It is our view that the production of these new translations has served to undermine the spiritual foundations of our country and weaken the message of her churches. The new versions are not really better than the old one. The abandonment of the King James Bible by our churches has not been a good thing. We are going to keep the old Bible for several compelling reasons.
Some new Bibles are dangerous because of the theological bias of their translators.
The Revised Standard Version of the Bible was presented to the public as a completed work in 1952. It was authorized by the notoriously liberal National Council of Churches. Behold a young woman shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. The difference between this reading and the way the verse reads in the King James Version is very important. The liberal bias against the doctrine of the virgin birth of Christ is reflected in the R.S.V. translation of this verse.
