PROOF that the KJV Bible is Divinely Inspired

[Rev. Jim Osborne]

Look at these FACTS and dare say that the Bible was nothing more than a human invention!

1. There are 1,189 chapters in the Bible. Psalm 117 is the shortest chapter.
2. Psalm 119 is the longest chapter.
3. Psalm 118 has exactly 594 chapters before and 594 chapters after, with Psalm 118 exactly in the middle of the Bible.
4. 594 + 594 = 1,188.
5. Psalm 118:8 is exactly in the middle of the Bible.

"It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man" (Psalm 118:8)

This verse contains exactly 14 words, with THE LORD exactly in the center – 7 before and 7 after (the number of completion). Therefore the words "The Lord" make up the exact center of the KJV Bible!

This isn't really proof. It just more or less number play. I can say the same thing about the 23 enigma.

Re: PROOF that the KJV Bible is Divinely Inspired

It's another of God's miracles! Clearly, no human being could have made a book with "The Lord" in the middle of it, and all of those other coincidences. That would be impossible. First of all, it would be too hard for a human being to accomplish that. Second of all, what human being would WANT to do something like that? Satan is too busy convincing homosexuals to have anal sex. So obviously, it must be a divine miracle! Halelujia!

Note: As you can see, Psalm 118 is therefore not the center chapter of the Bible. There are 594 chapters up to (and including) Psalm 116, and 594 Chapters from 118 on (including Psalm 118).

This makes Psalm 117, (not Psalm 118) the center chapter of the Bible.

Psalm 117 is the shortest Psalm. It has only two verses, and therefore no "center" verse. ___________________________________

Psalm 117:

1. O praise the Lord, all ye nations: praise him all ye people.

2. For his merciful kindness is great toward us, and the truth of the Lord endureth forever. Praise ye the Lord.

___________________________________

There is in fact No Center Verse of the Bible---the KJV Bible has an Even Number of verses.

The King James Bible has 31,174 verses — an even number — so there is no one "center" verse: the center would be a combination of the 15,587th and the 15,588th verses, which do fall within Psalm 118 (Psalm 118:8-9, to be exact).

@ Bogdana

Are you saying that God's math was off? Then you are still presupposing that He exists!

Re: PROOF that the KJV Bible is Divinely Inspired

God's math?

So, Rev. Jim is God now, is he?

What a malicious thing to suggest. I would never commit such blasphemy.

So you are saying it is Rev. Jim's math that is off.

Well explain this then: since the KJV1611 is inspired by God, why wouldn't Rev. Jim be right?

There are times when no counter-argument can humiliate an opponent more than their own words.
