Wonderful Flat Tire!

     Our car tire was quickly going flat!  My wife Karen travels a lot for her work.  I always worry about her car breaking down on the side of the road somewhere.  This trip to Albuquerque was a rare time where we were traveling together.  Thankfully, we were by a gas station which had a half-working air machine, because our spare was also flat.  We changed the tire, aired up the spare and drove to a nearby tire shop.  We drove home safely on some new tires.   I am thankful that my wife wasn’t by herself, stranded out in the middle of nowhere.  She was thankful that we were not driving on the interstate highway when the tire went completely flat!  Were our circumstances a lucky coincidence?  I thought it was a miracle, flat tire!  God is good!

King James Only Problems

       The King James only viewpoint has a few problems.  First of all, the King James Bible simply has more words and verses than the early Hebrew and Greek manuscripts.  It doesn’t have additional doctrine but it does have more words.  This is why King James only preachers do not unusually refer to Greek and Hebrew manuscripts.  Modern translations rely on the early Greek and Hebrew manuscripts, which simply     have fewer words than the KJV.  When preachers say that the KJV is the only correct version, they are saying that God failed to keep his word from being corrupted through the centuries and that the KJV had to be written to save the day.   If God cannot keep His promises , this is a big problem!  If God could not preserve His word in the early Hebrew and Greek manuscripts, how can we know that God will able to preserve the KJV today?   On the contrary, I believe God keeps His promises.  The thousands of early Hebrew and Greek manuscripts demonstrate God’s ability to preserve his WORD - the Bible’s eternal doctrines.   God is good and He keeps His promises!
