You can list all of the individual translation problems you care to and it still doesn't overcome the fact the no one speaks the language that the KJV was written in any longer. If you want a perfect translation, forget it. It cannot happen - period. Just go get the Greek or Hebrew text and good...

Certainly. Its "handlable" but the cost/benefit ratio is way out of whack. You can simply read the NKJV and save yourself the internal effort of translating the KJV into modern English as you read it.

So far as the meanings behind the words used, there's not a dime's worth of difference between the KJV vs the NKJV. There isn't any such thing as a perfect translation so they all have their issues but the NKJV manages to avoid all of the really serious problems in the other modern English...

All of which are better than the Old King James, which might as well be written in a different language. (y)

From "Proving the Existence of God"... "Solving the Regress Problem Regress means every event is dependent on a prior event that caused it. Anything that can change or move in any way is subject to this principle. Regress does not affect choices that are “free” and not the result of a series of...

The New King James is the best in my opinion for several reasons but nearly any modern English translation is better than the Old King James. I will certainly read them. There's a good chance I already have. I've been on your website many times in the past. PM me your email address.

Well, that's true, but I don't think Idolater was thinking in those terms. Most Catholics do not seem to understand Paul's gospel of grace, which is the only one that will save you.

I never developed the skill of debating verbally. What I can do in writing, I'm not very good at on the fly and in person. I envy your skill in that area. "Hitler didn't kill anybody; he just recycled a lot of people into their new bodies." Total brilliance! By the way, I'm trying to write a...

First of all, I can barely follow the King James version of the bible. I can't understand why anyone uses it at all anymore. There are several better options. Ephesians 4:20 But you have not so learned Christ, 21 if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in...

If I didn't agree with the sentiment that you've expressed here, you'd not aggravate me half as much. I was heart broken over the Flat Earth stuff. Not just because it all just so completely mindless but because one of my favorite people was getting sucked in by it. I was watching you destroy...

If you continue to be this responsive then I'm happy to continue the discussion. Go into jerk mode or unresponsive mode again and you're on your own. Why is that the doctrine you desire to cling too? How is it possible that that single issue is sufficient to falsify (in your mind) an entire...

They aren't false accusations and you cherry picking particular posts doesn't remove the reality that you know full well that I remember extremely clearly. It has nothing to do with arrogance or me playing God. It's simple common sense and first person experience and plain memory of the events...

People throw this charge at us all the time, and it is pretty predictable. If we are not under the law anymore, if every sin is already forgiven, if our righteousness is only in Christ and not in how well we perform, then what is to stop a person from just doing whatever they want and calling it...

Our calling you a liar has nothing to do with our theological disagreements, it has to do with you saying things that you know are false and that we all know are false because we were there. We all remember the two year discussion where I BEGGED you to stop and to see reason over and over and...

I wonder whether Dave would have ever noticed, without me pointing it out here, that the one he accuses of teaching that one can "sin with impunity" was the one calling him on the carpet about lying? Probably not. In any case, I've been working on the following essay in response to this whole...

This thread is all the proof that is needed that both accusation are true. You flagrantly lied about not actually believing the Earth was flat, which you did, and probably still do, and the idiotic back and forth about "rhetorical questions" is proof that you're an intentional jerk. Live with...

I no longer care at all about anything you think or say. You're stubborn and dishonest and a waste of my time. Like I said, just go believe whatever you want. You're going to anyway, so why bother with the pretense? Just convince yourself of whatever it is you need to believe about someone...

I don't trust the implications of what a Catholic might mean by "grave" duty, however... Mid-Acts Dispensationalists, like all genuine Christians, place a great deal of importance on the moral nature of marriage and it's importance not merely to the family unit but also, and by extension, to...

Why do I keep giving this fool my time?!! Nothing anyone ever says penetrates. He's not responding, he's just repeating himself and pretending not to understand that points we are making. I'm done wasting my time chasing this jerk around in circles. He's a liar anyway. Who cares what he thinks...

Bull. You didn't answer because you knew the implications of the answer. No, David. IT WAS NOT RHETORICAL!!!! Being righteous is not a work of the flesh, following the law IS!!!
