Why the KJV is God's Word: As this KJV site says of itself, "The King James Version is considered one of the most accurate English translations in existence. A skilled committee of 54 translators worked for 7 years to carefully complete the King James translation project The book is cited as the most published book in world history with a significant influence on literature and culture. It is estimated that more than 1 billion copies of the King James Version have been published."

Almost all readership charts show the KJV at 31%. The nearest to it is the NIV at only 13%. All the rest are near non-existent. The NKJV by its own description is not a new translation, but a language correction of the KJV. The KJV and the NKJV combined puts the preferred readership at 38%, far and away humanity's favored translation of the Holy Scriptures.

We call the Bible the Holy Bible, or the Holy Scriptures. The word HOLY means perfect, without blemish, non-erroneous. Whatever declaration it makes, that is the truth of it. It may not direct itself to a specific subject such as science or logic, but whatever it touches, it is the truth of it by definition whether or not humanity agrees with it.

Virtually 100% of fundamental Christian theologians agree that God reveals himself to fallen humanity in three ways: 1. The God-made outer witness of creation (Atheists almost never win debates with Christianity's scientists; in fact, one leading atheist scientist advised her chums to never debate Christianity's scientists because they always win). 2. The God-ordained written witness of God's perfect Word. (The perfect logic of God's omniscience demands Divine perpetuity of God's perfect message to lost humanity). 3. The God-prompted inner witness in mankind's soul and spirit, inspiring an inner hunger for perfect Truth. All three of these work in harmony with one another toward the salvation of fallen humanity.
