The more this is discussed the more Sean's reasoning gets murkier.

No one is against the KJV, we are just not opposed to people using E-sword, LOGOS, or the WORD. I would imagine that Sean, is dead set against any sort of Bible programs. As he clearly posted that the use of the Strong's Concordance can lead people astray by them trying to find DEEPER MEANINGS?

Scott, no Bro. Seagraves, Nor Mark, nor any of them are qualified as translators....nor any of us for that matter.

Bro. Seagraves is a modern day English speaking Bible TEACHER...not translator.

What qualifies a person as a translator ? Being a teacher does not automatically disqualify a person from being a translator, does it ?

You must know the language you are translating from very meticulously(no guessing at all)

How many languages does Sean speak ? Have you ever translated or interpreted for others ?

If the material is not overly complex, translating the NT is not that hard.

Segraves is quite capable of serving on a translation team.

Do you know Elizabethan that well? Are you an expert scholar of 17th century English?

Brother Pitta, I understand, but could you explain just a little more? Why is it not hard? Why would Brother Segraves be capable of serving on a translation team?
