I was doing research on the King James Version when I came across Chick Publications. Does anyone know who they are and what they teach as they have a lot of beliefs and doctrines on their site which Adventist hold.

A lot in common?? Evangelical, futurist, dispensational.

Sad to search in the streets of Bablylon for a solution. Why not ask the Creator of Heaven and Eart?

I thought Chick publications was a publishing house which published / re-publish not only Adventists books, but books from other denominations, too. Didn't know about their beliefs or if their beliefs were relevant to publishing.

If it is relevant, should we buy Bibles published from Zondervan? Or is it that we just should not blindly accept any questions and answers found in those Bibles?

What Adventist books do they republish? As to whether we should buy Bibles from Zondervan, I think is at the heart of the question that Rick has asked about the KJV. Can we trust other versions? It is interesting to note that EGW did quote from the RV and ASV. But by far, most quotes of hers come from the KJV.

It is really amazing that Ellen G White should use the RV, because the two best known translators who worked on the RV were Brooke Foss Westcott and Fenton John Anthony Hort.

How did the Spirit of Prophecy manage in those days without the aid of our modern critics of W&H? Does the Lord need human aid to discover His mistakes?

I suppose I should have qualified that by saying books by Adventists. Because, exactly what is an "Adventist book"? I just recall looking in the front of books and in more than one have seen the name, "Chick publications".

As far as the KJV, Rick has been persistently asking this question and has yet to accept the refutations. But can we trust the KJV? Who authorized it?

It is amazing how far some people will go to discredit Ellen White when she does not honor their pet notions. Just check what is going on to honor the KJV.

Chick Publications still hold to many Protestant beliefs. Especially concerning the Middle Ages -- the papacy and the church in the wilderness.
They have information from Alberto Rivero who exposes secret plans of the Vatican etc.
They expose ecumenicalism as the Catholic church trying to get all churches under her dominion again.

Their big contribution is publishing comic book type of books and pamphlets to present Biblical messages.

They are not Adventist, though some Adventists appreciate some of their material.
They do have a bit of futurism as well (though there were protestants 300+ years ago who were "kingdom" believers as well) They seem to have rapture idea, after which the world is ruled tyrannically from the Vatican in a "new world order" style, with spiritualism everywhere, and finally Christ coming to Jerusalem and setting up an earthly kingdom and ruling the world for 1000 years.

It is their Protestant base, however, that is the foundation of their KJV stand. They document the attempts of the Catholic church to keep the Bible from the people, and feel strongly that the new versions are just more of Catholic and spiritualistic influence to hide truth from the people.

The KJV was a Protestant Bible carefully translated from the manuscripts from the east (Greek) rather than the three contradicting manuscripts that are more favourable to the Vatican mindset.

Anyway -- there's much more -- those are just my observations.

If Chick publications knows the secrets of the Catholic church, how is it they have been blinded to the work of Ribera and have accepted futurism?

If we believe Alberto Rivera published by Chick, then the Jesuits have infiltrated the SDA church at the highest levels. This should give us pause when we proclaim the favored opinions of the upper echelons. It should give us pause to think that we are consolidating our publishing houses effectively shutting out opinions at variance with the leadership.
