Question
Most marketing materials of modern Bible versions claim that the King James Bible is based on defective Hebrew & Greek texts and the archaic language of this translation is either obsolete or meaning changed. Hence we should use modern English translations that are based on more accurate texts and clear contemporary English. So do you think we should avoid the KJV and use only modern English Bibles for devotional reading and Bible study?

Answer
I personally would ony read the King James Bible for the longest time when I first got into church. But I soon realized that since it is the Spirit of God that wrote the Bible through men, then I have come to realize that the Spirit gives the revelation.
I have even used a Jehovah Witness Bible to reach people.
God will not allow the essence of His word to be changed to the extent that the Spirit does not allow revelation.
