You follow your translators and I will follow mine. John Burgon wrote his book The Revision Revised in 1883, critiquing Westcott's 1881 Revised Version. Westcott and his horde of Bible translation critics despised Burgon for his opposition, but not one supporter of the 1881 Revised Version...

Who would you recommend to teach students the Greek language, someone who shares KJVO beliefs or someone who believes the Bible is full of errors?

I do think the personal biases and individual theological beliefs of Bible translators have contributed to the corruption of tainted translations. For example, ancient Christians were divided over the issue of infant baptism. Does it matter to God whether babies are baptized as infants without...

I take that as a glowing commendation of the KJV in that the translated word of God has not been corrupted since the original autographs were written.

The originals are no longer with us. That means the opponents of the KJV cannot prove the Alexandrian texts are superior to the Textus Receptus.

I don't know how you came into possession of those opinions, but I do find this explanation informative and persuasive: WHY IS THE KING JAMES VERSION CALLED THE "AUTHORIZED VERSION" - SafeGuardYourSoul WHY IS THE KING JAMES VERSION CALLED THE “AUTHORIZED VERSION” Excerpt from “Answers To...

But the book of Acts chapter 8 in the NIV does not have the same number of verses as does the KJV. I don't want a Bible version that simply takes verses out of the Bible whenever they feel like it.

The last 12 verses of Mark that you claimed Satan tried to eliminate were said in the NKJV margin to not have been in the original manuscripts.

Democrats file false charges against their opponents like street thugs file false charges against innocent cops. But when it comes time for a trial the false accusers drop the charges they know are false.

I don't want footnotes in my Bible explaining why the original manuscripts do not say what my Bible says. For those who like to sort through conflicting manuscripts in determining what God intended to say, they are welcome to help themselves. I believe the KJV is all I need. Several NKJV...

Don't be stupidly ridiculous. I never said anything like that.

Lazarus was resurrected after he died and Jesus said he was dead.

Should Mark 16:9-20 be included in the English Bible? It is included in the KJV so I say yes. The NKJV is unclear on the issue since it includes the verses but then says those verses were not in the original manuscripts of the Bible. So the NKJV leaves the question of the verses' legitimacy...

John 11:14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead. Are sickness and death the result of God's judgment against sin in every case? Hardly. John 9:1-3 King James Version 9 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth. 2 And his disciples asked him, saying...

You suggest nobody but I appreciate the fact that the KJV translators included the name of Christ in every chapter heading in the book of the Song of Solomon, as well as in numerous other chapters in the Bible. Other translations do not do that. If other people like their version and if they...

Jesus focused on jots and tittles, claiming not one will fail till all be fulfilled. I do not agree that the Bible is just a book of general ideas God communicates to men in various forms and words that all mean the same thing.

In its marginal notes, the NKJV provides multiple examples of manuscript variations. The problem with that is the reader is given no clue as to what God really did say and what God really did not say.

I'll share the above post with you as well. Westcott's revised Greek text that has influenced so many modern versions does not contain the last 12 verses of Mark's gospel. I consider that mistake to be unacceptable. For amateur Bible scholars, the NKJV provides notes in Mark 16:9 to help them...

Christians on every point do tend to offer reasons for their choices. I did read this: https://cdn.ymaws.com/www.tbsbibles.org/resource/collection/D4DCAF37-AEB6-4CEC-880F-FD229A90560F/What-Todays-Christian-Needs-to- Know-about-the-NKJV.pdf Additions Without Italics As mentioned earlier...

Westcott's revised Greek text that has influenced so many modern versions does not contain the last 12 verses of Mark's gospel. I consider that mistake to be unacceptable. For amateur Bible scholars, the NKJV provides notes in Mark 16:9 to help them settle on exactly what God said as opposed...
