Oh, really... And I suppose that they're the bits specifically carrying the message that saves us, right? That those verses, and no others, let us know that Christ is the key to our salvation? Is that it? Or do they perhaps just repeat the previous verse, or does the following verse repeat that? And I suppose that every single one of these "removals" does not put these verses in as footnotes.

There are those who forgets the author (the Holy Spirit). The bottom line is what the Bible says (The Holy Spirit is the Author/Inspired) regardless the translations. The BEST Evangelist is the Holy Spirit through Jesus Christ and as I talk, the Holy Spirit will work in a person's heart to be convicted. 1 Thessalonians 1:5 "because our gospel came to you not simply with words, but also with power, with the Holy Spirit and with deep conviction. You know how we lived among you for your sake." John 6:29 Jesus answered, "The work of God is this: to believe in the one He has sent." Romans 10:9-10 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.

I serve while the Holy Spirit does the REAL work. :thumbsup:

Here is all of Ecclesiastes 8:17 in the 1611 edition of the KJV.

Eccl. 8:17 Then I behelde all the worke of God, that a man cannot finde out the worke that is done vder the Sunne: because though a man labour to seeke it out, yea further though a wise man thinke to know it, yet shall hee not be able to finde it.

Is your present KJV edition exactly the same except "type and grammar errors?"

Funny thing, that verse is not only present in the other translations I'm looking at, the entire point is carried across in the other translations as well.
