Now I am not sure what to make of this exactly. But a few things that the authour points too in the article is, well, causing me to be concerned. Because if its all true, we have a problem on our hands.

Great article. You should be very concerned because all of these so called more accurate versions of the bible have lead to confusion, animosity, and disunity among the body of Christ.

Wouldn't be too concerned if I were you. None of the basics like God is love have changed.

I Learned to Read Using The KJV 1611 - It Is The Bible Of My Heart And Reading It Makes My Soul Sing To The KING

It Is A Most Holy Book And It Should Never To Be Used To Beat And To Accuse God's Kids Of Grace And To Attack The Holy Bible In Later English

The Site Linked To Is (IMO) A Site Of Sham And Contempt For God's Most Holy Word And Should Not Be Allowed On A Internet Haven To Jesus Kids Worldwide Such As Worthy Boards.

I Have Many KJVO Brothers I Fellowship With Worldwide

And Jesus Christ And Him Crucified Is The Main Subject And The Sure Hope Of These Precious Believers.

They And Their Church Ministries Are In My Heart And My Prayers And When We Stand Before The Throne, This Strife Will Not Enter Our Thoughts.

The NIV Is A Joy

The NKJV Is A Wonder To Behold

I Also Dearly Love And Read The NASV As My Go To Church And My Read With God Bible

The Paraphrased Version Makes Me Morn My Sins And Laugh Out Loud At Myself And My Brothers And To Rejoice In My LORD's Love

And While I Worked I Scotch Taped Together A Paper Amplified New Testament I Kept At My Work Desk Until It Finely Wore Out But I Still Have It It Is So Dear I Can't Bear To Let It Go.

Some Of Our Family Worldwide Have Only Scraps Of Paper With A Few Scriptures Hand-Written Upon Them And Some Folk Have No Scriptures Whatsoever.

If One Wants To Really Quibble Over Translations Then Support Ministries Such As Wycliffe Bible Translators And Pour Your Prayers And Your Treasure Into Their Work.

Time Is Short And The Harvest Is Ripe And You Can Quibble Before God (Not!)

Wycliffe Bible Translators

Today about 200 million people do not have the Bible in their own language. Wycliffe

I would not listen to too much of what this gentleman has to say. I've read other articles written by him. He's way off base, on most of his issues. And he does have issues. He seems to "yell" alot. I think he has a ministry called Dial-The-Truth Ministries. Not sure if that's the same guy or not. This is the third article, I have found so far, that talks about the peversion of the other translations, even the New King James Version.

Anyway, just google his name and you can, if you want to, see his other many articles, covering topics such as "evil" Santa, to "evil" music and misicians.

There are some paraphrased bibles that are like story books and should be considered as such. Saying this, you have to remember that the Holy Spirit is our teacher and He will teach us the truth.

John 14:26

But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.

This is a personal choice. If you can read the KJV, then do so. I personally have a hard time with the KJV, having to look up words that i don't know, so I use the NKJV. There are many translations that are good, but as I stated, the Holy Spirit is our teacher and will not lead us astray. But remember, we first have to understand the meanings of the words we read. Some in the KJV are not used today, so we don't know the context of how they were using it.

Although 90% of Bibles agree on 90% of the translation........it ought to give us pause that almost all the modern translations leave out enough verses or words from Textus Receptus to make up THE ENTIRE BOOK OF JAMES!

Can you drill down more on this?
