    There is a huge difference between updating language and changing the Hebrew and Greek texts behind a translation and producing a new translation from new texts.

    This is what happened in 1881, when the R.V. was translated it was just suppose to be an update of the KJV.. at least that was what they were originally appointed to do, but Wescott and Hort slowly subverted the translation committee from the inside out and they completely overthrew the Greek text behind the KJV, this was not what they were originally commissioned to do. This is where you modern bible versions come from, they all build on this original Wescott and Hort text. The issue is the original language texts that are behind modern translations.

    It's really a straw man to portray those of us who use the KJV to just be against change or anything new.

    Seriously.

    A not so gentle reminder, this is not the Versions/Translations forum.

    With less than fifty churches, please see:

    Free Presbyterian Church of North America

    I doubt the neighboring Presbyterian church belongs to that denomination. I assume the Orthodox Presby. and the Bible Presby. while conservative if not fundamental in doctrine are pedobaptist in polity.

    I give up. It's like trying to have a logical conversation about a specific topic with a room full of pre-teen girls who are eating sugar cookies and mad at their mom. It's just not worth it.

    Sorry to read this. Yes, this thread has drifted such is the nature of Baptist Board. However, it hasn't drifted too far off. It hasn't gone through the ditch and into the cornfield yet.
