Trying To Understand KJVOnlyism

[Yeshua1]

Oh boy...

So God gave them verses and as time went on they found out the verses were correct? This is untrue ach.

This is exactly where you and other KJVOers go astray.

And you continue:

There is no reason to believe that God could not have supplied them with verses? Come on ach, that's ridiculous reasoning. Here we see your belief in DI and advanced revelations. Ach, you know this isn't factual.

What next, prove He didn't do it? Come on doc. Talk about circular reasoning. Even without the 'what next' your statement is still circular and there is much of this in the KJVOers apologetic. Plainly there is no proof for any of such contentions on the KJV translation. Why? Simply because this didn't take place.

God blessed us with a KJV, but He didn't theos pnuestos this to the translators. I'm certain based on your above assertion this must have happened as well. More DI.

There was and is no magic going on in its translation proccess. Your arguments are pure conjecture, arbitrary, sensationalistic, mere fantasticism, and such ideas have had to have come from Ruckmanism.

the ORIGINALS are what the KJVO are making the KJV be!
THEY were the only "authorized" word of God to mna directly, and the original language texts that we based versions off are the infallible texts, thus infallible versions off them!

I see once again the KJVOs have skeedaddled from a thread that exposes the "private parts" of their myth...its lacka SCRIPTURAL SUPPORT, its man-made, cultic, dishonest origin, the falsehood of its individual points, etc. etc.

This calls for a victory dance.

 

[robycop3]

Hey, KJVOs, you show your lack of sincerity by giving up so easily.

OTHER READERS, especially those trying to decide whether to believe KJVO or not...

You can see for yourselves that the KJVOs have no valid arguments to support their myth.

Now don't get me wrong; the KJV is an excellent English Bible translation, and happens to be the MOST-PRINTED book in history, counting the AV 1611 and all the subsequent KJV editions. Mao's "Little Red Book" nor the Koran, in all its editions, even comes close. I greatly admire the KJV and use it often, but I am fully aware that it's NOT the ONLY valid English Bible version out there.

So, while I don't diss the KJV, except to point out a few of its booboos to prove it's not perfect, I have nothing but CONTEMPT for the evil KJVO MYTH.

 

[preacher4truth]

And there we have it. There is no proof for KJVOnlyism.

The indisputable man-made origin of KJVO has been plainly presented; its facts can be easily verified with little effort. (I verified them the hard way, in libraries, before these PCs came along.) Plainly, KJVO is NOT of God.

The various points of KJVO have been proven wrong. The KJVOs themselves are constantly inventing new excuses as the ones they present are tagged out before they can get close to first base.

We see that some are in thrall to this myth, so badly that their matto could be, "My KJVO Doctrine, Right Or Wrong".

We see a whole trend developed around a false premise, a trend that has wrecked churches and doubtlessly pleases Satan immensely. We see ordinarily-intelligent men and women make themselves appear quite foolish by trying to defend the indefensible.

We, unfortunately, see some who claim to be Christians telling outright LIES in trying to justify that doctrine.

IMO, the KJVO myth is almost as bad as the false doctrines of 'salvation by worx', 'faith/prosperity', modalism, and a host of other false, man-made doctrines. No Christian should believe that garbage, especially BAPTISTS, who pride themselves on Sola Scriptura and believing the Scriptures LITERALLY.

I'm glad to see forums such as this one, with a large readership, where the falsehoods of KJVO can be laid bare in a form that anyone wondering about KJVO's varacity can study and easily discover those falsehoods for themselves.

I agree with you on the point of being glad that this is a forum with a large readership. To put it another way, I have no problem with the first three letters, the KJV. If one wants to read that Bible version and learn about the Lord from that version, that is fine, It is an accurate enough doctrine to understand the nature of Jesus Christ and the Gospel.

Where we start to agree is those who add the "O" to the KJV. It is no ones business what I read, or what anyone else reads other than themselves. As I have said in other threads, I read the NKJV for reading in church and the NIV for studying at home. I also have a Bible reference book, and a book to translate Hebrew and Greek words, since I have no knowledge of these languages.

Personally, I think two areas in this forum has caused more division and harm than any other subject, that being the KJVO people, and those who harp on Calvinism vs free will. They never talk about anything else, and every thread without exception ends up in name calling and insults.

 

[preacher4truth]

Let's not forget those who harp on politics incessantly will pop into a DoG thread to tell them they harp on it too much and tell them to talk about something else, and back to their political threads they go. :laugh:

Anyhow, it's apparent no one can prove the KJVO claims. :thumbsup:

In another thread, I was trying to make a division between those things in Scripture that are absolutes, and those things that are individual beliefs and are no one else's business. Absolutes are things like the diety of Christ, the nature of the Gospel, inerency of Scripture, etc. Those things that are individual beliefs are things like KJV and other versions of the Bible. The problems, divisions and name calling comes into play when these theological geniuses try and make the individual belief catagory absolutes. One of these days, their ten foot nose stuck in someone's face is going to get chopped off. LOL

Agreed. I do however believe that some should be warned against KJVO and some horrendous Bible versions such as The Mess & the New Simplified Bible.

I think in some instances it would be dangerous for some to build doctrine off of the way these versions read. Imagine attempting to convince them of error and they won't budge because that's what their Bible says and because God spoke to them. :love2:
