Why use the King James Version (KJV) of the Bible?

Dr. Hovind explains why the King James Version (KJV) of the Bible is the actual preserved Word of God in the English language. He also points out many omissions and errors in the other versions of the Bible.

I don't know about you but, when I first got saved. The LORD lured me to the KJV bible, I was originally planning on buying a NIV bible. Since it was the easiest one I found to read and follow but, there was something about the KJV that gripped my attention and it gripped hard. I haven't own any other version since and never will, I'm a KJV only kinda man. Edit: I wasn't raised in no church, so I'm not bias on my KJV only preference because of my parents or pastor or church family. I was a die-hard God hating atheist up until February 2016. To God be the glory and God bless.

[@freesalvation7]

Arthur Schamne you are prejudiced against God because you want to be the master of your own life and keep your sin. Title: Unbelievers fully convinced after death SCRIPTURE READING: Luke 16:19-31 "There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead. SCRIPTURE TEXT: Luke 16:23 "And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments..." PROPOSITION: to use this text and others to show that what sinners refuse to believe in this life, they do believe at the moment of death. they become fully convinced of Gods greatness, severty, majesty, mighty power and their own depravity and the need of repentance. and also to show that those who do believe in this life are assured of eternal life through Gods only begotten Son. 1.) In what way are sinners fully convinced of the truths of Gods word in the world to come. A. They are fully convinced of their depravity and that a refusal to repent brought them to Hell and will bring others to join them. Luke 16:30 "And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent." B. They are fully convinced that they deserve the infinite misery and despair that they now experience in the torments of hell. Luke 16:25 "But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented." C. They are fully convinced that God is real, Hell is real, and that their churchianity, religiosity, and all their righteousness was unable to deliver them from that lake of burning brimstone. Luke 16:23 "And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom." D. They are fully convinced that heaven is a gift given NOT to those who deserve it but to those who receive it by faith. Luke 16:25 "...now he is comforted, and thou art tormented." Ephesians 2:8-9 "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast" E. They are fully convinced by what they see, feel and hear. often an evil and adulterous generation seek a sign because of the hardness of their heart, however when unregenerate men see their destruction it will be a sign that will torment them in their loathsome condition throughout eternity. Luke 16:24 "And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame." Deuteronomy 7:10 "And repayeth them that hate him to their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him that hateth him, he will repay him to his face." 2.) Why do worldlings, pseudo-Christians, and cult members refuse to be convinced by the love of the truth? A. Because they take pleasure in unrightousness and when a sinner takes pleasure in unrighteousness he becomes so deluded that he will believe a cleverly disguised lie and choose a cult over true Christianity. 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12 "And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness." B. Because they are blind "ever learning but never able to come to the knowledge of the truth". The elect will always obtain salvation and the rest will allways be blinded. Romans 11:7 "What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded." 3.) Why is it that sinners who come to Christ are convinced of the eternal realities that they cannot see. A. Because those who are born again have Gods Spirit to illuminate and enlighten them, 1 Corinthians 2:9-10 "But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath REVEALED THEM UNTO US BY HIS SPIRIT: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God." CONCLUSION: There are millions of people who will die in their sin, unwilling to believe the only one true gospel but at the moment of their death they will be fully convinced of eternal realities. but for those who believe that "God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son" to die in our place and be raised from the dead for our justification, and have trusted him ALONE are fully convinced and "persuaded that he is able to keep that which" we "have committed unto him against that day." Romans 4:24-25 "But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification."

Get a copy of my book, For Such A Time As This: Let My People Go, You End-Times Doomsday Sayers! I point out many very critical faulty interpretations in the KJV. I used the very documents that the KJV was translated from and the KJV is faulty in a very critical area. Many people criticize the Textus Receptus, but the errors are in the KJV. Caesar Augustus took a census of the Roman Empire, not the entire world, yet the KJV states "world." The Greek transliteration of the word used in the Textus Receptus is oikoumene. It always means a very limited territory. In the scriptures in the NT it means the Roman Empire, as well as the land occupied by the Jews, according to the context. Kosmos is the Greek transliteration of the Greek word that literally means the world, the planet earth. Aion is the Greek transliteration that means "age." The KJV translators inserted the word "world" in just about every instance in the NT where "aion" is used. This is a major error in the KJV. The end of the age, the New Covenant Era, is not the end of the world. The destruction of the temple and land occupied by the Jews is not the world, yet the KJV gives this false view. Hear the whole matter out before you mock and scoff. Get a copy of my book and read it. It will enlighten you to the point that you will walk on water! It is based only on scripture and historical documented facts, and not the opinions of any man.

