CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
Is 'KJV Only" a denominational issue?

Isn't it wonderful that we all have opinions???? I guess you know that I have never been wrong before!!!!
My "opinion" is still that Christians who are serious about the Bible tend to gravitate toward a single version, which results in the tendency to identify versions that differ from their self-chosen norm as “bad.”
In reality, Christians have been blessed with a wide variety of fine versions. When used together and compared to one another, with an understanding of the basic issues in Bible translation, they can greatly enhance one’s Bible study experience.
Precisely. Add to that the vast array of online biblical resources and we are the most blessed Christians indeed!

Using "Bible Hub" with its good number of parallel versions for comparison is great to get a good overall view of what a verse or passage of Scripture is saying.Isn't it wonderful that we all have opinions???? I guess you know that I have never been wrong before!!!!

since the Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek were in existence, Jerome wrote the first Old and New Testament in a language known as Latin Vulgate. so essentially, Latin Vulgate in the Fourth Human Language associated to the Word of God. that was around the 5th Century, 1,100 years later, English, German, and French translated the Latin Vulgate into their own Languages.
so the KJV is basically a 5th Language translation...
read the Aramaic and only certain portions of the Greek if you want what Yeshua actually said
