WHY KJVO?
Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever. (Psalm 12:7).- It is the only one that is a translation, all others are paraphrases
- God invented all languages
(Genesis 11:7)
Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech. - God knows how to translate, and did so in Scripture-Moses spoke to Pharaoh, in Chaldean, and it was translated
And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye, serve the LORD; only let your flocks and your herds be stayed: let your little ones also go with you. - If God inspired it and lost it, what does that say about our salvation? Can He lose you?
For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.
And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. - God said He would preserve it forever perfectly
The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: because the spirit of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass. The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever. - It has ALWAYS been in books, always will be in a book, and we will be judged by a book, not scrolls, rolls, parchment or manuscripts
This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;
And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. - There have always, since the Garden, been two "words of God", the real and the close imposter. God does not have "versions",
or "paraphrases" only Eve, the serpent and the Corinthians did
(Genesis 3:1)
Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ. - This continues to today
- God always told mankind not to tamper with His Word
Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. - Only one was authorized by a King
- God never said that the New Testament Scriptures would be in Greek to the Old Testament believers, yet here it is, in Greek. Did the apostles edit the mss and make "New Versions" of the Old Testament? I trow not
- Only one was done by experts who knew the languages well
- Only one is not copyrighted, and never will be, as God commanded us to publish it, not merchandi$e it
The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it. - Greeks no longer speak Koine Greek no do Jews speak Old Testament Hebrew
- You cannot get a copyright unless you alter the text a certain percent
- The newer "versions" contain all sorts of errors, doctrinal, geographical, historical, cover to cover, not to mention blatant heresies
- God never really dealt much with "originals", only copies-of copies-of copies
And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four leaves, he cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was on the hearth, until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was on the hearth.
Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hath burned.
Then took Jeremiah another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah; who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire: and there were added besides unto them many like words. (Jeremiah 45-51)
And it shall be, when thou hast made an end of reading this book, that thou shalt bind a stone to it, and cast it into the midst of Euphrates: - The newer "versions" are made from completely different materials, often from Alexandria, Egypt-a place God told the Jews never to return to
And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God led them not through the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said, Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, and they return to Egypt: - God's Word is either 100% Holy or it is evil, deceitful
- The Scriptures claim to be the Words of a Holy God, not of men, hundreds of times
After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward. - God magnified His Word above His Name, and His Name is HOLY
I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name. - English is the most spoken language on earth today, worldwide, even though more people speak Chinese. Because? They live mostly in China.
- We were never called to be "textual critics", nor were the Levite Scribes who copied the Scriptures
- A person who does not believe in perfect Scriptures in the KJV can never say which other "Bible" is the perfect, inerrant, infallible words of the Living God they claim to believe in
- Important doctrines are removed, errors are introduced
- Yes, God can use the modern versons. God also used Balaam's ass. You can find pieces of hay in a pile of manure, but that does not make manure a good meal. You can find a piece of edible food in a trash can, but that does not make trash cans restaurants
And the LORD opened the mouth of the ass, and she said unto Balaam, What have I done unto thee, that thou hast smitten me these three times? And Balaam said unto the ass, Because thou hast mocked me: I would there were a sword in mine hand, for now would I kill thee. And the ass said unto Balaam, Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden ever since I was thine unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee? And he said, Nay. - There is only one true God, but there are also many false gods. There is one true Body of Christ, one True Church, made from of true born-again believers, yet there are many false churches. So why is it so wrong to teach that there is one true Bible, yet many false "bibles"? One Body, one Faith, one LORD, one God, one Spirit, one Church, one Baptism, 200 plus "versions"?
There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, one faith, one baptism, One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. - No one on earth who speaks of "the originals" has ever seen one
- Which GREEK are we talking about when we say "the Greek"?
- There is no place in Scripture that says that the inventor/creator of languages cannot translate perfectly, that is a manmade concept only.
- The KJV is made from the MAJORITY text, worn out, ragged from use. The modern "versions" come from the minority, unused by God mss.
- God is not the author of confusion, and multiple, conflicting "ver$ion$" lead to that. Look at the Laodicean church today
For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. - 100 years ago, we argued over what it MEANT by what it SAID; now it is "WHAT IT IS!" How sad.
- Westcott and Hort were full blown, New Aged, occultic, pagan heretics
- We are told to live by every word out of the mouth of God, but somehow we "do not any longer have them. Alas, they are lost."
And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live.
But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. - It was translated into Modern English, not Middle English, not Olde English. If we do not understand it, that is our fault.
- Small children raised on it understand it, kids 100 years ago understand it, foreigners have no problems. it take 12 years of American schools to dumb down a person to not understand it
- Going to two dead languages to "understand" or "get clarity" which you do not know and speak and write and understand is a lot more silly than trying to understand something written in your own language, which has dictionaries for it and people to ask who do understand it
- There has never been even one single attempt to "update the archaic language of the KJV" as they claim needs to be done. Not one time.
- Only the number ONE is the number of unity...all others are not
- Only one IS the Word of God; the rest are imposters which CONTAIN the Word of God
- Not one person ever died to bring us the "modern" "ver$ion$", during any "purification process"; many died to give us the KJV
- If one does due diligence, such as a side by side, verse by verse comparison, and does not walk away angry, they need to check their spiritual pulse. The MVs are dreadfully lacking and deeply corrupted
- God never said He would keep His "message", but every word, forever. If He did not, He failed us. He is not God.
(Matthew 5:18)
For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. - The Word of God is not what "we prefer", "we like", but it is what it is, despite us
- Oldest is not best....despite what we are told. Oldest is oldest, and unused. The best was worn out, used of God and man, and replaced
- Every word matters
And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God. - Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by that Word of God, not by spelling, punctuation, etc.
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. - Different words have different meanings
- Entire verses are missing, not just words
- Not until 1881 did anyone even question it, under Westcott and Hort, using inferior, minority mss, editing them to produce a false "bible" which fit their pet doctrines (occultic)
- God only spoke about scholars twice; and never in a good light
The LORD will cut off the man that doeth this, the master and the scholar, out of the tabernacles of Jacob, and him that offereth an offering unto the LORD of hosts.
