KJV vs AV

There is no 1611 AV version today. The KJV that you are holding in your
hand is the 1769 edition.

When the AV 1611 first came out it was loaded with errors, which
produced the 1612,1613, 1616, 1618,1626 editions and so on, until all
the grammar and spellings were cleaned up which finally produced the
1769 edition.

There is a difference between the KJV American editions and the KJV
English editions; especially when published by Cambridge, Oxford and
Nelson.

There is a movement called the "KJV-Only"
movement which boastfully state; "the KJV is the true word of God in the
English language!" Of course when they do this which KJV are they
referring to, the Nelson or the Oxford? Because, believe it or not, the
English version and the American version do differ!

We "B-Greekers" know that the true word of God is of course in the
original languages, and any silly person knows that no language can be
translated 100% word for word especially when it comes to an advanced
language like Greek which is set with rules and standards. Verses
English which is a living inferior language that constantly changes with
rules and new words being brought in.
