The rules for capitalizing pronouns when referring to God have changed since the printing of the KJB. If you are writing/typing the words "he/his/him" and referring to God, then based on modern accepted rules of English, the pronouns should be capitalized. The "B" in Bible follows the same rule. It shows respect. Now some do not capitalize the "b" when referring to other books besides the KJB. I consider that a personal preference, because the rule has to do with respect. Note that the word "bible" itself is borrowed for other non-religious uses, such as "The Plumber's Bible", etc.

I never capitalize the "s" in satan when I use the name, just to diss him.
