THE KJV DEBATE – WHO
IS RIGHT?
“THE DIVINE
FAIRNESS” MANIFESTO
Who is right? First, both sides are unremitting and
relentless (they won’t give in and they won’t give up), although the KJV side
seems to be winning.
What is the fundamental
(key) difference between the two sides?
Before we proceed, let us name the two sides:
King James Bible Advocates
“Bible Ocean” Advocates
We have named the other side
“‘Bible Ocean’ Advocates” because there is “an ocean (large number) of other
Bible translations” competing with the King James Version of the Bible.
THE BIBLE OCEAN
The ocean of Bibles falls
into the following two groups.
UNCONFIRMED BIBLE TRANSLATIONS
These are Bible
translations that are often “smart translations”; that is, they are well written. However, they do not have a sufficient
“confirmation base” for anyone to know that they are CORRECT translations. In other words, no one has published an
exhaustive (complete) and systematic comparison of them with the ancient
languages text of the Bible. Without
the comparison, these Bibles have NO AUTHORITY. THEY MUST BE REJECTED.
CONFIRMED BIBLE TRANSLATIONS
These are Bibles that
have been compared with the ancient languages text of the Bible. These Bibles fall into two groups:
Stable Translations
These are Bibles that
were translated hundreds of years ago.
We can be more precise but greater precision will make no difference in
our conclusions. These Bibles have
never been proven to contradict the ancient languages text of the Bible. Now, some will argue that they have
been proven to contradict the ancient languages text of the Bible. We will address this matter shortly.
The King James Version of
the Bible is a stable translation.
However, the section you are reading is about “translations that are in
competition with the King James Version of the Bible.”
All of the stable
translations agree with the King James Version of the Bible. Therefore, there will never be any debate
over these translations between King James Bible Advocates and Bible Ocean
Advocates.
Unstable
Translations
These are Bibles that
were translated within the last hundred years or so. We can be more precise but greater precision will make no
difference in our conclusions. These
Bibles have been proven to contradict the ancient languages text of the
Bible. Now, some will argue that they
have NOT been proven to contradict the ancient languages text of the
Bible. We will address this matter
next.
CONTRADICTION
The King James Bible
Advocates say the translations promoted by the Bible Ocean Advocates CONTRADICT
the ancient languages text. The Bible
Ocean Advocates say the King James Bible CONTRADICTS the ancient languages
text.
If you know who we are,
you know where we stand. You also know
that we provide proof of our position. However, not everyone has the time to study
our proof or anyone else’s proof for that matter. Without studying the proof how can you be sure? The answer is clear-cut.
“THE DIVINE FAIRNESS” MANIFESTO
THIS
MANIFESTO IS BASED ON PORTIONS OF SCRIPTURE THAT ARE IDENTICAL IN ALL STREAMS
OF TRANSMISSION (MANUSCRIPT FAMILIES) – “GOLDEN
VERSES” – AND ARE ALSO TRANSLATED THE SAME BY ALL – “PLATINUM VERSES.”
God’s answer to the
question of “Which Bible is the ‘True Bible?’” FOR THOSE WHO DON’T HAVE THE
TIME TO STUDY THE PROOF, is this:
1.
You must try to make
time to study the proof.
2.
Until you can study
the proof, you must follow the belief THAT YOU ALREADY HAVE.
3.
If you have no belief,
you must REJECT ALL BIBLE TRANSLATIONS.
If you are decent and honest, God will not penalize you for your
rejection.
4.
If you are shown that
your belief is incorrect YOU MUST CHANGE YOUR BELIEF.
5.
WITHOUT PROOF, you may
never be dogmatic or insistent with others that your belief is correct and/or
that someone else’s belief is incorrect.
6.
WITHOUT PROOF, you may
never speak, assert, declare, announce, or publish your belief for the purpose
of getting other people to accept your belief and you may never oppose anyone
who speaks, asserts, declares, announces, or publishes their belief for the
purpose of getting other people to accept their belief
7.
WITHOUT PROOF, you may
never support, endorse, encourage, or promote anyone or anything that seeks to
get others to accept your belief and you may never oppose anyone who supports,
endorses, encourages, or promotes anyone or anything that seeks to get others
to accept their belief.
8.
Finally, you must be
prepared to change your belief as many times as necessary for you to come to a
firm conclusion. If you are decent and
honest, God will not penalize you for changing your belief more than once.
