You guys do know that the majority chunk of Evangelical Christians and a bunch of the other sects have been systematically brainwashed with bad eschatology regarding the state of Israel for about the last century right?
I only woke up to it 3 or 4 years ago myself. I used to watch TBN and cry when the poor starving Israeli grandmas commercial came on. If I had more money I would have sent them some happily! It was my duty as a believer in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob!
Yes, thanks to the re-written and mostly misquoted and interpreted "Holy Word of God". Started with Queen Mary of the Scots to get her son on the throne with the writing of the King James Version due to not liking interpretations in the Tyndale and Geneva versions. Just tweak it a bit and "owning nothing and being happy" will be the "Holy Word of God".
Research the King James bible. It was "translated" by 47 theologians over 7 years. Theologians needed to appease both the Anglican and the Puritan English dogmatic crowds after Reformation, so that King James IV of Scotland who became King James I of England would not have a rebellion on his hands.
I am sure they consulted God every step of the Way.
Interestingly enough the Dedication was not the Defender of The Word of God but the Defender of the Faith. Dogma. Ritual. Control. It prevented an uprising.
While the king may have been dubious, as all who hold power seem to have been, I personally believe that the KJV was God's plan to get His Word into the hands of everybody who wanted it.
Prior to its publication, most English-speaking people relied on the Geneva Bible (1560) or the Bishops’ Bible (1568) for their daily devotions. However, these Bibles were not as widely available or affordable for the common man.
The KJV was a deliberate attempt to create a Bible that was more accessible to the general population. Its widespread availability and affordability enabled common men to own and read the Bible in their own language.
The KJV’s use of Early Modern English, which was closer to the vernacular language spoken by common people, made it easier for them to understand and relate to the scriptures. The poetic and figurative language used in the KJV also helped to convey complex theological concepts in a way that was engaging and memorable for lay readers.
Unlike the Geneva Bible, which was influenced by Protestant reformers and contained commentary that was critical of the English monarchy, the KJV was intended to be a neutral translation. This lack of political bias allowed common men to read the Bible without being swayed by partisan agendas or theological controversies.
And thanks be to God for foiling the treasonous, Jesuit "Gunpowder Plot" on the 5th of November!

Eh? What all was changed? I am under the belief that the KJV is the best english translation available today.
Afaik it was the Jesuit-infested seminaries coupled with Jesuit-infested "new Bible" translation teams who are truly behind the perversions...