[@freesalvation7]

René Koraschnigg that's exactly what the Bible says you would do. 1 Corinthians 1:18 "For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God." 2 Peter 3:3 "Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,"

[@pearl2705]

I think one of the worst omissions is in Mark 9:29 or also Matthew 17:21. The KJV says "... And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and FASTING." whereas in other translations, the NIV for example, gravely omitted the Fasting. IMAGINE being concealed from you a powerful weapon and principle against the enemy and this is what happened here! They took away the weapon of Fasting!

[@creativelycloudy3850]

Did you know it was omitted because it’s not found in the earliest manuscripts? In other words, a scholar likely added the word “fasting” even though it was not there. Then later copies did not recognize the error and continued using it.

[@stephenpalmer5080]

I have commented before about our misunderstanding of Biblical Text! Let us face facts, English is just a translation of the original Hebrew and Greek! When the King James Bible was completed it is not as if there were no difficulties or controversies! Fact is, there were several decisions made to alter the original Hebrew text, mainly because there was no word to replace the Hebrew! One such omission, should be considered one of the most important Hebrew scriptures ever written, H853! Made up of just 2 Hebrew letters, this entry is written some 4,00 times in Hebrew; And, some 3,000 times in Greek! The surprise is that H853, isn't even a word, but it is a "signature"! When, Lord God, The Son of God in (Genesis 2:4) entered into His own Creation, for the purpose of the Redemption of Mankind, He once said to the Hebrew Pharisees, That He was, "Alpha Omega"! At that point, they tried to assassinate Jesus on the spot! Why? Jesus was claiming to be the Author of the Old Testament! By saying, He was Alpha Omega, when translated back into Hebrew we can realize that the signature, "H853" consists of only 2 Hebrew letters, the Aleph and Tav! In other words, not only is the Aleph the first letter of the written Hebrew alphabet, Tav, is the last letter! In other words, Yeshua, was claiming to be "First and Last!", Whom, dictated the words of the original written Hebrew Bible/Manuscripts/Scrolls!

"5 For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the Lord; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him. 6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. 7 Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever. 8 The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted." Verse 5 is talking about the oppression of the poor. Verse 8 is talking about the wicked walk on every side. Sandwiched between that is a promise of God saying He will arise, will set him in safety. Verse 6 substantiates the Words of God when He says He will protect them (Gods words are pure, we can trust them). Verse 7 in the KJV means God will KEEP (as in protect) THEM (the poor from verse 5) from this generation. Them even in the KJV refers to the poor and is not meant to refer to His words. Yes, his words will always stand the test of time, but in this particular instance the verses refer to a situation of protecting the poor and not His words. If you read it in full context (even in the KJV).

He said “the words of the lord are pure words” that applies to every instance. I think you are overthinking it. It applies to the context of the poor, but it also applies to how God works. He never lies and his word will be with us at all times.

[@robkiviranta7671]

To word "forever" can only be applied in relation to the word of God, not the poor or oppressed. The poor and oppressed will not to be need to be kept in safety forever, for obvious reasons. The word of God must be preserved as is promised in these scriptures in Psalm 12. There is no defense for these corrupt Bible versions. They have greatly helped produce the growing apostasy we are experiencing.

Great video. I remember when I got saved I really just wanted a Bible. I was originally going to buy the NIV at a Walmart but was not able to get it because there was no label on it. Eventually, I went to a 99 cent store and saw copies of King James Version and at the time being so desperate to read the Bible, I bought it and I never bought another version ever since. After reading the King James Version for awhile I found out the truth about the new versions of the bible and how they are corrupt which really surprised me. To this day, every time I listen to someone quote or write a verse from the new versions, it doesn't feel right and it actually bothers me; when I hear someone quote or write a verse from the King James Version, it catches my attention and it sounds powerful. I guess you can call me old-fashioned because I am a KJV only man myself.

Knowing Church history helps in unfolding the layers of lies spread by people who claim to have the truth but their hearts are full of lies.

