" The Authorized King James Bible has been, and continues to be, the God honored, most accurate, and best English translation of the inspired, inerrant, infallible, and preserved original language words of God."

God honored, eh? Well, by God, if the KJV is good enough for God, its good enough for me! :)

"and preserved original language words of God."

This group is crypto-Mohammedan, I take it.

I wondered how they knew that.

Probably they see the differences in the KJV and the LXX, and suspect the tricky Greeks hoodwinked them :).

This guy has had to many "magic brownies."

The nire I study if the ministry of the Holy SPirit, the more I have bcome convinced that the import of Scriptueal study is to remain in fellowship with God through faith in Christ, thereby allowwing God the Holy Spirit make the LOGOS perceptible to the student and deliver that faith to the believer. All faith is from God, and when we begin to rely on human transltions rather than His work in us, we fail to allow Him to place the faith in us.

The arguments regarding literacy of translation IMHO are moot when one considers the enabling ministry of the Holy SPirit in us when we study Scripture through faith in Him. Let Him do all the work of edifying our spirit and soul and heart, rather than attempting to counterfeit His work by our own soulish perspectives.

Even the classic temple chumash, The Pentatuch and Haftorahs by the late Rabbi JH Hertz references The King James version as a source in his translation from the original Hebrew.
