The bottom line question posed by King James Version (KJV) only proponents is: where is the Bible/God’s word?
Their answer, of course, is that it is within the pages of the KJV.
Now, they would not be able to make that claim if they were to give a talk on this topic in any non-English speaking country. So, KJV only proponents will then qualify their statements by noting that the KJV is God’s word for the English speaking world.
But that only leads to every single person who speaks other languages around the world-there are circa 6,500 languages-asking the very same question: where is the Bible/God’s word? Well, in 6,499 cases the answer cannot be the KJV so apparently, KJV only is somewhat like the Islamic concept that Allah’s words are only truly contained in the original Arabic. So, apparently, the claim is that God’s word is only truly contained in the
English KJV.
So, peoples of the 6,499 languages must ask KJV only proponents: where is the Bible/God’s word for us, in our language?
God’s word is alive and active, not restricted to one particular language and available to people of all and any language groups.
