I don't think they are actually changing the words. What they are doing, is putting a lot of textual information on the original Aramaic and Greek, and discussing certain ideas within the NT from an LDS apologetics point of view. This one won't be to replace your LDS scriptures. This one will be for home use, where you can get a better understanding of what each verse _really_ means. So, you get the KJV, and the scholarly commentary.
If you've hung out in any Christian bookstores, you'll find similar books. My favorite amongst them has been the Scofield Bible, though it is quite an older commentary. Marc, which versions do you prefer?

Lynn Anderson wrote a simplified version of the Book of Mormon for children and poor readers, and the Brethren nixed the idea. She went ahead and published it anyway. It is pretty hard to change the words without changing the meaning somewhat, and in matters of doctrine the tiniest alteration might have long lasting ramifications. John W.
