Why have the KJV Purists Hid this Information?

[tv1a]

I need to clarify it is an accredited christian based college. Their degrees transfer to other schools.

I didn't think mentioning the college was a faith based college had any significance to the post.

Here is a very good article on bible history.

Did you forget that if it doesn't have "apostolic" in the title, then it don't got no truth, boy?

So what are you attempting to say? That the KJV is incorrect? That God is not powerful enough have the KJV turn out how He desires? That the Gospel isn't what we have been taught? What is your point?

Just wondering.........

I have read studies on the difference in the different revisions and in my opinion the differences are minor and have not significantly impacted the whole. Some theologians try to make them larger than they really are. Having said that, anyone who believes that the KJV is totally and completely inerrant is either ignorant or intellectually dishonest. I believe God has preserved His word over the centuries, and sincere and honest seekers of truth will find in the scriptures a inerrant revelation of God.

Many would be horrified to learn that King James was homosexual and is buried in Westminster Abbey with a male lover on each side of him.

God will use whoever and whatever He chooses to accomplish His purpose. God knows how to reveal His word and His will to us and He has done so, for the true seeker there are more translations and versions than ever and with the internet endless research is possible. Of course, first one needs a personal relationship with the author. JMHO

It may not have apostolic in the title, but it does have an accredited bachelor's program. lol

Could not God do the same with other translations?

Actually the point is the KJV as we know it is different from the original. The KJV purists have no more credibility or no less credibility than most of the other versions.

BTW, most experts pros and cons agree the KJV plagerized other translations... Even then to say the KJV came straight from the mouth of God is a bit of the stretch...tv

There is a pretty good article on the KJV at:
http://www.bible.ca/b-kjv-only.htm
This is not presented to malign the KJV. The folks who have published the site have the following to say about the KJV:

"...Foremost, we feel that the KJV is an EXCELLENT translation, but not the ONLY excellent translation.
2. In over 90 percent of the New Testament, readings are identical word-for-word, regardless of the family. Of the remaining ten percent, MOST of the differences between the texts are fairly irrelevant, such as calling the Lord "Christ Jesus" instead of "Jesus Christ," or putting the word "the" before a noun. Less than two percent would significantly alter the meaning of a passage, and NONE of them would contradict or alter any of the basic points of Christian doctrine. What we have, then, is a dispute concerning less than one-half of one percent of the Bible. The other 99.5% we all agree on! ..."
