Yeah, I kind of had noticed!
However, the Bible was not originally written in English. It was not written in England or America, therefore, it wasn't originally written in English. When King James got his insane hands on the bible, he rewrote it in English. But only because English was probably the only language he knew.

It seems your perspective on this is influenced by the way Catholics look at this. For some reason Catholics believe the Bible should be in some unreadable language no normal person can read. Allowing only priests to read the Bible and thereby keeping common people away from the word of God.

This is however not how God wants it to be. God wants common people to be able to study His word directly, without a priest confusing issues and skipping important parts of His word.

This is why the only correct version of the Holy Bible is in God's favorite language!

2nd Timothy 3:16 "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness"

2nd Timothy 4:1-2 "I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine."

You cant compare me(?) to Hitler...
American english originated from Britain, so american-english is not as pure as you are saying, and our english isnt gods language anyway since english wasnt spoke until centurys after jesus's time.

You are right, The Bible was first written in HEBREW, it was later translated into English as well as many other languages.

If you want to understand the specifics of how God gave us the Holy KJV1611 Bible, please take a look at THIS.

Re: NO txt-sp33k in True Christian Church signs!

No it did not. All languages where created by God! Genesis 11:9 "Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth."

That's right. And not only that, but even before the Tower of Babel, God had created all of the languages, since Genesis 10 tells us of the spread of the generations of the sons of Noah:

By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations. Genesis 10:5

Now you may be wondering how God could have created the languages at the Tower of Babel if they already existed. The answer is simplicity itself--God created the languages at the Tower of Babel, but He backdated them so they could be used in the time of Noah.

Regardless of what your "god" wants, the Bible wasn't originally written in English. I already said this. I'm sure you think that your god wants everyone to believe in him, but wanting doesn't make it so. The Bible is written in English, yes. But, it wasn't ORIGINALLY written in English.

Yes, but God wants His truth to be spread far and wide.

Very few these days have the opportunity to learn ancient Hebrew, Greek or Aramatic.

English is the third most spoken language in the world, after godless Chinese and temperamental Spanish.

It is the officially "received" language of the science community -- and boy do those science types need to hear God's word-- as well as the maritime and aviation communities, which God uses as venues to spread His word. The English empire once spread the language and thus the ability to read the Book to many parts of the globe. The USA has since been given the standard of world power to serve God --at least partly through spreading English.

America was populated by many sincere people who cherished His Word enough to endure persecution at home and face the unknown upon new shores.

It took roughly 400 years for God to bring this Nation to prominence in order to spread that devotion to the Bible even further than the English before us.

A thousand years is as a day in God's sight. Look at all He has done for us in less than half a work day. How can anyone doubt His Wisdom and Blessing?

Worshipfully Yours,

Handmaiden

If he really wanted his word to be spread he would have not created so many languages; this causes some people not to be exposed to the Bible.
Or, he would have had the Bible written in many different languages, so that everyone could read it, regardless of their native language.
Not everyone learns to read English and I'm happy for them, because their minds will never be polluted by your "god's" word.

We can also afford a decent photography teacher to show the kids how NOT to take a picture with his own shadow on top of the subject of the photo. C'mon.

Depending on whether the sign is single or double sided, that may have been impossible from the position of the sun.
