"except for the fact that they use standard editions of the Bible .... often the KJ version as Holy scripture and authoritative reference"

Not technically true.

They usually carry the KJV when evangelizing, but if you get into details, they will invariably declare the portion that you quote to be incorrect.

There is a phrase in Mormonism 'as far as it is translated correctly' which LDS will occasionally admit to in their beliefs regarding the King James Bible. Having spent time reading the Joseph Smith so called 'translation' of the King James Bible (written in king james english, btw), I am amused that his fabrications from whole cloth are considered a 'better translation' ... he neither read nor comprehended Greek, Aramaic, or Hebrew so his 'translation' into King James English is pure fantasy and THAT is what is referred to stealthily as 'a better translation' by the deceivers pushing Mormonism and denigrating the Bible as not trustworthy 'because it is not translated correctly'.

If you would like links to the Smith 'translation' of the king james Bible, or a computer copy to peruse, let me know. I can also post the additions he made to Genesis 50 in order to fabricate a retroactive prophecy of his 'coming in these latter days' if you're interested in such deceit by Mormonism.

That is a totally a distortion of article 8 we study all 4 of the standard works and rotate each year this year is the Bible

Articles of Faith
8 We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God
