Most people use the king James, when I got converted in 1979. I was unofficially king James only and began to notice modern versions creeping in over the years. About 10 years ago I was exposed to some King James only divisions versus modern versions. Then I saw the conspiracy. This video is worth every second of your watching. You will learn so much of how we got our Bible. I’m watching it as we speak.wow thats a long documentary. did you start out as a KJV only or were you converted to KJV only ? @Truther
Go for it.The video seems to be at least 10 parts. It takes two hours to watch the whole thing. I am going for everything at once.
WELL HEY!! You can't go too far wrong with the KJV. Personally I'm a KJVP. It's my preferred version - has been for 75 years. I've learned a good many of the "Work-arounds" for the areas of BAD translation, and knowing the language used, makes finding things in a concordance a walk in the park.see video above

But KJVO??? that's just another rabbit trail.
No need to. I've been fully aware of all the "Theological arguments" for decades. ALL God's Chilluns gots "Theologies".Obviously, you did not watch the video. Oh well.
The simple FACT is that the KJV contains errors of FACT, and lousy translation areas that obscure, and sometimes completely obliterate the MEANING of passages. Lists of issues, both REAL, and interpretive, are easily found on Google. Consequently any claims that the KJV is "PERFECT", are easily discarded.No need to.

yes kjo is a rabbit trail with many holes.WELL HEY!! You can't go too far wrong with the KJV. Personally I'm a KJVP. It's my preferred version - has been for 75 years.

Agreed. The KJV is the greatest book ever written in the Enlgish language. It's time in the sun is over. Now it is the worst translation available in English today.King James was great for that particular point in history but it's outdated today.

The manuscripts are older and more reliable with newer translations, making the FROM part of the translation inferior.
In addition, the TO part of the translation is in Middle English. We simply don't speak this way today in 21st century America. I consider it essentially unreadable.
KJO is IDOLATRY. Such folks kept me from reading the Bible for decades.
No sir.Well, but most modern translations are paraphrases, no? Surely literal translations are better to start with right from the bat
