This Documentary presents comprehensive historical facts that led to the unending plethora of over 100 published versionsof the English Bible. These continual but unsuccessfulattempts to replace the King James Version KJV Bible will not succeed because GOD Himselfpreserves and protects His Holy Scriptures from all heresy, blasphemy, compromise and confusion.
THE BEST ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE:
GOD’S WORD (Immutable, Unchanged and Unchangeable, God breathed, Self-Authenticating. Providentially Preserved and Protected. Forever Settled in Heaven, Psalm 119:89) The Authorized King James Bible
Which Bible Is The Best? David Hocking (57 min)
Verdict (8 min.) The problem is not with translating the Bible into the English language. The problem occurs and continues to exist due to additional erroneous and sometimes heretical Greek texts that are created by men who believe themselves competent, authorized and meet [perfectly matched] scribes of The LORD to influence and therefore change the Word of God.
To believe God’s Word is unsettled is folly because
For ever, O Lord, thy Word is settled in heaven. Psalms 119:89
[The Textus Receptus (Received Text) was rendered from 5,321 extant Greek manuscripts known as the Majority Text MT. These manuscripts agree overwhelmingly [99%] with one
another, are inerrant and do not contain any of the heretical biases found in the Greek Text created by Westcott & Hort, Nestle & Aland or the Codices Vaticanus and Sinaiticus.
The Foundational support of these Greek Texts rest upon only 45 hand-picked manuscripts from the extant Majority Text instead of all 5,321.

