++ Regarding KJV Bibles the Cambridge (Pure Cambridge Edition) text is most likely the

best KJV Bible but they are almost impossible to find, while the Cambridge Concord

Edition and the Cambridge Pitt Minion Edition are also very good. I ordered one of the

pocket KJV Pitt Minions listed below and it passed the checklist at the bottom of this

document. The best deals I could find are at:

Dr. Johnson

Beware of Altered King James Bibles

Dr. Scott Johnson

Sermon Overview: King James Bible believers are faced with an arrayof problems to day. Of course we all know that the multiplicity of allthe new modern versions are a big problem, but another littleknown problem is the fact that many of the worldly publishingcompanies are publishing Bibles and calling them King James Bibleswhen in actuality they are not true King James Bible. Because theKing James Bible is in the public domain and not copyrighted (In all

places other than England), these worldly publishing companies thinkthey can make minor changes to the standard text so that they canplease certain groups which translates into extra sales forthem. Today you can still find true King James Bibles but you mustproceed with caution. You will be hard pressed to find it at all in anytypical Christian book store (or other stores for that matter) withoutsome alterations to the text Cambridge University Press printed thePCE (PURE CAMBRIDGE EDITION) between about 1900 and about1980. There are millions of them around. It is possible to find nicesecond hand copies. Proverbs 30:5-6: Every word of God ispure: heisa shield unto them that put their trust in him. Add thou not unto hiswords, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a

liar.Listen at:http://www.sermonaudio.com/sermoninfo.asp?SID=825082036444

I can confirm what vicks is saying about the TBS Calfskin Family Bible. I also have a copy

of this Bible and vicks's post prompted me to check this. This TBS Calfskin Bible has the

exact same pagination and text size as my Cambridge plain text large print hardback Bible.

In fact it looks like it came off the exact same press plates. However I can find only one

difference. My Cambridge plain text large print hardback has "Spirit" in 1 John 5:8 while

the TBS Calfskin Family Bible has "spirit" in 1 John 5:8. I did not bother to check the TBS

Calfskin because the pagination was clearly identical. Thanks to vicks I know there is a

different and I am pleasantly suprised that this superb Bible is a PCE. The text is veryclear, large and the paper is as opaque as I have seen. Much better than the hardback

Cambridge.

Note that Cambridge/TBS have changed to the Concord edition, which means that if you

happen to order from a place that has the old copies, it will be PCE, otherwise you will end

up getting a Concord. It could be called by the same name, e.g. "Black Leather Pitt Minion"

or "Calfskin Leather Large Print Plain Family" or whatever. If they happen to have old ones

at their warehouse/store they will be PCE, but if newer, they will not be PCE.

Posted: Tue Nov 25, 2008 5:34 pm Post subject: Calfskin Leather PCE KJB Found!

Was looking for a bible to give to someone as a gift whilst the plans to print PCE's was

underway so I ordered a few different plain text bibles from the Australia TBS organisation.

Turns out the Large Print Family Bible (9CFR) lines up with all the checkpoints that Matt

lists on his website, including the Ezra 2:26 Geba one.

Here's the bible: http://www.tbs-sales.org/site/sales/category.asp?id=138

and the Australian TBS site: http://www.trinitarianbiblesociety.org.au

I'm not sure if all the 9CFR's that the TBS are supplying are all PCE's but the one that just

got sent to me today from the Australian office is. All their other plain text bibles, including

the Windsor Text and Ruby Text were not PCE's.

Posted: Thu May 29, 2008 5:45 am Post subject: Are some World Bibles PCE?

I have a pocket size World Bible that is the smallest I have ever seen. It is the size of a

casset tape case and fits easily into almost any pocket. I actually have two of them. One is

genuine leather while the other is vinyl cased. I have tried to test this Bible to see if it is

PCE and it has passed every test. Is anyone here aware of this Bible? Can you verify that it

is PCE?

The number on the Bible's spine is 891. The number inside is 800-10-50911. The following

links appear to be the same thing or similar:

Thanks Blake

PS: I have much to say to the Brothers on this website. More than I have time to share

right now. You have been a blessing.

Hello Blake.

If the Bible matches up to the tests, it is a PCE.

I have a Collins printed little Bible, which has "WS801" and it seems identical to the

layout of the first link you provided: The one on the amazon link is a PCE.

The other link does not work (because it is a link of a search, not a fixed page).

All the best.

