Why the King James Bible Is Used on This Site
We do not question the sincerity or salvation of believers who read other translations. However, for careful doctrinal study—especially concerning Paul’s unique ministry—we believe the King James Version remains the most reliable English Bible.
Bible Study Compass uses the King James Version (KJV) because it faithfully preserves distinctions, wording, and doctrinal clarity essential for rightly dividing the Word of truth (2 Timothy 2:15).
Examples:
-
church vs assembly
-
ordinances retained vs set aside
-
mystery language preserved
-
faith vs faithfulness changes
-
removal/alteration of key verses affecting:
-
baptism (Water or Holy Spirit)
-
repentance
-
perseverance
-
Christ’s identity (Unedited or missing verses regarding the Trinity and Deity of Christ)
-
KJV and right division
This is crucial for your site:
-
KJV clearly preserves:
-
Jew / Gentile distinctions
-
kingdom vs mystery language
-
prophecy vs revelation
-
-
Later translations often blur these lines
-
That blurring leads directly to:
-
mixing Israel and the Body
-
works creeping into grace
-
baptismal regeneration confusion
-
Our Calling Today
“And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery,
which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God,
who created all things by Jesus Christ.”
— Ephesians 3:9 (KJV)
Our calling, as the Church which is His Body, is not to fulfill prophecy, establish an earthly kingdom, or continue Israel’s ordinances.
Our calling is:
To make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery.
This mystery:
-
was hid in God, not foretold by the prophets
-
was revealed through the apostle Paul the prisoner starting in Ephesians
-
concerns the new man with a heavenly calling
-
unites Jew and Gentile in one Body
-
stands entirely on grace, not works or ordinances
This calling defines:
-
how we read Scripture
-
how we understand salvation
-
how we walk, serve, and witness today
When this mystery is misunderstood or ignored, believers are often placed under instructions never given to them, resulting in confusion, fear, or misplaced assurance.
When this mystery is seen, Scripture opens with clarity, and Christ is honoured in His rightful Headship over the Body.
