An excellent article -- unfortunately highly excerpted per list rules -- read the entire article at the link.

"How hypocritical and sordid of the church authorities relentlessly to suppress the KJV, only to take it out and gawp at it in an anniversary year, as if it were a museum piece and we were all blundering tourists. The proper place for the KJV is on the lectern in every parish church – to be read, marked, learnt and inwardly digested, week in, week out."

Bible


"We are compelled to concede to the Papists
that they have the Word of God,
that we received it from them,
and that without them
we should have no knowledge of it at all."

~ Martin Luther

The King James Bible is the only Bible I use. Its the only one I trust.

I believe the many translations we have today with a few exceptions such as The Jefferson Bible are too GOD’s Glory and purpose too spread the Gospel too all nations. Few nations can read old English. Few can read Greek, Latin or Aramaic. But most can understand The Bible translated into their language.

If newer English translations helps a person that's good. If others rather only use KJV more power too them. The Lord isn't concerned in what language you use to read or pray. He's concerned about a persons heart and eternal soul.

But the KJV is wrong about Joseph’s coat of many colors.
