Re: What version and Bible do you use, Why?
I use whichever version seems to line up best with what I believe!

LOL, That is like the guy who said he would quote the Greek if it supported what he wanted it to say. If not he could always go to other versions, marginal renderings, websters or commentary. I actually heard a preacher say he went to websters but could not find what he wanted, then went to an unabridged dictionary down to the 6th definition. He was looking up the word "fear" and finally liked "run from in stark terror."

Re: What version and Bible do you use, Why?
I mostly read The KJV,but I really like The NKJV because it is similar to the KJV,but easier to understand in places.
I also use the ESV,AMP.NASB,NIV but I really stick with the KJV,and NKJV.

Re: What version and Bible do you use, Why?
NASB is very literal,but it uses a different text that The KJV,NKJV I understand it's based on The Alexandria text I use one too though.
I've about wore out mine put out by The Lockman Foundation.

Re: What version and Bible do you use, Why?
KJV. I love it, though I wish I had one with a concordance. Bibles are so expensive. I really can't figure that out.
