Why I Am A King James Bible Only Christian Has Nothing To Do With The Greek, Hebrew, Or Any Other Movement, Group, Organization Or Individual

This is why I have been King James only for 30 years now, and why I will not ever, by God’s grace, move from that foundation at any point in the future.

Funny thing, though, whenever I picked up an NIV or some other modern translation, it didn’t speak to me, it felt like I was holding a balloon that was rapidly leaking air. I can’t explain that, I only know that’s what happened.

A few weeks ago, we opened up the NTEB Bible Believers Bookstore here in Saint Augustine, and the Lord is blessing us with favor in the community and online as sales remain encouraging and steady. But more than a few people who have visited the store have asked why we don’t sell any other bible or commentary other than the King James. The answer is really quite simple, and I would like to share my thoughts with you on that today.

“Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, What doest thou?” Ecclesiastes 8:4 (KJB)

I didn’t come to be a King James Only Christian because of any one charismatic bible preacher or teacher, and I was not introduced to the Independent Fundamental Baptist movement until years after I was saved. I became a King James Only Christian on March 14th, 1991, because I held that Book in my hands, read it, believed it, and got saved. That Book spoke to me, and God allowed me at once to see that it was the truth. Now, I didn’t know any Christians, no one ‘led me to the Lord’ other than the Holy Spirit, and I had never set foot inside a Christian Church. All I had was God, the King James Bible, and salvation. I was blissfully unaware that the ‘King James Only Controversy’ was even a thing.

“For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12 (KJB)

After getting saved, things happened quickly. I soon found myself in a small, non-IFB Baptist Church, where the pastor was not King James only. But that made no mind to me because I had my bible and no one was going to talk me out of it. Funny thing, though, whenever I picked up an NIV or some other modern translation, it didn’t speak to me, it felt like I was holding a balloon that was rapidly leaking air. I can’t explain that, I only know that’s what happened.

I began to read Christian literature and biographies of great men that God used like DL Moody, Robert Sheffey and others, and what did I find? I found them all to be King James Bible people. I had little to no interest in most of the ones in the 20th century other than people like Clarence Larkin and Peter Ruckman, and when I got to that stage in my journey, it was there I was introduced to the raging battlefield that is the IFB Movement. But following sound advice to ‘eat the meat and spit out the bones’, I soon made substantial progress.

One thing that puzzled me was why nearly all of the ‘brain boys’, the Greek and Hebrew scholars, all seemed to be highly critical of the King James, and nearly all of them defaulted to versions like the NIV, ESV and others. Why would such smart people want a book that, to me, had no power? Good question, we’ll answer that in a bit. One day, I thought it would be fun to compare scripture in the King James with scripture in the NIV, and what I found shocked me.

King James Version – KJV
New International Version – NIV
Why did Jesus come to earth?
Luke 9:56
For the Son of man is not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.Matt. 18:11 For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost. 		Luke 9:56
and they went to another village.Matt. 18:11
(missing)
Is repentance important?
Matt. 9:13
…I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.		 Matt. 9:13
…I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.
For whom did Jesus die?
I Cor. 5:7
…Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: 		I Cor. 5:7
…Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.
In Whom must you believe to be saved?
John 6:47
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. 		John 6:47
I tell you the truth, he who believes has everlasting life.
Was Joseph really the father of Jesus?
Luke 2:33
And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him. 		Luke 2:33
The child’s father and mother marveled at what was said about him.
Did Jesus give His disciples power to heal?
Mark 3:15
…power to heal sickness, and to cast out devils.		 Mark 3:15
…authority to drive out demons.
If it’s hard to do, should we just remove it?
Mark 11:26
But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses. 		Mark 11:26
(missing)
Who is in charge?
I Cor. 10:28
…for the earth is the Lord’s and the fulness thereof: 		I Cor. 10:28
(last part of verse missing)
How must we deal with our enemies?
Matt. 5:44
…Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you. 		Matt. 5:44
…Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.
Where did Jesus go?
John 16:16
A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father. 		John 16:16
In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me.
Is it John or the Devil?
Revelation 13:1
And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.		 Revelation 13:1
The dragon stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. It had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on its horns, and on each head a blasphemous name.

I don’t know how to explain that, do you? And what you see there is only a few examples, there are hundreds and hundreds more. How could there be such a great discrepancy between the King James and the NIV? Was it done out of ignorance, was it intentional, what was behind it all? Those questions would be answered when I bought my first copy of ‘New Age Bible Versions’, and read the amazing, Holy Spirit-led research done by Gail Riplinger. I highly recommend you get yourself a copy, we happily sell it at the bookstore.

