    Me too Roby.

    This one ("bishop") is particularly troublesome for the radical KJVO who are Baptist. If they are "purists", they cannot go to the Greek because the English is superior. However the KJV English flies in the face of the Baptist distinctive of two offices only - pastor and deacon.

    But you are certainly a GRADE A, Type #1 turnip :thumbs:

    Oops, my bad - the word 'turnip' appears neither in
    the KJV1611 Edition nor the more used KJV1769 Edition.
    Therefore it is untopical to speak of 'turnip'.:(

    Therefore we can only assume that
    in the KJV(s) Bishop = Pastor.

    If we choose to define Bishop = Pastor OR Deacon, then
    You will begin referring to me as 'Brother Bishop Ed'
    or 'Bishop Brother Ed' or 'Bishop Ed for short' :applause:

    I know

    My poor deluded soul needed a Savior and He came looking for me! Nothing in my hand I bring but Simply to the Cross I cling! I am what I am By the Grace of God! If it were not for God writting the AV 1611 we all would be Speaking French(Waterloo),thank God for prayer. :flower:

    I'm sure glad we don't speak French, if we did I wouldn't be able to read my NIV.

    Thank God for the NIV! :thumbs:

    Well, there's a big part of the problem.

    God used men way back when to pen the Scriptures. Other men (scribes) copied these Scriptures for centuries. Many other men translated the words into other languages. Then in the beginning of the 17th century, a translation was sponsered by the English crown and was compiled/translated by another group of men.

    God is the author of Scripture, but He didn't take up a pen and personally transcribe the 1611. If He had, there wouldn't have been any need for all the revisions/editions it has gone through.

    But the sad part is that the KJVO myth spins this yarn exactly as William put it...

    More myth, Will! You just don't get it, do you? Your statement only adds more error to the KJVO myth.

    BTW, did you decide to stick around even though we call a myth a myth here at BB? I thought you weren't going to stand for the truth being told. With all the KJVO myth and error you spread, you're about as far from truth as east is from west.

    The first parta yer post applies to all Christians here, but the second part is pure conjecture. The AV, which was over 200 years old when the battle of Waterloo occurred, has nothing to do with the outcome of the battle. And England was in no great peril then. The sea battle of Trafalgar was much more important for the future of England. Though Napoleon continued to have a formidable land army, he had no way to get them to England after the battle of Trafalgar. And the AV had nothing to do with that battle, either.

    Well I sure Hope so!

    I am glad that my sins are as far as the East is from the West! I never said I wasnt going to stand for the truth beeing told, I said I wasn't going to stand for Lies beeig told. It is that Idiotic Phrase that really gets the truth to be told! Because there really isn't such a thing(KJVO Myth) but only in your mind! The fact is that the KJB is the Word and No one will deny that but on the other hand? Lets face it the only error here is trying to have your cake and eat too! Like Roby said "Pick ONE" and I have! No one Here will dispute wether or not the KJB is the Word but Many will dispute the opposite.Now then, whats your Question?:smilewinkgrin:

    what part is that?

    Now as far as the Battle of Waterloo and the "Bound to words used in the 1611" the Irony is that the battle took place in a thick Fog and the message was relayed but only half was understood due to the fog! the Message was that Wellington defeated.... and a thick fog set in for 6 hours and the flag man finally got thru "Wellington defeated Napoleon" Alot of us are still waiting for that last transmission from the Lord But as I see It he gave us His Word and We Know that Jesus defeated Satan thanks to the AV 1611! And I am sure they Had a Copy of it then Thanks and God Bless. Next! :tongue3:

    God didn't write the AV 1611. It was a translation made by scholarly men. Nothing more, nothing less.

    It was more of a revision than a translation I think .

    William : Have you taken a look at my thread on archaic words in the KJV ? I seriously doubt that you could hazard a guess as to the meaning of many of those phrases without looking at a modern rendering .

    No one here has denied that, Will. No one at all.

    So, not only was it good enough for Paul, but Jesus was in on it, too?

    Edit: Just noticed the moniker under Will's name. I guess he won't read that then, huh?

    Well he could still read it , but not as a member . Maybe he will just take a well-deserved break from his articulate meanderings . Perhaps he can return in the future with good behavior . Can anyone take his unique place on the BB now ?

    Mr. Correa, you didn't say that you weren't going to stand for lies being told any more than I said East and West are one and the same. Get your story straight, will you?

    Are you going to deny you said you would not stand for the use of the term "KJVO myth?" Will, your entire KJVO stance is based on nothing but error and conjecture. The KJVO stance you support is nothing but myth. It is a myth and we here at BB will continue to call it a myth. Remember, "a rose by any other name is still a rose." Calling the KJVO stance you support a myth is definitely not an attack on the word of God - it is an attack on the errors and the ignorance that make up the KJVO myth. So no matter how you want to white-wash it, your KJVO stance is pure myth. There is no sciptural support for it, and it is based on the "knowledge" of men rather than on the knowledge of the word.

    Now what is it you were saying?...
