    Yet another commonly repeated KJVOism hypocrisy: In order to understand scripture, you must be expected to understand the context of the KJV's Elizabethan Middle English. But it's not reasonable to expect people to understand the context of the Hebrew/Greek.

    I would say in order to understand English you should attend elementary school at least till the fifth grade. I think i did that. :)

    Oh? I expect most already understand the KJV while you expect others to jump through the hoops of intellectual reasoning in your school of thought to know what the Bible says.:laugh:

    Classic!

    Most already understand the NIV, NASB, and NKJV, but you expect others to jump through KJVO hoops of reasoning, where intellect is absent.

    Yet HG would have us believe that a fifth grader can read the KJV, but not any other English translation. Yet he himself has demonstrated an ability to understand the English of the KJV.

    Closed again.

    Why must members respond to provocation?