PRAYER 10, Part 1of 9: THE MUSIC OF PRAISE.
ANECDOTE 202: A Sure Pardon.
FAITH’S CHECKBOOK: February 19 BETTER FARTHER ON
Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more —
A SINNER’S PRAYER:
PRAYER 10, Part 1 of 9
THE MUSIC OF PRAISE.
O THOU blessed God, we must be helped of Thy Spirit or we cannot worship Thee aright [in the right way]. Behold the holy angels adore Thee, and the hosts redeemed by blood bring everlasting Hallelujahs to Thy feet. What are we, the creatures of a day, polluted with sin, that we should think that: we can praise thee? And yet the music of praise were not [would not be] complete if Thy children did not join in it, even those of them [we] who are still in this world below. Help us, then; enable us to tune our harps and to fetch forth music from our spirit.
Verily, Lord, if there are any creatures in the world that can praise Thee we ought to do so. Each one among us feels that he has some special reason for gratitude [being thankful]. Lord, it is an unspeakable mercy to know Thee — to know Thee as our reconciled God, to know Thee as our Father in Christ Jesus, who has forgiven us all our trespasses.
Oh! it is unspeakably sweet to come and rest in Thee, and to know that there is now no cause of quarrel [contentions] between us and Thee; on the contrary, that we are bound to one another by a covenant which in infinite tenderness and mercy Thou hast [have] made, that Thy people might have strong consolation [comfort], and might boldly take hold on Thee in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
(Attachment: PRAYER 10.doc)
ANECDOTE 202: A Sure Pardon.
In the reign of King George the Third, the son of a member of this church lay under sentence of death for forgery. My predecessor, Dr. Rippon, (Click for remarkable biographical summary) after incredible exertions, obtained a promise that his sentence should be remitted. By a singular occurrence, the present senior deacon then a young man learned from the governor of the jail that the reprieve had not been received; and the unhappy prisoner would have been executed the next morning, had not Dr. Rippon gone post-haste [immediately] to Windsor, obtained an interview with the king in his bedchamber, and received from the monarch’s own hand a copy of that reprieve which had been negligently put aside by a thoughtless “speed” [the negligent messenger] .
“I charge you, doctor,” said his majesty, “to make good speed.” “Trust me, sire, for that,” responded your old pastor, and he returned to London in time, just in time, and only just in time, for the prisoner was being marched with many others on to the scaffold. Ay, that pardon might have been given, and yet the man might have been executed if it had not been effectually carried out.
But, blessed be God, our non-condemnation is an effectual thing. It is not a matter of letter [in need of being written], it is a matter of fact. Ah, poor souls, you know that condemnation is a matter of fact. When you and I suffered in our souls, and were brought under the heavy hand of the law, we felt that its curses were no [not] mock thunders like the wrath of the Vatican, but they were real; we felt that the anger of God was indeed a thing to tremble at; a real substantial fact.
Now, just as real as the condemnation which Justice brings, just so real is the justification which mercy bestows.
FAITH’S CHECKBOOK February 19 BETTER FARTHER ON by C.H. Spurgeon 1834—1892
Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more — Nahum 1:12
-Bien que te he afligido, no mas te afligiré- Nahum 1:12
There is a limit to affliction. God sends it and God removes it. Do you sigh, and say -When will the end be? Remember that our griefs will surely and finally end when this poor earthly life is over. Let us quietly wait, and patiently endure the will of the Lord till He cometh [comes].
Meanwhile, our Father in Heaven takes away the rod [punishment] when His design [reason] in using it is fully served. When He has whipped away our folly [foolishness], there will be no more strokes [given]. Or, if the affliction is sent for testing us, that our graces may glorify God, it will end when the Lord has made us bear witness, to His praise.
We would not wish the affliction to depart till God has gotten out of us all the honor which we can possibly yield Him. There may today be -a great calm.-
Who knows how soon those raging billows [stormy waves] will give place to a sea of glass, and the sea birds sit on the gentle waves?
After long tribulation the flail [a hand tool for threshing grain] is hung up, and the wheat rests in the garner [storehouse]. We may, before many hours are past, be just as happy as now we are sorrowful. It is not hard for the Lord to turn night into day. He that sends the clouds can as easily clear the skies. Let us be of good cheer. It is better on before [ahead]. Let us sing Hallelujah by anticipation.
Prayer: Thank you Lord that Your affliction never exceeds Your perfect justice and will come to an end when your good purpose in us is fulfilled so not one single stroke more will come. Help us to worship You in Spirit and in Truth and to be assured and comforted by this promise in Jesus name I pray, Amen.
MORNING February 19
"Thus saith [says] the Lord God; I will yet for this be enquired of [prayed to]
by the house of Israel [God’s chosen], to do it for them." —Ezekiel 36:37
Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Aun seré solicitado de la casa de Israel,
para hacerles esto: Ezequiel 36:37
PRAYER is the forerunner [predecessor] of mercy. Turn to sacred history, and you will find that scarcely ever did a great mercy come to this world unheralded [unannounced] by supplication [prayer to God]. You have found this true in your own personal experience. God has given you many an unsolicited favor, but still great prayer has always been the prelude of great mercy with you.
When you first found peace through the blood of the cross, you had been praying much, and earnestly interceding with God that He would remove your doubts, and deliver you from your distresses. Your assurance was the result of prayer. When at any time you have had high and rapturous joys, you have been obliged to look upon them as answers to your prayers. When you have had great deliverances out of sore [intense] troubles and mighty helps in great dangers, you have been able to say,
"I sought the Lord, and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears."
Prayer is always the preface to blessing. It goes before the blessing as the blessing's shadow. When the sun light of God's mercies rises upon our necessities, it casts the shadow of prayer far down upon the plain.
Or, to use another illustration, when God piles up a hill of mercies He Himself shines behind them, and He casts on our spirits the shadow of prayer so that we may rest certain, if we are much in prayer, our pleadings are the shadows of mercy. Prayer is thus connected with the blessing to show us the value of it. If we had the blessings without asking for them, we should think them common things; but prayer makes our mercies more precious than diamonds.
The things we ask for are precious, but we do not realize their preciousness until we have sought for them earnestly [in fervent prayer].
Prayer makes the darken'd cloud withdraw;
Prayer climbs the ladder [to heaven] Jacob saw;
Gives exercise to faith and love;
Brings every blessing from above.
EVENING February 19
"He first findeth his own brother, Simon. "—John 1:41
─Este halló primero á su hermano Simón, —Juan 1:41
THIS case is an excellent pattern of all cases where spiritual life is vigorous. As soon as a man has found Christ, he begins to find others. I will not believe that you have tasted of the honey of the gospel if you can eat it all yourself [and by yourself]. True grace puts an end to all spiritual monopoly.
Andrew first found [and told] his own brother Simon [Peter], and then others. Relationship has a very strong demand upon our first individual efforts. Andrew did well to begin with Simon. I doubt whether there are not some Christians giving away tracts at other people's houses who would do well to give away a tract at their own [house], whether there are not some engaged in works of usefulness abroad who are neglecting their special sphere of usefulness at home.
You may or may not be called to evangelize the people in any particular locality, but certainly you are called to see after your own servants [household] , your own kinsfolk and acquaintances. Let your religion begin at home.
Many tradesmen export their best commodities—the Christian should not. He should have all his conversation everywhere of the best savor [taste]; but let him have a care to put forth the sweetest fruit of spiritual life and testimony in his own family.
When Andrew went to find his brother, he little imagined how eminent Simon would become. Simon Peter was worth ten Andrews so far as we can gather from sacred history, and yet Andrew was instrumental in bringing him to Jesus. You may be very deficient in talent yourself, and yet you may be the means of drawing to Christ one who shall become eminent [a leader] in grace and service.
Dear friend, you little know the possibilities that are in you. You may but speak a word to a child, and in that child there may be slumbering a noble heart which will stir the Christian church in years to come. Andrew has only two talents, but he finds Peter.
Go and do likewise.
SINNER’S PRAYER (FOR WHOSOEVER):
Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:21
Pray and call on the name of the Lord Jesus and be saved … won’t you?
“Lord Jesus, I’m a lost sinner hopeless without You. I would never be able to save myself. Without your death on the cross to pay my sin debt I would be condemned to spend eternity condemned in Hell. By nature and practice I am a natural-born sinner. I’m totally depraved and I sin because I am a sinner. Please forgive me.
I realize that doing my best or being as good as possible, or being better than other people or having good excuses can never save me.
I look to You, alone Lord Jesus to save me.
I call on You, by name, Lord Jesus, right now to save me. You died on the cross in my place to pay for my sin. Your Word says, “It shall come to pass that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:21. Thank You, Lord.
Right now, I surrender my sinful self to You, just as I am, Lord Jesus. I trust You to forgive me and save me and be my Lord and Savior.
Please forgive me for all my sins. I’m sorry for every sin (bad thoughts, words and things I have done) and look to You to forgive me of them all. I need your strength to overcome sin’s temptations. Thank you for forgiving me.
You paid the price for all of my sins by dying on the cross.
Thank you Lord Jesus that You loved me and died for me before I was born and that You still love me.
Thank you, Heavenly Father, that You have made the way to save me and have drawn me away from sin and death into Life in Your only begotten son, the Lord Jesus. He took my place, suffered and died for punishment that I deserved.
Thank You, Heavenly Father that you raised Jesus from the dead. He is ALIVE and in Him we are victorious over sin, death and the grave. In Christ Jesus there is therefore now no condemnation.
Thank You for saving me heavenly Father and for the Holy Spirit you will send for my guidance, comfort and solemn instruction into all truth, Amen.”
With all my heart, I thank you Lord Jesus for saving me. In your name, Lord Jesus I pray, Amen.

… and pray for souls to be saved and believers to be strengthened
The Lord … is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9
Pray also that believers will be led… led by the Holy Spirit to rightly divide and proclaim God’s Word providentially protected and preserved by God, Himself.
John 3:16:
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
This KJV Translation is from the Textus Receptus (TR) [Received Text] and is rendered from the 5,321 extant Greek manuscript texts known as The Majority Text MT. The Majority texts are in substantial and overwhelming agreement (99%) with each other and avoid heretical, secular biases, ambiguities or unsupported primary Greek source texts of the variant readings in codices Alexandrinus, Sinaiticus and Vaticanus [from the Vatican]. These inferior Greek translations along with those invented by Westcott & Hort and Nestle & Aland conspire to create many weakened variant readings agreed to in most modern Bible Translations.
There is substantial disagreement and missing texts among these Greek codices and translations which do not agree with one another, and are created from incomplete codex fragments and introduce the modern biblical criticism theory that embraces ambiguities, uncertainties and variant readings [multiple interpretations]. These are found in a multitude of new English translations and contain doctrinal compromises that nuance-away or otherwise diminish the highest glory due to God Almighty. The TR is the original primary New Testament Greek source of the Authorized King James Translation and it is the ONLY ENGLISH translation that comes directly and exclusively from the providentially protected, preserved and inspired [God Breathed] Textus Receptus.
For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in Heaven. Psalm 119:89
God is not the author of confusion. 1 Corinthians 4:33
God, Himself, providentially protects and preserves His WORD. All of His Word is inspired, [God-breathed], self-authenticating, immutable [unchanging and unchangeable], eternal, inerrant, infallible, infinite and all-powerful [omnipotent] Word.

