Read Me --
Hey there, guess this fits in the general area. I keep testament of the King James Bible & found this place to be a good reference website for words & definitions that help me in my study. Curious to meet some new faces that follow the words of our Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ.
Yea, I only keep the King James. I would keep the hebrew if I could, but I'm not good with other languages other than english. |

Psalms 12:6-7 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever. |

Welcome to the forums brother Shofar. I myself have not been here for long, but do feel right at home in this forum. I pray you get to feel the same way as I. It is my advice that you stick to the King James Authorized Version as your main version for Bible study and growing in the LORD. The Authorized Version is the perfect word of GOD written in English but if you feel you must posses the original language Testaments, I recommend you do get the Hebrew Old Testament and the Greek New Testament (I noticed you mentioned you had a Hebrew New Testament). The reason I recommend the Greek New Testament (which is the original language for the New Testament) is that you don't get caught up by the Hebrew Roots Movement heresy like I almost did myself. I also recommend you be careful which ones you get since they are corrupted text out there known as the Alexandrian text. Be careful and do some research, and I'm also sure that they're brothers in Christ here that will explain with more detail if you ask. Finally, brother I going to ask you out of curiosity (because of you avatar), are you from Jewish decent?

Quite true, but looking things up in either Greek or Hebrew can also be helpful, at times.

I think that Stephen brings up one of the problems of being KJBO. I think some people, especially non-English speaking people are offended, thinking that somehow the English speaking people are implying that they hold special favor with God.
Now, I have my own theory on this, JUST A THEORY. I could be wrong. After the King James Bible, Britain became the most vast empire in all human history. This map shows all the lands under Britain at it's peak. And I think this is why God brought about the KJB, to spread the true Word of God to the entire world. It is not because the English speaking people are favored by God more than non-English speaking peoples, but God knew the British Empire would extend across the world. |