Do you know the one thing that all bible versions over that past 410 years have in common? I bet you don’t. The one thing that all bible version from the King James on forward have in common is that they are all different. Common sense and logic would dictate that things that are different cannot be the same. So if they are all different, which one is the one where God has preserved His word? Since the word of God cannot contradict itself, can you show me where God has preserved His word? I can. Now look at the following verses from Psalm 12 in the King James and in the NIV. The King James gives you a promise that God will preserve His word on earth for all generations, and then the NIV swoops in and erases that promise! See for yourself.

  • GOD’S PROMISE TO PRESERVE HIS WORDS IN THE KJB: “The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.” Psalm 12:6,7 (KJB)
  • GOD’S PROMISE TO PRESERVE HIS WORDS REMOVED: “And the words of the LORD are flawless, like silver purified in a crucible, like gold[fn] refined seven times. You, LORD, will keep the needy safe and will protect us forever from the wicked,” Psalm 12: 6,7 (NIV)

If you’re a bible believing Christian who loves the Book, that one example alone should make you fighting mad, does it?? The King James in verse 7 gives you God’s absolute, rock-solid promise to preserve His words throughout every generation, that’s a huge promise! What does the NIV do? It erases it and substitutes it with meaningless nonsense that has nothing to do with preservation of scripture at all. Verse 7 in the NIV is not anything at all like verse 7 in the King James. I’m from New Jersey, we call this a scam, the old ‘bait-and-switch’. Verse 7 in the King James is talking about the preservation of words, verse 7 in the NIV is talking about the preservation of people. Not even remotely close on any level.

This is why I have been King James only for 30 years now, and why I will not ever, by God’s grace, move from that foundation at any point in the future. I hope you have enjoyed this snapshot of my faith in the King James Bible, and who knows, maybe this will become an ongoing series. But let me challenge you today to pick one modern bible where you think God has preserved His words, there can be only one, and defend your choice by comparing it to the King James. If you do it honestly and before the Lord, you will come to the exact same conclusion that I came to.

Now The End Begins is your front line defense against the rising tide of darkness in the last Days before the Rapture of the Church

Please continue to pray for us, and for wisdom for me especially, as we continue taking steps to print the NTEB branded King James Bible for our free Bible and Bibles Behind Bars program. It is exciting and intimidating at the same time. If the Lord has prospered your financially, we ask you to donate to help us continue to send out free Bibles at this level, and even higher than we are at the moment. It takes a lot of prayer, and a lot of resources to do all this. Praise the Lord we are doing it, all of us together, labouring in the Lord’s harvest field. TO THE FIGHT!!!

When you contribute to this fundraising effort, you are helping us to do what the Lord called us to do. The money you send in goes primarily to the overall daily operations of this site. When people ask for Bibles, we send them out at no charge. When people write in and say how much they would like gospel tracts but cannot afford them, we send them a box at no cost to them for either the tracts or the shipping, no matter where they are in the world. We have a Gospel Billboard program. We are now broadcasting Bible studies, Podcasts and a Sunday Service 5 times a week, thanks to your generous donations. All this is possible because YOU pray for us, YOU support us, and YOU give so we can continue growing.

But whatever you do, don’t do nothing. Time is short and we need your help right now. The Lord has given us an open door with a tremendous ‘course’ for us to fulfill that will create an excellent experience at the Judgement Seat of Christ. Please pray for our efforts, and if the Lord leads you to donate, be as generous as possible. The war is REAL, the battle HOT and the time is SHORT…TO THE FIGHT!!!

“Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;” Titus 2:13 (KJB)

“Thank you very much!” – Geoffrey, editor-in-chief, NTEB

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: Catholic Nun Kicked To The Ground In Jerusalem As Attacks On Christians And Roman & Orthodox Catholics Rise Across Israel

Attacks On Christians And Catholics Are Rising In Israel As Catholic Nun Is Kicked To The Ground On The Streets Of Jerusalem

To this lost world, there is little to no distinction made between biblically born again Christians and members of cult and fringe groups like the Roman Catholics, Mormons, Jehovah’s Witness and Seventh Day Adventists. To them, it’s all the same, it’s all Christianity. So for the sake of our discussion today, we will label all of it as “professing Christianity”. That said, there is a verifiable rise on Christians in Israel at the hands of radical Orthodox Jews, and it grows worse by the day. In our story today, we see a Roman Catholic nun kicked to the ground by Orthodox Jews, and this is just the tip of the end times iceberg.

