Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference: 0:00 - Intro 1. 0:27 {About the Queen James Bible} What are your thoughts about the Queen James Bible, also known as the “Gay Bible”? Is this a blasphemous translation to be avoided, or did the QJV publishers have any linguistically valid reason to remove negative references to homosexuality from the Bible? Also, can the Holy Spirit still speak through heretical Bible translations? 2. 26:36 {Should Christians Leave Ungodly Areas?} Does the Bible say Christians should relocate their family (especially with young kids), or stop having kids altogether if evil/injustice continues to grow in their community? 3. 34:35 {Should We Only Help Others, Never Ourselves?} Is it a sin to help myself instead of others? I only know Scripture that tells me to give to others (Philippians). I'm often frustrated when I'm forced to help others when I need time myself. 4. 38:10 {Why is Only a Single Creator Obvious?} What about creation makes a singular Creator obvious, as Paul suggests? What keeps us from concluding that multiple deities created the different aspects of the universe? 5. 43:15 {What to Do if Your Pastor is Female} I've watched your Women in Ministry series and come to basically the same conclusions you have. However, I'm part of a church with a female lead pastor. How do I handle this? 6. 47:25 {Paul’s Hands vs. Jesus’ Hands} “These hands” provided for Paul in Acts 20: 34 NKJV & ESV. But “…of mine” (i.e., “these hands of mine”) is in some translations such as NIV & NET. Is Paul referring to Jesus’ hands or his OWN hands? 7. 54:55 {Are Angels Purely Spiritual, Not Physical?} How can we know that angels are spiritual beings and not potentially physical beings? Some people say they're spiritual and do not have reproductive organs (since Jesus said they're not given in marriage). 8. 58:12 {When Parents are Difficult} How does one biblically deal with an oppressive (but not abusive) parent? Lately they have been really stressed, anxious, and far from God. I’m not sure if they are truly a Christian. 9. 1:00:53 {Navigating a Difficult Marital Situation} Am I dishonoring God if I initiate separation? I’ve been married for over 12 years, always rocky. I've begged for counseling, but my husband (professing believer) said he'd pick divorce first. He says he no longer loves me. 10. 1:05:20 {Was Josiah Being Prideful?} In 2 Chronicles 35: 20-27, should Josiah have realized that it was God speaking (some suggest he was prideful)?
So Mike, would you say that if you know you don’t wanna have kids you shouldn’t get married? I think that’s what I heard. And if that’s true does the Bible teach us not to have sexual relations outside of marriage? So if that’s also true then is it biblical for People who do not want to have children to remain celibate?
Mike, I enjoyed your brief take on presidential elections being existential for many people. But if I truly believe that, if a certain orange candidate wins the presidency, it wouldn’t be the end of my life, but it would be the end of democracy in , what does the Bible tell me to do to prevent this from happening?
"maybe we are not gonna be Christians, but maybe we can make Christians more like us". What a great phrase to describe satan's plan against Christianity.

My old Anglican church took on a female . She was also a Charismatic and bit by bit the church strayed into false teaching & charismatic madness. I left. I went to another Anglican church. The pastor was male but over the years female preachers & pastors were taken on under his leadership. I loved & still love the people there. I knew I should leave but didn't. Eventually, COVID & ill health decided that for me. I started doing church online but felt convicted to go to a physical church. I tried a couple of churches always sitting at the back near the exit so as to make a quick escape once any unbiblical preaching started😂. God led me to a Baptist church that is not only biblical but also does expository preaching - my favourite style of learning. 😊😊😊
I went to an Anglican Church after I was saved in late 2020 (Tasmania had much fewer restrictions due to being an island) and the priest was a woman with pink hair. A gay couple did the flower arrangements. As a denomination it has changed drastically since I was a kid growing up in the church. I found a charismatic church which has biblically sound teachings.
@@dibdap2373 Hebrews 10:23-25 NASB2020 [23] Let’s hold firmly to the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful; [24] and let’s consider how to encourage one another in love and good deeds, [25] not abandoning our own meeting together, as is the habit of some people, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near.

The creation of the church as a means for divorce to be deemed "acceptable" within the church and the King of England to be its head is beyond bizarre to me and I often wonder why people go along with it. But I don't know any Anglicans personally to ask them this.
