In essence, yes. The same texts that undergird the KJB (OT), are the same texts Jesus had. So, in effect, 'yes'. The KJB has the same texts undergirding that Moses himself had written.

Psa 12:6 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
Psa 12:7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.

God has "inspired". God has "preserved".

The twin pillars of scripture.

One Christian has stated, that, "Divine inspiration without Divine preservation, would be a Divine waste of time."

The real war is not over the KJB per se, but over a perfectly inspired and preserved word of God.

If we gave up the idea that the KJB was perfect in its words and came down to us from the time of Moses, and went with another in its place, they would assault it, for the idea of a perfectly inspired and preserved word of God, is anathema to them. It means they would no longer be able to sit in judgment of the word of God, but it over them as it should have been all along.

Exo_12:5; Mic_6:6 *marg. ..."​

Saul reigned one year,.... "Or the son of a year in his reigning" (s); various are the senses given of these words: some interpret them, Saul had a son of a year old when he began to reign, Ishbosheth, and who was forty years of age when his father died, 2Sa_2:10, others, who understand the words of Saul himself, think there is an "ellipsis" or defect of the number, and that it may be supplied, that Saul was the son of thirty or forty years, or whatsoever age he may be supposed to be at when he began his reign; others take the words in a figurative sense, that he was like a child of a year old, for purity and innocence; so the Targum,"as the son of a year, in whom there are no faults, so was Saul when he reigned;''or he was but a year old, reckoning from the time he was turned into another man, and had another heart, which was immediately after he was anointed king at Ramah by Samuel; or he was but a year old with respect to his kingdom: the inauguration of a king is "natalis imperil", the birthday of his kingdom, and therefore the words are well enough rendered by us, "Saul reigned one year"; which is to be reckoned either from his unction at Ramah, or rather from his election at Mizpeh, to the renewal of the kingdom at Gilgal:
and when he had reigned two years over Israel; which the Jewish chronologers (t) make to be the whole of his reign, which is not probable, considering the many things done in his reign, the many battles he fought with all his enemies on every side of him, and his long persecution of David; and there were no less than three high priests in his reign; Josephus says (q) he reigned eighteen years in the lifetime of Samuel, and twenty two years after his death, in all forty; which agrees with Act_13:21. Some interpret it he reigned two years well, and the rest in a tyrannical way; or that at the end of two years, when David was anointed, the kingdom was not reckoned to him, but to David; and to this purpose Dr. Lightfoot writes, that he had been king one year from his first anointing by Samuel at Ramah, to his second anointing by him at Gibeah (Gilgal I suppose he means); and he reigned after this two years more, before the Lord cast him off, and anointed David; and the time he ruled after that was not a rule, but a tyranny and persecution (r); but the sense Ben Gersom gives is best of all, that one year had passed from the time of his being anointed, to the time of the renewal of the kingdom at Gilgal; and when he had reigned two years over Israel, then he did what follows, chose 3000 men, &c. In the first year of his reign was done all that is recorded in the preceding chapter; and when he had reigned two years, not two years more, but two years in all, then he did what is related in this chapter.

So you need lawyers to prove that Ellen White is not a plagiarist? Even if she is not convicted of such a charge, what makes you believe that Ellen White was chosen by God to start the SDA believers on the path to God? What makes Ellen White more correct than say, Joseph Smith? He claimed to be a prophet too.

The one thing JW's do not claim is that we have prophets who are sent by God to lead people to salvation.
Jesus did not select 12 apostles because one man/woman, especially those who are as flawed by sin as anyone else, cannot dictate what Jesus taught. The body of Christ must be a body with several members who all fulfill the role that God assigned to them, as it was in the first century.
The governing body in Jerusalem was made up of the apostles and older men with spiritual qualifications. These were the ones who decided on the issue of circumcision....remember? When the apostles spoke, they echoed the words of their Master in unity, not in division.

Proverbs 11:14.... NET
"When there is no guidance a nation falls, but there is success in the abundance of counselors."

No one person should ever lead people in worship, as we can see where that leads in the multitude of sects in Christendom. They are usually followers of one man (or occasionally one woman) who lead Christ's disciples off after themselves, and what they say God has told them to do and to teach. Since they all teach different things.....who is to say, who is correct? We choose what appeals to our hearts without interference from God. He allows us all to be caught in the act of being our true selves. We can't fool him.

Jesus has allowed us in these last days to make our choices, and he will not reveal whether we are right or wrong until his judgment is made.
Only then will we know for sure if we were chosen by God, rather than us choosing him through someone other than Jesus Christ.

You have made up your mind and that is fine with me.....Jesus will tell us all whether we have listened to his "Faithful and wise servant" whom the Master will reward when he returns to find him fulfilling his assignment. (Matt 24:45-46)

Facts exposing the truth about Jehovah's Witnesses and Watchtower

Scandal Involving the Watchtower Society

jwfacts.com

I wonder if Jesus had come to be born in our day, how many ‘hate sites’ would be publishing "facts and the real truth" about Jesus and his apostles. There would be news on the TV about how many times had they been denounced by those in religious authority.

Jesus had been publicly shamed as a false Messiah and his apostles were arrested many times after his death, demonstrating what "criminals" they were. The population were convinced, just as they are now. Propaganda works as we see every day how easily people’s opinions are swayed by a good spin on the news, or in a YouTube video, or good old hate sites.
History repeats as it always does when people do not learn that the devil has no new tricks....just new forms of delivery.

Since Jesus said that his true disciples would be “hated and persecuted” just as they were in the first century, (John 15:18-21).....I would see all that you have posted as ‘proof’ to some people that JW’s are the last people on earth who would have the truth.....but you are fulfilling prophesy, just as we are....only not in the way you imagine.

Are we perfect? Nope....were the apostles perfect? Nope.....what does that prove? Only that we are human, but we are “doing” what Jesus commanded his disciples to do, and we have completely separated from “Babylon the great” as per the instruction in Revelation 18:4-5.

A major judgment is coming and only Jesus knows who belongs to him.....he doesn’t read labels....he judges by faith and works......I will let him do the judging while we continue to call on people "in all the inhabited earth as a witness to all the nations", with one message as one united global brotherhood, doing what Christendom has failed to do. (Matthew 24:14; Matthew 28:19-20) Will it matter then what translation they used?

When Christ is backing the work, it will not fail.....and no one will be able to say..."nobody told me". There was to be one testimony offered....just one.....but not everyone wants to hear it. This is the choice we all have. But as Jesus said....these last days will be “just like the days of Noah”. (Matthew 24:37-39) The people back then stumbled over the messenger too, even ridiculed him, but they saw what he did and in the end they knew he had told the truth......but too late. History will repeat and there will be no excuses accepted.

Most people will accept a comfortable lie, rather than an uncomfortable truth. The devil relies on the fact that human nature does not change.
