Greeting to each of you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Here is a link that explain how the word of God is recognized in any language:

I would have pasted it here, but thought it might be too long.

I have been preaching the gospel in Mexico (10 years) and Poland (13+ years) and have unique insights into the Bible issue in foreign languages. Food for thought:

1) Whatever principles lead us to believe the AV is the word of God in English should, must and are used by born again spirit filled Christians in other lands speaking other languages.

2) Remember there was no fight with God given Bibles in foreign languages prior to 1881. Since then even AV Bible believers have become Bible critics.

3) Any type of doctrine about "preservation" must give valid examples of how this works i.e. how does "preservation" jump from one language to another? The Greek and Hebrew Scriptures did not suddenly stop being "the Scriptures" when translated into other languages. The word of God existed PRIOR to 1611 and AFTER 1611. The word of God is not limited to "one language". Each major language has the word of God - the version that God wants them to have - recognized by the same principles that lead English believers to the Standard in English - the AV.

In Jesus' Name,
