King James Version 1611
We at Amazing Grace Baptist Church use the King James Version. Some people are under the impression that we use only the 1611, just because of a title page. I have no problem using the 1611 but we don't. I don't believe I say any where on this site that we use the KJV 1611 Only. I do say that we are KJV Only and that is totally different. That does not mean that we are against other Bibles written in other languages such as French, Spanish, Russian, etc that are based on the ORIGINAL TR (not the corrupt TR that we have today that came from Westcott and Hort) that the 1611 translators had or the KJB itself. We also support earlier versions that came before the KJV 1611 such as Tyndale, as well as some others. We are not a TR church, but a KJB church. Many KJB believers who carry a KJB are really TR men, and hide behind the KJB. These two don't agree, so either you are a TR believer, or a KJB believer. When I say, "these two" I mean the present day TR given to us by Westcott and Hort and the KJB. If we had the original TR than it would agree with the KJB, but we don't have it.

The Anvil-God's Word
"Last eve I passed beside a blacksmith's door, And heard the anvil ring the vesper chime; Then, looking in, I saw upon the floor
Old hammers, worn with beating years of time. "How many anvils have you had," said I, "To wear and batter all these hammers so?"
"Just one," said he, and then, with twinkling eye, "The anvil wears the hammers out you know." And so, thought I, the anvil of God's Word,
For ages skeptic blows have beat upon; Yet, though the noise of falling blows was heard, The anvil is unharmed-the hammers gone."

If one is not sure about the King James Bible being the only Bible for the English speaking people for today, then they should do some study. It is clear to those who have an open mind and a spiritual appetite for truth. Some ask to explain why I believe as I do, but there is not a quick answer to such a question. One must do some research and study to find out the truth, or to trust other great men of God who have done the research. The men I have listed below are men who first profess Christ alone as their Saviour. They also have faith in God to do what he said concerning preservation. Their lives are testimonies of the Word of God that God inspired. They also believe that God's Word is the final authority in all matters not scholarship or man.

Inspiration

Verbal Inspiration
by |
|
B. H. CARROLL
"It has always been a matter of profound surprise to me that anybody |
|
should ever question the verbal inspiration of the Bible.
The whole thing had to be written in words. Words are signs of ideas, |
|
and if the words are not inspired, then there is no way of getting at anything |
|
in connection with inspiration. If I am free to pick up the Bible and read |
|
something and say, "That is inspired," then read something else and say, |
|
"That is not inspired," and someone else does not agree with me as to |
|
which is and which is not inspired, it leaves the whole thing unsettled |
|
as to whether any of it is inspired.
What is the object of inspiration? It is to put accurately, in human words, |
|
ideas from God. If the words are not inspired, how am I to know |
|
how much to reject, and how to find out whether anything is from God?
When you hear this silly talk that the Bible "contains" the word of God |
|
and is not the word of God, you hear fool's talk. I don't care if he is |
|
a Doctor of Divinity, a president of a university covered with medals |
|
from universities of Europe and the United States — it is fool-talk. |
|
There can be no inspiration of the book without the inspiration of the |
|
words of the book."

"The KJV translators did not claim inspiration for their work because they did not need to. In their day it was generally understood that the Bible was inspired, and to them it was also clear that the Bible was now English and had been since at least the day of Wycliffe; that the Greek and Hebrew already had served their purpose and had long been properly put into English, perhaps as early as Tyndale. The true church, even in the middle ages, has always had inspired scripture before it. An omniscient, omnipotent God would not have allowed anything else."

"Norris also experienced conflicts with other pastors in the Southern Baptist Convention. In 1914, he was expelled from the Fort Worth Baptist Pastor’s conference. In 1922, the First Baptist Church was excluded from the Tarrant Baptist Association. Two years later, the church suffered the same at the hands of the Baptist General Convention of Texas. The last censure included a statewide radio “hatefest” by Southern Baptist leaders that labeled Norris a liar, diabolical, thief, devilish, dastardly, corrupt, perjurer and reprobate. Issues included Norris’ campaign against other churches accepting his “disciplined members,” his failure to participate in financial giving campaigns sponsored by the denomination, his failure to use literature prescribed by the denomination (his only Sunday school book was the King James Version of the Bible) and his tactics in fighting modernism in the denomination’s schools."

STATISTICS AND STUFF
| |
The end result of all of this is sadly illustrated in the book, Reforming Fundamentalism, by George A. Marsden, which informs that 85% of the students in one of America's largest evangelical seminaries stated that they do not believe in the inerrancy of Scripture. Beyond that, a poll of 10,000 U.S.A. clergymen (of whom 74% replied) by sociologist Jeffery Hadden in 1987 clearly reveals the effects of this significant change of belief through the passage of time. When asked if they believed that the Scriptures are the inspired and inerrant Word of God in faith, history, and secular matters:
95% of Episcopalians said "No." 87% of Methodists said "No." 82% of Presbyterians said "No." 77% of American Lutherans said "No." 67% of American Baptists said "No."
(This is pitiful!)

Every Word

A wealthy woman who was traveling overseas saw a bracelet she thought was irresistible, so she sent her husband this cable: "Have found wonderful bracelet. Price $75,000. May I buy it?" Her husband promptly wired back this response: "No, price too high." But the cable operator omitted the comma, so the woman received this message: "No price too high." Elated, she purchased the bracelet. Needless to say, at her return her husband was dismayed. It was just a little thing--a comma--but what a difference it made!
