I really appreciate your prayer and that you understand God's will is behind this .

I understand what you are saying about theological ideas such as the "Romans Road", "Armor of God" and "Salvation" and though this wiki is about biblical-history (with the intent to present many of those concepts via the the historical content) I understand what you are saying about including that content. I literally have a sheet where I type things down needing to be discussed and have that written down and plan to discuss that with the new admin as soon as possible. Probably stuff we would like to implement we just need to figure out how and deal with some larger issues at hand first. To respond to having King James only this is why I would say probably not. Reason I say this compared to modern translations I believe, as I myself am a reader of the NIV believe and know that God preserved the Scriptures through modern translations as being His word and being infallible and having inerrancy. Sure there will be grammatical errors, but saying KJV is the only right version is not being trusting of the LORD's ability to keep the Scripture the same meaning through the ages.

Secondly, if we were to say modern versions were corrupt then KJV being not the first English translation could also be corrupt and so then you would refer back to the original Tyndale Bible. With the issue of KJV missing verses, those verses were taken out simply because older copies of Scripture were looked upon and found to have been mistranslated. The verses that are missing in KJV don't have such a significance where it changes the meaning of the Bible. The Bible itself is inspired by God, but every translation modern and old have inaccuracies. Now there's nothing wrong with KJV and most likely in the future it may be ideal to implement just a neutral one thats set to a user's default on Biblegateway but there are not enough users with this request at this time to take that request into account. Regardless of copyrights Scripture itself should not be used on the wiki as then there will be those who twist it and this wiki is not Scripture and doesn't intend to be. Rather it is to help people study the Bible historically and witness to others through the history of the Bible- thats why we have the references feature so you can see where exactly in Scripture it talks about it, as well as places in Scripture that have the same meaning. Different versions often work better for different people I think God often has multiple Bible versions, because one may speak to a reader more than another would. If you want to contribute for now you can use KJV and just link the same verse. There are very few cases where there are missing verses and so I don't think you will run into that issue. I hoped this explanation helps you understand why I disagree with having KJV only.
