“ISN'T THE BIBLE FULL OF ERRORS”
YES AND NO!
YES - IF YOU ARE READING ANY
VERSION OTHER THAN THE KING
JAMES BIBLE
AND
NO - IF YOU ARE READING THE KING
JAMES BIBLE.
IT SEEMS HARD TO COMPREHEND THAT WE COULD
HAVE A PERFECT UNIVERSE THAT GOD CREATED AND THAT WE COULD BE FEARFULLY AND
WONDERFULLY MADE, BUT GOD COULDN'T OVERSEE THE PRODUCTION OF A PERFECT BIBLE
WITHOUT ANY ERRORS IN IT?
WHAT IS THE REASON?
DID HE GET TIRED, DID MAN DEFEAT GOD IN
PASSING ON HIS INFALLIBLE
WORDS, WERE THE FORCES OF EVIL
TOO POWERFUL FOR GOD?
THE ANSWER TO ALL OF THESE IS NO!
The WORDS of
the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven
times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from
this generation for ever."
Psalm 12:6-7
*************************
(In this paper we'll look at the
New King James Version as people think that
this version is the best of a bad bunch.)
WHAT ABOUT THE NEW
KING JAMES VERSION?
The New King James Version has nothing whatever to
do with the inerrant King James Bible. It has its name and that is all. Jerry
Falwell thought that he'd try to be God's little helper and make a version that
was suitable for modern man. Unfortunately, he and his team made a complete and
utter hash of the job. What they did was to get the King James Bible and change
it with readings and verses and words out of the American Standard Version -
ASV (1901) and the Revised Standard Version - RSV (1951).
WHAT IS WRONG WITH
THIS?
Unfortunately for Jerry, he hadn't done his
homework, because the ASV and the RSV are two of the most corrupt versions ever
produced. You see the Bible clearly states that "a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump"
(1 Corinthians 5:6).
In the Bible leaven is
referred to as evil and corruptness. As you well know leaven can't be separated
from the loaf once it is baked, it in fact corrupts the whole loaf. There is a
popular saying that says `chew the meat and spit out the bones' but unfortunately
this is not a Scriptural saying but just another worldly saying.
REFERRED TO AS LEAVEN?
Very
simply the two main documents (Vaticanus and Sinaiticus) that the ASV and the
RSV were based on were corrupt.
WHERE DID VATICANUS
AND SINAITICUS COME FROM?
There was a fellow called Origen who lived from
184-254 AD. He believed that:
1. Jesus Christ never rose from the dead
(Space
does not permit the further outrageous un-Scriptural lies he believed in). The
poor fellow even castrated himself because he misinterpreted Matthew 5:29.
Anyhow, Satan used
this Bible corrector to grossly distort the real Scriptures that existed at the
time.
WHERE WERE THE REAL
SCRIPTURES?
In the Bible (Acts 11:26) there is a place called Antioch and
this is mentioned as the place where people first became known as Christians. These
early Christians had the real Scriptures and kept them safe. In due time
these Christians went down to Alexandria in Egypt to preach the Gospel to the
pagans down there. Now Satan got upset and used Origen to produce Vaticanus and
eventually Sinaiticus to derail and confuse everybody as to what the real
Scriptures were. Quite clever don't you think? Now, ask yourself this question
- if you were Satan, WOULD YOU BE INTERESTED IN CORRUPTING THE SCRIPTURES?
Too right you would! In fact this is what he got
Eve to do in Genesis 3:1 when he asked her,
"...hath God said?" You see as long as Satan can get you to doubt,
he's doing his job. His grand plan of course is to get you to think that there
are other versions of the Bible that are equally as good as the King James, but
every other version other than the King James is crammed full with mistakes,
omissions, additions, errors and lies.
He was Satan's tool - a man of vast influence and
around 331AD he ordered that 50 "bibles" be made based on the corrupt
Origen's manuscripts of Vaticanus and Sinaiticus. Shortly after this a Roman
Catholic called Jerome translated these manuscripts into Latin and form the
basis of the Roman Catholic Bible today.
Now, under intense persecution, the true believers
had escaped with copies of the true Scriptures. Centuries later they were still
being attacked (look into history and read the dreadful persecutions that the
Roman Catholic church perpetrated upon the Waldensians, Albigensians and the
Hussites. These people had the true Scriptures from the first century which
were passed down from true Christian to true Christian).
God saw fit to have a Bible printed in English and
so King James ordered that
the true Bible be placed into the hands of the common man so he could read it
for himself. You see up till then, Europe had been in, over 1,000 years of
darkness, domination and persecution from the Roman Catholic church.
This was a time of unprecedented missionary
and evangelization of the whole world using nothing but the King James Bible.
The Roman Catholics had produced their own versions of the Bible but as history
has shown, these weren't even in the race.
WHAT HAPPENED IN 1860?
At
this time, Satan got two Roman Catholic stooges - Westcott and Hort (they were
posing as Anglican churchmen) - to produce a new Bible called the Revised
Version which they brought out in 1886. Unbeknown to but a few, this
`masterpiece' (you guessed it) was based on Satan's Vaticanus and Sinaiticus.
The ASV of 1901 and the RSV of 1951 are based squarely on these two corrupt
manuscripts as well.
JERRY FALWELL IS A SINCERE MAN
But
sincerely wrong! Satan has used this man to mix the Satanic manuscripts with
God's pure and unadulterated words of the King James Bible. (Please write to us and get further brochures on the New King James Version and
how corrupt it is.) Go into a Christian Bookshop and get Gail Riplingers
"NEW AGE BIBLE VERSIONS BOOK" and check all this out for
yourself. There are literally thousands of errors in the NKJV. If you are reading
the New King James and thinking you are reading a version better than the
others that are so obviously wrong - think again!
WHAT IF THERE ARE MISTAKES IN THE
KING JAMES BIBLE?
In
this case you are to find the Book that God was talking about in Psalm 12:6-7 and Jesus in Matthew 24:35: "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not
pass away."
If you have been convinced by someone that
the King James Bible has mistakes in it, then you should toss it into the
waste-paper basket on top of your NIV, NASV and NKJV and both of the Greek Texts
of Vaticanus and Sinaiticus. Then go to that person, fall on your knees and say
to them, "Master and Lord, what will you have me do?" You see, they
have made themselves an authority over the King James Bible.
I would sincerely urge you to get the following
book mentioned before - "New Age Bible Versions" and study this
matter for yourself.
NOW
FINALLY - JOHN 14:23
"Jesus answered and
said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words..." Now the New King James agrees with the Roman
Catholic Version when it says "...he
will keep my word...".