Mike you have change my life in ways you cannot understand. Brother your teachings have improved the way I viewed the Bible. Your deep research on topics are amazing and I thank you brother for your commitment to God and the scripture. I love you brother keep leading people to the truth (Christ)✊🏼👍🏼
Although I have other "pastors", Mike has become "my pastor" over the last couple of years. This is the only place I feel I am getting the best answers without agenda. Thanks Mike. I wish you had more time for individuals, but that is not going to be possible in this world. Maybe in the next.
Thanks for continuing to provide carefully researched, biblically sound content. I’ve aggravated some egalitarian twitter friends by defending your work on women in ministry, but I wouldn’t be taking that sort of heat if I didn’t think your research was trustworthy.
Psalm 101:3 "I will set nothing wicked before my eyes; I hate the work of those who fall away; it shall not cling to me." (If you keep looking, it will cling to you, and you will fall away. Perhaps it's lust, porn, evil video games, horror movies, gluttony...or any other temptation or sin.) (This verse came to mind during this Q & A.)
Mike, thank you, Your Ministry helps me strenghthen my relationship with Jesus and understand the bible. I've been reading it more. From what I understand so far, I am to love the lord God almighty with all of my heart and soul and mind and strength. And to love my neighbor as myself. And to look to christ throughout my days As a means of trust in him, And encouragement. To know that I have eternal life resting in his promises. That I am saved by grace, not by works. And any expressions of works that I do have uphold the truthfulness of the faith that I hold for our lord in saviour Jesus Christ, one with the father co equal in glory.
Great to hear Mike is working on a book. His videos are a great blessing. It would’ve fantastic to have a whole lot of his responses turned into a handy-dandy Q & A book with essential topics set out alphabetically.
I agree with you, Christina. I would go even further. Don't listen to anything that is even from any Protestant or Anglican speaker because they have zero Authority since they contradict the scripture's.
congrats on starting to write a book!!! i’ve been watching the 20 questions episodes but i’m a few years behind, so this is the first i’ve heard of it. will definitely be preordering/ purchasing!!
You have to love the wayback machine. Took about 5 minutes to find the guys name. The things people will do to justify sin. Can you imagine standing before the Lord after writing a book like this? I pray their hearts are softened and they come to know the Lord.
I was going to attend my first live ever and ask a question a lot like #2, but I missed it. Then I come back and I see this. Thank you to God, thank you for the question and answer
I’m the guy with question #6. Thanks for taking my question Mike! Just some added context I couldn’t fit in under the limit: The way I FIRST read Acts 20:34 in my NKJV in context with the previous verses is that Paul was giving credit to Jesus’ hands [since I interpret “the word of His grace” in 20: 32 to be Jesus]. But yeah, I’m now pretty sold on Paul referring to his own hands. 👐
Really like the new 10 questions weekly format. Thanks so much Mike for all you do. And for the discussion of the QJB - especially your commentary about how other bible translators work (or should work!) Have a great weekend :)
The Lord wouldn’t want His children to attend either church-LDS or the one with a female lead pastor. They’re both going against His will. I would recommend leaving asap. If you have a vehicle drive further, leave town. If that is not an option you can also deepen your relationship with the Lord and worship at home/online. The Lord would prefer that over the first two options.
@PROJECT.LUKE.ONE.75 hello brother/sister. I would be very careful about saying straight out that "the Lord would prefer" such and such stating it as a fact and speaking for God. It would be better to say "probably" or "in my opinion" or something of the like and then giving a reason. It is just a very strong statement to make and to come off as if it is a fact and you are speaking on God's behalf. Because there are a lot of factors in people's lives and circumstances and not every circumstance is the same. And so every person's circumstance will make the best decision for them different. It is not something to divide over or call people non Christians because they do so (you didn't do that, I am just speaking in general). Just wanted to say that in case you didn't realize. God bless
@@colinmattsthe definition of fear when we say “fear God” is different than the usual definition of fear. It doesn’t mean actual fear; it means awe, reverence and respect.
The QJB isn't meant to be referenced to, that's why it's formatted in a way that is impossible to learn where verses and texts are, or to find things when you need them... This book is made to be showed on your table or shelf so that others can see what you believe.
