Who gave them the authority to OMIT ?

Timotheus, The compiler for the Greek NT, upon which the KJV was based upon was the Liberal Humanist Roman Catholic Priest Erasmus. It seems like your sect teachers forgot to tell that truth.

 

Uh, the LXX is Old Testament and the TR is New Testament, so your question is meaningless!

 

KJVO Double Standard #239:

1. When Erasmus edits the source
of the proto-KJV - it is O.K.
2. When Westcott & Hort edit the source
after the "received text" - they
commit a sin.

KJVO Double Standard #240:
1. When Anglicans translate the KJV -
this is O.K.
2. When Anglican meddle with the source -
they commit a sin.

 

Orville, that's good preaching, if I do say so myself!

 

Nobody had to because they didn't. Even Westcott and Hort admit that Erasmus did not do any "modern scientific textual criticism" but merely passed along the commonly received text. The KJV is based on that commonly received text. It was the exclusive Greek text from about the 6th century through the 18th century.

 

Pride!! Most hate the idea of admitting they are wrong.......

 

Bro. Tim L. Bynum: " ... you just don`t want a final authority
in your life or your church, so you can decide what`s biblical for you."

So, I desided that in 2004 I'd use the
King James Version, 1769 Edition (KJV1769).
How about that, same conclusion you had,
totally different reason.

 

Pride!! Most hate the idea of admitting they are wrong....... </font>[/QUOTE]Pot calling the kettle black. It would be interesting to see how many have left the MV position to become KJVO, and how many myriads have left the KJVO ( Nehushtan Pickled Version Sect) to accept MV's. Thankfully, the former sect members let go of their pride.

 

Tim B- where did the Anglican translators, authorized by the Baptist hating king get their Final Authority before 1611?

 

So Bro Tim Bynum says the LIBERALS know it all!

Well that's a shame. Really it is. But the average liberal isn't afraid to read something that might be a little different than he/she was taught. Too many "conservatives" are way too proud of being ignorant of facts. That's not all conservatives thankfully - just some.

 

I call it waking up from a sleep. Most KJVO's are when it comes to facts.

 

To the contrary, the devil's oldest trick that we know of is adding, not omitting. He asked Eve if God said they must not eat from ANY of the trees in the garden, which is MORE than what God had said.

Now, getting to the ground on this thing, I take it you must accept Mark 16:9-20 as scripture because your KJV has it. So-- do you speak with 'tongues?' do you drink poison? do you pick up serpents? If you don't, according to this passage you are not among "them that believe" since those are the signs of that particular group. If you say this is outdated and you can nullify it, you are doing what you accuse advocates of modern translations of doing.

 

There seems to be a lot of that going around!

That is a distinct possibility!

There are presently 4 Greek manuscripts containing the comma. They are a 16th century ms (#61), a 12th century ms (#88) which has the comma written in the margin by a corrector's hand, a 15th century ms (#629), and an 11th century ms which again has the comma written in the margin by a corrector's hand.
