    KJV versus Modern Translations

    And, of course, refuse to explain how the writings of the ECFs that are older than the Alexandrian Text contain references to verses that are MISSING from the Alexandrian Text but present in the Traditional Text.

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    No translation is perfect. If you're dissatisfied with the KJV, fine, don't read it. But, please don't argue that the Critical Text is more reliable than the Textus Receptus, especially given that the Early Church Fathers in letters that are OLDER than the Alexandrian MSS are quoting texts...

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    Self evident by its very nature doesn't require evidence. And it is self evident that "older" doesn't mean "better", it simply means "older" - your supposition is based on subjectivity, because the evidence actually points to "older" actually meaning "corrupted". Nice straw man. I have not...

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    Writings of Early Church Fathers support the Textus Receptus: "There are three that bare record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one." 1 John 5:7 The Critical Text completely distorts this verse but it is clearly referenced in the The Treatises of...

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    Would you feel better if is changed "assumption" to "supposition"? Because you suppose that "old" means "better", do you not? "...that you soon not be shaken in mind, nor troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us..." Does Paul acknowledge that there were things written...

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    You rely on "experts" that have a narrow view of the facts...and the notion that questionable MSS from Rome and Alexandria are proved to be what God originally intended for Christians to share with the world: Rome, which to this day hasn't figured out that salvation is by grace through faith in...

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    No, the revisionist historians are in the camp of the Alexandrian Text.

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    So what? He was a Catholic priest so dissatisfied with the errors of catholicism that he published a side-by-side comparison of the Byzantian Greek to the Latin on each page to show just how far off the mark was the papacy - which shows that your sympathies for Rome are much so than that of a...

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    While I'll admit I don't have "decades" of study, the scholars who rip apart the arguments of your "doctors" have been studying these issues for a long, long time...going back to the beginning. From Helvidius accusing Jerome of using corrupt MSS for the Vulgate to Dean Burgon and those that...

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    Hi, I see you are operating under the assumption that "older" means "more accurate". Says who? Did not this same Paul to whom you refer tell the Colossians that "we are not as many who corrupt the word of God"? Doesn't that mean the enemy was corrupting the word of God even before the close of...

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    I use all versions, but the most reliable is the one based on the Textus Receptus, which itself is based on the Traditional Text: the KJV. I use the 18th century, as I'm not up on words like "speake" and "prophesie" and "vderstand".

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    The claim by the pro-Critical Text panel participant that "the closest two Traditional Text MSS contains 6-10 variations per chapter" is a broad statement. What kind of "variations"? Do they significantly change the meaning of the passage? Should we not expect slight variations from a family of...

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    Are we to believe that the handful of MSS represented by the Alexandrian and the Western (Roman Catholic) are somehow more reliable than the thousands of MSS found in the Traditional (Byzantian/Majority) MSS?

    What about it?

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    Westcott and Hort's Critical Text relied mainly on Codex Sinaticus and Codex Vaticanus, but mostly on the former instead of the latter so as these two "Protestants" would not appear as they were: false Protestants who sympathized with Rome.
  16. Phoneman777

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    Sorry, Codex Vaticanus was "discovered" in the Vatican library in the 15th century. Its views are no different than that of the Arian church father Origen and its dated to be at the time which coincides with the writings of 4th century Eusebius, who is widely known as responsible for the 50 or...

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    Correction, not the Latin Vulgate, but the Vatican MSS is what was discovered in the 15 century. Of course the Vulgate was around - it is from which Wycliffe translated his Bible in the 12th.

    KJV versus Modern Translations

    I'll bet a bazillion dollars those videos you post are hit jobs that do nothing to acquaint the viewer with an accurate representation of the facts or history. As I stated earlier, only someone with ROMAN CATHOLIC SYMPATHIES could ever be pleased with the notion that God kept from His people...

    More Than His Body Was Nailed To The Cross

    The devil fought from the beginning of Christ's life to prevent Him from surviving childhood, from being anointed Messiah, from reaching Calvary, from dying as the spotless Lamb of God, from breaking free from the tomb of His death. But, at every turn victory belonged to Jesus. With the Savior...

    Please take the time to consider both sides of the issue: you have demonstrated yourself as being a "hack": a person interested only in advancing and idea or agenda without any regard whatsoever to the evidence against them.
