I've noticed something strange here that I don't see in other articles and discussions. Why do most all of you use the KJV? Most Places I go to I see them use the NIV which is much easier to understand.
The NIV is not much easier to understand, it's much easier to misunderstand because it uses a thought-for-thought and phrase by phrase translation which is not how God inspired it written. So while you think it is better understood that is only because it is translated presumptuously rather than seeking for inspired word for word translation. Not to mention it leaves much out of the bible using inferior older manuscripts.
Is this something this forum does in order to hold to a tradition or something?
Well, the KJV is the tradition of the saints since its was printed, but we use it because it is a more honest word for word translation, so we can search out meanings word by word. We know man cannot know the thought for thought of what God is saying, so word for word is obviously best.
