Show me what verses you are speaking about.

Deut. 21 10-14, and I think Rico put it best when he said I was having a crisis of faith. I was raised in the UPC but have a lot of questions that no one seem to take seriously... people seem to think I am joking when I ask them.

No. You are not reading my words. The whole issue on preference of KJV versus other versions is the veracity of the differences in the New Testament ALONE.

So the Old Testament was not translated into Elizabethian English in 1611? And The Acrophya was not removed?

I do not think you're joking. I am just wondering about your confidence in God. If it has been hurt, then this explains your statements.

I trust God. So when it comes to questions I have in the bible, I trust there is a good answer although I may not know what it may be at the time. So I have faith in the Word of God, as well. It worked for me when I obeyed it, and so when questions arise I have confidence there is a good answer and patiently study to see what the answer is.

Again, the issue is NEW TESTAMENT DIFFERENCES and their veracity. That is why people discuss KJV versus other versions.
