Hello Iri,
Why Thank you, very Informative and it makes sense! I can see the Lutherans doing that, and also amid the 1995, copyright date on the OSB, that they don’t see using that translation as a Big deal anymore. Times do change.
havent seen anyone here acting as if the kjv is a book to worship satan. where did you derive this?
on the contrary, those of us who do not use it for study, have actually praised it for its use of the english language, and poetic value etc. also are you saying since we have the 7 books we have a different bible?ths, and God bless you and yours.and this my friend is the opposite extreme of the kjv only belief
i wonder how many text, they have memorized out of say… 1rst chronicles?
Better check the facts, the Douay Rheims Bible has been revised more times than the King James Version. And why does the Catechism of the Roman Catholic church have to be larger than the Bible itself? Seems very much inappropriate and illogical.The KJV hasn’t been revised as much as the Douay Rhiems? there was a Verion of the KJV called the evil Bible because of all the misplaced word and, miss spellings, and typos.
it tok til 1789 Cambridge edition to get the one they use today, and then not until the NKJV has the KJV finally had most the most needed corrections.
NIV is the worst it was translated in that it used the English words as acceptable for all english speaking countries which means it sacrificed meaning for an more acceptable word, i.e. it is watered down. They make a descent Study Bible with good commentary, but I don’t use it for biblical verse references.
I do use a NRSV 'Annotated Study Bible, with apocrypha, Oxford, Univ. Press when attending Bible studies of other faiths, (I also carry around about forty to fifty pounds of other bibles and reference books)
They’ll accept it,w hen I’m reading allowed from it, But I like to use the RSV for quoting, but ya just can’t get a good RSV study Bible these days. Harper Collins also makes a good NRSV study Bible. But today’s favorite? Oxford Univ. Press: ‘The Catholic Study Bible’ (NAB) second edition, 2005, and i also now carry a catechism of the Catholic Church, I find the two go hand in hand for biblical insight.
God Bless,
John
Remind you one of those who move from house to house, peppering you with verse after Biblical verses that seems like it never ends and in one breath. You would think either they are really good or simply rehearsing what their pastors had drilled into them before they start their mission.i wonder how many text, they have memorized out of say… 1rst chronicles?
Hello I bet your Church uses the same liturgy we’ve been using since the early 70’s developed by the Catholic Church over a ten yr. period to get back to the liturgical Mass of the early Church. So why knock us now?
shaw:KJV
I own 2 CCC’s and 4 Catholic bibles ranging from a small easy to cary version of the 1609 Douay to a much larger “large print” family version of the Douay (and a couple NAB’s). The CCC is not larger than any version of the bible that I own. So assertion shot down. But that said:
Yes, almost identical in this case anyway.
I’lll be honest, I haven’t run into anything the KJV that makes it seem explicitly “protestant leaning”, at least not the online PDF versions I’ve downloaded. That said, I’m still happier having a Douay bible.
Hey Iri,
This is not a Greek Orthodox Study Bible. It is labeled "“The Orthodox Study Bible” It had various contributors mainly from St. Athanasius Academy but also many Other Orthodox Bishops of all flavors from Greek to Antiochian. Kallistos Ware is probably the most widely known Orthodox bishop with his hand in the pot. This IS NOT just the New Testament, it is the complete Bible with the inclusion of 3 Maccabees and 151 psalms, plus separates the Epistle of Jeremiah out of Baruch. Copyright 2008
Can you explain how God revealed to you that it was “demonic”? By what norm are you holding this up? Is it because of the dated language? What makes that version “demonic?” I have heard mostly Baptists who say that Satan gave the NIV to the church, but this is the first time ever that I have heard the KJV being declared demonic. Those who say the NIV has satanic influence have yet to explain that statement either.
It matters not to me what the Catechism of St Pius X says on that matter, what does the actual Catechism teach? I have found no paragraphs in my version nor in the online version that cross references what version a Catholic should use. I realize that it may still be popular to use the Pius X catechism (originally Published in 1908) as a teaching tool because of its simplicity, but I have yet to find what you post in the regular catechism of the Catholic Church.
