I have a copy of KJV that I got from the Mormons. I've wondered for a while if the Mormons made any changes to it.

I'd like to use it on a daily basis, but I don't want to if they made any changes. Does anyone know if the Mormons tampered with the KJV?

I would put it on a shelf and go to a GOOD Baptist BookStore and buy one that you KNOW hasn’t been “tampered” with.

I don't think all the passages were Jesus said, "Vote for Mitt Romney in 2012" were in the original KJV... ;)

The Bible they give out for free is a standard copy of the text, but the fact is that Joseph Smith did make changes to the KJB. These changes are held to as true by the “enlightened” Mormon.

This link will provide you with information . . .

***Does anyone know if the Mormons tampered with the KJV?***

Most likely it is a copy printed in Nashville by a well known non mormon printing house. Later they began to print their own in Salt Lake.

It is used as a “bait and switch” for people not aware of what they teach.

You call them for their free offer of a KJV, They send you one. Then a few weeks later they call you and want to give you another “testament” the Book of mormon. Then they begin to tell you how the KJV is not properly translated and wish to send some missionaries to your home.

I found their phone representatives to be so ingorant on the bible that they don’t know what Galatians is or what it says.

Interesting that they would send out a book (KJV) that they do not consider properly translated. NO Christian group would ever do that!
