The points are:
a. the Gothic Version is of the Tradition Text, and is an early Version witness for the correct renderings as presented in the KJB.
b. The Gothic langauge, which has a remote similarity to English, was spoken at the time of Christ.
But the KJB did not come FROM the Gothic Version, and the English language did not come from Gothic. Saxon was also spoken at the time of Christ. The King James Bible (New Testament) actually comes primarily from Byzantine Greek copies (and importantly is a revision of pre-existing English Bibles, while taking into account many other sources.)
