Translations
I used the KJV until I was 22 when I went to Bible College. I then changed to RSV, now I use the NIV. Sometimes I dig out my old KJV and get tongue tied when trying to read it, yet when I taught Good News Club, we found that for memorising, the kids were able to manage the KJV better. Perhaps 'cause it's more poetic. We are pretty privileged to have so many to choose from. We have had some people not come back to our church because we rarely use the KJV - after all as the old lady said "if the KJV was good enough for the Apostle Paul then it's good enough for me"
