In any event, I don't see how the KJV's choice of terms is misleading unless one doesn't study the Biblical usage of the terms. (Possible exception would be 'baptizo'/baptize.... I don't know if any passages define the usage of the term to demonstrate immersion as opposed to pouring or sprinkling... So one might need a lexicon or dictionary for that one...)

What is the difference between "Overseer" and "Bishop" other than a Star Wars like villian sounding name?
Why Congregation, assembly and not church? Especially when the word refers to the entire world wide body of believers?
Apostle comes from the Greek word Apostello