“As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sakes.” Romans 11:28 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, the attacker was not some nameless shadow from a vague “troubled region.” Israeli police arrested a 36-year-old Jewish suspect, and AP reported that the assailant seen in the video was wearing tzitzit, the fringes worn by observant Jewish men. AP also noted that Christian leaders and organizations have been warning of a growing trend of violence and harassment against Christian clergy and pilgrims, often by ultra-Orthodox Jewish youth. There it is. Not rumor, not propaganda, not replacement theology hysteria. A documented pattern. The Rossing Center’s reporting on attacks against Christians in Israel and East Jerusalem says that in known 2024 cases, the perpetrators were Jewish individuals, “primarily young men from ultra-Orthodox and national-religious circles,” driven by a mix of nationalist fervor and religious extremism, especially among ultra-Orthodox nationalist groups. The 2024 report documented 111 incidents, including physical attacks, attacks on church properties, harassment, and defacement, while coverage of the report noted that most victims were clergy or people wearing visible Christian symbols. The Rossing Center’s 2025 report says the harassment and violence are continuing to escalate across Israel and East Jerusalem. Your King James Bible clearly says that this lost world is preparing itself to receive Antichrist in the coming “strong delusion”. Today we bring you everything you need to know about the Jews, Christians, cults and the scripture of truth.

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: From Golden Statues To Passports With His Name And Image, Donald Trump Is Preparing America And The World For Antichrist

America’s 250th Anniversary Trump Passport And Golden Doral Statue Show The Nation Bowing Before Political Image Worship

No American president has ever branded himself across the national consciousness like Donald Trump. Washington didn’t do this, Lincoln didn’t do this, and Reagan did not do this. Donald Trump has fused the presidency with celebrity, merchandise, spectacle, and personal self-exaltation in a way absolutely unprecedented in American presidential history. He has branded himself as the image of America just as Stalin did in Russia and Adolf Hitler in Nazi Germany. Tell the Liberals to call off their rallies, they don’t have to worry about Donald Trump becoming a king, he is already a god.

“And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an oration unto them. And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man.“ Acts 12:21,22 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, there are moments in a nation’s decline when the symbolism becomes so obvious that it no longer needs interpretation. A golden statue of Donald Trump raising his fist now stands at Trump National Doral, and at nearly the same time, America is preparing limited-edition 250th anniversary passports featuring Trump’s image and gold signature above the name of the United States of America. That is not normal. That isn’t “patriotic branding.” That is the machinery of national identity being slowly bent around the image of one man. Reports say the passport design would mark the first time a living American president has appeared in a U.S. passport, a staggering break with American presidential tradition. The Bible tells us that one of the chief characteristics of Antichrist is not merely political power, but self-exaltation. He is not content to rule; he must be seen, admired, worshipped, and placed above all others. In our Constitutional Republic, the passport belongs to the citizen. The presidency belongs to the office, and the country belongs to the people. But when the ruler’s image is stamped onto the national identity document, when golden statues rise on elite properties, when one man’s name and face become the movement, the product, the brand, and the banner, we are no longer talking about ordinary politics. We are watching a dress rehearsal for the coming image-based worship system of Revelation 13, and we will prove that to you, and much, much more.

Today, we are literally and actually sounding the end times alarm that the Antichrist kingdom is being prepared in Washington DC, and that Donald Trump is the foreunner of the coming Antichrist.

Israel Set To Host The Middle East’s Largest LGBTQ+ Festival ‘Pride Land’ At The Dead Sea In A Mockery Of The God Who Burned Both Sodom And Gomorrha

Israel’s Pride Land Festival At The Dead Sea Is A Prophetic Slap In The Face To The God Who Burned Sodom And Gomorrha

There are moments when the Bible believer looks at the headlines and feels like they are watching the pages of Scripture rise up, walk off the page, and rebuke the modern world in real time. Israel’s planned Pride Land LGBTQ+ festival at the Dead Sea in June 2026 is one of those moments. Think about the arrogance of it! The very people, the Jews, to whom “were committed the oracles of God”, the word of God, are now the same people who spit in God’s face promoting what He hates. At NTEB, we have always stood with the Jews, supported the nation of Israel and prayed for the peace of Jerusalem. But that support is not a ‘blank check’, and we absolutely call all Christians everywhere to stand against this ‘Pride Land at the Dead Sea’ abomination. Pray for the salvation of the Jews and Israel.

“But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.” Genesis 13:13 (KJB)

The Dead Sea region is not just a pretty desert backdrop for rainbow flags, DJs, hotel packages and global Pride tourism. It is the biblical landscape associated with Sodom and Gomorrha, a place forever linked in the word of God with rebellion, sexual perversion, divine wrath, and the fire of Almighty God falling from Heaven. The same God who rained brimstone and fire on Sodom is now being openly mocked by a generation that thinks judgment is impossible because they have festivals, branding, sponsors, hashtags and hotel reservations. But God is not mocked.

“Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.” Jude 7 (KJB)

That verse says Sodom and Gomorrha were set forth for an example. An example of what? An example of what happens when a people gives itself over to fornication and strange flesh. An example of what happens when sin is no longer hidden in shame, but paraded in the streets with pride. An example of what happens when man shakes his fist in the face of God and declares evil to be good. And now, in the very region where that example still screams from the pages of your King James Bible, Israel is preparing to host what is being promoted as the Middle East’s largest LGBT festival. That is not progress, that’s a provocation. What the world calls inclusion, God calls abomination.

“Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.” Leviticus 18:22 (KJB)

Now, you can put a rainbow over it, you can attach tourism dollars to it. You can call it diversity, equality, freedom, love, expression, identity or celebration. But the King James Bible still calls it what it is. Sin. It’s an abomination. And no committee, court, government, sponsor, activist group or religious compromiser has the authority to edit what God has already written.

This is the great deception of our day: sinners no longer want forgiveness, they want affirmation. They no longer want mercy from God, they want applause from man. They do not want the blood of Jesus Christ to cleanse them from sin; they want the world to reclassify sin as virtue. That is why Pride is such a perfect word for the movement. Pride was the original sin of Lucifer, and it remains the chief operating system of a world in rebellion against God. Israel, of all nations, should know better.

This is the land where the prophets preached. This is the land where the Law was given. This is the land where the Son of God walked, preached, healed, was rejected, crucified, buried, and rose again the third day according to the scriptures. This is the land where Jesus Christ will return at the Second Advent to rule and reign from Jerusalem. And yet, in that same land, the spirit of Sodom is being invited in, celebrated, platformed and packaged as a vacation experience. End times insanity.

That is why this story is so spiritually explosive, it shows you the condition of modern Israel: back in the land physically, but still in unbelief spiritually. God has preserved Israel. God has regathered Israel. God has plans for Israel. But modern Israel is not righteous simply because it is Israel. The ‘rightly dividing’ and dispensational Bible believer understands the difference between God’s covenant purposes for Israel and the present spiritual blindness of Israel.

“For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.” Romans 11:25 (KJB)

That blindness is on full display when the land of the prophets becomes a stage for the sins of Sodom. Don’t miss the prophetic irony. The Dead Sea is called dead for a reason. It is a lifeless, salt-choked body of water in a region that stands as a grim reminder of judgment. And now Pride Land wants to transform that barren desert into a “colorful pride city.” Man says, “Look what we can build.” God says, “Remember what I burned.”

“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;” Romans 1:18 (KJB)

Romans 1 is not ancient history. It is this morning’s headline. It is the moral map of the last days. When a people rejects the God of the Bible, God gives them up. Then He gives them up again. Then He gives them over. That is not revival. That is judgment already in motion.

“For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:” Romans 1:26 (KJB)

Hey man, that’s not hate speech, so don’t get mad at us for saying it. That is Holy Scripture. The Bible believer doesn’t rejoice in anyone’s destruction. We preach against sin because souls are at stake. The same Bible that condemns sodomy also offers salvation to the sodomite, the fornicator, the drunkard, the idolater, the liar, the thief, the religious hypocrite, and every lost sinner who will come to Jesus Christ by faith.

“And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.” 1 Corinthians 6:11 (KJB)

That is the message Pride Land will never preach. Pride says, “Celebrate yourself.” The gospel says, “Deny yourself.” Pride says, “Be who you are.” The gospel says, “Ye must be born again.” Pride says, “No repentance required.” The Bible says without repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ, there is no salvation. Modern Israel needs the same gospel the Gentile nations need. America needs it. Europe needs it. The Middle East needs it. The LGBTQ+ activist needs it. The religious Jew needs it. The Catholic priest needs it. The Baptist preacher needs it. The atheist needs it. Every sinner needs the shed blood of Jesus Christ.

But make no mistake: when Israel hosts a Pride festival by the Dead Sea, it is not a harmless cultural event. It is a prophetic alarm bell. It is Sodom remembered not with trembling, but with celebration. It is the last-days world wrapping itself in a rainbow and daring the God of Heaven to respond. And He will. The first time God judged Sodom with fire from Heaven. The next time, the whole world is headed for the fire of the Day of the Lord after the Church is removed in the Pretribulation Rapture and the time of Jacob’s trouble begins.

“The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the LORD come.” Joel 2:31 (KJB)

This is why we preach, this is why we warn, this is why we do not soften the edges, trim the verses, or apologize for the Book. The same Bible that tells us what happened to Sodom also tells us what is coming upon a Christ-rejecting world. Pride Land at the Dead Sea is not just crazy. It is a signpost. It is a warning. It is a flashing red light on the prophetic dashboard. The King is coming, but Israel is not even close to ready. But Israel will be made ready in the time of Jacob’s trouble. The gentile nations are not ready. The professing church is asleep. The world is drunk on pride, lust, money, religion, technology and rebellion. But Jesus Christ is ready, and the Bible believer had better be ready too. He is coming soon.
