    No. The Holman Bible is just a book written on behalf of the Southern Baptist. That's no different than the vatican writing the NIV, NASV, NRSV, etc.

    Stick with the King James Bible. You will never go wrong.

    Here is an article on the The Holman Christian Standard Bible (below). It's a little long but it clearly shows that it will never be as good as the King James Bible (AV1611).

    There has been over 400 versions of the English Bible since the King James Bible was published in 1611. How many more do we need?

    The Holman Christian standard Bible is a Bible translated by Baptist. It meaning is very similar to king James but the words are simpler to understand. For example John 3:16 would say only begotten Son of God the Holman says the one and only Son of God.

    For many non-Catholic "Christians," it's just "the individual, the Bible, and Jesus," and, ignoring the question of where the Bible came from in the first place, any mention of man and his institutions assisting in the plan of salvation is seen as a contradiction of 1 Timothy 2:5, "For there is one God, and one mediator of God and men, the man Christ Jesus." This, of course, ignores that which comes four verses before —

    I desire therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions and thanksgivings be made for all men.
    and two verses after —

    Whereunto I am appointed a preacher and an apostle (I say the truth, I lie not), a doctor of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
    – let alone the rest of the Book which is filled with teachings and exhortations, showing clearly that Paul acted as a "mediator" among the Word, the word, and the people. James 5:19-20 clearly speaks of the roles we humans play in salvation —

    My brethren, if any of you err from the truth and one convert him: He must know that he who causeth a sinner to be converted from the error of his way shall save his soul from death and shall cover a multitude of sins.
    – as does 1 Timothy 4:16:

    Take heed to thyself and to doctrine: be earnest in them. For in doing this thou shalt both save thyself and them that hear thee.
