KJV In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. NKJV In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. My goodness, the corruption is unbelievable! Call the elders! Summon the media! Kick the dog! smh... John146, you really should think before posting. It will save you from...

And the second, where the great lights and the stars were formed.

Yes. In the manuscripts.

I have no issue with people preferring the KJV. I have no issue with people thinking (for themselves) that the KJV is the standard. However, such thinking does not hold any logical or evidentiary value. :)

It did. The Mosaic/Levitical age ended in 70 AD.

There are different words in Greek, which mean different things, and they are translated to the same word in English. In Matthew 24:14, "world" is ethnesin, from the root ethnos. It refers to the extent of the different people groups (ethnicities). In Colossians 1:5, "world" is kosmo, which...

Sadly, you are uninformed regarding basic logic. For there to be modifications or removals from newer translations, the verses would have had to be in the newer translations; they aren't, and weren't. There are DIFFERENCES between the KJV and the newer translations. The KJV is not the accepted...

Scripture tells us that there is more than one, confirming the modern translations: 2 Corinthians 12:2 I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth such an one caught up to the third heaven.

It's quite simple; see my post #65.

What you found is that some verses were included in the KJV which were not included in some newer versions, for good reason. You present this as though it was intentional corruption, which it most certainly was not.

No verses have been "modified/removed etc. from newer translations". Do your homework, stop taking only one source for your information, and get your facts straight. I would recommend that you read James White's The King James Bible Controversy... for starters.

Completely irrelevant. "God's form of government" comes in several flavours, only one of which is a theocratic monarchy.

Does "helpmeet" indicate subservience at all? No, because if it did, it would imply that God is subservient to humankind, which of course He is not. Therefore, does it imply any subservience of women to men? Not at all. Paul's words need to be taken in context, not in isolation. That includes...

This thread warrants a thorough response, but I will begin with this: The words translated "help meet" are ezer kenegdo. These words are used of God Himself in other passages. As such, they do not indicate anything of subservience or incapability for leadership. Rather, they indicate full...

The thread title made me chuckle... that does rather sum up the Calvinist viewpoint, does it not? ;)
