The gospel message of Christ’s sacrificial death on the Cross for our sins and His subsequent burial and Resurrection can be found in the NIV, NASB, ESV, or practically any other Bible translation.
This is false and is akin to adding works to the gospel message.
Some KJOs have gone as far as saying that a person is not even saved if someone used an NIV while sharing the gospel with them. Surely all Christians would agree that it would be ideal if each language had a Bible version without mistakes in it, but this is simply not true to reality. Question 2: Is it a sin to use a Bible that has mistakes? The Bible doesn’t say anything like this, so the KJO cannot prove their position from Scripture, and the two main Bible passages they use to support their view do not support their view. The first question asked KJOs where the Bible ever claimed that God would preserve His word for us in an English version of Scripture that would be translated in 1611. Also, please do not view these posts as a shot at those who are better classified as “King James Preferred” or “Only King James.” These are individuals who prefer to use the King James Version over any other Bible, but they do not condemn those who use different translations as do many KJOs. I will do my best to be kind in how I address these issues. In this post, we will look at questions two and three.Īs I mentioned in the first post, I understand this can be an extremely sensitive issue. These are Christians who believe the King James Version is the only inspired version of Scripture, and that believers should refrain from using any other translation. In the first post of this series, I mentioned that I had five sincere questions to address to King James Onlyists (KJOs). The Greek version of the Old Testament, called the Septuagint, is regularly criticized by King James Onlyists, however, its text often (not always) more accurate with New Testament quotations than the Masoretic Text.
