The Problem with Original Languages in Bible Study

5 months ago

1. I trust that God led the translators of the King James Version in a fashion that has not been equaled before or since.

2. I do not trust any Christian today to have the same level of leading from God as they had. Nor do I believe we have any scholarship today that equals theirs.

3. I question whether most modern students of the Bible are either aware of or concerned about the differences in the families of the original language texts at our disposal. They are not the same.

4. I believe that the use of original language studies is OFTEN (but not always) an excuse to avoid the plain meaning of the Bible.

5. There is simply no good reason to adjust the plain meaning of the English King James Version of the Bible by using questionable original language texts.
