The Bible Version Controversy Explained and Resolved

Which Bible Would Jesus Use? is a new, entertaining and easy-to-read volume that delivers convincing answers to the most difficult objections posed by King James Bible critics.

Tough issues are explained like:

  • Why does God need only one Bible?
  • Where was the Bible before 1611?
  • What about the many "revisions" of the King James? (Hint: there was only one, though there were a number of editions of the Bible)
  • What about the so-called "30,000 differences" in King James editions?
  • What is inspiration, according to the Bible?
  • Do the originals matter?
  • Why the Lord didn't preserve the original autographs, which doctrines are affected by modern translations and lots more.
  • Three chapters deal with the important topic of Inspiration of Scripture––you'll learn what it is, what it isn't, what scholars used to say it was and what they say it is now.
  • You'll find out who changed the definition of inspiration and when they changed it. And more importantly, you'll discover why they changed it.
  • Why the Lord Jesus Christ would never use the ESV because of the known errors (admitted by experts) inserted into the text in Matthew 1:7, 8, & 10.
  • Why the Lord wouldn't carry the NASB to church with him because of the known errors (admitted by experts) inserted into the text in John 7:8-10 and because of the way it refers to him in John 1:18.
  • Why the Lord couldn't use the NIV, ESV, or the NASB because of the known geography error (admitted by experts) inserted into the text in Luke 4:44.
  • Why the Lord wouldn't bring the NKJV into church with him because of how it undermines the historical integrity of his words in English.

You can finally have peace of mind knowing in your heart you were right all along to believe in the King James Bible.

5 reasons why you'll benefit from reading this book

  • First: You'll learn how to convince the critics that the Lord Jesus Christ would unequivocally choose a King James Bible if he came to their church.
  • Second: You'll learn how to prove that the elite textual critics who assembled the underlying Greek text of almost all modern versions actually believe that the Lord made errors when He inspired the Bible in the first place.
  • Third: You'll learn how to present a new and unanswerable argument as to why the Lord wouldn't use the New King James Version because he'd end up competing with himself.
  • Fourth: You'll learn how to quickly and easily answer the constant and mostly insincere question of "Which edition of the King James Bible is the word of God?"
  • Finally: You'll learn how to "turn the tables" and put the critics on the defensive by asking the simple question "If the Lord Jesus came to your church, which Bible would He use?" It's a question the critics won't have an answer for because they don't have a Bible that they believe is inspired and inerrant. There are no NIV Onlyists, ESV Onlyists or NASB Onlyists out there. They don't have a Bible—You do.

Author Jack McElroy explains why you’ll find the best answers to the many questions you get about your KJV in his book, "Which Bible Would Jesus Use?"

About Author

Jack McElroy

Jack McElroy was raised as a Roman Catholic attending a Catholic grammar and Jesuit high school. His life changed in 1978 when he became a Born Again Christian after a 2 year search for the answer to the question: "What happens to you after you die?"

He's a businessman and entrepreneur and has been the President of McElroy Electronics Corporation for over 35 years. He co-founded and was President of Dutchess County Cellular Telephone Corporation in Poughkeepsie, NY and co-founded and was Chief Manager of Minneapolis Cellular Telephone Company LLC in Minneapolis MN. McElroy co-founded and is President of McElroy Publishing and McElroy Rare Bible Page Collections since 1991.

He has taught Bible doctrine to all age groups, from preschoolers to adults. He served as a youth leader for over 20 years and as a deacon at a Baptist church for over 12 years.

Over nearly 30 years he's studied the history of the Bible, textual criticism and translation theory. He's read books and articles by KJVonly and anti-KJV-only folks; Textus Receptus (TR) defenders; as well as Majority Text, Critical Text, and modern version supporters.

He's invested countless hours examining, comparing, and considering the differences between the 1611 King James Bible, and its subsequent reprints and modern versions. He's familiar with the arguments on all sides of the issue—from KJV only to TR only to Majority Text Preferred to Critical Text Preferred—as well as the strengths and weaknesses of each position.

And he believes that if the Lord Jesus Christ came to your church to speak he would have to choose from among all the different Bible versions out there and he'd be forced to pick just one of them.

Which one?

The evidence shows that that the differences between the King James Bible and any of the modern versions are so great that if the Lord Jesus Christ came to your church tonight, he would absolutely not use any of the modern versions and he would without any question use a King James Bible.

He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Industrial Management from Lowell Technological Institute (now UMass Lowell).