SPECIAL SPURGEON SERMON: “Why Men Cannot Believe in Christ”
[Christ Jesus]

Note: This Sermon was referenced in the Men’s Bible Study on Wednesday, August 14th 2024 at South Shores Church and is featured here as an unabridged Audio recording of Sermon # 1245 that was preached originally by Charles Spurgeon in 1875 from his home church, The Metropolitan Tabernacle, London, U.K.
_____________________________________
Can You trust this website?
Is it of God?
Is it trustworthy?
Beloved ones, don’t be believing every spirit [everything you hear] but [continually] be testing the spirit whether it is of God: because many false prophets have come out in the world. Here’s how you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit [voice] that confesseth [confesses, says] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh, having come out of God, is of God: and every spirit [voice] that confesseth not [doesn't confess] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
Hence, I confess [declare and affirm] "Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh."
___________________________________________________________________
He has always existed from eternity past [FOREVER] as the WORD of God. John 1:1-2
And He was born of a virgin 2,024 years ago in Bethlehem, the WORD made flesh,
is alive today, and is coming soon for His *bride, the Church
[*All redeemed believers].
"And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:
God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit,
believed on in the world, received up into glory."
Let me invite you to trust in the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord and to publicly confess [declare] Him as such before men [publicly]. He will therefore be able to acknowledge and confess you before His Father in Heaven. He is The God of Abraham. Isaac and Jacob. Following your public confession, You also invited to follow Him in believer’s baptism.
Jesus came from Galilee t o Jordan to be baptized by John the Baptist. But, John forbad [refused] Him and said, “I have need to be baptized of You and [yet] you are coming to me?” [for baptism] And Jesus answering him said, “Suffer it to be so [Allow this]: for thus it becometh [is fitting and right for] us to fulfil all righteousness.”
Baptism is not required for salvation. Remember, what Jesus said to the thief on the cross, who acknowledged Jesus’ innocence by saying to him:
“Remember me when you come into your kingdom.”
And then, Jesus said to him:
“Verily [Truly] I say to you, Today you shall be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:43
Baptism pictures the Lord’s death, burial and resurrection and the believer being Born Again.
It bears witness to the truth John the Baptist preached that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand requiring Repentance from sin and the Baptism of atonement. Therefore, the act of baptism is not required for salvation but it needed is an act of obedience to fulfil all righteousness.
Romans 6:3-5:
3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection.

_____________________________________
Jesus Christ [Messiah- Anointed King] has always existed, from eternity past [FOREVER] as the WORD of God. John 1:1-2
He was born of a virgin 2,025 years ago in Bethlehem, the WORD made flesh,
is alive today, and is coming soon for His *bride, the Church
[*All redeemed believers].
"And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:
God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit,
believed on in the world, received up into glory."
You’re invited to receive the Lord Jesus Christ [The Messiah] as your Savior and Lord and to publicly confess your trust in Him so He will then be able to acknowledge you before His Father, The God of Abraham. Isaac and Jacob. Jesus answered him and said, “Suffer it to be so [to let this happen]: for thus it becometh [is in accord with] us to fulfil all righteousness.”
Following the Lord Jesus Christ in His purpose for us is our desire. We trust Him for our salvation, guidance, strength and our eternal destiny. We desire to and will, with His help, follow Him in soul winning by use of DailySpurgeon or any instrumentality He may bestow. We invite and encourage non-believers to turn away from sin, look to Him and be saved.
We trust that believers (old and new) will benefit in knowing that He will sustain, guide and build us up as we are being conformed to the image of Christ Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit.
DailySpurgeon.com website consists of devotional writings, prayers, sacred music and sermons by Charles Haddon Spurgeon and the current Pastor ofThe Metropolitan Tabernacle Peter Masters, who rightly proclaim God’s Word.

