What did Christians do for 1600 years before the KJV was published?
Is the KJV necessary for salvation?
Can non-English speaking people be saved?

Really . . . your questions are so elementary.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14pt]
KJV All scripture is given by inspiration of God,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14pt]
and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14pt]
for instruction in righteousness:[/SIZE]

[SIZE=14pt]A peacock is no more perfect or beautiful than a swan. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14pt]A peacock is simply magnified in the details. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14pt]Beauty under a magnifying glass, is magnified beauty. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14pt]When early English Bibles dawned, their simple lines [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]were like the swan. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14pt]Now they pale with the magnified [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]details of the beautiful King James Bible. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14pt]The previous Bishop’s Bible 1568-1611 was no less perfect, [/SIZE][SIZE=14pt]pure, and true than the KJV.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14pt] It’s beauty was simply polished, like pure gold is polished, [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14pt]so that the KJV magnifies and mirrors more finely the glorious [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14pt]
reflection of our precious Saviour, Jesus, the author.[/SIZE]

Didn't the KJV tell you to worship only God?? Christians are not supposed to worship the Bible. The Bible and God are not the same.

makahiya117 ..... I love the KJV .... Just hard to understand most of it without an old English dictionary nearby
That is why we have the popular NLT and NIV see below .... (from 1 Corinthians 16)
=======================
(King James Version) (difficult)
1. Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.
2 Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.
3 And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by your letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.
====================================
(New International Version translation) (Easier)
1. Now about the collection for God’s people: Do what I told the Galatian churches to do. 2 On the first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with his income, saving it up, so that when I come no collections will have to be made. 3 Then, when I arrive, I will give letters of introduction to the men you approve and send them with your gift to Jerusalem. 4 If it seems advisable for me to go also, they will accompany me.
=======================================
Corinthians 16 (New Living Translation) (very easy)
1. Now regarding your question about the money being collected for God’s people in Jerusalem. You should follow the same procedure I gave to the churches in Galatia. 2 On the first day of each week, you should each put aside a portion of the money you have earned. Don’t wait until I get there and then try to collect it all at once. 3 When I come, I will write letters of recommendation for the messengers you choose to deliver your gift to Jerusalem. 4 And if it seems appropriate for me to go along, they can travel with me.
