I dont know of any English Bible that's based on the Textus Receptus other than the KJV, perhaps you can enlighten the forums with your knowledge of the others you claim?

The New King James Version is based upon the Majority text type, I don't know of any others?
The NKJV is based on the TR, not the Majority Text.

Off the top of my head, the following are based on the T.R.: the Webster's Bible, Wesley's New Testament, Revised Common Version, Voice in the Wilderness Bible, Modern English Version, New King James Version, Modern King James Version, LITV, KJ3, The October Testament (a modern revision of the Matthew's Bible N.T.), Revised Geneva New Testament, Young's Literal Translation (and there's a modern revision of its N.T.). There are others, but I can't remember them all off-hand.

Then there are some based on the Majority Text: World English Bible, English Majority Text Version (N.T. only), Analytical Literal Translation (N.T. only), Wilbur Pickering's New Testament and the Text Critical New Testament (there's also a Greek Orthodox one, but I can't recall its name).

The book of Enoch warns of this there are actually 3 warnings

The Warning of Corrupted Words: A time when eternal truths, scripture, or moral teachings are perverted, making lies sound like truth and distorting righteous doctrine
The Warning of Divided Blood / Family Fracture: A breakdown within human relationships where social and familial bonds fracture from within (such as children turning against parents
The Warning of the Great Falling Away (Apostasy and Deception): A deep spiritual condition characterized by widespread deception, a loss of the fear of God, and lukewarm or performative faith among believers

They are happening right now.

Thanks for the response!

The NKJV uses the corrupt critical edition in the Old Testament created by Rudolph Kittle (1853-1929) "Biblia Hebraica" that's used in most of the modern counterfeits, the 1611 KJV uses the historical Hebrew Masoretic Text, following the Ben Asher closely

Thanks for the response!

Wikipedia: New King James Version (NKJV) is a translation of the Bible in contemporary English, working as a revision of the King James Version. Published by Thomas Nelson, the complete NKJV was released in 1982. With regard to its textual basis, the NKJV relies on a modern critical edition (the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia) for the Old Testament,[1] while opting to use the Textus Receptus for the New Testament.[2][a]

I didn't address the O.T. text; but you're right, the NKJV uses an edition of the Biblia Hebraica.

The Webster Bible is a "Revision" of the KJV and the Common Version is a "Revision" of the Webster bible
The "Common Version" was a kind of nickname for the Webster. The Revised Common Version is a modernised revision of that; however, the Webster and the R.C.V. are still different translations from the K.J.V., although the Webster is very closely based on it.

The Webster was a "Revision" of the KJV not a translation, Webster changed archaic and offensive words, he didn't use a Greek text to do so, it would have been a translation if he did use a Greek text

Wikipedia: Webster's Revision
Noah Webster's 1833 limited revision of the King James Version, (more commonly called Webster Bible) focused mainly on replacing archaic words and making simple grammatical changes. For example: "why" instead of "wherefore", "its" instead of "his" when referring to nonliving things, "male child" instead of "manchild", etc.[1] He also introduced euphemisms to remove words which he found to be offensive: "whore" becomes "lewd woman". He changed some of the spelling of the 1611 version, some of which had been changed by British usage since 1611 and others that he himself had deliberately changed in his dictionary to reflect an American identity over a British one.
