I hope I made it clear that my position is not in agreement with yours, and to the point that abandoning the Traditional texts in Hebrew and Greek, as well as departing from the literal equivalency of translation, is leading the Christian churches into greater errors than they think and to which they are now blind.

Out of a hundred translations, which is utterly reliable? In Engllsh, the King James is still the top. The rest diminish the divinity of Jesus, and degrade the standards of their proponents, as well as those of their users.

As you can see.

It is overly simplistic to attribute errors in the Church to lack of a single, reliable English translation. It is also overly combative to insist that you alone hold to the most reliable English translation of Sacred Scripture. If your point is to correct and admonish you would do well to adopt a more conciliatory tone, and to address something of greater consequence. How does the KJV translate, “Knowledge puffs up. Love builds up?”