KING JAMES BIBLE:

PURE CAMBRIDGE EDITION (PCE)

"...Thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name. (Psalm 138:2).

http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/Bible/KJB/pce.htm

The Authorized King James Version of the Holy Bible is

Gods providentially appointed Word for the whole world

which reveals the name of the Father as Jehovah, and the

name of His Son, Jesus, in Whom there is salvation, and

the name of the Holy Ghost, Who indwells every born-

again Christian believer.

The standard text of the Cambridge Edition of the King

James Bible has been published on this website. You are

free to download this definitive electronic text of the King

James Bible (KJB). The actual King James Bible text of the

Pure Cambridge Edition (PCE) has been presented free of any typographical error, and is

completely correct. It is scrupulously exact in typesetting right down to the italics and

punctuation.

This precise edition of the King James Bible is wholly based on the received traditional text as

was published by Cambridge University Press. God's Word is necessary for true salvation. The

English Bible has been providentially raised up by God for a great dissemination of the true

Gospel.

The Pure Cambridge Edition (first published circa 1900) is the product of the process of textualediting that has occurred since 1611 when the Authorized Version was completed. Please note

that there've been norevisions of the Bible since the authorized 1611 King James Bible was

first released, only editions (such as spelling standardization). There is nothing wrong with the

unedited Authorized 1611 King James Bible. It contains no errors. The standardization of

English words does not mean that there are any errors in the original work.

Some people refer to the Cambridge Edition as the Pure Cambridge Edition, but the word

pure is improper, because the Words of the Lord are pure (Psalm 12:6-8). To refer to the


9/10

Cambridge Edition as pure implies the the Authorized 1611 King James Bible is less pure or

impure. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Authorized 1611 King James Version is

pure, because God's Word is pure and the actual translation of the King James Bible has NOT

been revised since 1611. So I deliberately refrain from using the word pure in reference to any

particular edition of the King James Bible, because the original Authorized 1611 King James

Bible is as 100% pure as the Cambridge Edition. My intent here is not to diminish the

impeccable quality of the Cambridge Edition; but rather, to uphold the integrity, purity,

inspiration and inerrancy of the Authorized 1611 Edition.

Also note that the original autographs of the Scriptures were in Heaven before God ever spoke

the universe into existence. Psalm 119:89, "For ever, O LORD, Thy word is settled in

heaven." Thus, the originals do not exist in Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic; but rather, in Heaven

where they are settled forever. Before God ever created mankind, the last Word of Revelation

was already recorded in Heaven. God's Words are inspired in any language. Don't let anyone

discourage you by falsely claiming that the Authorized 1611 King James Bible is less than

perfect. It is more than a masterpiece, or the best translation, it is God's perfect and inspired

Word! The Cambridge Edition is simply a standardized English copy of God's perfect Word,

which He wondrously gave to us in 1611.

The King James Bible is inspired and preserved. God's Word is inspired into whatever language

it is translated. God never promised to inspire a language; but rather, His Words (Psalm 12:6-8).

The Words of the Lord are pure. Those pseudo-scholars today who claim that only the Greek,Hebrew and Aramaic are inspired are WRONG, because God's Word is inspired in English or

any other language it is translated into. God's Words were given by inspiration. God promised to

preserve those inspired Words and they will always be inspired. A man who teaches that the

King James Bible is not inspired is a liar.

A ready for print file of the King James Bible in Plain Text Minion has been presented. Utilize

this for printing and binding your own Bible(s). Using paper thinner than 80gsm is strongly

recommended. Features include:

ARE EARLIER EDITIONS OF THE KING JAMES BIBLE INERRANT?

Yes, absolutely! A typographical error is not actually an "error" in the Bible, because it is only a

presentation error. The fact is that any KJB (of the proper tradition) is still presenting the same

text and translation that is correct. The issue is not about "errancy," but about presentation.

Since we do have an inerrant text and translation, yet there are many differing editions of it, we

also want to have the edition which has the standard spelling. As a whole, the Cambridge

Edition is this.

Use this checklist to ascertain whether the Bible is a Cambridge Edition:

1. or Sheba not and Sheba in Joshua 19:2

2. sin not sins in 2nd Chronicles 33:19

3. Spirit of God not spirit of God in Job 33:4

4. whom ye not whom he in Jeremiah 34:16

5. Spirit of God not spirit of God in Ezekiel 11:24

6. flieth not fleeth in Nahum 3:16

7. Spirit not spirit in Matthew 4:1

8. further not farther in Matthew 26:39

9. bewrayeth not betrayeth in Matthew 26:73

10. Spirit not spirit in Mark 1:12

11. spirit not Spirit in Acts 11:28
