When You Forget, You're Lost

For close to four hundred years the King James Bible was the default Bible for English-speaking Christians. It was part of the culture and part of the language. The KJV acted as a glue that helped to maintain the Anglosphere.

But about one hundred years ago the undermining of the influence of the KJV began with the introduction of the Revised Version, the Revised standard version, the Living Translation, et al. The excuse for the translations has always been "more accurate, more readable" . The real reason is, "more profitable". All the new translation garner royalties for the translation organizations, while the KJV does not.

Those who downgrade the intelligence of the average Christian have pushed the new translations to the point that here, in Southern California, the average evangelical is using the New International Version and has no knowledge of the KJV.

It is a sad thing to see the KJV shunted aside by those who want to be more "modern" or more "relevant".

The price of this foolishness is now being paid:

Elizabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff recently made a speech that is of interest. There are two things, for Christian-Americans that are of special interest. The first is that she, at one time, thought that the Universal Declaration of Human Rights would protect her right to speak freely. The second is that she states that Europe needs and American First Amendment, especially the right to Free Speech. What is interesting about this is that the United States Bill of Rights posits that the rights of the individual are given by God, not the government. And the government has no right to deprive the citizen of those rights. Ms. Sabaditsch-Wolff is a secularist, and yet she wants rights that are considered in the US as God-given rights:
