That doesn't even make any sense. I don't have to disprove your original post to know the goal has always been King James onlyism. All anyone has to do is read the evolution of your posts to see it.

So which Bible version is the word of God? They can't all be 100% true because they contradict each other.

This may seem odd to you after all that I have been saying here thus far, but I strongly, and I mean very strongly, prefer the KJV...and that mainly because of the texts that it is translated from. In other words, even though there are poor translations at times into English, I still trust the underlying texts.

That's not true. As I've said so far - I hate how complicated and archaic KJV is, but unless you can disprove the mathematical formulas encoded in it, they still stand as a potential sign from God.

You complain that the KJV language is complicated and archaic, yet based on some mathematical formulas you still thinks it's the one true Bible. That's the very definition of King James onlyism.

Just because something is confusing doesn't mean it's incorrect. And you have yet to disprove those formulas.

Your formulas and your King James onlyism are two different things. I don't really care how you arrived at King James onlyism, the idea is ridiculous on its surface. So whether you got there by mathematical formulas or by tossing a coin is irrelevant. The fact is you got there and because of that I'm pretty suspect of your judgment.

They do not "stand" just because you "see" something in them..... they stand only in your mind.

We have all the "signs" of God that are necessary for spreading the word..... it's called "the Word".... it's complete without secret handshakes and special underwear....
Once you understand the Word of God completely, and find it lacking somewhat, THEN you can go look for some mystical, mysterious, hidden code....

I can't believe you're against special underwear.

So... tomorrow I'm going to the department store... and I'm asking the nice lady for "non special underwear."
I think it's gonna get really weird.

Then why do you support KJV if God is not the author of confusion?

You do realize the context of that verse is people speaking in tongues.

I already answered your first question. Again, although I know that everything in the KJV is not perfectly translated from either Hebrew or Greek into English, I do trust the underlying texts. Beyond that, I have done extensive Bible comparisons over the years, and, based upon my research, the KJV is by far the best English translation.

As far as your second question is concerned, yes, I do understand the context, but I believe it has a much broader application.

Thanks for pointing that out. Given that the KJV is known to have errors, it is excluded from consideration.
