I NEVER liked the NIV after what I found out and will never use it. :( But right now I'm reading to the kids NICV (New International Children's Version).

So, for me, I'm a spectrum guy: Take in the most literal all the way to the most meaningful and you'll probably be just fine [smile].<br /><br />So, May, eh? I should do a shout-out on my blog...<br /><br /> ~LukeLuke Holzmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07799632321310461828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-20743085484775097912011-02-09T11:43:10.742-06:002011-02-09T11:43:10.742-06:00"I tend to put more authority on the KJV simp..."I tend to put more authority on the KJV simply because it has been around longer and withstood centuries of criticism from Bible scholars who know much more than I do on the subject."<br /><br />I agree.
