I use the KJV, the reason why is because its the best Bible there is. Modern age bibles omit and add words, verses, change meanings, etc and thats a big no to the eyes of God. Deut 4:2

Lol KJV actually a NKJV at the moment. Looking at the various groups pitting their logical minds together against scripture and trying to reconcile and force meanings in those ancient texts to fit deductions that they have come to has been a heartwrenching endeavor that I gave up on long ago. It's seems more and more bibles are being translated according to scriptures based off westcott and hort. Literally they went through with a black marker and turned the text to look like a CIA document handed over to congress.

The main questions concerning what kind of bible has always been: what text is it based off of, and what was the intent of the committee or group compiling that text. A lot of bibles fall short in the first category simply because newer bibles being released seem to want to hide what they are based on. This creates a problem when trying to research where the bible came from let alone why they decided to make that version of it.

NKJV? That bible removes the word hell 23 times and replaces it with shoel and hades, (read what the words mean in pagan beliefs), the word devils, plural, is also omitted, also the word Godhead, omitted. now these things may not mean anything to you,bc u know about the deity of Christ, u know there are devils and not just one, u know what the diffrence between pagan ideas and christianity are, but what about those who dont know? God made a law, do not add or subtract, it should be followed to the very last period, we dont need a bibl that waters down the truth, we need one that is all about the truth no matter how hard it seems. the kjv does.

That's why I said I read it. Not whether it was the best or most accurate. Yes I have that understanding and know there is or will be a hell. But I also know that in some of those places Sheol and hades were referring to the grave. For most new believers the language barrier itself is overwhelming. But as any believer grows the Holy Spirit will probably guide them to search for a deeper understanding

That hunger for a deeper understanding should make them ask the questions. Like why does it say eagle and not angel in revelation in my bible.

I read both NIV, NKJV NASB, TEV... This is because English is like my -th language and sometimes reading them all the word hell- gehana is jehanamu in swahili which happens to be my 1st language
