How To Understand the King James 1611 Bible
audio sermon
# 2

This is a series of sermons for folks who think the King James Bible is confusing, contradictory and archaic.
The KJB is not only the easiest bible to read, it is the easiest to understand.
The KJB is God's Holy Scriptures and is the ONLY Holy Scripture!

Here is how it can be so simply understood:
:Let's add a few more verses in our discussion of the words of God / Word of God..
Let's look at the differences in the modern bible 'versions' when it comes to II Timothy 2:15,16.  We see the emphasis being put on 'works' which shows just how serious the differences are between all the versions when compared to the KJB.

The most important observation is that the King James Bible is the only Bible that tells us to rightly divide the word of truth.  That verse is the key verse when it comes to understanding that ole KJB!  New versions only confuse people and take away their understanding!

Rightly dividing a KJB will actually show us the details of being approved unto God if you are a true believer.  That 'approval' is based on what Christ did for us - not necessarily what we have done after we are saved; although Philippians 1:9,10 does tell us to grow in judgment.  But the approval is what Christ has done to and for us, and that all is available in a KJB only!

Only One Bible teaches Rightly Dividing!
II Timothy 2:15,16
KJB1611
Study to shew thyself approved unto God
rightly dividing the word of truth
shun profane and vain babblings
increase unto more ungodliness

NASB Be diligent to present yourself approved to God accurately handling the word of truth avoid worldy and empty chatter lead to further ungodliness
Message Concentrate on doing your best for God, work you won't be ashamed of... laying out the truth plain and simple... Stay clear of pious talk. Words are not mere words, you know. If they are not backed by a godly life, they accumulate as poison in the soul.
Amplified Study and be eager ... do your utmost to present yourself to God approved (tested by trial) accurately analyzing and accurately dividing (rightly handling and skillfully teaching) the Word of Truth Avoid all empty (vain, useless, idle) talk... it will lead people into more and more ungodliness.
NLT Work hard so you can present yourself to God and receive his approval.  Be a good worker, one who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly explains the word of truth. Avoid worthless, foolish talk... ...that only leads to more godless behavior.

Darby Strive diligently to present thyself approved to God... a workman that has not to be ashamed cutting in a straight line the word of truth, profane, vain babblings shun,  for they will advance to greater impiety.
NIV - (UK) Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved who correctly handles the word of truth Avoid godless chatter ...those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly.

The entire King James Bible is written FOR us, but it is not all written TO us!
We learn from the "For" and we learn to apply the 'TO!"
