God requests a childlike faith in HIM, that all things are possible through Jesus Christ. NOT a childlike faith in the KING JAMES VERSION Bible (which didn’t exist in Jesus’s time because it was still being written).

Alright. I get what you're insinuating. However, minus the "King's English" the TKJ version might be one of the more accuratley translated accounts we have.

What about the original version? Would you still not believe in the storied account of Genesis from the Hebrew or Greek Torah? I beleive Jesus most likely quoted from the Septuagint.

Let me make a serious point here. In all the versions of the bible, I think there is less than 2% error in copying, and those mistakes are minor misspellings, typos, and general word misusage. Trivial mistakes that do not take away from the main context of the message or the original copy. You will not find another book in the history of the world that has so many copies and has been so correctly translated or copied intact!

In even my limited years of studying the book, I will tell you the minute I start to not take the stories literally I find is the bane of misguided thought and direction toward The Truth. (Define "The Truth")
