Brother Hall,

I'm trying to understand your point of view.  Please help me.  I need these
questions answered.

1.) If the KJV is the "only" inspired translation, what did they have before
1611?

2.) Is it all inspired, including the parts that are italicized that were
added by the translators for clarification?

3) What translation do you use if you don't speak English?  Is there no
authorized translation for you then?

This is the trouble I have with the KJV only doctrine.  If I could get these
answered to my satisfaction I would change my mind.  Until I do, or until
God reveals to ME (please don't ask me to accept YOUR revelation without
scriptural proof) that the KJV is inspired, I will continue to believe as I
do, which is, that the original scriptures are inspired, but not ANY
translation.  I believe every word you say quote about the scriptures, but I
do not believe they apply to the KJV.

Humbly Submitted,

Andy Gossett
