I like the King James Version - poetically

I also like to have a lot of different versions and in different languages so I can compare them when I have a particular verse I do not understand or need clarification. Comparing translations give astonishing insights and also raise new questions.

My feelings exactly!

Personally I use new King James for study and everything. I tend to have a difficult time with Olde English. Small words such as thus, and thy can mess me up totally!

Oh How I love His Word

Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

And His Kids

Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!

You Don't Think We Could Be Related Do You

And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.

I read the Douay version. I am learning Latin, and should be reading a version of the Vulgate soon, but I love the Douay the most.

Beatus Dei, ave Christos!

I use the NIV in Church, at parks (reading the Bible out in nature is awesome!), and for general study.

I use KJV/NKJV for deeper study and that being much less frequently.

what the heck... a verse for today on the mind:

"Without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sin."

- Hebrews 9:22 AND Leviticus 17:11

I personally am King James only due to the research I've done in this area. I have full confidence in the Textus Receptus/Masoretic text over the Alexandrian texts. I believe the Lord is Lord and can keep his entire Word intacts for us, even at this late stage of the game. I believe that to be the KJB.

It is not something that I will break fellowship over, but after careful study over several years it is my choice. I find the language beautiful. Any words that I may not be familar with I simply look up in a KJB dictionary. Helps me learn.

Chick publications www.chick.com has an NIV test that may suprise some. I know it can be a controversial subject, but one worthy of study. After all, it is God's Word and is precious.

God Bless :)

I am so with you there :24: I'm a "KJV Only" and "God's Pure Word Only" kind of gal :24: I also believe that preserved His Word like he promised and while many may not agree, I believe that that text is what is used in the KJV :)

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
