The longest used Bible by Anglicans is the Authorized Version, better known as the King James Version which was completed in 1611. Most Anglican Churches, such as the Anglican Church of Canada, use the New Revised Standard Version for most readings.

As opposed to most other Protestants who believe in Sola Scriptura, Anglicans hold to the belief that scripture contains all things necessary to salvation.