Is this website dailyspurgeon.com trustworthy?
Is it true? Is it of God?
We should apply the following Scripture to everything we hear/read to discern whether what we are hearing or reading is of God and therefore whether or not it should be believed.
1 John 4:1-3 Beloved ones, don’t be believing every spirit [word] you hear but be testing the spirits [words] whether they are of God: because many false prophets have gone out into the world. Here’s how you know if it is the Spirit [voice] of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh, having come from God, is of God: and every spirit that confesses not that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
Therefore beloved, we must test every voice [written or spoken] to discern whether it is from God or not. By applying these scripture verses we can determine with certainty if the scriptural standard that protects believers from believing false prophets has been met. We can thereby identify false witnesses and determine not to believe or follow them. The voice [spirit] being tested should not be believed unless it confesses [states] that…
“Jesus Christ is here, in the flesh having come from God .”
The Two New Testiment Greek Texts that were created by Westcott & Hort and Nestle & Aland do not make this 1 John 4:1-4confession nor do they follow the Textus Receptus rendered from 5,321 extant Greek manuscripts, which agree overwhelmingly [99%] with each other known as as the Majority Text. The 5,321 Majority Text Manuscripts are the source from which the trusted Textus Receptus was rendered.
Instead, these two purveyors of Greek texts used their own Greek translations that they created by hand picking only 45 of the 5,321extant Greek manuscripts. When these 45 Manuscripts were silent as to the text being translated, they simply inserted their own invented and unfounded Greek text.
This invented Greek translation presented variant readings different than the Textus Receptus [Received Text] in many places. One example from 1 John, Chapter 4 where all English translations other than the King James version overlook the original Greek verb “ictin” [To be] [is] (third person singular) that is translated in substantially all Majority Texts MT and subsequently in the Textus Receptus [Received Text] and therefore have failed to correctly translate the Greek verb as, “Is come” [Is here]. (correctly Translated from the Textus Receptus [Received Text (TR)] in the King James Version)
This error occurs because the modern critical Greek text, created by Westcott & Hort and Nestles & Alland DO NOT follow the MT [Majority Texts] of 5,321 Greek manuscripts that affirm substantial agreement with one another. The TR [Textus Receptus] is rendered from an overwhelming agreement found among the Majority Text of 5,321 primary Greek manuscript sources.
Both Westcott & Hort and Nestles & Alland ignore the verb “is”, from their invented Greek text and place “has come” instead.
This error may be legally described as res ipsa loquitur a latin phrase that means “the thing speaks for itself”.
Therefore, the Greek inventions generated by these two sources are not actually translations, even though they are introduced as translations, but actually represent their own Greek language inventions unsupported by the reliability of the Majority Texts and the Textus Receptus.
How do we know?
We know because both non-believers and false prophets assert that Jesus Christ
“has come” in the flesh.
Practically anyone can make this confession as the birth of Jesus Christ is considered by historians to be the most well documented fact in all of human history.
That He has come is generally acknowledged by nonbelievers and believers alike. However, here’s the point. There is a huge difference in meaning between “Has come” and “Is Here”. “Has come” is woefully short of the essential and clear meaning of the confession “Is Here”.
Just because something “has come” it can not be assumed, inferred or deduced that it also “is here”.
The “has come” assertion is generally held. It is not, per se, a false statement. Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. However, this falls short of presenting a logical rubric to discern whether the sprit [voice] being tested [tried] is from God or from false prophets in the spirit of antichrist.
Again, the expression “has come” rather than “is come” [is here] is not, per se a false statement.
However, it fails to deliver a valid hypothesis, by which spiritual understanding can be discerned. The failure is in establishing a logical and rhetorically sound rubric by which discernment can be rendered as to the question of whether spirits [words] are from God or from false prophets or the spirit of antichrist.
Actually, when the term “has come” is used it is true. However, this wide-spread belief held to be historically correct by practically everyone, does not provide a sound rubric or standard with which to discern whether a voice [spoken or written words] are from God or the spirit of Antichrist.
Almost anyone [or any voice] can declare that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh. But as you can see, this does not provide any discernment as to whether something should or should not be believed as being from God and therefore as true and to be believed and followed.
Why? Once again, because almost anyone can and often does confess that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh. But, this is an insufficient standard by which discernment can be rightly judged. The standard in God’s Word is whether the confession that Jesus is here, per se, is being made, yes or no. This confession gives an efficacious standard to discern truth from error.
Again, while it is true that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh, this alone is inadequate to discern truth from error. “Has come” does not mean the same thing as “is come [is here], from God, in the flesh” and therefore fails to be valid for true spiritual discernment.
For further understanding , we compare Scripture with scripture in 1 John 4:1-3 and Ephesians 5:30-32
we comprehend God’s message regarding the body of Jesus Christ being in the Flesh vis-à-vis The Body of Christ, The Corporate Church.
Compare Scripture with Scripture: 1 John 4:1-3 with Ephesians 5:30-32
1 John 4:1-3 Authorized (King James) Version
4 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 and every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
Ephesians 5:30-32
Authorized (King James) Version
30 for we are members of his [Jesus Christ’s] body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
[So, we are flesh and bone members of His body, We are] one flesh with Him, The Body of Christ is (In the flesh); and is the incarnate Body of believers.
He was born of a virgin 2025 years ago and He’s alive today.
He’s coming again soon, for His bride; the Church [Blood-bought, Born-again members of His body].
When a believer considers the fact that they are members of the body of Christ [The Church] , they will see and acknowledge that…
“Jesus Christ is here, from God, in the flesh,” because We are the Body of Christ; The Church, in the flesh!
Amen.

THE BEST BIBLE TRANSLATION:
Why The KING JAMES is Best by Steven Houck
Even though [some misinformed Bible readers believe] the King James Version has its weaknesses, it is an excellent translation and by far the best version [and the version most in demand today]. We must not be taken in by the modern versions and their claims. Our 400 years old Bible is to be preferred above all others because it is better than them all.
1) It was translated by men who are unsurpassed in their knowledge of Biblical studies.
2) The translators were pious men of God who believed in the inspiration of the Holy Scriptures.
3) It is the mature fruit of generations of English translations as well as the careful work of its translators.
4) The King James Version is based upon the Received Text rather than the critical Greek text of modern versions. [vis. Sinaiticus and Vaticanus.]
5) It is a word-for-word translation which faithfully and accurately reflects the originals [of the Majority Texts, MT].
6) The language is one of reverence and respect which gives honor [and greater glory] to the majesty of its Author.
7) Of all the English versions of today, it alone is the Bible of the Reformation.
8) Our spiritual forefathers thought so highly of it that they were willing to suffer and even die for it.
9) It is the version which has been recognized for generations and generations as the Bible God has given to His English-speaking Church.
[A 10th reason why it is best is added here by DailySpurgeon.com]
10) The KJV is the work of 54 translators selected and organized into seven companies. (2), from Westminster (2), from Cambridge, (2), from Oxford and (1) from London. The work was done openly allowing each company to receive inquiries or comments during the course of the work. When an issue of disagreement arose, it was addressed in Prayer and discussion was continued until the difference was resolved unanimously and without objection.
BEST ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE:
GOD’S WORD (Immutable, God breathed, Self-Authenticating. Providentially Protected and Preserved and Forever Settled in Heaven, Psalm 119:89) The Authorized King James Bible
Commitment to the Word of God
Long before the Conservative Resurgence, Dr. R.G. Lee was the Southern Baptist champion of biblical infallibility and inerrancy. In his sermon, “The Word of God – Not Broken and Not Bound,” first published in 1930, Dr. Lee proclaimed, “All who wrote are immortalized by their writing of this great Book [The Holy Bible],
… “supernatural in origin, divine in authorship, human in penmanship, infallible in authority, infinite in scope, universal in interest, personal in application, regenerative in power, inspired [God breathed] in totality.”
Dr Robert G. Lee preached a sermon Payday Someday over 1,000 times and was the Senior Pastor of one of the first Megachurches, Bellevue Baptist Church, Memphis, Tennessee,

DEVOTION for February 19th *A.D. 2025 Written and calendared for this exact date by Charles Haddon Spurgeon 1834-1892.
*A.D. Does NOT mean after death as is commonly believed. It is a Latin abbreviation
for anno Domani (It means “Year of our Lord”.
BC/AD versus BCE/CE Is there a difference?​
Yes. Stand for the Truth, Won’t you?
Jesus Christ [Messiah] (Anointed King)] the LORD GOD was born of a virgin 2025 years ago, was crucified, then rose from the dead, victorious over sin, death and the grave and is here in the flesh from GOD as His Church, The Body of Christ and will live forever, time without end and He, Himself, is coming again.

