So can you be respectful and not trash other versions of scripture just because you don't happen to like them?
I promise I won't "trash other versions of scripture just because I don't like them."

How's that?

Acceptable, and proof you are capable of taking the high road sometimes ;)
Sarah ... please read what I wrote a little more slowly.

Will you, please?

I believe he is hinting at trashing the other versions for other reasons not mentioned.

Which I am fine with, if he can give valid reasons to judge something I am cool with that, just don't disregard crap because you happen not to like it.

The KJB is the only Bible for our time.

The other six had their targets as well.


So, are you also saying that all of the KJV, including the Old Testament, is applicable to modern day?

Also, isn't the reason you say science is flawed is because it depends on new information? The only way for the bible not to be flawed, according to your own reasoning, is if the KJV were the only version to ever have existed.

Yes.

And before you respond, know and understand that many things that happened in the Old Testament should stay in the Old Testament, but was written ...

Romans 15:4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

Knowing dispensation theology, covenant theology, or testament theology helps.

This thread is a prime example of the feature on FSTDT.
Is that the site that makes fun of those who believe that Jesus walked on water, there was a global flood, virgin birth, resurrection, Earth created in six solar days, etc.?

Okay with you then, if I stake a claim to Jacobean English?

I don't see why, especially if you're going to use that claim to back an argument that other translations are Satanic.

Moses translated the first 25 chapters from English to Hebrew.

English didn't exist when Moses was alive.

No, that is the site that makes fun of EXTREMELY unusual beliefs. The have a great deal of material that covers quotes that are off off Broadway. Stuff that only a very small handful of people believe.

Jesus and the holy Bible are mainstream. They are understood and respected. Most of the quotes there are not biblical, but extreme extractions or additions to mainstream interpretation of reality (including the Bible).

It is kind of like that show, kids say the darnest things.

Some of the things written just don't seem to make sense. Make one wonder where the person learned that..
