| Re: | | ****UPDATED****
I don't hear anyone in this discussion saying KJV only.
Still just trying to compare verses.
You don't have to prove you are spiritual and love the lost just because you don't read the KJV. I am not questioning anyone's spirituality. I keep trying to bring everyone back to scripture comparison of translations, but it seems no one wants to do this. I am not saying anyone has a religious spirit and I hope you are not saying that, too.
You can be concerned with the continued changes of God's Word and still be concerned about the lost and new Christians. It does not have to be an either/or.
Does anyone at all think that Satan conspires to water down and destroy the Bible? No one seems to want to answer this question.
If you want to show someone (lost or new Christian) that God "heals the brokenhearted", don't use a "modern" version, because you won't find it.

| Re: | | Maybe you're having problems with folks listening because you posted on our Recommended Books thread - the "Readers Digest"?

| Re: | | I'm a lover of the KJV and believe it to be the best translation. For English I hold it to be the standard. I don't trust many of the modern versions because they change many meanings of verses. Satan trys to confuse many people by getting them to doubt God's Word by getting them to find one that agrees with their thoughts. Many of the modern versions use flawed texts. I remember when the NIV first came out, it left whole passages out and had footnotes that cast doubts on God's Word. The KJV has stood the test of time.
However,should we not compare the translations to the original rather that to each other? _________________ James

MrBillPro....Maybe we should use the original Hebrew version Moses wrote, I wonder how much wording changed from the original Hebrew version Moses wrote,
For those who missed the first part of the Movie, I ask him to compare the original Hebrew version Moses wrote, to the KJV, so for he has avoided the task by being stuck on comparing the NASB to the KJV. _________________ Bill

| Re: | | Yes, if you can compare to the original, please do.
Otherwise, like you said, the KJV is the standard. |

JB, in my opinion anything later than the original Hebrew Version is considered new/modern version, or are we going to debate the word modern now? _________________ Bill

I never said the KJV was the standard, were you talking to me? please show me were I said that, and I may have and just don't remember. Comparing the Hebrew version to the KJV is no different than comparing the NASB to the KJV, well in my world. _________________ Bill

| Re: | | Sorry about the Readers Digest thing, I was only using that as an example how God could use it to speak to us Spiritually if he wanted, like he used a donkey in the Bible, hope this clears that up. I am not comparing the RD to the Word of God. _________________ Bill