Keep the faith people! And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end, that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises. Hebrews 6:11-12
I'm reminded of Mike Warnke who was popular during the Satanic panic of the 80's. Claimed he had been a Warlock and super evil and then got saved. Lots of people got saved listening to him and reading his book and it came out later that he had lied about almost all of it. He was lying but God still used him. God can use whatever and whomever He wants. I think it also depends on the heart of the listener or in the case of the QJV the reader. If they are truly seeking, God can use it.
I understand the concern about children in our current times with the way our world is heading. However, when we look at the grand scheme of it all.... we still live in a privileged time with many modern comforts. I don't see why now out of all times in history would be the time to say no, no kids. This world needs new, better generations raised under the Lord.
...just another attempt to take the Glory from His word.... thankfully, we have intellectuals with a heart for Jesus to take the time and apply the truth.... thanks Mike.......
I am trying to find balance between taking care of myself or serving others. My battery is drained for sure because demands to be there for others were so high for so long. Definitely spending time focusing on my self but allotting a limited time to volunteer and serve really has helped charge my battery. I guess you know it is the right amount… energized by serving rather than drained by it.
Ok, so a question for Mike... Life on the line, you had to choose only ONE bible for the rest of your life and your choices are: 1) The Queen James Bible; or 2) The Passion Translation Go.
The QJB only messes with and edits passages concerning one issue, the Passion Translation adds wild things to several passages of any kind, making its edits much less predictable and recognizable. So my choice would be the QJB.
Regarding leaving any church for Biblical reasons, it really is best to make it clear to those who stay why you are leaving, because otherwise rumors are likely to spread as to why you disappeared.
Makes sense this was printed in Las Vegas. Amazon has a cheap quality book printing farm in Las Vegas. I’ve ordered physical copies of digital books or other obscure books on Amazon, and got copies with this exact same terrible small font, poor formatting, and cheap binding-with a note in the back that it was “printed” in Las Vegas dated literally the same day or day after I placed my order. 😂
As for angels not looking human I disagree with you, did you forget: Hebrews 13:1-2 13 Let brotherly love continue. 2 Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
Thank you, that was the scripture verse that popped up for me as well. Thank you for your work in ministry, Mike. God's blessings to you and looking forward to reading your upcoming book. -Gabriel of Norway.
Thank you so much, Mike. Love your work! 😊 One point: I don't understand why people would want to change God's Word to match their own desires. To say that you are a Christian while at the same time rejecting any part of what Jesus Christ taught is fallacious. How can you trust a person like that about anything?
I would like his thoughts also. My Wife, who loves watching Mike and goes by scroogeswife on here, and I have many Bibles of different Word for Word translations and have been using the LSB as our main Bible for awhile now and love it.
During the question about multiple creators you did a better job of describing the concept of Occam's Razor than anyone I've ever heard. Well done sir.
The editing, typeface and spelling is so poor it’s like they aren’t serious Bible scholars and have just put the book out to support their pre-determined position.
Good job mike as usual. Starting my own channel. As we need to talk about Jesus more look how the world is. Only 1 video so far but i appreciate the support.
Pastor Mike. Im sorry you had to look at The Queen James. I had never heard of it. What will be next? Stranger time. Im shaking my head in disbelief everyday.
It is a false "bible" no doubt but, ironically, it is more sound than the Passion translation as, apart from those 8 passages, it is the NKJV (as Mike pointed out, I have not read either all the way through personally) whereas the passion "translator" made sure to change almost every passage.
It's the name-calling technique used by people who don't want to discuss issues because their side has no weight. The only way they win is to shut down the debate before it starts.
@@colinmatts You are calling me a made up nonsensical word that you are sure has a legitimate meaning while at the same time doubting that there is a God. The irony. Like I said, the word has no meaning. No one is irrationally afraid of sodomites. NO ONE. We do believe that they are deviant and are on their way to Hell unless they repent though. You can't practice sin as a lifestyle and get away with it. This goes for any sin. Lying, stealing, adultery, drunkenness, fornication and h0m0sexual behavior. You see, when you have no legitimate argument to justify your sinful behavior you employ ad hominem attacks. You call people "bigots" or made up words like "h0m0phobe". Or you employ emotional appeals that are not based in science, reality or theology. Things like, "I was born this way", "why do you care what goes on in our bedroom" or "love is love".
Why is it that the world always makes parody of anything Jesus Christ or God related. You will never see them do a book on the Quran. Unless they repent, God will have the final judgment. I know it's just a book, but I would feel frightened to have that book in my house. Smh!
