King James Bible Preface

Is the King James Bible
the "ONLY" Word of God?


There is a great deal being said about this concern.

There are "Christians" today who make it their entire ministry to proclaim this very thing.

But, rather than getting into all that rhetoric, let's see what the Writers of the King James 'themselves' had to say?

This below text is copied from the Original Preface of the King James Bible:


No cause therefore why the word translated should be denied to be the word, or forbidden to be current, notwithstanding that some imperfections and blemishes may be noted in the setting forth of it.

Therefore as S. Augustine saith, that variety of Translations is profitable for the finding out of the sense of the Scriptures: [S. Aug. 2. de doctr. Christian. cap. 14.]

For is the kingdom of God to become words or syllables?
