1611 KJV vs Today

[YeshuaFan]

YF you lost me on this one.

Generally I can see your directionality.

???

For the KJVO person to be able to claim that the Kjv was and is perfect and last and only translation for us to use, they would have to see the Holy Spirit inspired them to translate into English same way he inspired bible writers to write down the books of the canon

I believe that,I'm just not into the Sinaiticus or Vaticanus mss. (those two.. upon which most modern translations are based).

And that would be why you are TR Only, and KJVP

Majority of the Greek scholars though opted for critical Greek text, some for Majority text, smallest for TR

IMHO, also, the majority of the Greek scholars are theological liberals

Perhaps, or TRp

I recently learned that the 1611 KJV contained the Apocrypha between the Old and New Testaments but those books were gradually dropped for various reasons over the subsequent centuries.

In my mind that's why it's vital to have a gifted bible teacher. I found one in Dr. Gene Scott in 1987.

He amassed the largest bible collection in private hands behind the Vatican, and that's what he taught from. Being a teachers teacher in all the languages, he would bring out a dozen different bibles from different languages, and show which one got it right or the closest to right.

He graduated in 2005, and passed his mantle to his wife melissa Scott. It's now Dr. melissa Scott, and she now has that collection and has been teaching from it for 20 years.. She speaks over 20 languages , specializing in punctuation.

Because they are the only ones I've ever heard that teach what the application of pisteuo is correctly, they are the only ones i trust with anything Scriptural.
