- "Thanks for your letter of
inquiry. May I be quite frank? If you were shocked to learn that the NASV was an
adulterated version, to put it in the vernacular "You all ain't seen nuthin
yet." We face as of now friend Matto, the most vicious and malicious attempted
assassination of the character, the name, the word of God ever done on planet earth since
those blasphemous words were uttered in Eden, "Yeah, hath God said?"
-
- A friendly warning which I have given
to many of my audiences in the States and Canada. If you see this issue and take your
stand openly and unashamedly for the KJB as being the true, pure, inerrant Word of God
(which it is), then you will lose friends and make enemies. My only reply to that is 'SO
WHAT!' 'Shall we be carried to the skies, on flowery beds of ease, while others fought to
win the prize, and sailed through bloody seas.' I keep reminding myself that history
clearly shows that your forefathers and mine rotted in dungeons, hung from the gallows,
burned at the stake ALL BECAUSE they owned and held as their final authority the
KJB."

godly devotion is admittedly great: 'He was made manifest in flesh, was declared righteous
