Because it requires inspiration to give us a perfect bible. It takes inspiration to give us the Spirit of Christ.
The Spirit of Christ DOES NOT teach that Gods word is inaccurate and full of “translational errors”.
The Spirit of Christ doesn’t teach that God is not capable of translating his word.
The Spirit of Christ doesn’t teach that God WILL NOT translate his word into other languages.
The Spirit of Christ doesn’t teach that he would preserve his world in the original languages.
All those teaches come from the lowest pits of hell.

Correct. If God has not preserved His word in the majority of Hebrew and Greek manuscripts, then the doctrine of the divine preservation of Scripture fails. But in fact, He has.
Those who were capable and qualified to collate the extant manuscripts (to a large degree) established the FACT that the traditional Hebrew and Greek texts did indeed represent the majority of manuscripts. The traditional Hebrew text is the Masoretic Text which was published in the printed Rabbinic Bible of Jacob ben Hayyim (16th century) called Mikraot Gedolot in Hebrew. The traditional Greek text was published in the printed Textus Receptus of Stephanus (16th century). Both of these were used by the King James translators (17th century). Therefore the KJB became the standard English Bible for over 400 years (again a confirmation of the preservation of Scripture). All conservative scholars, theologians, and pastors regarded this Bible as "the Word of God".
On the other hand, less than dozen corrupted manuscripts -- Aleph, A, B, C, D, E and a few papyri -- became the Minority Text. This was favored by almost all the unbelieving textual scholars and critics, simply because Aleph (Codex Sinaiticus) and B (Codex Vaticanus) happened to be the oldest. But in this case, oldest did NOT mean best. It meant "worst". This was clearly established by outstanding textual scholars such as Burgon and Scrivener (who were ignored because they spoke the truth). Satan was behind the corruption of modern English translations since 1881, and he succeeded to a very large degree. Through deception, the Christian world was persuaded to believe that modern versions were superior to the King James Bible. But Christ had already warned us of deceivers and liars, so there is no excuse.

True. But a careful examination of the Greek Septuagint (LXX) verses with those in the Greek New Testament shows that the apostles were not relying on the LXX, but on translating the Hebrew Tanakh into Greek. Once again it was not really Paul but the Holy Spirit directing Paul to quote as he did. Only about 10% of the OT quotations are an EXACT match to the LXX.
I agree to a point in being ready to defend,to teach to be instant in season and out of season but not in the way you do it.
Hey look,I love love love my KJV both 1611 and one Ive had for over 43 yrs.,but I move when the Spirit moves me, not as a mission to cause others to rile against his words in any translation.
God can and has used any thing,word,object or person to have HIS word prevail.
