  • @SCNOUVICEWALZAS Where did you copy and paste that from ? Lol

  • @Blegemoth Only for the Catholic Church there would never have been a King James Bible, the King James Bible is the result of a rebellious protest against the Church, therefore you now have your Protestant Bible the King James Bible , which has been changed so many times , i've lost count.

    I think i'll take the word of a Catholic priest who is a little more qualifed to give an opinion on this.

  • God preserves His word through the Church Jesus started which History proves to be the Catholic Church and even the KJV says the Church Pillar and ground of the truth and since the HS is truth then the HS must still be guiding this church today.

  • @Philos2006 A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty

  • King James version, because that version was translated by 47 scholars --

    None of those scholars had DIVINE CREDENTIALS. Their opinion and visions is as good as any otther.

  • Forget what this guy is saying. Anyone who reads this, do not pick and choose from any Bible as though they are all interchangeable. They most certainly are NOT! Read the King James version, because that version was translated by 47 scholars who were capable of the translations, even more than so called scholars are today. Also, remember - God preserves His word! Jesus is Lord!

  • What kind of Christian agree you? You didn't do anything here but cast doubt on the accuracy of the scriptures. Not once did you even mention that God sees to it that his word is preserved. Secondly, it is NOT advisable to have a whole heap of Bibles and pick and choose through them, because MANY Bibles these days were NOT translated from the ancient texts, but are (for all practical purposes) rewritten bibles, to suit religious agendas. Yet you know all this don't you? Jesus is Lord!

  • God is able and is willing -- that is why it was (drum roll please) .. "translated".

  • Why does the bible needs translation ? He could make the apostles talk in a language understandable by all, yet this omniscient god is unable or unwilling to inspire or write an instrcution book, vital to reach eternal salvation, in a language understandable by all.

  • Awesome. That was very informative.

    I'd watch out for what you said at 5:42 because that may not have been true for everyone.
