    Now stop that. You know that it's against the rules to confuse Pilgrim's flawed theology...

    Ah yes, I do apologize, I forgot for a moment that I was posting in the hyper-sensitive, censoring, nanny forum, were personal opinions are disallowed. :tonofbricks:

    Good-bye, have a nice day, I'll mosey on along so as not to hurt anyone's feelings, that would be a terrible thing to do.

    So whats the conspiracy of the day here today???

    Was it Jesuits?

    Satanists?

    or Satan worshiping Jesuits?

    Or was it all Wescott & Horts fault?

    As usual a certain person has started a thread with strange theories that are basically so delusional a 2nd grader could see right through it.

    The topic is so ridiculous it doesn't even deserve an intelligent response. Sorry if anyone is offended by this but I just get so sick of reading junk like this.

    You've noticed that too?

    I addressed a behaviorial pattern one would think would be applauded here and got ATTACKED and even asked to leave!:laugh:

    I suppose stating the NWT is a corrupt version will be "overlooked" but dare NOT to use that language if speaking about any other version!:laugh:

    I'll start a thread on the thought,"What's the best way to defeat your enemy?"

    The NWT has a heretical Christology, the MV's you hate do not.

    Be intellectually honest, for once.

    That's right. The Lord does not appreciate your denigration of His Word H.G.

    You have an imposible task before you to demonstrate that leitimate modern versions teach the same heresies as the NWT. Being dishonest in order to further your cause is a sinful tactic.

    Insults is that all you can do?

    Show me what you think is so flawed?

    Oh is it that I will not compromise nor am I a modern day liberal?

    Yeah right.

    Haven't there been several revisions of the King James Bible since 1611?


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    ANSWER: No. There have been several editions but no revisions.
    EXPLANATION: One of the last ditch defenses of a badly shaken critic of the Authorized version 1611 is the "revision hoax." They run to this seeming fortress in an attempt to stave off ultimate defeat by their opponents who overwhelm their feeble arguments with historic facts, manuscript evidence and to obvious workings of the Holy Spirit. Once inside, they turn self-confidently to their foes and ask with a smug look, "Which King James do you use, the 1611 or the 1629 or perhaps the 1769?" The shock of this attack and the momentary confusion that results usually allows them time to make good their escape.

    Unfortunately, upon entering their castle and closing the door behind them they find that their fortress has been systematically torn down, brick by brick, by a man named Dr. David F. Reagan.

    Dr. Reagan pastors the Antioch Baptist Church in Knoxville, Tennessee. He has written a devastating expose on the early editions of the King James Bible entitled, "The King James Version of 1611--the Myth of Early Revisions."

    Dr. Reagan has done an excellent job of destroying the last stronghold of Bible critics. I see neither a way, nor a reason to try to improve on his finding. So I have secured his permission to reproduce his pamphlet in its entirety:

    Go here if you want to see your revision theory is a myth.

    Attacking the word of God is flawed in and of itself.

    Personally, that would seem more "liberal" to me than most other things.

    Don't forget it is the board where people who mean 'where' and type 'were' are mocked :-(

    But it is still the best Baptist Board (BB) that I've got :godisgood:

    Aw, shucks, I never was much good a spelling, always my worst subject. Spell check is awesome, but doesn't help me in those situations. Oh wait, maybe I should not have used the word shucks, I think that has offended others in another forum. :laugh:

    And yes you are right, all in all, its a pretty good board. In fact it would be close to perfect, except for the members. ;)

    Quoting a pro-1611 site does nothing for the credibility of that statement. Call them editions or revisions, it just doesn't matter. The KV has been updated many times since it was translated... just as the men who translated it meant for it to be. The only languages that remain static are dead languages and the translators knew this. They also expected for there to be newer translation to come along... not for the one they did to be made into something other than a translation of God's word

    What changes in the KJV were made because of changes in the English language?

    I see you haven't left.

    God's Word is not found only within the pages of various incarnations of the KJV. His Word is not bound by an obsolete text of four centuries ago.

    Many modern versions in English as well as many foreign languages are indeed the Word of God.

    Everytime you denigrate God's Word you are piling up condemnation for yourself.

    Cannot envision why a Baptist would call a man-made, Anglican translation of God's inspired and preserved Greek and Hebrew "God's Word".

    "God's Word" was breathed by God. It was perfect, without a single error. The Anglican Version was made by revising other translation by 45 baby-baptizing English Catholics, none of whom would be welcome in any Baptist church.

    To equate the AV with "God's Word" shows a callous disregard for God's Word, for history, for grammar, and actually ATTACKS with spiteful hate the very inspired words that God breathed.

    Who would be so foolish?