Have they not read in the last chapter of the Bible, in Revelation 18-19 what will happen if any man adds to or takes away from the words of this book? Woe unto the man
I’m loving the every Friday 10 Qs. Less time commitment (but I listened to all women in ministry so I guess that’s not an issue 😂) and I just like getting it more often! Fun!
To question 3.. you have to look afteryourself and others... im a mother, I obviously love, care for and feed my children but I have to do those things for myself. Personally I feed my children before I feed myself. I love my children more than I love myself. I give to my children more than I give myself. But I'm not totally negligent to myself.
When I saw the cover and you opened it, I seriously thought to myself, "That looks like it was made in someone's basement with a copy machine". The CHEAP that went into the QJV is comical. But I am glad that it is cheap, so people will know to stay away.
There is nothing about that book is Godly, Proverbs 30:5-6 says “”“Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him. Do not add to his words, or he will rebuke you and prove you a liar.“
The Queen James Bible belongs in the flames YOU DO NOT MOCK GOD especially the Word of God and get away with it Galatians 6:7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. His Word is ABOVE HIS NAME Psalm 138:2 I will worship toward Your holy temple, And praise Your name For Your lovingkindness and Your truth; For You have magnified Your word above all Your name. There are NO EXCUSES at the Great White Throne Judgment they will be accountable to God for adding to His Word.
Because there a a lot of people calling themselves Christians who would be eager to make them martyrs to their unholy cause if they knew who they were.
For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.
I love the grounded reality of this channel!!! Retirement took a toll on my finances, but with my involvement in the digital market, $27,000 weekly returns has been life changing. AWESOME GOD❤️
Only God knows how much grateful i am. After so much struggles I now own a new house and my family is happy once again everything is finally falling into place!!

@@Notevenone Thanks for the info.
I will do that.
@@Sue-xt7fk you are prayed over and loved
Please stand strong for Christ, in days to come the severity of apostasy only would scale up ...
Although I have other "pastors", Mike has become "my pastor" over the last couple of years. This is the only place I feel I am getting the best answers without agenda. Thanks Mike. I wish you had more time for individuals, but that is not going to be possible in this world. Maybe in the next.
Thanks for continuing to provide carefully researched, biblically sound content.
I’ve aggravated some egalitarian twitter friends by defending your work on women in ministry, but I wouldn’t be taking that sort of heat if I didn’t think your research was trustworthy.
I think I appreciate your “10 Questions” format, as it allows to not be in a rush, and delve a bit deeper into each question. God bless. 😌🌹🙏🏽
Psalm 101:3 "I will set nothing wicked before my eyes; I hate the work of those who fall away; it shall not cling to me." (If you keep looking, it will cling to you, and you will fall away. Perhaps it's lust, porn, evil video games, horror movies, gluttony...or any other temptation or sin.) (This verse came to mind during this Q & A.)
Even if I was on the very liberal end of the theology, having a whole Bible version dedicated to one secondary issue is bizarre to me.
I mean they make their entire lives about it so it sort of makes sense.
It's not a secondary issue

Mike, thank you, Your Ministry helps me strenghthen my relationship with Jesus and understand the bible. I've been reading it more. From what I understand so far, I am to love the lord God almighty with all of my heart and soul and mind and strength. And to love my neighbor as myself. And to look to christ throughout my days As a means of trust in him, And encouragement. To know that I have eternal life resting in his promises. That I am saved by grace, not by works. And any expressions of works that I do have uphold the truthfulness of the faith that I hold for our lord in saviour Jesus Christ, one with the father co equal in glory.
Great to hear Mike is working on a book. His videos are a great blessing. It would’ve fantastic to have a whole lot of his responses turned into a handy-dandy Q & A book with essential topics set out alphabetically.
What part of the video did he mention a book, please? 😊
Friends don't let friends listen to Benny Hinn. I love it!!!😅
I agree with you, Christina. I would go even further. Don't listen to anything that is even from any Protestant or Anglican speaker because they have zero Authority since they contradict the scripture's.
Disgusting to see they published the book on Amazon as the author being “God”.
congrats on starting to write a book!!! i’ve been watching the 20 questions episodes but i’m a few years behind, so this is the first i’ve heard of it. will definitely be preordering/ purchasing!!