(2 hrs. 49 mins.)
This Documentary presents comprehensive historical facts that led to the unending plethora of over 100 published versionsof the English Bible. These continual but unsuccessfulattempts to replace the King James Version KJV Bible will not succeed because GOD Himselfpreserves and protects His Holy Scriptures from all heresy, blasphemy, compromise and confusion.
THE BEST ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE:
GOD’S WORD (Immutable, Unchanged and Unchangeable, God breathed, Self-Authenticating. Providentially Preserved and Protected. Forever Settled in Heaven, Psalm 119:89) The Authorized King James Bible
Which Bible Is The Best? David Hocking (57 min)
Verdict (8 min.) The problem is not with translating the Bible into the English language. The problem occurs and continues to exist due to additional erroneous and sometimes heretical Greek texts that are created by men who believe themselves competent, authorized and meet [perfectly matched] scribes of The LORD to influence and therefore change the Word of God.
To believe God’s Word is unsettled is folly because
For ever, O Lord, thy Word is settled in heaven. Psalms 119:89
[The Textus Receptus (Received Text) was rendered from 5,321 extant Greek manuscripts known as the Majority Text MT. These manuscripts agree overwhelmingly [99%] with one
another, are inerrant and do not contain any of the heretical biases found in the Greek Text created by Westcott & Hort, Nestle & Aland or the Codices Vaticanus and Sinaiticus.
The Foundational support of these Greek Texts rest upon only 45 hand-picked manuscripts from the extant Majority Text instead of all 5,321.

A SINNER’S PRAYER:
PRAYER 10, Part 1 of 9
THE MUSIC OF PRAISE.
O THOU blessed God, we must be helped of Thy Spirit or we cannot worship Thee aright [in the right way]. Behold the holy angels adore Thee, and the hosts redeemed by blood bring everlasting Hallelujahs to Thy feet. What are we, the creatures of a day, polluted with sin, that we should think that: we can praise thee? And yet the music of praise were not [would not be] complete if Thy children did not join in it, even those of them [we] who are still in this world below. Help us, then; enable us to tune our harps and to fetch forth music from our spirit.
Verily, Lord, if there are any creatures in the world that can praise Thee we ought to do so. Each one among us feels that he has some special reason for gratitude [being thankful]. Lord, it is an unspeakable mercy to know Thee — to know Thee as our reconciled God, to know Thee as our Father in Christ Jesus, who has forgiven us all our trespasses.
Oh! it is unspeakably sweet to come and rest in Thee, and to know that there is now no cause of quarrel [contentions] between us and Thee; on the contrary, that we are bound to one another by a covenant which in infinite tenderness and mercy Thou hast [have] made, that Thy people might have strong consolation [comfort], and might boldly take hold on Thee in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.

