AFTER HE HATH KILLED
"And I say unto you My friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. But I will forewarn you Whom ye shall fear: Fear Him, which AFTER HE HATH KILLED hath power to cast into Hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear Him."
— The Lord Jesus Christ (Luke 12:4-5 King James Version)

I took the online version of the quiz. And, despite utilizing the KJV as my main translation for over 40 years, I only scored 80% correct. And, that's even with the amount of study that I've done beyond what a typical Bible reader would do. Some of it devoted to whether or not the KJV is the best or even the perfect version of the Bible.

I definitely do not understand the KJV as well as I thought I did. And, the test results definitely cause me to doubt the ability of the average person from my generation or later being able to truly understand the KJV.
