My response was that the Bible-believing churches from Galatia to 1611 had copies of the Word of God. God did not depend upon man in any way, shape or form to see that His Word would stand.

Read up on Westcott and Hort sometime and see just how ungodly they actually were - not fellows that I would trust to carry on an honest, faithful and true translation of a book they both despised.

So they all had the Geneva bible before the KJV? Or was it something else ...

All those churches could not have had the same identical versions ... since they were all copies, of copies, of copies ... the point is that all of those versions were and are the preserved word of God ... not just one of them.

Yet today people argue that only the KJV is the inspired word of God ... implying that God preserves His word in a particular translation.

You have actually provided a great argument that God does not preserve his word in a single translation but rather through a plethora of manuscripts.