ANECDOTE 202: A Sure Pardon.
In the reign of King George the Third, the son of a member of this church lay under sentence of death for forgery. My predecessor, Dr. Rippon, (Click for remarkable biographical summary) after incredible exertions, obtained a promise that his sentence should be remitted. By a singular occurrence, the present senior deacon then a young man learned from the governor of the jail that the reprieve had not been received; and the unhappy prisoner would have been executed the next morning, had not Dr. Rippon gone post-haste [immediately] to Windsor, obtained an interview with the king in his bedchamber, and received from the monarch’s own hand a copy of that reprieve which had been negligently put aside by a thoughtless “speed” [the negligent messenger] .
“I charge you, doctor,” said his majesty, “to make good speed.” “Trust me, sire, for that,” responded your old pastor, and he returned to London in time, just in time, and only just in time, for the prisoner was being marched with many others on to the scaffold. Ay, that pardon might have been given, and yet the man might have been executed if it had not been effectually carried out.
But, blessed be God, our non-condemnation is an effectual thing. It is not a matter of letter [in need of being written], it is a matter of fact. Ah, poor souls, you know that condemnation is a matter of fact. When you and I suffered in our souls, and were brought under the heavy hand of the law, we felt that its curses were no [not] mock thunders like the wrath of the Vatican, but they were real; we felt that the anger of God was indeed a thing to tremble at; a real substantial fact.
Now, just as real as the condemnation which Justice brings, just so real is the justification which mercy bestows.
FAITH’S CHECKBOOK February 19 BETTER FARTHER ON by C.H. Spurgeon 1834—1892
Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more — Nahum 1:12
-Bien que te he afligido, no mas te afligiré- Nahum 1:12
There is a limit to affliction. God sends it and God removes it. Do you sigh, and say -When will the end be? Remember that our griefs will surely and finally end when this poor earthly life is over. Let us quietly wait, and patiently endure the will of the Lord till He cometh [comes].
Meanwhile, our Father in Heaven takes away the rod [punishment] when His design [reason] in using it is fully served. When He has whipped away our folly [foolishness], there will be no more strokes [given]. Or, if the affliction is sent for testing us, that our graces may glorify God, it will end when the Lord has made us bear witness, to His praise.
We would not wish the affliction to depart till God has gotten out of us all the honor which we can possibly yield Him. There may today be -a great calm.-
Who knows how soon those raging billows [stormy waves] will give place to a sea of glass, and the sea birds sit on the gentle waves?
After long tribulation the flail [a hand tool for threshing grain] is hung up, and the wheat rests in the garner [storehouse]. We may, before many hours are past, be just as happy as now we are sorrowful. It is not hard for the Lord to turn night into day. He that sends the clouds can as easily clear the skies. Let us be of good cheer. It is better on before [ahead]. Let us sing Hallelujah by anticipation.
Prayer: Thank you Lord that Your affliction never exceeds Your perfect justice and will come to an end when your good purpose in us is fulfilled so not one single stroke more will come. Help us to worship You in Spirit and in Truth and to be assured and comforted by this promise in Jesus name I pray, Amen.
MORNING February 19
"Thus saith [says] the Lord God; I will yet for this be enquired of [prayed to]
by the house of Israel [God’s chosen], to do it for them." —Ezekiel 36:37
Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Aun seré solicitado de la casa de Israel,
para hacerles esto: Ezequiel 36:37
PRAYER is the forerunner [predecessor] of mercy. Turn to sacred history, and you will find that scarcely ever did a great mercy come to this world unheralded [unannounced] by supplication [prayer to God]. You have found this true in your own personal experience. God has given you many an unsolicited favor, but still great prayer has always been the prelude of great mercy with you.
When you first found peace through the blood of the cross, you had been praying much, and earnestly interceding with God that He would remove your doubts, and deliver you from your distresses. Your assurance was the result of prayer. When at any time you have had high and rapturous joys, you have been obliged to look upon them as answers to your prayers. When you have had great deliverances out of sore [intense] troubles and mighty helps in great dangers, you have been able to say,
"I sought the Lord, and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears."
Prayer is always the preface to blessing. It goes before the blessing as the blessing's shadow. When the sun light of God's mercies rises upon our necessities, it casts the shadow of prayer far down upon the plain.
Or, to use another illustration, when God piles up a hill of mercies He Himself shines behind them, and He casts on our spirits the shadow of prayer so that we may rest certain, if we are much in prayer, our pleadings are the shadows of mercy. Prayer is thus connected with the blessing to show us the value of it. If we had the blessings without asking for them, we should think them common things; but prayer makes our mercies more precious than diamonds.
The things we ask for are precious, but we do not realize their preciousness until we have sought for them earnestly [in fervent prayer].
Prayer makes the darken'd cloud withdraw;
Prayer climbs the ladder [to heaven] Jacob saw;
Gives exercise to faith and love;
Brings every blessing from above.
EVENING February 19
"He first findeth his own brother, Simon. "—John 1:41
─Este halló primero á su hermano Simón, —Juan 1:41
THIS case is an excellent pattern of all cases where spiritual life is vigorous. As soon as a man has found Christ, he begins to find others. I will not believe that you have tasted of the honey of the gospel if you can eat it all yourself [and by yourself]. True grace puts an end to all spiritual monopoly.
Andrew first found [and told] his own brother Simon [Peter], and then others. Relationship has a very strong demand upon our first individual efforts. Andrew did well to begin with Simon. I doubt whether there are not some Christians giving away tracts at other people's houses who would do well to give away a tract at their own [house], whether there are not some engaged in works of usefulness abroad who are neglecting their special sphere of usefulness at home.
You may or may not be called to evangelize the people in any particular locality, but certainly you are called to see after your own servants [household] , your own kinsfolk and acquaintances. Let your religion begin at home.
Many tradesmen export their best commodities—the Christian should not. He should have all his conversation everywhere of the best savor [taste]; but let him have a care to put forth the sweetest fruit of spiritual life and testimony in his own family.
When Andrew went to find his brother, he little imagined how eminent Simon would become. Simon Peter was worth ten Andrews so far as we can gather from sacred history, and yet Andrew was instrumental in bringing him to Jesus. You may be very deficient in talent yourself, and yet you may be the means of drawing to Christ one who shall become eminent [a leader] in grace and service.
Dear friend, you little know the possibilities that are in you. You may but speak a word to a child, and in that child there may be slumbering a noble heart which will stir the Christian church in years to come. Andrew has only two talents, but he finds Peter.
Go and do likewise.
SINNER’S PRAYER (FOR WHOSOEVER):
Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:21
Pray and call on the name of the Lord Jesus and be saved … won’t you?
“Lord Jesus, I’m a lost sinner hopeless without You. I would never be able to save myself. Without your death on the cross to pay my sin debt I would be condemned to spend eternity condemned in Hell. By nature and practice I am a natural-born sinner. I’m totally depraved and I sin because I am a sinner. Please forgive me.
I realize that doing my best or being as good as possible, or being better than other people or having good excuses can never save me.
I look to You, alone Lord Jesus to save me.
I call on You, by name, Lord Jesus, right now to save me. You died on the cross in my place to pay for my sin. Your Word says, “It shall come to pass that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:21. Thank You, Lord.
Right now, I surrender my sinful self to You, just as I am, Lord Jesus. I trust You to forgive me and save me and be my Lord and Savior.
Please forgive me for all my sins. I’m sorry for every sin (bad thoughts, words and things I have done) and look to You to forgive me of them all. I need your strength to overcome sin’s temptations. Thank you for forgiving me.
You paid the price for all of my sins by dying on the cross.
Thank you Lord Jesus that You loved me and died for me before I was born and that You still love me.
Thank you, Heavenly Father, that You have made the way to save me and have drawn me away from sin and death into Life in Your only begotten son, the Lord Jesus. He took my place, suffered and died for punishment that I deserved.
Thank You, Heavenly Father that you raised Jesus from the dead. He is ALIVE and in Him we are victorious over sin, death and the grave. In Christ Jesus there is therefore now no condemnation.
Thank You for saving me heavenly Father and for the Holy Spirit you will send for my guidance, comfort and solemn instruction into all truth, Amen.”
With all my heart, I thank you Lord Jesus for saving me. In your name, Lord Jesus I pray, Amen.

… and pray for souls to be saved and believers to be strengthened
The Lord … is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9
Pray also that believers will be led… led by the Holy Spirit to rightly divide and proclaim God’s Word providentially protected and preserved by God, Himself.
John 3:16:
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
This KJV Translation is from the Textus Receptus (TR) [Received Text] and is rendered from the 5,321 extant Greek manuscript texts known as The Majority Text MT. The Majority texts are in substantial and overwhelming agreement (99%) with each other and avoid heretical, secular biases, ambiguities or unsupported primary Greek source texts of the variant readings in codices Alexandrinus, Sinaiticus and Vaticanus [from the Vatican]. These inferior Greek translations along with those invented by Westcott & Hort and Nestle & Aland conspire to create many weakened variant readings agreed to in most modern Bible Translations.
There is substantial disagreement and missing texts among these Greek codices and translations which do not agree with one another, and are created from incomplete codex fragments and introduce the modern biblical criticism theory that embraces ambiguities, uncertainties and variant readings [multiple interpretations]. These are found in a multitude of new English translations and contain doctrinal compromises that nuance-away or otherwise diminish the highest glory due to God Almighty. The TR is the original primary New Testament Greek source of the Authorized King James Translation and it is the ONLY ENGLISH translation that comes directly and exclusively from the providentially protected, preserved and inspired [God Breathed] Textus Receptus.
For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in Heaven. Psalm 119:89
God is not the author of confusion. 1 Corinthians 4:33
God, Himself, providentially protects and preserves His WORD. All of His Word is inspired, [God-breathed], self-authenticating, immutable [unchanging and unchangeable], eternal, inerrant, infallible, infinite and all-powerful [omnipotent] Word.

