Frequently Asked Questions
1.What is the King James Version (KJV) of the New Testament?
The King James Version (KJV) of the New Testament was completed in 1611 by 8 members of the Church of England.
There were (and still are) no original texts to translate. The oldest manuscripts we have were written down hundreds of years after the last Apostle died. There are over 8000 of these old manuscripts, with no two alike.
The King James translators chose to use none of the texts. Instead, they edited previous translations to create the New Testament their king and parliament would approve.
So today, 21st century Christians believe the 'Word of God' is a book edited in the 17th century from 16th century translations of 8000 contradictory copies of 4th century scrolls that claim to copies of lost letters written in the 1st century by unknown authors.
