But it is not stated, therefore it's your interpretation. Given that, it carries no more weight than any other interpretation.

While it may align with Paul's words, there is no logical connection between the two. Elihu is not talking about inspiration to write Scripture, period. It's simply not relevant. Consider these: Genesis 1:3 - 5 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that...

Which says nothing about the KJV.

That millions of people read the KJV today does not make its language current. "Correct English"... by what standard of "correct"?

Or none of them. Also, God can legitimately speak through His word ten different ways to ten different people, because those people are in ten different contexts. No, you don't. God will judge you by the words you have; they need neither be complete nor completely accurate. Modern...

Since the text doesn't actually unpack what "confess the Lord Jesus" means, your position is based on speculation.

I strongly suspect you mean 2 Peter, not 1 Peter. Since 2 Peter 1:20-21 is talking about prophecy specifically, and not Scripture in general, whatever you think about it is limited to that context. But those passages aren't saying anything about the writing of Scripture under inspiration. The...

Again, you're being ridiculous. What was Erasmus doing? Trying to determine what was originally written, and to render it in one Greek volume. Do you believe he was doing something fundamentally different than that? If not, then why the silly badgering?

Again, look at 1 Corinthians 12:3. Does it say, "the Lord Jesus" or "Jesus is Lord"?

Good! You are free to believe what you like, but that requires a belief that God reinspired the KJV translation, which I categorically reject. In fact, I would say He has done the opposite (of making the KJV archaic), taking care to make His word accessible, even if it takes effort to...

Where is that in Scripture?

Why would I keep that in mind? You're asking for documentation for something Erasmus, in principle, thought. That's ridiculous.

And the KJV says, "If if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus... thou shalt be saved." You're criticizing "the modern versions" when the KJV says exactly the same thing. I honestly don't understand what you think the problem is here. Agreed. What's the issue? Um, what? It is...

Please elaborate.

There are no other kinds. Your argument is moot. Let it go.

Oooh... let's make yet another fallacious comparison. I wonder if the average person, new to the Bible, has ever heard of the Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level assessment. I would suspect not, and I would further suspect that they wouldn't care. In other words, the above is irrelevant. If a person...

Frankly, you're being ridiculous. The difference between the two renderings is so minor as to be inconsequential. You're attempting to make an issue where none exists. KJV 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from...

Glad you see it now.

And you were there to hear every word he spoke. Uh huh.

Given that I just told you they say the same thing, your response is silly.
