I will be brief. My opinion is that we should stick with the KJV - the preserved Word of God - no need to deviate from it. I know there is more than one verse that changes words that shouldn't be changed, i.e., "Servant" for "Son", as an example. I realize that Jesus was a Servant, but do not believe that it should have been substituted for "Son," - this takes away His deity. Any version, other than the KJV, is missing the mark. We are not supposed to change a "jot or tittle" of the Preserved Word. Thank you.

I love the New King James version, but, I have been using a new version of the bible. It is the Chronological Life Application Study Bible. It has opened up so many new ideas I hadn't interpreted some verses this way. Praise God for giving His word to us.
