Do modern Bible translations actually remove references to the blood of Christ?
And what about people who struggle to understand the KJV—don’t we want people to actually read and understand the Bible for themselves?
In this episode, we look at two major audience questions from the KJV Onlyism debate:
- Should Christians be expected to read a Bible they cannot understand?
- Are modern translations removing key doctrines by omitting phrases like “through His blood” in Colossians 1:14?
The goal is not just to possess a Bible—but to know God through His Word.