We need to read some of these verses in context, rather than taking them out of context, as the video does. For example, in Psalm 12, the first part of verse 7 most literally in English says "You, O Lord, will keep them" which do indeed refer to the words of the Lord, as the speaker says. However, the second part of verse 7 reads, "You will preserve him from this generation forever." The "him" this part is referring to is "the godly man" mentioned in verse 1. This is because this Psalm, like the others, is a poem, and the Psalms are often book-ended with the final verses tying back to the beginning verses.

If you study the active use of God ‘preserving’ throughout the Psalms, people or living creatures are the object. If the object of ‘preserve’ in Psalm 12 were the word of God, it would be in the form found in the ‘this generation’ referred to and its application to that ‘version’ would then be “for ever,” not to a version that wouldn’t be created until 1611. I believe that the KJV is all round the finest and best version to use, but let that argument rest on manuscript/text proofs, not on a misapplied verse.

Hey guys would appreciate your help. When brother Hovind says the bibles were compared from different countries in 1500-1600s around minute 5:20 does he mean greek manuscripts or different bible translations? Thanks

[@rwatson2609]

I'm not quite sure what he means. But here's the thing, back in 1600 there were very few of these Greek manuscripts to work with since many were still lost only to be found a few hundred years later in the 1800s-1900s. I know this because only about 8 Greek manuscripts and 1 Hebrew manuscript were used in the writing of the 1611 King James Version.

[@f2mel2]

Taken out of context. The word them, refers to the people in the previous verse. "Because of the oppressions of the weak and the groaning of the needy, I will now arise" says the Lord." I will protect THEM from those who maligne THEM ." Vers 6 is states in our modern idiom that the Lord's word is his bond and that his word not only is as good as gold, to refer to another idiom, but that the quality of the gold is of the highest grade. II Timothy 2:19 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

[@durrmoment291]

In my "study to prove thyselves worthy", the history I found was a little different regarding the new translations. What I found was that in the late 30's early 40's there was a group of secular scholars that publicly announced that they were going to prove the Bible was just written by man and not inspired by God. Because anything written by man would be full of inconsistencies, contradictions and outright mistakes and they were using the most widely used Bible at the time, The King James. They were never heard from again. But shortly after there was a push to take the "thees" and the "thous' out to make it easier to read. But unlike King James, who took his top scholars and gave them a copy of the original Hebrew text and charged them to produce the most accurate translation under penalty of death, these spiritual leaders just took the King James to a publishing company and asked them to take them out. Problem was that none of these publishing companies were Christian and no one supervised the process. And Satan stepped in. And with America using mostly new translations today, if another group of secular scholars were to challenge the authenticity of the Bible using the new translations, they would have plenty of ammunition to discredit it and many Christian's faith would be crushed. Other things I found in my "study to prove thyselves worthy" are... Most bibles say for the Fourth Commandment "Keep the Sabbath day holy" which many take as Sunday (Emperor Constantine's contribution in 300AD), others think it can be any day as long as you take a day off. My King James says "Keep "my" Sabbath day holy" which to me, wanting to be one of the few that enter, means we observe the Sabbath when God observed the Sabbath, which he specifically laid out as Friday sundown to Saturday sundown, either Mount Saini time or Jerusalem time if he was thinking ahead, still working that one out. But, that means that Mount Saini time or Jerusalem time having an hour difference in their sundown times would make it 11am to 12 Eastern standard time Friday as of last week. You can find sundown times for both Mount Saini and Jerusalem online along with the time differences to each time zone here... One more easy one. OMG IS taking the Lord thy God's name in vain. Boycott it online, wash your or your kids mouth out with soap if said.

But it's not referring to us keeping his words but rather to the fact that God keeps his promises in this particular passage.

They already had the Geneva Bible so why do we need another one? I personally believe (which I understand doesn’t mean much) in the next 50 years the KJV will not be used by many churches or Christians because of the drastic change in the English language. But I find comfort in the answers to these question. Did God’s promise of preservation stop with the King James Bible? No, Isaiah 40:8 Is God powerful enough to continue to preserve His word? Absolutely, Matt 25:35 Sometimes we put God in a box and don’t even realize it. God is all powerful, all knowing, and everywhere at the same time, this “issue” is not hard for God.

