We read Bibles translated by them, and denounce that they might have an ounce of the Holy Ghost. We've become shottish children, drunken with our own arrogance and pride.
Can't we see... these great men were being used of God to reform the church? We wouldn't exist today if not for them? We'd be void of so much without the innovations of churches still steeped in so much "Christian tradition"? We wouldn't even have a King James Bible if we denounced all things that weren't Apostolic!

The King James Bible is an Anglican (English Catholic) trinitarian Bible, promoted by a pervert (King James), authorized by civil government for use in the government/state church, and forced upon some who did not want to bow to that church/state .