You have to love the wayback machine. Took about 5 minutes to find the guys name. The things people will do to justify sin. Can you imagine standing before the Lord after writing a book like this? I pray their hearts are softened and they come to know the Lord.
I was going to attend my first live ever and ask a question a lot like #2, but I missed it. Then I come back and I see this. Thank you to God, thank you for the question and answer
Another pastor I have found quite similar to Mike: Pastor David Guzik.
Wise man, and his scripture understanding seems accurate or sound.
Yes I love his commentaries on blue letter bible!!!
His commentary is also an app called “Enduring Word”
I’m the guy with question #6. Thanks for taking my question Mike! Just some added context I couldn’t fit in under the limit:
The way I FIRST read Acts 20:34 in my NKJV in context with the previous verses is that Paul was giving credit to Jesus’ hands [since I interpret “the word of His grace” in 20: 32 to be Jesus].
But yeah, I’m now pretty sold on Paul referring to his own hands. 👐
Really like the new 10 questions weekly format. Thanks so much Mike for all you do. And for the discussion of the QJB - especially your commentary about how other bible translators work (or should work!) Have a great weekend :)
Love the answer to question 5, we must fear God more than man and we answer to Him and His word.
The Lord wouldn’t want His children to attend either church-LDS or the one with a female lead pastor. They’re both going against His will. I would recommend leaving asap. If you have a vehicle drive further, leave town. If that is not an option you can also deepen your relationship with the Lord and worship at home/online. The Lord would prefer that over the first two options.
@PROJECT.LUKE.ONE.75 hello brother/sister. I would be very careful about saying straight out that "the Lord would prefer" such and such stating it as a fact and speaking for God. It would be better to say "probably" or "in my opinion" or something of the like and then giving a reason. It is just a very strong statement to make and to come off as if it is a fact and you are speaking on God's behalf. Because there are a lot of factors in people's lives and circumstances and not every circumstance is the same. And so every person's circumstance will make the best decision for them different. It is not something to divide over or call people non Christians because they do so (you didn't do that, I am just speaking in general).
Just wanted to say that in case you didn't realize.
God bless
Why must we fear God?
@@colinmattsthe definition of fear when we say “fear God” is different than the usual definition of fear. It doesn’t mean actual fear; it means awe, reverence and respect.
@@EphemeralProductions Why would you have "awe, reverence or respect" for a thing you can't know even exists
Appreciate all the work you put into these teachings! God bless your ministry!
The QJB isn't meant to be referenced to, that's why it's formatted in a way that is impossible to learn where verses and texts are, or to find things when you need them... This book is made to be showed on your table or shelf so that others can see what you believe.
So it's virtue signaling: the translation.
God bless you for what you do and for bringing God’s truth and clarity to a very confused world.
Keep the faith people!
And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end,
that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
Hebrews 6:11-12
God bless you brother! Thank you for all of your efforts to bless your brothers and sisters in Christ!
So in theory, thieves and murderers could change the scriptures which claim those behaviors are sin. They don't care about truth. God is Truth. †
I love this channel! Im always inspired by Mike when im doing my videos! God bless you brother!!
God, please help us to follow you, Jesus Christ, walking with you daily ❤
Having children is co-creating with God. It's an incredible blessing❤
*Adoption* also makes one more like God!
It is so cool how God gives us the opportunity to be His coworkers.
How do you know God created anything?
@@colinmatts Do you really care or are you just fishing for an argument?
@@mrmichaelencke I'm genuinely interested how anyone can KNOW how God created anything
It doesn't matter what people write, truth is truth..when God say it ,it is so....
How do you know what God ever said? Or, that it was the truth?
Great points on how God can use anything, even if it is distorted, yet that does not make what is distorted good or acceptable.
What is "distorted" about homosexuality?
@@colinmattsIt's the QJV that's distorted. Homosexuality is just sin and outright wrong.
I'm reminded of Mike Warnke who was popular during the Satanic panic of the 80's. Claimed he had been a Warlock and super evil and then got saved. Lots of people got saved listening to him and reading his book and it came out later that he had lied about almost all of it. He was lying but God still used him. God can use whatever and whomever He wants. I think it also depends on the heart of the listener or in the case of the QJV the reader. If they are truly seeking, God can use it.
I understand the concern about children in our current times with the way our world is heading. However, when we look at the grand scheme of it all.... we still live in a privileged time with many modern comforts. I don't see why now out of all times in history would be the time to say no, no kids. This world needs new, better generations raised under the Lord.
