I do not know why you go off on such a tangent?   You are the one who believes this if you believe that the KJV translation "is the only one for me,"   What was used for English speaking folk before the KJV?   Which edition of the received text IS the correct one and why did it take a Dutch Catholic so long to get it right?   And which edition of the KJV is the right one?   The one with all those other books in it, or the Protestant version?    And why did Erasmus add ACts 9:6a?   You above all people know full well that this does not appear in any greek text ?   And what about the last six verses of Revelations?   Erasmus couldn't find those words.   What is of more value, here  --  the actual greek text  (received text) or the man-made translation of that text?   
 
Regarding W & H  -  you have apparently forgotten what I said about them?  
 
I believe that the written message has always been there.  I also believe that God's has never ceased to work His will nor the Power of the Indwelling to have ever been made void.

Just think for all those years the church did not have the word of God just a Single Man-Made translation. UNTIL (1881) God found himself TWO RCC Heretics named Westcott & Hort to RESTORE the Original intent & text! Sort of like a Christianized verison of the JO Smith story!

Then childishness has taken a lot of ppl to heaven and blessed generations for more than 400yrs.
It wasn't a single man JD, it was 46 different teams that were sanctified or set apart and worked
prayerfully together - so why such vehement opposition from your corner?

You misrepresent the B side of the room.   The final authority is what God wants me to see as I read a given text  .....................   not what a translator wants me to believe.   You want to toss the MSS and trust a given man-made edition of the bible without personal verification  --  be my guest.   I would be an ignorant man to do so  .................  not to mention the limiting effect it would have on what God is doing or teaching me in my life.

cd: My recommendation for this solution is to have a simple child-like trust in the KJ-This type of trust invokes God and you will understand far more then what you glean from the Greek.

The CREED of the Alexandrian Cult
There is no final authority but God.
 
Since God is a Spirit, there is no final authority that can be seen, heard, read, felt, or handled.
 
Since all books are material, there is no book on this earth that is the final and absolute authority on what is right and what is wrong: what constitutes truth and what constitutes error.
 
There WAS a series of writings one time ( called the Originals) which, IF they had all been put into a BOOK as soon as they were written the first time, WOULD HAVE constituted an infallible and final authority by which to judge truth and error.
 
However, this series of writings was lost, and the God who inspired them was unable to preserve their content through Bible-believing Christians at Antioch (Syria), where the first Bible teachers were (Acts 13:1), and where the first missionary trip originated (Acts 13:1-52), and where the word 'Christian originated (Acts 11:26).
 
So, God chose to ALMOST preserve them through Gnostics and philosophers from Alexandria, Egypt, even though God called His Son OUT of Egypt (Matthew 2), Jacob OUT of Egypt (Genesis 49), Israel OUT of Egypt (Exodus 15), and Joseph's bones OUT of Egypt (Exodus 13).
 
So, there are two streams of Bibles: the most accurate (though, of course, there is no final, absolute authority for determining truth and error: it is a matter of "preference") are the Egyptian translations from Alexandria, Egypt, which are "almost the originals," although not quite.
 
The most inaccurate translations were those that brought about the German Reformation (Luther, Zwingli, Boehier, Zinzendorf, Spener, etc.) and the worldwide missionary movement of the English-speaking people: the Bible that Sunday, Torrey, Moody, Finney, Spurgeon, Whitefleld, Wesley, and Chapman used.
 
But we can "tolerate these if those who believe in them will tolerate US. After all. Since there is NO ABSOLUTE AND FINAL AUTHORITY that anyone can read, teach, preach. or handle, the whole thing is a matter of "PREFERENCE." You may prefer what you prefer, and we will prefer what we prefer; let us live in peace, and if we cannot agree on anything or everything, let us all agree on one thing: THERE IS NO FINAL, ABSOLUTE, WRITTEN AUTHORITY OF GOD ANYWHERE ON THIS EARTH.

heart is true to the intent of wanting truth-the proud will never see it
anyway.
