Job 32:6 King James Version (KJV) And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are very old; wherefore I was afraid, and durst not shew you mine opinion.

This is but one of the four times the word opinion appears in the KJV. If God does not talk about a subject in great detail, one tends to assume it isn’t important.

“Whenever I am doing my bible studies, the Holy Spirit brings reminders to me in the King James Version because that is where I placed those bible verses into the storage locker of my memory for further use. When I receive a word from the Lord it is often found in the KJV but His meaning and intent is not located in that translation and I must search elsewhere.”

This is the opinion I ended with yesterday. It is my opinion that God has more to say than what I can convey by using the KJV. When it comes to stating His meaning and intent not located in the KJV that is not opinion. It is a relationship. I would not know His meaning or intent without this relationship.

God’s meaning and intentions will be found in relationships not bible versions. He can and will speak to each of us as He knows we are best suited to receive it. The better the relationship the easier it is to understand meaning and intent in any version.

I do not like certain versions and therefore I tend not to study in those versions. Occasionally I am led to use one of them to convey a message from them because it serves God’s will to do so. Whoever receives it does so because of God’s will and not my intentions. That is not my opinion, it is a statement of my relationship with God.

His opinion is the only right opinion.
