Hi Kalos, Yes I would be able to give you examples in the NIV. Here are some and there are many more if you require them. #1.The lies in the modern versions go much deeper than erring on who killed Goliath. They, like the Mormons, confuse Jesus with Lucifer. In Isaiah 14:12, we read: "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!" The verse clearly talks about Satan, called Lucifer before he fell from heaven. There are few credible scholars who question this matter. Yet, the modern translations all read, "How you have fallen from heaven, O Morning Star, son of the dawn. . ." The "modern versions" change "Lucifer" to "Morning Star". Has the devil suddenly changed his status and become some kind of a good guy? We rather doubt it. The use of "Morning Star" concerns us because of Revelation 22:16: "I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star." Jesus calls himself the "bright and morning star" so calling the devil that in Isaiah must be an incorrect translation. #2. The clearest example is in Psalm 9:17: which says,"The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God." The NIV reading,"The wicked return to the GRAVE . . ." is clearly absurd, for we all "return to the grave." The issue is what happens to our soul after we die. The devil would prefer that we not think about that place called hell. In fact, he would rather call it something else. So instead of using the word Hell, they come up with the nice Greek word "Hades" (also a place in Greek mythology) or Hebrew "Sheol," which is not the same as Hell.(See Matt. 16:18, Luke 16:23, Acts 2:31 and many, many more, the "NEW King James" does this 29 times!) Rather than translate into the obvious word hell - THEY REFUSE TO TRANSLATE IT! When the translators are questioned about this,they contend "this is a better translation" and are "easier to read" and "understand"? Who in their right mind thinks the words Hades or Sheol is "easier to understand" than the word Hell? Why didn't they leave in the Greek word Ouranos for heaven? It's obvious! Because someone is trying to remove and cast doubt on the place called Hell! #3.The King James Bible in Luke 11:2-4, reads,"And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. Give us day by day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil."Incredibly, the "modern versions" take out: "which are in heaven," plus they remove "Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth," and most interestingly "deliver us from evil." Heaven is completely removed! To believe these "modern scholars," God is not in heaven and does not deliver us from evil. This is sounding more and more like a demonic program from hell itself. #4.The King James Bible is the only English Bible in the world that has a command to "study" your Bible! That's right! 2 Timothy 2:15 teaches us to: "STUDY to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth" The "modern bible translators" apparently think that Bible study is not so necessary. The program is apparent here. Just go to a church, sit in a pew, and let the preacher "enlighten" you. Also, it will be easier for you to accept the beast system when it comes. Sorry I had to cut this short as I have exceeded the number of words I am allowed in a note. In Christ, KJ. |

Hi Kalos, Here is another example in NIV/others: In Acts 8:37, the King James reads,"And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God." The modern versions all edit out the entire verse! One of the best verses in the Bible on salvation through Jesus Christ and they edit it out! Why is it that every time a sinner is saved by grace in the book of Acts - THEY ATTACK IT? In Acts 9:5,6: Paul is getting saved, and they take out 20 words! In Acts 16:31 when the Philippian jailer is getting saved, the word "CHRIST" is delicately removed! Why do these new bibles so fiercely attack God's wonderful plan of salvation? They take out: Romans 16:24, Mark 11:26, Acts 15:34, Luke 23:17, Acts 28:29, John 5:4, Mark 7:16, 9:44,46 and many, many more - as your Bible is literally cut apart! Jesus Christ says, in Luke 4:4, ". . . It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD OF GOD." Not according to the NIV, NASV, NRSV and ! In fact, they even "tear out" the last half of Luke 4:4 - "BUT BY EVERY WORD OF GOD"! Yes, but the new versions have the deity in other places. They contain the plan of salvation in other places. There is good in them. Did you know ONE tiny, microscopic AIDS virus will "defile" a whole batch of perfectly "good" blood? It has some "good" in it - BUT IT WOULD BE DEADLY! Would you "inject" it into your child, loved one or congregation? And would you "inject" them with a Bible that is "defiled" because it has some "good"? It could be far more costly than their physical life - THEIR ETERNAL SOUL! Galatians 5:9 says, "A LITTLE leaven leaveneth THE WHOLE lump." Brother Kalos, if you want more examples I have them. In Christ, KJ. |

"not a part of the original text of Acts." Ken John: Thank you for providing the information I requested. I have no wish to be argumentative. I merely ask that you consider the following information. The issue of why the NIV "edits out" this verse is, in fact, addressed in the NIV translators' note. NIV Footnote at Acts 8:36. 'Some manuscripts add verse 37: Philip said, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." The eunuch answered, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God."' NASB Acts 8:37 [[1] And Philip said, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." And he answered and said, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God."] (Footnote 1. Early mss do not contain this verse) The NET Bible, Note at Acts 8:36 '92tc A few later mss (E 36 323 453 945 1739 1891 pc) add, with minor variations, 8:37 “He said to him, ‘If you believe with your whole heart, you may.’ He replied, ‘I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.’” Verse 37 is lacking in [Ì45,74 Í A B C 33 614 vg syp,h co]. It is clearly not a part of the original text of Acts. The variant is significant in showing how some in the early church viewed a confession of faith.'

Greetings Kalos, Thank you for your explanation and the website which I often refer to, thanks. As you will appreciate I only use the KJV for my studies but sometimes brouse other versions out of interest. Debates re other versions are time consuming and not sometimes profitable for study purposes. There is so much to learn of God's Word thus I prefer to stick to KJV and the commentaries of learned men who have studied the Word of God for many years. In Christ, Ken John |
