Do you consider copyists errors issues?

Answer the question:

Would you lose your life over a book with “issues”/“copyist errors” in it?

There is a perfect reliable Bible. I’m not the one imputing “issues” to the word of God, others like yourself are…

I agree there are reliable Bibles but perfect only applies to the original texts that we don’t have anymore.

I would die rather than deny my faith in Jesus, I don’t know how the Bible would be in contention

But wait a minute…

Isn’t everything you “know” about Jesus from an “imperfect” book with “errors”?

How can you have faith in someone you only heard about in a book with “errors”?

You could pick any word in the King James Bible, and I can find it in modern English print. I even have a whole book documenting this.
"mayest", "thou", "believest", "unto" "havock", "beforetime", "beholding", "unto", "whomsoever", "thy", "hast", "iniquity", "spake", "Esaias", "thither" "speaketh", "doth"

All of these words are found in a chapter of Acts selected at random (chapter 8). None of these words are found in modern English! They are all obsolete.

"mayest", "thou", "believest", "unto" "havock", "beforetime", "beholding", "unto", "whomsoever", "thy", "hast", "iniquity", "spake", "Esaias", "thither" "speaketh", "doth"

All of these words are found in a chapter of Acts selected at random (chapter 8). None of these words are found in modern English! They are all obsolete.

How about these words:

use what version you want i use kjv MY CHOICE GET IT ?
Fine. It's your choice. I prefer the NRSVue, the NET, and the NIV. I don't really care which version you prefer, as long as you don't claim that your preference is THE word of God.

I’ve actually liked and got some help out of some of the things Ellen White wrote. I’m quite able to read a man or woman and grab what I see is true and that helps me and forgive them what I think they have wrong and what I don’t think I see in scripture. I think the only thing that would make me not give a man my ear at ALL would be if he tried to demagnify Jesus in some way. They are human you know. And Ellen wasn’t writing scripture you know.
Ive also got help from some dusty old Catholic writings. Once again, I might skip over a place or two where I found No help or thought they were wrong. But I wasnt there to pounce on mistakes of men as if they must be perfect in understanding. I wasn’t starting with a denominational package and looking for where they didn’t match it so I could beat on them. I was just looking for helps along my journey.

But you know, some people don't want to hear your opinion. They want to hear their opinion come out of your mouth.
I don’t know where I read that so unfortunately I can’t quote a name.

edit: sorry I didn’t quote the post from pages back I was referencing. Thought I was reading the last post of the thread. Oops.

edit AGAIN: Nope, I see I posted in the wrong head…getting old, it’s not for sissies.

Carry on folks. :jest:

... but if it is error, isn't it better to know now?, and to go from this moment forward with something better, and true?
Can you apply that to yourself? What if it’s you who have been led into error...what then?

"mayest", "thou", "believest", "unto" "havock", "beforetime", "beholding", "unto", "whomsoever", "thy", "hast", "iniquity", "spake", "Esaias", "thither" "speaketh", "doth"

All of these words are found in a chapter of Acts selected at random (chapter 8). None of these words are found in modern English! They are all obsolete.
"mayest", "thou", "believest", "unto" "havock", "beforetime", "beholding", "unto", "whomsoever", "thy", "hast", "iniquity", "spake", "Esaias", "thither" "speaketh", "doth"

Esaias is a name, and is spelled that way in koine Greek ("ησαιας", Matthew 15:7; Mark 7:6). It's a transliteration into English. That's not archaic, that's transliteration of koine Greek. What deception to attempt to sneak that into the 'archaism' list. This is what always occurs with those who attack the KJB for 'archaisms' They have to cheat, and fatten the list with things that do not belong in the conversation The name "Esaias" is quoted presently, all over the world, simply citing the Bible.

The names is even modern spelling for some persons names - "Israeli officials stand next to a Hawk system in Jericho in 1993. Photo: Esaias Baitel/Gamma-Rapho via Getty Images" - U.S. asked Israel for its Hawk missiles to send to Ukraine

"Rhodri Howell of E Esaias & Son Funeral Directors, 39 Bridge Street, Kenfig Hill, Bridgend, CF33 6DB. Tel 01656 740491" - (2023) - The latest death notices across the Valleys and Bridgend

You also wrote "unto" twice. nothing like 'padding' the score, is there, eh?

You are a deceiver, and deceived.
