In this episode of Wisdom’s Way, Dr. Tim Pollock answers a question he is frequently asked: Why do you still use the King James Bible? Is it tradition? Nostalgia? Habit? Or is there a thoughtful, biblical reason behind the conviction?
With decades of preaching, studying, and comparing translations, Dr. Pollock explains why he remains confident in the King James Version as the most faithful and reliable English translation available today. This episode explores the importance of a high view of Scripture, translation philosophy (word-for-word vs. thought-for-thought), manuscript foundations, literary precision, and the enduring fruit of the KJV over 400 years of church history.
While making clear that this is not a salvation issue, Dr. Pollock thoughtfully outlines why he believes the King James Bible offers unmatched accuracy, stability, doctrinal precision, and reverent beauty — and how he uses other translations as helpful tools without replacing his foundational text.
If you’ve ever wondered which Bible translation to trust — or why faithful believers differ on this issue — this episode will help you think carefully, biblically, and confidently about the Word of God.
