Bible Question: Why is Acts 8:37 included in the King James Version and New King James Version but not in comtemporary versions such as the NIV? |
Bible Answer: CHICK PUBLICATIONS "Chick Publications has, since its inception, been a bit sensationalistic at times. We do not believe that their approach is the best to use in presenting the gospel. For example, in a number of their volumes in The Crusaders comic series, they use John Todd as an authority on witchcraft and related subjects, and Todd has been proved to be a “teller of tales” (to put it mildly). "Also, the volume entitled Sabotage, where the King James Version is purported to be the only accurate translation -- all others being Roman Catholic perversions -- is also inaccurate and unreliable. "Furthermore, the two issues entitled Alberto and Double Cross are historically inaccurate, unreliable in content, and unchristian in approach. "So, we do not endorse or promote Chick Publications. ...based on the above observations as well as on the whole, we do not feel they are a reliable tool." (http://www.equip.org/search/) |
