I feel like I’m beating a dead horse here, but here is some more evidence...

Well, you certanily not bringing up anything new, that is for sure.

The King James translators used the right Hebrew and Greek texts.

Modern versions do not.

There are no errors in the King James, and you haven't proven one yet.

But as I said, the King James translators knew that their work would be attacked.

So that if, on the one side, we shall be traduced by Popish Persons at home and abroad, who therefore malign us, because we are poor instruments to make God's holy Truth to be yet more and more known unto the people, whom they desire still to keep in ignorance and darkness; of if, on the other side, we shall be maligned by self-conceited Brethren, who run their own ways, and give the liking unto nothing, but what is framed by themselves, and hammered on their own anvil; we may rest secure, supported within by the truth and innocency of good conscience, having walked the ways of simplicity and intergity, as before the Lord, and subtained without by the powerful protection of Your Majesty's grace and favour, which will ever give countenance to honest and Christian endeavours against bitter censures and uncharitable imputations.-Epistle Dedicatory

But I am still waiting for you to explain Heb.8:11 in the light of the fact that you say that the New Covenant refers to the believer today.

If we are in the New Covenant today, everyone must know the Lord!

This attack on the King James is simply a red herring to avoid dealing with the issue that this began with, sabbath observance for the Christian.

But don't let scripture get in the way of doing what you want to do!

I am sure there must be some translation somewhere that will twist the verse to make it fit your theology-just keep looking!

And ofcourse, you can always do what alot of your friends do, go to the interlinears and Strongs and just deny what the verse actually says in every translation!

There are those who think KJV is actually the original scriptures! That just amazes me. (Not a translation in other words)
