The following article was written by Dr. Shelton Smith, editor of the Sword of the Lord, April 18, 2008.  It most clearly gives the reason why Nuggets of Gold uses only the KJB.

Do You Believe in Double Inspiration?

No, I do not! The Bible was inspired at the time of its writing.  That’s the claim of Scripture itself.  Read the texts about the Scripture that I quoted earlier.

Now, God has preserved His inspired Word for us. It is preserved in the Hebrew Masoretic text and in the Greek Textus Receptus text.  It is also preserved for us in English in the King James Bible.

What He at first inspired, the Lord God has now preserved.  Therefore, when I hold the King James Bible in my hand, I hold the inspired text. It was inspired, and now that inspired Word has been protected, preserved and provided for us!

Though the question of double inspiration is a legitimate one and it is reasonable that it should be raised, that is not how we came to have an English Bible that is the Word of God. There are two concepts—inspiration and preservation. Because the Lord chose to do it that way, the English Bible I hold in my hand is the inspired Word of God!

If what you have is not the inspired Word of God, whose word is it?  If you do not have the inspired Word of God in your hands, would you kindly define for us what it is you think you have?  If your Bible is not the Word of God, then I think we have a problem!

Aren’t Some King James Advocates off the Mark?

There’s no question about that, but you can’t be accountable for everybody’s wild ideas or even his spurious claims.

As with any position we take on any subject, we need to be careful and well studied so as to stand on our position in a responsible manner.

I would not vouch for the claims of every King James Bible advocate.  If he is carrying a KJB and using it, I’m happy about that.  If he innocently or ignorantly sounds off and says things that are off the mark, I hope we can help him to get his argument on a solid footing.  But don’t turn your head away in disgust and refuse to acknowledge the validity of an inspired, preserved English Bible simply because you ran into somebody who could not present a decent case for it or made ill-advised claims about it.

There are a few people in every family that cause frustration at the annual family reunion.  We know them, and we always hope they don’t make a scene. But when they do, we don’t revolt against the family. We may flinch when

they show up, but we still go to the picnic.

What I’m saying here is that there is a strong, legitimate case to be made for the preservation of the Word of God in our English Bible.  The fact that you do not like a particular advocate in no way disenfranchises the issue.  If someone does something ridiculous (as does happen) in this advocacy, let it reflect on him but not on the issue itself.
