"You have so exalted your solemn decree that it surpasses your fame." What does that statement from the NIV even mean?
So much for easy understanding.

You're pretty good a ciphering lol, I would have never gotten that out of those words.He has exalted His word above His name. It’s saying the same thing the KJV says, just differently.
What it did was elimenate another passage about the importance of God's inerrant word. SSSubtlely.So much for easy understanding.![]()

Exactly; it's a fact that you have deferred to the KJV translators, and as such, you have no argument.Not an argument. Facts.
Then you should abandon your KJV in favour of a Tyndale version.He accused me of worshiping a book. Ridiculous. If we don't magnify God's word, Jesus Christ will not be received and worshiped.
I've talked to lost people who reject Christianity because of all the different bibles. They claim that Christians cannot even get their story straight. Confusion comes when there's more than one authority.
Oh, but you do insult. When you assert others don’t believe “all” the words of God like “you” do, it is an insult. In fact it is not only a purposeful insult, it is done in arrogance, in superiority, but it is baseless.Not arrogant, but confident. And I never demean or cast insults.

Will you ever learn to think through your arguments before posting them?
I guess you'll have to "study to shew thyself approved". It's perfectly clear to me."You have so exalted your solemn decree that it surpasses your fame." What does that statement from the NIV even mean?

Tyndale's version is second in line of the purification process, purified seven times.

There is nothing mysterious or indecipherable about the NIV verse. It makes more sense in 2020 than the awkward sounding KJ rendering."You have so exalted your solemn decree that it surpasses your fame." What does that statement from the NIV even mean?

What are both the book of life and tree of life metaphors for? I say both metaphorically refer to eternal life. Is there are difference between the book of life and the tree of life?
I'm sorry you feel that way.Yes there is.
But I'm not carrying on a conversation with you. You're too muddled and confused. Your theology, if you have any is all over the place.
Soooooo.....
God's word = solemn decree, that's easily understood?
surpasses your fame = your name, that's easily understood?
Wow!
I'm not saying that, I was saved with no bible, I was an atheist. After I was saved, I read the NIV for years.Just a question...
If those who read only the KJV , and believe that is the only true word of God , is that not like saying only KJV people are saved ?...
I have never read the KJV , but I know I am saved because my NASB tells me because it is Gods Word ...
God is amazing...

The best translation is obviously the one you can understand.
On what do you base your criticism? To what do you compare the NIV that you call it "twisted"?However there are translations that I would advise everyone to stay away from and they are the modern versions that twist scripture to conform to social norms.. I.E using different genders. The NIV is the worst..
Worthless for what, exactly? Do you understand the difference between a translation and a paraphrase? Do you understand the intent and value of each?the message and other far out translations are also worthless.
