By Dr. Samuel C. Gipp, Th.D.
A Helpbook for Christians
62 common questions and answers dealing with the KJV Bible and other translations, according to the understanding of the author. There are numerous questions and statements used by critics of the King James Bible to attack and destroy the faith of anyone who really believes that the Bible is infallible. Those who don’t have a college education in Biblical studies are often bullied for their lack of formal education, even though, for practical purposes, they have done more serious study of the Bible than many doctored critics. Yet the “trick questions“ are often intimidating. This book is written to equip the “ordinary” Christian to defend him or herself.
1 question per short chapter, so the material is easy to sort through to find what you need. Questions range from translation problems to sources of the translations, contradictions, and many other questions. Designed so laymen can understand the issues involved with Bible translations.
