Understanding king james onlyism and its claims few controversies stir as much debate as king james onlyism This view holds that the kjv is the only divinely inspired english bible It dismisses all other translations as flawed But is there real evidence and sound biblical scholarship to support this claim The kjv is a gift of god’s providence, but it is not god’s final standard Only the inspired word, in the languages he gave it, has that authority
So read your kjv with gratitude if you love it Do not look down on the brother who reads the esv, the nasb, or. A distinction should be made between those who believe the king james version is the only legitimate english translation of the bible (the king james only movement) and those who believe that the king james is to be preferred over other english bible translations but that it is not inherently wrong to choose other english versions.
