Is a conversion appropriate in this circumstance?

Chabads on-line Torah resources are translated very well according to everyone I speak with. I myself use an Artscroll Chumash to study with although when I daven with Chabad I use their siddur and their Chumash.

Yes, this is a hard-copy version... But you are not permitted to use an electronic version when studying/davening on Shabbat. So you should get a hard-copy of the Chumash (which includes the haftarah portions also and very good commentary).

KJV is not recommended for Jews, it is mistranslated to make it seem like it is talking about the false messiah.

I still don't get how people think Jesus was the messiah given the forgery of the gospels to make to prophecies fit

I use this one, and it's not that expensive.

JTF respects the beliefs of non-Jews even those who believe in Christianity. So we should not spend too much time discussing this aspect of your conversion. So long as you disassociate yourself from those beliefs and are sure that Hashem is the ONE G-d and there is nothing beside him, you are on the right path toward Jewish faith.