SPECIAL SPURGEON SERMON: “Why Men Cannot Believe in Christ”
[Christ Jesus]
URL: https://youtu.be/hHF1r74XaTQ?si=czhwYSJP9H53XqCy
Note: This Sermon was referenced in the Men’s Bible Study on Wednesday, August 14th 2024 at South Shores Church and is featured here as an unabridged Audio recording of Sermon # 1245 that was preached originally by Charles Spurgeon in 1875 from his home church, The Metropolitan Tabernacle, London, U.K.
_____________________________________
Can You trust this website?
Is it of God?
Is it trustworthy?
Beloved ones, don’t be believing every spirit [everything you hear] but [continually] be testing the spirit whether it is of God: because many false prophets have come out in the world. Here’s how you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit [voice] that confesseth [confesses, says] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh, having come out of God, is of God: and every spirit [voice] that confesseth not [doesn't confess] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
Hence, I confess [declare and affirm] "Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh."
___________________________________________________________________
He has always existed from eternity past [FOREVER] as the WORD of God. John 1:1-2
And He was born of a virgin 2,024 years ago in Bethlehem, the WORD made flesh,
is alive today, and is coming soon for His *bride, the Church
[*All redeemed believers].
"And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:
God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit,
believed on in the world, received up into glory."
Let me invite you to trust in the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord and to publicly confess [declare] Him as such before men [publicly]. He will therefore be able to acknowledge and confess you before His Father in Heaven. He is The God of Abraham. Isaac and Jacob. Following your public confession, You also invited to follow Him in believer’s baptism.
Jesus came from Galilee t o Jordan to be baptized by John the Baptist. But, John forbad [refused] Him and said, “I have need to be baptized of You and [yet] you are coming to me?” [for baptism] And Jesus answering him said, “Suffer it to be so [Allow this]: for thus it becometh [is fitting and right for] us to fulfil all righteousness.”
Baptism is not required for salvation. Remember, what Jesus said to the thief on the cross, who acknowledged Jesus’ innocence by saying to him:
“Remember me when you come into your kingdom.”
And then, Jesus said to him:
“Verily [Truly] I say to you, Today you shall be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:43
Baptism pictures the Lord’s death, burial and resurrection and the believer being Born Again.
It bears witness to the truth John the Baptist preached that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand requiring Repentance from sin and the Baptism of atonement. Therefore, the act of baptism is not required for salvation but it needed is an act of obedience to fulfil all righteousness.
Romans 6:3-5:
3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection.

Is this website dailyspurgeon.com trustworthy?
Is it true? Is it of God?
We should apply the following Scripture to everything we hear/read to discern whether what we are hearing or reading is of God and therefore whether or not it should be believed.
1 John 4:1-3 Beloved ones, don’t be believing every spirit [word] you hear but be testing the spirits [words] whether they are of God: because many false prophets have gone out into the world. Here’s how you know if it is the Spirit [voice] of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh, having come from God, is of God: and every spirit that confesses not that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
Therefore beloved, we must test every voice [written or spoken] to discern whether it is from God or not. By applying these scripture verses we can determine with certainty if the scriptural standard that protects believers from believing false prophets has been met. We can thereby identify false witnesses and determine not to believe or follow them. The voice [spirit] being tested should not be believed unless it confesses [states] that…
“Jesus Christ is here, in the flesh having come from God .”
The Two New Testiment Greek Texts that were created by Westcott & Hort and Nestle & Aland do not make this 1 John 4:1-4confession nor do they follow the Textus Receptus rendered from 5,321 extant Greek manuscripts, which agree overwhelmingly [99%] with each other known as as the Majority Text. The 5,321 Majority Text Manuscripts are the source from which the trusted Textus Receptus was rendered.
Instead, these two purveyors of Greek texts used their own Greek translations that they created by hand picking only 45 of the 5,321extant Greek manuscripts. When these 45 Manuscripts were silent as to the text being translated, they simply inserted their own invented and unfounded Greek text.
This invented Greek translation presented variant readings different than the Textus Receptus [Received Text] in many places. One example from 1 John, Chapter 4 where all English translations other than the King James version overlook the original Greek verb “ictin” [To be] [is] (third person singular) that is translated in substantially all Majority Texts MT and subsequently in the Textus Receptus [Received Text] and therefore have failed to correctly translate the Greek verb as, “Is come” [Is here]. (correctly Translated from the Textus Receptus [Received Text (TR)] in the King James Version)
This error occurs because the modern critical Greek text, created by Westcott & Hort and Nestles & Alland DO NOT follow the MT [Majority Texts] of 5,321 Greek manuscripts that affirm substantial agreement with one another. The TR [Textus Receptus] is rendered from an overwhelming agreement found among the Majority Text of 5,321 primary Greek manuscript sources.
Both Westcott & Hort and Nestles & Alland ignore the verb “is”, from their invented Greek text and place “has come” instead.
This error may be legally described as res ipsa loquitur a latin phrase that means “the thing speaks for itself”.
Therefore, the Greek inventions generated by these two sources are not actually translations, even though they are introduced as translations, but actually represent their own Greek language inventions unsupported by the reliability of the Majority Texts and the Textus Receptus.
How do we know?
We know because both non-believers and false prophets assert that Jesus Christ
“has come” in the flesh.
Practically anyone can make this confession as the birth of Jesus Christ is considered by historians to be the most well documented fact in all of human history.
That He has come is generally acknowledged by nonbelievers and believers alike. However, here’s the point. There is a huge difference in meaning between “Has come” and “Is Here”. “Has come” is woefully short of the essential and clear meaning of the confession “Is Here”.
Just because something “has come” it can not be assumed, inferred or deduced that it also “is here”.
The “has come” assertion is generally held. It is not, per se, a false statement. Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. However, this falls short of presenting a logical rubric to discern whether the sprit [voice] being tested [tried] is from God or from false prophets in the spirit of antichrist.
Again, the expression “has come” rather than “is come” [is here] is not, per se a false statement.
However, it fails to deliver a valid hypothesis, by which spiritual understanding can be discerned. The failure is in establishing a logical and rhetorically sound rubric by which discernment can be rendered as to the question of whether spirits [words] are from God or from false prophets or the spirit of antichrist.
Actually, when the term “has come” is used it is true. However, this wide-spread belief held to be historically correct by practically everyone, does not provide a sound rubric or standard with which to discern whether a voice [spoken or written words] are from God or the spirit of Antichrist.
Almost anyone [or any voice] can declare that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh. But as you can see, this does not provide any discernment as to whether something should or should not be believed as being from God and therefore as true and to be believed and followed.
Why? Once again, because almost anyone can and often does confess that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh. But, this is an insufficient standard by which discernment can be rightly judged. The standard in God’s Word is whether the confession that Jesus is here, per se, is being made, yes or no. This confession gives an efficacious standard to discern truth from error.
Again, while it is true that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh, this alone is inadequate to discern truth from error. “Has come” does not mean the same thing as “is come [is here], from God, in the flesh” and therefore fails to be valid for true spiritual discernment.
For further understanding , we compare Scripture with scripture in 1 John 4:1-3 and Ephesians 5:30-32
we comprehend God’s message regarding the body of Jesus Christ being in the Flesh vis-à-vis The Body of Christ, The Corporate Church.
Compare Scripture with Scripture: 1 John 4:1-3 with Ephesians 5:30-32
1 John 4:1-3 Authorized (King James) Version
4 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 and every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
Ephesians 5:30-32
Authorized (King James) Version
30 for we are members of his [Jesus Christ’s] body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
[So, we are flesh and bone members of His body, We are] one flesh with Him, The Body of Christ is (In the flesh); and is the incarnate Body of believers.
He was born of a virgin 2025 years ago and He’s alive today.
He’s coming again soon, for His bride; the Church [Blood-bought, Born-again members of His body].
When a believer considers the fact that they are members of the body of Christ [The Church] , they will see and acknowledge that…
“Jesus Christ is here, from God, in the flesh,” because We are the Body of Christ; The Church, in the flesh!
Amen.

