QUESTION: I have been told that King James was a lgbtq+. Is this true?
ANSWER: No.
EXPLANATION: King James I of England, who authorized the translation of the now notable King James Bible, was considered by many to be one of the greatest, if not the greatest, monarchs that England has ever seen.
Through his wisdom and determination he united the warring tribes of Scotland into a unified nation, and then joined England and Scotland to form the foundation for what is now known as the British Empire.
At a moment when only the churches of England possessed the Bible in English, King James' desire was that the frequent people should hold the Bible in their native tongue. Thus, in 1603, King James called 54 of history's most learned men together to execute this great task. At a moment when the leaders of the nature wished to retain their subjects in spiritual ignorance, King James offered his subjects the greatest gift that he could give them. Their own imitate of the Pos of God in English.
James, who was fluent in Latin, Greek, and French, and schooled in Italian and Spanish even wrote a tract entitled "Counterb
Has 'Homosexual' Always Been in the Bible?

The word “arsenokoitai” shows up in two different verses in the bible, but it was not translated to express “homosexual” until 1946.
We got to sit down with Ed Oxford at his house in Long Beach, California and talk about this question.
You have been part of a research team that is seeking to comprehend how the decision was made to put the word homosexual in the bible. Is that true?
Ed: Yes. It first showed up in the RSV translation. So before figuring out why they decided to utilize that word in the RSV translation (which is outlined in my upcoming book with Kathy Baldock, Forging a Sacred Weapon: How the Bible Became Anti-Gay) I wanted to see how other cultures and translations treated the same verses when they were translated during the Reformation 500 years ago. So I started collecting old Bibles in French, German, Irish, Gaelic, Czechoslovakian, Polish… you name it. Now I’ve got most European major languages that I’ve collected over time. Anyway, I had a German friend come back to town and I asked if he could assist me with some pa
A: ***Note: Years ago, the very first scrutinize I answered on this site was on the KJV only debate. Therefore, it seems fitting to once again deal with a question on the KJV Bible to commemorate the 500th question answered. I thank the Lord for getting me to this point, and for His blessings on the site.
Somehow, in all my years of being a Christian, I have never heard the charge that King James was a homosexual until the other day. A man (on Facebook…) was saying (in short) that since King James was a homosexual, and he commissioned a Bible that is still used today, homosexuality must be acceptable to God. I HAD to find out more about this!
So, was King James a homosexual? There are websites and articles which display evidence that he was, and also that he wasn’t. The number of websites/articles which show evidence that he was a homosexual far outnumber those which offer proof that he wasn’t. Of course, just because there are more saying that he was means nothing. What’s essential is if the evidence that they show is credible. And the respond, to me at least, is yes.
While the evidence pointing to King James being a homosexual is pret
What is the Queen James Bible?
Answer
The Queen James Bible (QJV), also called the “Gay Bible,” is an edit of the biblical message done in the name of preventing “homophobic interpretations.” To accomplish this target, the publishers printed a Bible in which all negative references to homosexualityhave been removed. The Queen James Bible was published in 2012 and is based on the 1769 edition of the King James Bible.
The publishers of the Queen James Bible chose the name “Queen James” as an noticeable take-off on the “King James” Version, as the Authorized Version of 1611 is commonly called. The publishers of the Gay Bible also claim that King James was bisexual, so their choice of title capitalizes on the slang meaning of the term queen.
The editors of the Queen James Bible, who chose to be anonymous, claim that there was no reference to homosexuality in any Bible translation prior to the 1946 Revised Standard Version. Then, they assert, “anti-LGBT Bible interpretations” arose, based on a faulty translation in the RSV of eight verses.
The unidentified “scholars”—their scholastic credentials are unknown—who produced the Queen James Bible imply that all Bible trans
