And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh. - Eccl. 12:12.

For the sake of sanity, I have removed from my shelf other translations, books about bibles, books about reading bibles and books about books on biblical manuscriptures and moved on with my walk, my KJV in hand.

I am sticking with Charles Spurgeon's sermons and C.S. Lewis' Mere Christianity.

Thank you, brothers, for your encouragement.

It's heartening to know you are encouraged Matthew. Don't throw those translation or any of those books away.

They're evidence now, to show others.

Grace and peace to you
