Not only does Obama have an incorrect view of the world—as he is now beginning to learn from his failures—he is fighting against the greatest power in the universe when he tries to remove the Bible from public view.
The Catholic Bible with all the books had been on earth long before the KJV.
Everyone needs to check the facts.
But, it wasn’t in the language of the people!
This article is about England and the King James Bible.
As a Christian, aren't you happy when the message of the Gospel spreads around the world? Or do you only care if the message is a Catholic one?
Heheh. I’ve got my helmet on.
How any institution of higher learning can reject the Bible is beyond me. They’re in denial. There is nothing more important in ancient history/literature than the Bible and they try to pretend it’s not there.
There are some Gasbag professors that will state their opinions of the Bible but so many of them don’t really have much of a clue. So many are ignorant and want to lead the ignorant.
Beautiful prose. Should be a must, even in these pc-times, for an English literature major to study this work.
Every day my sense of awe increases as to the beauty and power of the Scriptures.
Nevertheless, Luther changed the Bible (took out words and added words) so the King James is incomplete and inaccurate.
Yet millions of souls are saved eternally as you quibble over words.
This followed the publication of Luther’s Bible in German in 1534, which did a great deal for the German language.
Do tell what the German Martin Luther had to do with the English King James Bible.
I'm all ears.
One of my favorite books is Gone with the Wind. Cynical Rhett Butler always uses phrases from the King James to pink Scarlett at the worst moments. This led me as a youth to buy the bible and read it. We had a Catholic bible which is less beautiful.
Oy vey, this ride makes me dizzy...
I don’t know if it’s across the board, but the vocal Catholic proselytizers on FR all seem to believe that everything “Protestant” originated with Martin Luther. It didn’t. Despite their evident trauma, he wasn’t even the first. Luther was inspired by Hus. Hus was inspired by Wycliffe. If there’s any association at all between the KJV and Martin Luther, it goes back to Wycliffe, two centuries before. Luther and Lutherans were shall we say frowned upon by the Church of England, which did not deem itself “Protestant.”
