None of the bibles are perfect. That is why people need to study more than one source.I believe we will see a powerful movement to discredit the Bible.
A test of any version is to go back to the original Hebrew and Greek and determine which version gives the most accurate translation to English.
I run the Hebrew and Greek all the time with the KJV and I have seen no serious mistakes at all. I have with several others.

I put names and dates in my post and you say: "Where is your sources." I quote notable works and you say: "I do not like your sources." According to you I am 100% wrong 100% of the time. Stop being a pest.

It was against Catholic law for the common people to have a bible or a historical record. Bible possession once banned by the Catholic Church!
Names and dates are meaningless without direct quotes and at least the title of a written source. If you were charged with a crime and in court the only evidence against you was an article from Wiki, would you think that was good evidence? Or somebody saying "this other guy Joe White saw him do it on Aug 1." that's a name and a date. Would you think that was good evidence or would you ask for, rather demand that original documents or direct trestimony from any witnesses be presented?

Your source does not say that possession of a Bible was prohibited. It says that possession of translations of the Bible in French or the Romance lanuages was forbidden. William Tyndale was executed in 1536 for translating the Bible into English.
From the , Online Etymology Dictionary .
J The letter is a late modification of Roman -i-, originally a scribal creation in continental Medieval Latin to distinguish small -i- in cursive writing from the strokes of other letters, especially in the final positions of words. But in English, -y- was used for this, and -j- was introduced c.1600-1640 to take up the consonantal sound that had evolved from -i- since Late Latin times. This usage first was attested in Spanish, where it was in place before 1600. English dictionaries continued to lump together words beginning in -i- and -j- until 19c., and -j- formerly was skipped when letters were used to express serial order.
Used in modern writing to represent Latin -i- before a, e, o, u in the same syllable, which in Latin was sounded as the consonant in Modern English you, yam, etc., but the custom is controversial among Latinists:The character J, j, which represents the letter sound in some school-books, is an invention of the seventeenth century, and is not found in MSS., nor in the best texts of the Latin authors.

THE COUNCIL OF TARRAGONA - 1234 A.D.
The Council of Tarragona of 1234, in its second canon, ruled that:
"No one may possess the books of the Old and New Testaments in the Romance language, and if anyone possesses them he must turn them over to the local bishop within eight days after promulgation of this decree, so that they may be burned lest, be he a cleric or a layman, he be suspected until he is cleared of all suspicion."

Amos 8:12
People will stagger from sea to sea and wander from north to east, searching for the word of the Lord, but they will not find it.
In German the letter J is pronounced as a Y.
I would think this passage is more appropriate:The prophecy of Amos 8:12 is future. Already very few preachers preach the truth of the Word but Smooth things to please itching ears!
The days Amos speaks of is not far in the future. Even now the only safe teacher of His Word is,.Joh 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come
Our God's name Is represented by four Hebrew characters that is transliterated to YHWH in English. Known then as the Tetragrammaton.
Why harp on this subject here in this thread, what non Trinitarians believe?
All scholars are still fighting about it and never will their be agreeing, this has been going on for most of the years of man.
Comments by scholars.
Historical proofs as to the way the trinitarian doctrine effected the pure doctrine of the disciples.
The International Standard Bible Encyclopedia, Vol. 4, page 2637,
Under "Baptism," says: "Matthew 28:19 in particular only canonizes a later ecclesiastical situation, that its universalism is contrary to the facts of early Christian history, and its Trinitarian formula is foreign to the mouth of Jesus."
Sacraments - International Standard Bible Encyclopedia(1) In regard to Baptism it has been argued that as Mr 16:15 f occurs in a passage (Mr 16:9-20) which textual criticism has shown to have formed no part of the original Gospel, Mt 28:19, standing by itself, is too slender a foundation to support the belief that the ordinance rests upon an injunction of Jesus, more especially as its statements are inconsistent with the results of historical criticism. These results, it is affirmed, prove that all the narratives of the Forty Days are legendary, that Mt 28:19 in particular only canonizes a later ecclesiastical situation, that its universalism is contrary to the facts of early Christian history, and its Trinitarian formula "foreign to the mouth of Jesus" (see Harnack, History of Dogma, I, 79, and the references there given). It is evident, however, that some of these objections rest upon anti-supernatural pre-suppositions that really beg the question at issue, and others on conclusions for which real premises are wanting. Over against them all we have to set the positive and weighty fact that from the earliest days of Christianity Baptism appears as the rite of initiation into the fellowship of the church (Ac 2:38,41, et passim), and that even Paul, with all his freedom of thought and spiritual interpretation of the gospel, never questioned its necessity (compare Ro 6:3 ff; 1Co 12:13; Eph 4:5). On any other supposition than that of its appointment by our Lord Himself it is difficult to conceive how within the brief space of years between the death of Jesus and the apostle's earliest references to the subject, the ordinance should not only have originated but have established itself in so absolute a manner for Jewish and Gentile Christians alike.
God's personal name, the only name given by Him, is Yahwah; also spelled Yahuah. There is no vowel in between His first and last name. His name means: Life Began, or, Life's Beginning. His name backwards means: Foundation of Life. That is one reason He is called the "Rock." God is the Foundation Rock, and Christ is the Capstone.
