But since you are not KJV only, I won't be quoting scripture from the KJV anymore, since I feel the translation leads to confusion since it is written in Elizabethan English which is not a modern language and words and phrases are used differently today.
I've been accused of being "KJV only" even though I don't believe a word of the Bible. The KJV is what I grew up with; the phraseology resonates in my mind so I know what to look for and where to look.
If you can find a translation that doesn't lead to confusion, more power to you - but I would say that the confusion comes from the content, not the translation. There simply is no way to rationalize all of it with the rest of it unless you compartmentalize like Faith does.
