The Bible I use is the King James Version...
I use it because it is more faithful to the manuscripts than the modern ones. However the 1901 NAV is also quite good. The Geneva Bible is EXCELLENT and it was written before the KJV
The one I use is not the original but the 1746 Version I do have the new Testament from the Geneva 1602 edition ( the first KJV was 1611 )... It is really cool but VERY Hard to get used to. All the "u" are "v" the "s" in the middle of a word looks like an "f" but only sometimes and "j" looks like an "i"

Here I'll show you Jesus Looks like this IESVS
John lokks like this IOHN :-}

Here is IOHN III:XI ( John 3:11 )

Verily,verily, I fay vnto thee, We fpeake that we know, and tsftifie that wee haue feene: but yee receiue not our witneffe.

You get used to it after a while :-}

RE>> I'm sure you're taking several of the quotes, especially those
from the New Testament, out of context. <<

You should go and read those verses for yourself.. You a very RIGHT to question what I say... Indeed it is your duty before God to verify that what you believe is in line with His Holy Word :

Acts 17:11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

These Jews of Berea were called more noble for two reasons They proved themselves reasonable and teachable not like those in Thessalonica Also they did not merely TRUST Paul or Silas But did their homework and searched the scriptures ( THE OLD TESTAMENT the new was not written yet ) To see if what they said about Jesus was true ! And so should you and everyone :-}

RE>> I be so bold as to know HOW you learned "the hard way" that God hates sinners? <<

Ya I resisted this truth with all my might ... but in the end had to give up and submit to the Word of God. Just made life hard on myself for no good reason really I thought I was defending God's Honor..had no Idea that it is no Honor to God to say that he is "Weak to Save Sinners ":-}

Do you know how many people will be in Hell that God wanted to save ??

I do === NONE ===

RE>>God hates sinners.<<

I did not say God hates all sinners... Jesus loved His People while they were yet sinners.... If God hated all sinners then no one would get saved. He hates the Wicked.. those who are left in that state until death and are never granted the Spirit of Repentance. Those are the "son's of disobedience" Seed of the devil. They can not be saved and they will not be saved. They never overcome the hatred all men have for God in the flesh because they are not Born Again by the power of the Holy Ghost.

RE>> especially those from the New Testament, out of context. <<
Just curious but why do you think "especially the new testament"?

I have one tiny little ( trick ) question for you.

Why did Jesus speak in Parables ?

Jesus answered that himself in the Bible go look it up :-}
