Only the KJV includes the word STUDY and the command to study the word of Truth. 2 tim2:15

I was raised atheist, did not come to the faith going to church or the Bible. It was through revelation similar to Paul. On that day, the womam God sent to be with me read John to me from her NIV Bible.
If God used NIV to speak his Word to me, so will I.

People can be saved from any bible, they don't even need a bible at all; just a simple gospel tract will do but the bible has much more than just the knowlege of how to be saved. The proper keys for interpretation and other doctrines have been changed.
And hence I read both. I have no problems with the scriptural claims around textus receptus, but the refusal to update it to modern english (NKJV is not it), seems to me that the old english itself has become an idol.
That's like the Jews saying they need to update the old testament into modern Hebrew. It is the written revelation of God- every word is setteld in heaven. TheeKJV is the foundation of modern English and much richer with more details.
The written revelation of God was written in Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek, not old English, that was not settled in heaven.
"if therefore thine eye be single" Eye be single? The NIV and its footnote gives more context which ties with the preceding verses.
Check Mathew 6:13- not the same in modern versions. You decide if every word maters.
It's possible the ending to the prayer came from an oral traditon practiced by early Christians, then added to the text by a scribe.
I already read the KJV, don't need to convince me. And as Forest Gump said, that's all I have to say about that.
