Aloha brother Clint,

When someone makes the statement: "there's no difference between her New Century Bible and my King James." They are only demonstrating their ignorance. First off: all of the modern Bibles have a "Copyright" - which not only means that the Publishers are claiming "exclusive rights" to God's Holy words ; but every book that has a "copyright" must be (by law) approximately 7% different than any other book, which, simply put, means that not only is the the New Century version "different" from the King James Bible - it is DIFFERENT from every other "bible" out on the MARKET! Ignorance is bliss!

There is no "copyright" on the King James Bible, unless a Publisher prints "references", "concordances", "helps" (?), etc. along with the text, in which case they can claim a "copyright" on their material, but NOT on the Holy words of God! All of the modern versions have a "copyright" on the "TEXT" of their so-called bibles.

There is a lot of information out there (in books, booklets, pamphlets, web pages, etc.) on the King James Bible issue (i.e. "Which Bible"). The following web pages and information may be of some help to you:

RECOMMENDED WEB PAGES

{Diligent's (Brandon Stagg's) page - Checkout "Westcott & Hort's Magic Marker Binge"}
http://www.geocities.com/brandplucked/ {Will Kinney's Page}
http://www.preservedwords.com/
http://www.kjv1611.org.uk/
http://www.thywordistruthkjv.com/ {my personal page}

There is enough information on the web pages cited above to keep someone occupied for months (possibly years).

The following is a recommended list of Authors of books covering the subject "Which Bible":

IN THE PAST:
John W. Burgon, Edward Miller, F. H. Scrivener, Herman Hoskier, Bishop Wordsworth, Canon Cook, Sir Robert Anderson, Philip Mauro, Joseph C. Philpot, George Sayles Bishop, Benjamin C. Wilkinson, Robert Dick Wilson Edward F. Hills and David Otis Fuller.

PRESENT DAY:
J.J Ray, Terence H. Brown, Henry Coray, Zane C. Hodges, Alfred Martin, Peter S. Ruckman, David Fountain, Gordon P. Gardiner, Wilbur N. Pickering, Donald T. Clarke, Bruce Cummins, Dick Cimino, Barry Burton, Perry F. Rockwood, , Billy Bartlett, Larry Bartlett Herbert Noe, William P. Grady, Thomas Holland, Floyd Nolan Jones, Lawrence M. Vance, Kent Brandenburg, Douglas T. Stauffer, and Michael Maynard. {I personally recommend "Forever Settled" by Dr. Jack Moorman as an excellent "first book" - if you have never studied this issue in depth.}

Some of the aforementioned authors may not be KJB all the way, but they will be helpful in your search for information in trying to determine the TRUTH of this issue.

May God bless your endeavors on His behalf, and always keep in mind:

Psalms 33:4 For the word of the LORD is right; and all his works are done in truth.
