At four centuries old, the King James Bible is aging well

It's a book that has left its mark on centuries of human history, one seen by scholars as the finest example of English prose.

Presidents swear on it. Preachers sometimes thump it. You may not have read it, but you've probably quoted it.

The King James Bible turns 400 years old this year.

"There's a divine witness, something that spoke to me and said what you have in your hand is the word of God," said Pastor Jorge Castro of Rialto Bible Baptist Church.

Castro's congregation, like many throughout the United States, touts itself as a King James Bible-believing church.

Having preached out of the King James Bible for 15 years and studied modern translations, Castro believes the King James Bible is the most faithful translation of what God intended to communicate through the Scriptures.

"All of the modern translations, I've had my hands on," Castro said. "The King James Bible stands on its own."

The King James Bible was not the first printed English translation of the Scriptures.

Some scholars say its publication in 1611, there were 50 different versions printed in English of all or part of the Bible, beginning with the Protestant reformer William Tyndale translated the New Testament in 1526.

Tyndale's work bent over that of John Wycliffe, who produced the manuscript in the form of the first English translation of the Bible, in the years before 1380.

In 1601, at a meeting of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, a proposal was made to publish a new translation of the Bible. The meeting was attended by King Jacques VI of Scotland, who became the king Jacques I of England in 1603.

In 1604, James called the Hampton Court Conference, held outside of London, and the decision was made to work on a new Bible translation that would satisfy both the Puritans and the Church of England's bishops.

According to the British Library, James summoned about 50 scholars to work on the translation.

`Thy word have I hidden in my heart that I may not sin against thee.' The words have a regular rhythm and a rising and falling into patterns and that's why it's so memorable." While the King James Bible is revered by many who view it as having been

One tweeter was reminded of the 1970s character Eddie Booth from Love Thy Neighbour, the British sitcom. If this reaction was representative, at least the riots haven't left us back in an ethnic year zero. Some wondered why I hadn't become annoyed,

Lil Wayne, Kayne West, Drake, Jay-Z, Who listens to Rap?

I don't care if the lyrics are auto-tuned, free-styled, or even recited from the back of a napkin at a Jack-in-the-Box, if it sounds good, I'd most likely listen to it, especially if it has a great “beat” associated with it. So, when my iPod is all set

Please don't tarnish your own brand and diminish the effectiveness of the way you and those around you do business. I constantly hear the word “BOSS” thrown around every day in Hip Hop circles and now that term is getting as TIRED as the term PIMP.
