The History of English Podcast" by Kevin Stroud....He's been working on it for YEARS...
He traces the language from it's primitive roots through centuries of change...
Folks, Roby has no idea what he's talking about, he doesn't really study these issues from genuine concern...
Somehow, some KJVO torqued him (probably decades ago) in a way that he can't look beyond and forgive...
He now spends his entire life going from internet board to internet board....(he takes his crusade to CARM as well) inventing reasons to hate the King James Bible.
He has no education in Textual Criticism, no knowledge of the Original Languages, and no real knowledge of the Etymology and grammar of the English Language.
He has merely hatred in his heart...
Thus, he has no argument than to pretend that a Bible Translation is a 20th Century manufactured car and pretend that it is a perfect analogy in order to deceive you into rejecting what may be the greatest translation of God's Word into the English Language ever attempted....it's hardly perfect the KJV...it didn't get EVERYTING right perhaps, but, whay translation will?
His personal crusade is evil, deranged, uninformed and
Wow, what an over reaction!Arguments from Analogy are faulty by their nature and for good reason.

His personal crusade is evil, deranged, uninformed and unworthy of consideration.
No.Wow, what an over reaction!
Perhaps the comparison with a model T was about outdated language perhaps?
Certainly you over react. They oppose KJVOnlyism, not the King James Version.No, it doesn't...and no one asserts that.
That's a Strawman.
No one alleges that.
They DO allege...
that someone who spends every waking hour of every decade of their life inventing reasons to scoff at and besmirch and malign the KJV...like you and Roby do...
hate the KJV...
That, is an assertion I'll defend.
There are none, Logos...
But, no one is accusing either you or Roby of intellectual honesty.....
We're accusing you of spending countless hours online on every board on the planet (Baptist Board isn't the only one) of finding fault with the KJB.
No one has accused you of admitting to hating the KJV..
I personally, accuse you, of spending countless hours denigrating it, the men who translated it, the King of England who commissioned it, the men who defend it, the greek texts underlining it, and the persons who love and defend it...
That, I DO accuse you of..
Tell me I'm wrong....
Your move.
Honestly,Certainly you over react.
No, they honestly hate the KJV.They oppose KJVOnlyism
Yes, they do.not the King James Version.
People like you, and Roby, do 100 times MORE damage to the cause of Christ with your obsession over a liner non-issue than the KJVO advocates ever did or can do, and you're equally as uninformed, faulty in your arguments, and deceitful as they are.
