NewKJV only use of fallacy

Fri, 09/28/18

The one that the KJV-only people everywhere seem to embrace is this one:

These verses are taken out of these versions, therefore that version must be evil.

It’s just as wrong to add to the Word as remove it. Whether a verse is added or not is not a credible argument, but everyone I know who is KJVO holds on to this fallacy.
