Conservative radio and television host Glenn Beck met with evangelist Billy Graham last week, Beck said on his show.
"Just spent 3 amazing hours with Billy Graham at his mountain top home in SC. His son Franklin joined my wife and me for a talk and prayer," Beck tweeted on February 19. "I will share some of my visit with Billy Graham on radio Monday. Side note: I expect tweet hate for me, I cannot understand BG hatred. Sad," he said in a separate update.

I doubt your first statement is correct, especially as King James already had the Bishop's Bible, along with plenty of other English Versions, to separate the kingship from the papacy.
Regarding "accuracy problems", I will be willing to have a look at all that you can come up with. But let's not be vague about it; put up your first "problem", along with how you arived at that "problem", that is, what makes you think that it is a problem. Was it your own research done from a skilful linguistic ability, or was it the word of so-called scholars, or did you read it in "One hundred mistakes in the King James Bible" written by secularists?

Correct It is all happening vey quickly now - most exciting!
Mike - good to see you're eating healthily. It will help you in the battle against the NWO or EM or whatever you want to call them.

I hope that be true, but it is interesting that The King turned the heart of the king to order a new translation of His Word, one which turned out to be the most majestic and most accurate ever produced, one which has been loved by believers for 400 years now and still running.
And don't forget, without a Bible you would never even have heard of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Great King, whose words are writen down for us in scripture, inerrantly and inspirationally.

You know; I've been over this article several times. And I still have not found where there is any reference to any version of the Bible in it. King James or otherwise. We've already got Jim for turning every thread into version debates.

Well Jim. There you go again turning yet another thread into an anti KJV argument. Are you going to Lie Again by saying that you never spoke against the KJV? Or are you going to try to say "Someone else started it" and you are just replying to it. Jim Lincoln;[J]ack [L]eg you are a decieved deciever, and suffer from an Obsesive compulsive disorder. At the Judgment seat of Christ, all of your anti KJV postings will go up in smoke as the wood hay and stubble that they really are.

Quote from aom: "We believe the Bible to be the written revelation of God, complete and sufficient in all respects. We believe the Scriptures to be "God-breathed" and therefore fully authoritative in and of themselves; they rely for their authority upon no church, council, or creed, but are authoritative simply because they are the Word of God. The Scriptures, as they embody the very speaking of God, partake of His authority, His power."
Sounds good, doesn't it?
But he doesn't make one mention of what he understands by "The Bible", does he?
As for KJV-Onlyism, you can tear it apart as much as you like, and I would join with you - AS YOU WELL KNOW! So let's have less of the smokescreens, please. There is a difference between only using the AV and being a KJV-Only, as you also well know. So do stop playacting and being a devil's advocate, and debate in a more Christian way - if you are able, that is.
Well you can see what happens when Glen Beck's meeting a while back was favourably received by some here; first Billy Graham, then the entire ecumenical fraternity, then eventually James White, John Piper and Jimmy Ankerberg.
It is curious when we read the Mormon beliefs, such as.... "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, known as the Mormons, teaches that God the father used to be a man on another planet, that he became a God by following the laws and ordinances of that God on that planet and came to this world with his wife (she became a goddess), and that they produce a spirit offspring in heaven. These spirit offspring, which includes Jesus, the devil, and you and me, are all brothers and sisters born in the preexistence"
It is curious that Billy Graham = accepts degrees from Catholic colleges and says the Catholic gospel is the same as his own = has turned thousands of converts over to apostate churches = thinks the Pope is a great evangelist = thinks there is special power in infant baptism = does not believe hell is a place of literal fiery torment = invites Catholic bishops onto his platform to bless those who come forward at his invitations = praises Christ-denying modernists
Is anyone really surprised by this meeting? It is just another one of those times when all good pragmatists should agree to disagree for a common goal and not worry about what happens next should their goal be achieved. Don't worry. Just make another You-tube video when many of the fair citizens of religious pluralism become Mormons, then the 'the sort' of Christians who will still be complaining but not united in the truth, can look like the persecuted. Again, Don't worry they're just movie stars. It's not real.
