    Since these two bibles are an updated 1611KJV are they considered perfect by the KJVO Camp?

    Now keep in mind that the AV1611 was revised and corrected several times. Most KJVOist today use a 1769 KJV.

    http://www.kj21.com/

    http://www.tmbible.com/

    The KJ21 does not update and correct 2 Peter 1:1

    2 Peter 1,"Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Savior Jesus Christ" KJ21

    or Acts 5:30 is not corrected:

    Acts 5:30,"The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree." KJ21

    Can a KJVOist use a KJ21 or TMB in the KJVO Camp and be accepted?

    Can the KJ21 or TMB replace the 1769 KJV? If not then explain to me why with examples.

    If the KJ21 and TMB are not good then please tell me why with examples.

    No spin please. Just answer the questions with facts and not opinions.

    From what I'm told by many of my IFB preacher friends, they do not condone using anything other than the KJV. This would include the KJ21 and the TMB.

    Get used to the silence. They usually crawl back into the woodwork when they see a tough question that questions thier false doctrines.

    Many claim to be TR only - that the Textus Receptus is the best, most accurate rerflection of the originals. I have no problem with that.

    But IF that is the position, then they should readily accept the AV1611, all revisions of that including the 1762, 1769, 1883 and now the NKJV + the KJ21 and TMB.

    Or admit that they are MORE than "TR only" and truly believe the KJV (whichever revision they choose) is the only correct translation. That I have a problem with!

    Amen!
    And the NKJV as well, which DOES follow the TR.

    INCOMING?

    This topic is truly an eyesore for the KJVO Camp. This is not the first time I have asked this question. I have yet to have any KJVO give me a real answer with examples.

    The issue of the KJ21 and TMB proves that most KJVOist are nothing but 1769KJVOist. All the spin about the TR being so good is nothing but a lie coming from the KJVO Camp.

    I guess Ex Cathreda did fall upon Blayney in 1769! YIKES!!!!!!!!

    Oh Ya! Well do they have any good study Bibles in those versions? My input since no KJVO's will give any input.

    KJVOist will not touch the KJ21 and TMB issue with a 10 foot pole. The KJ21 and TMB shows true KJVO double standards!

    I am doing a thorough research on the KJ21 at this time. On the surface it appears to be a valid updating of the AV 1611. I am not ready yet to support it carte blanche, but I do like the following features contained in this version:

    I've read excerpts from both, and I could probably use either.

    Pastor Bob: "...the KJ21 ... On the surface it appears to be a valid updating of the AV 1611. I am not ready yet to support it carte blanche, but I do like the following features contained in this version..."

    Question: is there anything in this KJ21 that is superior to the updating of most of the archaisms (while leaving thou and thee etc. intact) that appeared in the New Scofield KJV published in 1967, except for the benefit [​IMG] of not having the Scofield notes?

    Since we have the Bible God has blessed, why would we want to change to anything else?

    We believe that the KJV is THE Bible for the English-speaking people, period, end of story!

    No one debates the usefulness, and the way God has blessed the KJV:kjb. God blessed the Geneva before that, and now He is blessing the ESV (albiet it's still new), the NKJV, the NIV...

    My wife works at a large Christian bookstore. Thus far there has not been anyone even inquire about the ESV, let alone buy one.

    I have asked several pastors, most of which are not KJVO, about the ESV. Thus far, not one of them has even heard about this translation.

    I would not count on the ESV being more than a passing fad among those who cannot decide what Bible to use.

    It happens. The new Bible translation that is coming out late october in my country will probably be here to stay, a revision of another Bibletranslation they are working on at the moment may very well turn out to be passing fad.

    Obviously not everyone agrees.

    For one thing.

    The NT when originally given was in a lingua Franca of it's day called koine Greek.

    This language was in a form contemporary to it's day. A simplified form of Attic Greek.

    It was translated into other of the functional koine languages of it's day (Itala, Peshitto).

    The 1611 English of the Elizabethan-Jacobean period is not 21st century koine or "Standard" English.
