In year 3 I turned up to Colin’s birthday party one week early. Kinda embarrassing, kinda funny. All okay, I just turned up the correct time the following weekend. This time it looks like I’ve turned up to the party one week late. I thought Monday 9th May was the 400th birthday of the King James Version of the Bible. It wasn’t. Monday 2nd May, 2011 was the birthday party. Oops. Unless I can invent a time machine, it looks like I’ll have to wait until the KJV’s next significant birthday (500th?) or hope the 400th kicks on for a while!
Anyway. Happy Birthday 400th Birthday KJV!! I’m thankful to God that you helped pave the way for the Bible in a language I can understand.
