Then why did you ask me if I had read them?

... more than a bit like OT Israel, is it not. :no reply:

:rolleyes: Have you seen the autographs to compare the KJV to? [I have seen manuscripts that predate the Textus Recepticus to compare it to and determine that the TR has errors introduced by copyists which were carried over into the KJV that was translated in part from the TR into English ...

Peter had your number and warned us about teaching like that: 2 Peter 2:1 [KJV] But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves...

No, I teach sinners to place their trust in an error-free Savior. The Bible is just a book about Him. Which bible is “error free”?

MGNT is closest to the Autographs, and the autographs are the pure word of God. (Although Jesus is the Word of God and can be found in any of the translations that I listed … or, absent ‘eyes to see’ courtesy of the Holy Sprit, none of the translations).

Some people believe things that are simply not true.

Blue Letter Bible (dot) org ”In a multitude of counselors, there is wisdom.” [I prefer to read multiple translations to compare them and then go to the “Interlinear” and the ”Dictionaries” and “Lexicons” when there are significant differences to see for myself WHY there are significant...

Not really. It ignores the fact that the Septuagint OT differs from the Hebrew OT so the KJV based on the Greek OT is different from the OT found in the Dead Sea Scrolls and other ancient Hebrew copies. He is using an English translation that has harmonized passages by changing the original...

The AUTOGRAPHS do not exist any more. Copies using Koine Greek exist. Lexicons and Grammar texts in Koine Greek exist. Bibles created from the 99% of the manuscript words that agree (in Koine Greek) with footnotes noting the alternatives exist. You do know that the majority of manuscript...

On the other hand, almost NOBODY has ever read the 1611 version. If they saw it, they would see how difficult the FONT used is to read and how DIFFERENT the basic shapes of even the letters are (not to mention the spelling). However most of the problems with the First Edition (1611) were...

If you don’t want to change the Bible, then learn archaic Greek. If you are not reading the original Greek, then the Bible HAS been changed. The KJV was neither the first nor the most recent translation into English … it is just the official version of the Anglican Church and one of the most...

“Wrong” is incorrect. There are probably lots of words that the KJV got wrong … none of them significant, but small changes based on 500 years of additional manuscripts discovered many hundreds of years older than the oldest copies available in 1611. The language drift of words in English is...

No. In other words, ”Ghost” meant “Spirit” in 1611 when the KJV was published and in 2023, “Ghost” and “Spirit” now mean different things because the meaning of the word “Ghost” has changed over the 400 years from 1600 to 1900.

The only Bible version (translation) to use "Holy Ghost" is the KJV. The newer versions (translations) were published after 1900 while the KJV was published in 1611. I think it reasonable that "ghost" is one of MANY words whose range of meanings has drifted from when Shakespeare used it to...

“You think you are getting away with it, but you are not. Everybody dies and one day it will be your turn. Then the bill comes due on all the crap you did that you knew was wrong and did anyway.” ”Bottom line, either your mouth saves you by claiming Jesus is God and your heart makes you right...

So are you patiently waiting for your chance to become a god of your own planet and "savior" of the people that you fathered to inhabit your personal planet, like these other "Christians" teach God was made and fathered the human race on this world (and they will become after death)? I think a...

If anyone needs help with PL/1 on an IBM 360 … I’m your man! (However, since I don’t think either PL/1 or IBM 360 Computers exist outside of museums … I don’t expect any takers.) :cool: [I’ll just pray for you instead … the interface still works as well as the first day!]

Let's set the Catholics aside for a moment [since they have 'jumped the shark' with their mariology] and focus on Martin Luther (founder of the Lutheran Church and a giant during the Reformation). Luther would have argued (when he was alive) that "this man" got a lot of things wrong [Joseph was...
