Is the NKJV a counterfeit translation? Listen Below

The audio below is a podcast response to an article written by Terry Watkins on the NKJV. The article begins by first defining the word 'counterfeit' and then the author draws attention to Satan's deceptive tactics and desires for his reader to see a connection between the two.

Counterfeit: to imitate or copy closely especially with intent to deceive.

 The greatest method of deception is to counterfeit. And the master of counterfeit and deception is Satan. The Bible in 2 Corinthians 11:14-15 warns of Satan's counterfeit: "And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness;. . ." Isaiah 14: 14 tells of Satan's ultimate counterfeit: ". . . I will BE LIKE the most High." And among his greatest counterfeit's is the New King James Bible (NKJV). Christians that would never touch a New International Version (NIV), New American Standard (NASV), Revised Standard (RSV), the New Revised Standard (NRSV) or other per-versions are being "seduced" by the subtle NKJV. And though the New King James does indeed bear a "likeness" to the 1611 King James Bible, as you'll soon see, there's something else coiled (see Genesis 3:1) "underneath the cover" of the NKJV....more can be found at http://www.av1611.org/nkjv.html.