@@provokingthought9964 there lies the idea of faith. You have to have faith, that his word has been around for every generation. The idea that his words were “hidden” and 2 guys in the 1800 correctly translated it, contradict the scripture.

[@provokingthought9964]

@playdiscgolf1546 I do believe his word has been around for every generation (in the original languages w/in the majority of manuscripts) But if we take something like, Revelation 16.5 in the KJV "And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, AND SHALT BE, because thou hast judged thus" I have to believe God had John write that and then it existed for a while in manuscripts then disappeared for many generations to be rediscovered by Beza in the 16th century. "And shalt be" was Beza saying, he supposed that was what John meant. He changed the Greek there. And the KJV reflects that change. I'm sure some other TR based English New Testaments from that time have it too (im not up on this stuff anymore). But the point is the KJV as a translation has some readings that didn't exist before the time the TR was collated. So I cannot accept the KJV as my foundation for preservation. Also, I agree. I don't want some textual readings that were literally buried to the sands of time for centuries only to be rediscovered in the 1800s. That is the same issue as the Revelation 16.5 KJV example. Besides all these small nit picks I don't get why the KJV is chosen as the ONE by the KJVO folks. It's not even the first English translation. Why would God deprive English speakers of a pure and whole Bible for all generations until 1611? (I don't adhere to your logic but if I did, no English speaker before 1611 had a Bible in full form when God had -again to the kjvo view- PROMISED them a preserved Bible. The logic of KJVO undercuts itself because the KJV, love it though I do, doesnt fit the criteria the KJVO person demands of it.

I used to not believe this, as I used to use several modern Bible translations. But one by one, I learned about problems with each one. Ultimately, the Lord led me to go with the KJV. We now go to a General Baptist church (very much like Freewill Baptist), and pretty much everyone there uses the KJV exclusively. Last winter, we got a new pastor who encourages use of the KJV, or Amplified, if based on the KJV, which gives alternate synonyms in parentheses for words in the KJV that some may find hard to understand. As for me, the KJV is what I'll use until the Lord calls me home.

[@KingArtexerxes]

I grew up with the KJ version, but I’ve never liked it. I’m 70, btw. In mid life I switched to the NKJ. I liked it better, but many things were still a bit difficult to understand. Today, I prefer the NIV. Plus I occasionally use other versions to make comparisons. In KJ version days when it was written, knowledge of the original manuscripts wasn’t known as it is today. KJ isn’t original English, it was copied and modified from earlier versions. I’ll take the 2011 NIV as the version I trust and understand the best. Also note, newer versions don’t just rely upon one manuscript, but use all of those available.

@KingArtexerxes but if you dont love the the Authorised Bible and its author, you are an unbeliever and love lies ,it's called willfully blindness.

[@KingArtexerxes]

I know it’s difficult for you to understand. Just because some attached the word authorized to a bible version, doesn’t make it authorized by God. Just think about the hundreds of other languages the Bible has been translated into. Just because they don’t learn old English and read the “authorized” King James Version doesn’t mean they can’t know God. I know God very well. And I know Him even better by studying His word in many English versions, thereby gaining that extra boost of understanding. There are probably many King James only people out there, and I used to be one of them, but my understanding of scripture has immensely expanded due to all the additional versions and comparisons. The NIV actually is much closer to the original manuscripts than most other versions. None of the versions are perfect, so a reading of varied versions is beneficial. I love God and His Son (also God) very very much. They are my whole life.

[@garyteeters-ok3hc]

@KingArtexerxes if you don't love the Authorised Word, you don't love the Author ,Jesus and His Authorised Word are one and the same,in the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God,Jesus's Words they are Spirit and they are Life it's not an intellectual book it's the book of life ,the organ for believing is not the brains, it's with the heart man believes unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

[@winesdelight]

I have to disagree (with Love) on the example of Psalm 12:6-7. Without context we cannot understand The Word and verses 1-8 (especially Verse 5) reveals a lot in this text. Verse 5 says "For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him.” The Lord promises safety for the Godly Man against the oppression of the Children of Men( v1-4) V6 is a testament that when The Lord says something he's gonna do it! Therefore the "Them" in V7 couldn't be The Lords Words but is the Godly man(described as Needy in V5) being preserved from the Wicked.