THE BEST BIBLE TRANSLATION:
Why The KING JAMES is Best by Steven Houck
Even though [some misinformed Bible readers believe] the King James Version has its weaknesses, it is an excellent translation and by far the best version [and the version most in demand today]. We must not be taken in by the modern versions and their claims. Our 400 years old Bible is to be preferred above all others because it is better than them all.
1) It was translated by men who are unsurpassed in their knowledge of Biblical studies.
2) The translators were pious men of God who believed in the inspiration of the Holy Scriptures.
3) It is the mature fruit of generations of English translations as well as the careful work of its translators.
4) The King James Version is based upon the Received Text rather than the critical Greek text of modern versions. [vis. Sinaiticus and Vaticanus.]
5) It is a word-for-word translation which faithfully and accurately reflects the originals [of the Majority Texts, MT].
6) The language is one of reverence and respect which gives honor [and greater glory] to the majesty of its Author.
7) Of all the English versions of today, it alone is the Bible of the Reformation.
8) Our spiritual forefathers thought so highly of it that they were willing to suffer and even die for it.
9) It is the version which has been recognized for generations and generations as the Bible God has given to His English-speaking Church.
[A 10th reason why it is best is added here by DailySpurgeon.com]
10) The KJV is the work of 54 translators selected and organized into seven companies. (2), from Westminster (2), from Cambridge, (2), from Oxford and (1) from London. The work was done openly allowing each company to receive inquiries or comments during the course of the work. When an issue of disagreement arose, it was addressed in Prayer and discussion was continued until the difference was resolved unanimously and without objection.
BEST ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE:
GOD’S WORD (Immutable, God breathed, Self-Authenticating. Providentially Protected and Preserved and Forever Settled in Heaven, Psalm 119:89) The Authorized King James Bible
Commitment to the Word of God
Long before the Conservative Resurgence, Dr. R.G. Lee was the Southern Baptist champion of biblical infallibility and inerrancy. In his sermon, “The Word of God – Not Broken and Not Bound,” first published in 1930, Dr. Lee proclaimed, “All who wrote are immortalized by their writing of this great Book [The Holy Bible],
… “supernatural in origin, divine in authorship, human in penmanship, infallible in authority, infinite in scope, universal in interest, personal in application, regenerative in power, inspired [God breathed] in totality.”
Dr Robert G. Lee preached a sermon Payday Someday over 1,000 times and was the Senior Pastor of one of the first Megachurches, Bellevue Baptist Church, Memphis, Tennessee,
SACRED LITERATURE:
ORIGINAL: The Pilgrim’s Progress Pub. by Logos,1853 from 1678 Original by John Bunyan
REVISED TEXT by Barry E. Horner: The Pilgrim’s Progrefs [sic]...
in Pilgrim’s Progress. (Tthe World’s most widely circulated Allegory by John Bunyan, also credited, by some, as being the world’s first English novel.

"Christ in us is Christ reigning." reminds me [Spurgeon's comment] of Mr. Bunyan’s picture of [the town of] Mansoul, …when the Prince Immanuel laid siege to it, and Diabolus from within the city strove to keep him out. It was a, hard time for Mansoul then; but when at last the battering rams had broken down the gates, and the silver trumpets sounded, and the prince’s captains entered the breach, then on a day the prince himself did ride down the city’s streets, while liberated citizens welcomed him with all their hearts, hung out all their streamers, and made the church towers rock again as the bells rang out merry peals [melody] , for the king himself was come. Up to the castle of the heart he rode in triumph, and took his royal throne to be henceforth the sole lord and king of the city.
Christ in you is a right royal word. Christ swaying his scepter from the center of your being over every power and faculty, desire and resolve, bringing every thought into captivity to himself, oh, this is glory begun, and the sure pledge of heaven. Oh for more of the imperial sovereignty of Jesus; it is our liberty to be absolutely under his sway.
