Great Sermon! That was an interesting study. You should check out Job 6:6 in the modern translations. The archaic KJV has the white of an egg, while the newer, more up to date language model, versions have the sap of the mallow and the slime of the purslane.

Good Sermon! Great Point: God wants us to understand EVERY word.
Interesting that the reference verse here is John 19:30:An example of why Pastor Barkman preaches from the King James: "Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth. 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar..."
In Jn 19:29/30 TNIV & other modern versions completely mistranslate this verse, dropping out some words, and adding others. The higher critics failed to substitute wine for vinegar in this verse, as they did in Matt. 27:34 (more below ). There they confused three separate offerings of drink to the Savior: (1) wine drugged with myrrh, which He would not taste; (2) vinegar mingled with gall, which He tasted and would not drink; (3) then six hours later, vinegar in sponge was lifted up on the top of a reed, and He drank, then it was that He exclaimed, It is finished!
In Matt.27:34 they gave Him vinegar mingled with gall - an obvious reference to Psalm 69:21, where it is decidedly vinegar and gall that are mentioned but Aleph, B, D, K. L. Pi and 13 cursives have wine(oinon) for vinegar(oxos). Burgon proves the King James correct citing multiple church fathers.The other 5000 Gk. texts are upheld in KJV's "vinegar".

Great Sermon! A wise perspective of the limits of the English language. The English language changes, I have seen an older version of the KJV, and most people could not read some of the words because the way Britain printed some of the letters back in even the 1800s, were different from how they print them today. Good perspective, and we can use KJV and other conservative translations today.
Gregory N. Barkman moved to Alamance County, North Carolina, with his wife Marti in 1973 at the invitation of nineteen believers who desired to begin a new independent Baptist church. A stong proponent of expository preaching, Pastor Barkman teaches regularly from the Beacon...
