King James Bible

The Bible is not merely a religious book or the thoughts of men about God, but the living, God-breathed Word of God. The same divine breath that spoke creation into existence gave us the Scriptures, which carry life, authority, power, and certainty. Because God's Word is living, it quickens the soul, strengthens the believer, and throughly furnishes the man of God unto all good works. We need to b...

The Word of God must be more than a book we own or occasionally read; it must live in our hearts, govern our thoughts, shape our conversations, and not be only a fixture or an adornment for our homes. We see that the battle for the soul begins early, especially in the minds of children, and if we do not diligently teach them God's Word, the world will gladly train them in its place. We are warned...

The Scripture is clear that Jesus is the living Word of God. Therefore, his written Word must have the same qualities as He does. Jesus is holy, separate from sinners, and exalted to the most high place in the Universe. The written Word that He gave us must be as perfect as He is, or it will not represent Him truly to lost man. The King James Bible was not written in the common vernacular of the t...

Bible study begins with believing that the King James Bible is the preserved Word of God. When we approach it with reverence, humility, and a yielded heart, we can expect to increase our understanding of God, and all things pertaining to life and eternity. We must study to gain understanding, not merely knowledge, trusting the Holy Spirit to teach us as we compare Scripture with Scripture. If we c...

We must not just read the Bible, but truly study it, because sound doctrine comes from the Word of God and must agree with the whole counsel of Scripture. We must not depend on opinions, online teaching, or vain religious talk, but give ourselves to reading, doctrine, and careful study, comparing Scripture with Scripture and letting the Bible define its own words. God designed our minds to learn b...

This message is meant to remind us of the absolute importance and divine preservation of the Word of God. Every word of Scripture matters because God speaks truth and life through His Word, and all the Creation came into existence when God spoke. Language itself is a gift from God, and we must approach the Bible with reverence, intentional study, and faith. The King James Bible is God's preserved...

This is a passionate defense of the King James Bible as the preserved and purified Word of God, tracing its historical roots, manuscript lineage, and spiritual influence through history. Using Proverbs 30:5 and Matthew 4:4, the message emphasizes that every word of God matters and that the King James Bible stands apart because it was translated from the "pure" line of manuscripts preserved through...

In this message, we consider what it means for the Word of God to be our true oracle—the place we go for truth, wisdom, guidance, and understanding. We see that all people seek answers somewhere, whether from God's Word or from false sources, but God has given us His Word as the only sure and holy voice to guide our lives. Looking at the history and fruit of the King James Bible, we're reminded th...

The King James Bible stands apart from modern translations on two fronts. First, the modern degradation of English — through profanity, redefined vocabulary, and careless speech — has conditioned people to treat Scripture with the same casual attitude they treat language in general; higher standards of language are offensive to people who are profane, just as higher standards of morals are offensi...

Does it really matter which version of the Bible we use? Looking at Jeremiah 36, we see a clear example that no matter how much people try to destroy or change God's Word, God preserves it. The king burned the scroll, but God had it written again—and even added more to it. Man cannot get rid of what God has said, although he seems to never give up trying. In this message we look at many comparison...

We are trying to explain how the King James Bible (KJV) came into being and why we believe it is important to understand its history, not just preach from it. This generation is far removed from those of times past who knew and understood where the Bible came from, and no longer automatically trusts the Bible, especially since they are so unfamiliar with it. The people of this generation are also...

Understanding the history behind the King James Bible requires patience, humility, an honest heart, and a broad view of God's work through time. The Scripture makes it clear that God is sovereign over rulers and nations, and often accomplishes His purposes through imperfect people, so the value of the King James Bible does not depend on King James, or any of the other men involved in it's developm...

This a study of the history the English Bible from Tyndale through the Geneva Bible, and leading up to the King James Bible. It shows that this line of Scriptures came from the preserved "received text" rather than the corrupt Alexandrian tradition. The promise in Isaiah 55 that God's Word will prosper applies very well to the Reformation, because we can see that the spread of faithful Bible trans...

We are studying the history of the Scriptures, tracing the history of the Bible to show that the King James Bible is the preserved Word of God, contrasting it with modern translations that come from a different line of manuscripts. We look at how early Greek manuscripts from Antioch (the Textus Receptus) were brought to western Europe after the fall of Constantinople and helped spark the Reformati...

The "Dark Ages" was 1000 years of widespread spiritual darkness that resulted from the suppression of the Scriptures by the Roman Catholic Church, which restricted ordinary people from reading the Bible and enforced its authority through brutal persecution. This message traces how groups such as the Albigensians and Waldensians, along with reformers like John Wycliffe, Jan Hus, and Martin Luther,...

God's Word is eternal, true, and unchanging, and the Bible is God's complete revelation to humanity. Throughout history the Bible has faced strong opposition, with many believers suffering persecution or death for translating and publishing it. The New Testament began with the apostles preaching Jesus using the Old Testament, and how the Gospels and epistles were later written to record that messa...

A righteous and holy God would not leave mankind without a clear and preserved revelation of Himself. From creation to the present, God's Word has existed, and Scripture promises that His pure words would be preserved forever (Psalm 12; 1 Peter 1). Therefore, believers can be confident that the true Word of God still exists today. The King James Bible is that preserved Word for the English-speakin...
