FTGF Lesson 272 | Assessing the Printed History of the KJ Text (PCE: Tenants & Public Awareness)

Summary: This teaching provides a critical examination of the Pure Cambridge Edition (PCE) position within King James Bible advocacy. Pastor Ross analyzes the theological, doctrinal, and historical claims made by Matthew Verschoor (Bible Protector Ministry) regarding a specific circa 1900 Cambridge printing being the only "perfect" edition of the King James Bible. The lesson demonstrates how this position goes beyond editorial preference to become an exclusive doctrinal stance that elevates one specific printing above all others, including the 1611 original. The teaching traces the position's origins to 2001-2007, revealing it was unknown before this period and was developed based on Pentecostal theological presuppositions and historicist interpretations. The instructor emphasizes the importance of understanding faith-based presuppositions while not denying historical facts or breaking laws of logic, ultimately cautioning against positions that claim divine revelation for textual preferences. Chapters Chapter 1: Introduction and Review of the PCE Position 0:00 - 5:00 We resume our examination of the Pure Cambridge Edition position, reviewing historical Protestant bibliology and the foundational assertions of the PCE claim. Chapter 2: Core Tenets of the Pure Cambridge Edition Position 5:00 - 20:00 We examine the main tenets of the PCE position through direct quotes, revealing claims that the PCE is the only exact, correct, and perfect text of God's Word in English. Chapter 3: Historical Development and First Public Articulation 20:00 - 35:00 We trace the timeline of how the PCE position was first formulated in 2001-2002 and publicly disseminated beginning in 2007 through the Bible Protector website. Chapter 4: Theological Implications and Conclusion 35:00 - 45:00 We assess the theological implications of the PCE position, noting how it shifts the debate from translation fidelity to edition exclusivity based on specific doctrinal presuppositions. Key Points: The PCE position claims a circa 1900 Cambridge printing is the "exact, correct, and perfect" text of God's Word in English. This position asserts that the PCE represents the "final purification" of the King James Bible, making it superior to all other editions including the 1611. The position was first developed by Matthew Verschoor in 2001-2002 and made public in 2007 through the Bible Protector website. No one in King James Bible advocacy argued for this position before 2007. The position is based on specific theological presuppositions including Pentecostal doctrine and historicist interpretation. Verschoor claims divine providence led him to this position, and the elders of Victory Faith Center declared themselves "guardians" of the PCE in 2005. The position includes 12-13 specific textual readings that distinguish the PCE from other editions. Logical implications suggest that non-PCE editions, while possibly useful, are considered less than fully pure or perfect. The position shifts the concept of biblical purity from the translator's work to a later editorial standard. Understanding presuppositions is essential when evaluating textual positions.