At this point, where is the rick james bible?
😆😆😆. Exactly
😭😭😭
...just another attempt to take the Glory from His word.... thankfully, we have intellectuals with a heart for Jesus to take the time and apply the truth.... thanks Mike.......
It should be called the Queen James book
The Queen James Blasphemy
The Queen James Abomination
Our LORD took the 'risk' with us....he created knowing how we would be❤
Thank you for this. Blessings 😊
Great job Mike. How very sad such measures of being taken and souls are being lost.
This breaks my heart
Thanks for telling the truth Mike
More people should be honest with their self and tell the truth
Thanks for the video Mike! I better get back to work.
I am trying to find balance between taking care of myself or serving others. My battery is drained for sure because demands to be there for others were so high for so long. Definitely spending time focusing on my self but allotting a limited time to volunteer and serve really has helped charge my battery. I guess you know it is the right amount… energized by serving rather than drained by it.
On question 3. If you neglect your work in order to help the homeless, you will soon be homeless.
Oh Good Lord it's far worse than i thought! All i can say is there's going to be alot of surprises on Judgement Day!
Ok, so a question for Mike...
Life on the line, you had to choose only ONE bible for the rest of your life and your choices are:
1) The Queen James Bible; or
2) The Passion Translation
Go.
I don't see any Bibles on this list. 🧐🤔😉
I’d take the Captain Kirk option and change the rules.
The QJB only messes with and edits passages concerning one issue, the Passion Translation adds wild things to several passages of any kind, making its edits much less predictable and recognizable. So my choice would be the QJB.
Passion translation 😊
thank you mr winger ,,,,you give good bibical answers and your thoughts on many issues .
Regarding leaving any church for Biblical reasons, it really is best to make it clear to those who stay why you are leaving, because otherwise rumors are likely to spread as to why you disappeared.
Church is family so that does make sense. Not to slam, but to lay out reasons biblically.
I agree as well.
Makes sense this was printed in Las Vegas. Amazon has a cheap quality book printing farm in Las Vegas. I’ve ordered physical copies of digital books or other obscure books on Amazon, and got copies with this exact same terrible small font, poor formatting, and cheap binding-with a note in the back that it was “printed” in Las Vegas dated literally the same day or day after I placed my order. 😂
Yep. That’s exactly what it says in my copy here.
@@MikeWinger 😂 Nice
@@MikeWingerSo can I call the Queen James bible, the "Sin City Edition"?
Having itchy ears not hearing the truth. Well the lost will do that . Let God be the Judge and we have to distance ourselves from this evil.
As for angels not looking human I disagree with you, did you forget:
Hebrews 13:1-2
13 Let brotherly love continue. 2 Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
The angels who met with Abraham and Sarah were most certainly in human form.
The Biblical definition of angel also includes pastor and messenger.
Thank you, that was the scripture verse that popped up for me as well.
Thank you for your work in ministry, Mike. God's blessings to you and looking forward to reading your upcoming book.

Im genuinely crying watching this.
Utter BLASPHEMY!!!!!! Lord help them all! 😳🤢💔🙏 Why would ppl even purchase it??? It puts money their pocket!!!
The love of money is the root of all evil
Blasphemy against what? The immoral bigotry of the bible?
Who knows? The kids you bring into this world, with your good guidance & directlon could change the world!
Thank you so much, Mike. Love your work! 😊
One point: I don't understand why people would want to change God's Word to match their own desires.
To say that you are a Christian while at the same time rejecting any part of what Jesus Christ taught is fallacious. How can you trust a person like that about anything?
I think it’s to mock His word😢 God help them. Hard hearts & desire to lead ppl astray however possible is my guess.
I very much appreciate this channel. Informative. Thank you.!!
Hey there Mike from Western Australia, love your thorough ministry, would you consider doing a review on the new Legacy Standard Bible? God bless
I would like his thoughts also. My Wife, who loves watching Mike and goes by scroogeswife on here, and I have many Bibles of different Word for Word translations and have been using the LSB as our main Bible for awhile now and love it.
During the question about multiple creators you did a better job of describing the concept of Occam's Razor than anyone I've ever heard. Well done sir.
The editing, typeface and spelling is so poor it’s like they aren’t serious Bible scholars and have just put the book out to support their pre-determined position.
