Timothy used a translational copy called by Paul, God's word.
Have you answered?Just tell me what you believe is out there for us to call the pure word of God.
A...original autographs?
B...copies of them?
C...a particular translation?
and you know this how? This is no more than speculation.
A challenge for anyone here....
Do any of you BELIEVE you have in your personal possession(where you live) the pure word of God in writing?
The septuagint and the Greek language were dominant in that era.and you know this how? This is no more than speculation.
Wrong answer...next.You need to define pure and what you claim is the Word of God. You've made plenty of contradictory claims.

Also, Timothy's father was a Greek gentile.
He did not teach his son Hebrew, and don't even think that is a fact.
Father knows best.

God preserving His word to us is a false teaching?Preservation is a false teaching. It is man made nonsense.
The 66 BooksOkay, which writings?
this proves nothing!
I am a Gentile but use the Hebrew Old Testament and Greek and Latin New Testaments. The Church fathers like Tertullian and Cyprian used both the Greek and Latin Bible.
As Paul spoke Hebrew (see Acts 22:2), and Timothy was like a son to him, do you not think that Paul would have taught Timothy the OT in the Original language?

You made your statement of faith...Ick!Yeah. Empty nonsense from you.
Anyone that has spent any significant time studying the Holy Writings throughout history knows that the sinfulness of man has caused many problems with all extant witnesses.
I don't REQUIRE God to rescue us from ourselves endless throughout history. It is our duty to do the work and recognize the challenges. We don't require God to do it for us. It was given mankind to share/preserve and we haven't.
Your silly position faults God with the problems that exist in the KJV.
Are they the pure word of God, and which translation is?God preserving His word to us is a false teaching?

Any reputable English translation. This idea of the "Pure Word of God" is nonsense. The KJV is not the original, you realize that? It doesn't have the original words. It isn't the original language. So get over it man.Are they the pure word of God, and which translation is?
Is the "not so pure word of God", the word of God or a commentary of the pure word of God?Any reputable English translation. This idea of the "Pure Word of God" is nonsense. The KJV is not the original, you realize that? It doesn't have the original words. It isn't the original language. So get over it man.
Oh brother...Yes. It is. God is perfect. What we have today isn't perfect. God doesn't do anything less than perfect. Man has corrupted the Scriptures and the only blame as to why is man.... not God.