Almost like they knew no one would crack it open!
Good job mike as usual. Starting my own channel. As we need to talk about Jesus more look how the world is. Only 1 video so far but i appreciate the support.
They lost me at “edited”.
fr, you dont edit the word of God.
Rev 22:18
Whoever made this… may God have mercy on their soul.
YASS GO OFF QUEEN 💅💅
Pastor Mike. Im sorry you had to look at The Queen James. I had never heard of it. What will be next? Stranger time. Im shaking my head in disbelief everyday.
It is a false "bible" no doubt but, ironically, it is more sound than the Passion translation as, apart from those 8 passages, it is the NKJV (as Mike pointed out, I have not read either all the way through personally) whereas the passion "translator" made sure to change almost every passage.
You may be the proud owner of all twenty copies that have ever been sold
My parents worried about whether they should have kids back in the 1960s! I think it's a good thing that generation decided to go ahead with it.
There's NO such thing as "h0m0ph0bic". It's a term made up by sodomites to discredit Christians that disagree with them.
How about BIBLE-O-PHOBIC? Does this ever get a mention these days? 🙄 .
It's the name-calling technique used by people who don't want to discuss issues because their side has no weight. The only way they win is to shut down the debate before it starts.
Of course there's such a thing as "homophobic". You appear to be one. Now, whether there's such a thing as God or not is a whole other matter
@@colinmatts You are calling me a made up nonsensical word that you are sure has a legitimate meaning while at the same time doubting that there is a God. The irony. Like I said, the word has no meaning. No one is irrationally afraid of sodomites. NO ONE. We do believe that they are deviant and are on their way to Hell unless they repent though. You can't practice sin as a lifestyle and get away with it. This goes for any sin. Lying, stealing, adultery, drunkenness, fornication and h0m0sexual behavior. You see, when you have no legitimate argument to justify your sinful behavior you employ ad hominem attacks. You call people "bigots" or made up words like "h0m0phobe". Or you employ emotional appeals that are not based in science, reality or theology. Things like, "I was born this way", "why do you care what goes on in our bedroom" or "love is love".
Come soon, Lord Jeus
I hope you didn’t have to pay money for that book!
I can't believe you got a hour long tutorial on this😂
Why is it that the world always makes parody of anything Jesus Christ or God related. You will never see them do a book on the Quran. Unless they repent, God will have the final judgment. I know it's just a book, but I would feel frightened to have that book in my house. Smh!
Have they not read in the last chapter of the Bible, in Revelation 18-19 what will happen if any man adds to or takes away from the words of this book? Woe unto the man
I’m loving the every Friday 10 Qs. Less time commitment (but I listened to all women in ministry so I guess that’s not an issue 😂) and I just like getting it more often! Fun!
To question 3.. you have to look afteryourself and others... im a mother, I obviously love, care for and feed my children but I have to do those things for myself. Personally I feed my children before I feed myself. I love my children more than I love myself. I give to my children more than I give myself. But I'm not totally negligent to myself.
The Queen James Almost Bible!
Missed it by only 8 verses
When I saw the cover and you opened it, I seriously thought to myself, "That looks like it was made in someone's basement with a copy machine". The CHEAP that went into the QJV is comical. But I am glad that it is cheap, so people will know to stay away.
There is nothing about that book is Godly, Proverbs 30:5-6 says “”“Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him. Do not add to his words, or he will rebuke you and prove you a liar.“
PREACH IT my brother
tearing apart the QJV formatting first is 👌
and the Wayback research. 😅
The Queen James Bible belongs in the flames
YOU DO NOT MOCK GOD especially the Word of God and get away with it
Galatians 6:7
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.
His Word is ABOVE HIS NAME
Psalm 138:2
I will worship toward Your holy temple, And praise Your name
For Your lovingkindness and Your truth; For You have magnified Your word above all Your name.
There are NO EXCUSES at the Great White Throne Judgment they will be accountable to God for adding to His Word.
Im curious what the QJV says at the end of revelations about adding or removing any words
Oh dear, now we're going to have QJV-Only LGBT Bible advocates now!
God will not be mocked. God have mercy on these people.

Why would they not want the names known??? I mean bold enough to produce this book…. Really can’t make this stuff up.
Because there a a lot of people calling themselves Christians who would be eager to make them martyrs to their unholy cause if they knew who they were.
For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.
