Hearing ~ Romans 10:17~ � So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. �
Reading ~ Nehemiah 8:8 ~ � So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading. � Isnt that Amazing God does that ?
Studying ~ 2 Timothy 2:15~ � Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. �
I can�t speak for any of you only myself. I�m not Ashamed of Jesus* and as a Christian I will Rightly Divide the Word Tell you the Differance between the Truth and the Lie...

The Greatest Verses and the Longest Verses IN the HOLY Bible IS About the HOLY Bible. 2nd Timothy 3:16~17 � All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. :17~ That the man of GOD maybe perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. �

I ask again�Do you know where to find the Word ?
The Most Hated, Revieled, Torn Apart Book in the World is the AV1611 better known as the Authorized King James aka A~KJV. This very Moment in Time the Act of Changes, Re-Writes, Sub-Stitutions and the Grievest of All Acts is the Re-Moveals of GOD�s Word. [ God, Jesus, Holy Ghost, Christ, Lord, Blood, Salvation ] is being Removed and Omitted from the HOLY Bible in these Other Translations. Is this Act Inspireard ? Profitable ? Doctrine ? Reproof ? Correct ? Righteous ? Perfect, Thoroughly Furnished ? All GOOD�NO !!!
People say � I can�t read or understand the A~KJV with All the Ye�s, Thee�s and Thous�s. There are to many words that are spelt�opps�spelled wrong. They don�t make sence.�
What people are Really Saying is They Don�t Even Want to Try to Read it. People say � There is no difference between the A~KJV and other Translations. People say All Bibles Say the Samething. People say they are just Words.� Is that the Truth ? Does All Word Convey the Same Message ? Does All the Word in Other Translations Lead to Jesus* ? Is All the Word in the Bible you Read ? Are you sure about ?
Wording Differences ~ NKJV ~ 2200. NIV ~ 5,219. NSV ~ 3,561. LB ~ 17,000. RSV ~6,985. That�s a lot of Differences�
The Word � Christ � Removed & Omitted�NIV ~ 25. NASB ~ 34. RSV ~ 30.
The Word � Lord � referring to Jesus Christ Removed & Omitted�NIV ~ 352. NASB ~ 430.
The Word � Blood � Jesus shed for our SINS Removed & Omitted�NIV ~ 41 New Testament. ASV ~ 39 New Testament
That�s not even including the Complete Verses Removed and Omitted. Here is a Verse Removed & Omitted form NIV, NASB, ERV. 1st John 5:7 ~ � For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.�...Thats a very Important Word and Verse missing don�t you think ?
People say and write all kinds of words but it isn�t always Truth. So how is a Lost Thirsty Seeker or New Baby in Jesus* Christ going to Find All the Word [ Truth ] if some Ya-hoo on this site, or Preacher in their Church, or some Book Store clerk Tells or Sells them Otherwise ? I�m going to suggest a A~KJV everytime�
Did you know that there are over 300 English translations on the market today by many Publishers. Many have been taken off the market because they didn�t sell and new ones will come out next week. All have one thing in common. They ALL Profess to Be an Improvement on the A~KJV. Do you ever wonder why the other translations claim to be better ? I don�t.
Satan is the Great Deceiver. 2nd John 1:7~ � For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.� Satan doesn�t want You to Know the Truth. GOD Desires You to Know The Word, The Way, The Truth and The Life.
The word Damnation is removed from every place in the NKJV. No one is Damed ( Eternal�Hell�Seperation from GOD ) They are just Condemd ( Scolded�by Satan in Ha�daes ). People say Its not a Big Deal right ? Wrong ! It�s a very Big Deal if You Profess to be a Christian and even Bigger Deal to the Lost and Seeking.
In My Honest Opinion�People don�t Need a New Improved Bible�They Just Need to Read it�and Read Again�and Again�and Again�and Again�and Again�and Again��.
I Believe with my Whole Heart that God�s Word is Truth. I Believe that God�s Word will Never cause Confusion or Mis-Lead His creation [ Man, Women, Child ]. I Believe God�s Word�the Name Jesus* is Worth Defending to the Death. After All�Jesus* Paid the Full Sacrificial Atonement Price for You and Others�
John 3:15 ~ � That [ whosoever ] believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.�
Acts 2:21 ~ � And it shall come to pass, that [ whosoever ] shall call on the [ name ] of the Lord shall be saved.�
Colossians 1:13~ � Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated [us] into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 ~ In whom we have redemption [ through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: � ]
He died for YOU !!! So You may have Everlasting Life with Him�Jesus*�Now that�s a Really Big Deal�Don�t you think ?
GOD said�Isaiah 55:11~ � So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. �
Inside the A~KJV Bible�GOD�s Word�Inspired and Written�You will find GOD Made No Mistakes...The A~KJV Bible Tells the Greatest Story Forever to be Told�And the Best Part is Finding the Way the TRUTH and the Life�Jesus*�and You haven�t Missed ONE Word in the Journey�
Jesus* said in ~
Matthew 24:35 � Heaven and earth shall pass away, but [ my words ] shall Not pass away �
John 8:58 � Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, [ I am. ]
John 14:6 ~ Jesus saith unto him, � I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.�

His Name and Word is being Removed and Omitted out of the HOLY Bible�His Name is JESUS*�the � I AM ��the � Almighty �
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto mu path. Psalm 119: 105 _____________________________ I have no trouble understanding the KJV. It's the only one I've ever read. It's like jude said if you have trouble , read it again and again. Or pray about it and let God give you the understanding.
I remember the lord directing me to the king james version, not to say it is the best translation, but I know for me I am a fast reader and with the king james version, I have to slow down and intentionally take note of what I am reading.
I am sorry Sister that I have to do this, but truth is truth.
First of all the "omited" verses are not omited, they are in the footnotes of the other Translations, and for good reasons.
Secondly, there are valid reasons there are minor changes between the KJV and other translations. And until you know excatly why, you would do well to find out before you speak.
For instance, the LXX (Septuagint) was not used in the translation of the KJV Old Testament. The KJV was translated from the MT (Masoretic Text) Why is this important?.... Well for a few reasons: The LXX was written in Greek and was the same text Jesus and the New Testament writers used and quoted from. We have manuscripts from 100-200 B.C. The M.T. manuscripts date to around The 1500's A.D. (LXX is 700 years older!) The MT is written in Hebrew, kept and copied by the Jews. There are valid accusations after the split between Jews and Christians that the Jews when adding vowels and punctuation to the MT (original Hebrew had no vowels) that they did not act in good faith to the text when modernizing prophetic passages and words that were fulfilled in Jesus.
Jude, I hope your eyes are bugging out about now! But don't worry the KJV is still a excellent work, however if a person is serious about Bible study, they should have multiple translations, as many as they can afford!
Geart teaching lesson Jude:applause: And you are so right, there are so many Bible being written by so many book piblisher and writers, they are omitting many important verses and words that are written in the original manuscript of the Bible. Man putting his take on God's word and changin it to mean what he would like for it to mean and say.
@sparrow, are you saying that words and passages are missing and are in footnotes of these new translations of the Bible for a reason and purpose? Iunno, I think many of these words and passage have been left out by morden man as not to offend and to make God's word nice and sweet, as not to convict men of their sins.
I'm not too clear of your comment, but it is my understanding that the Old Testement was written in the Hebrew and then translated into the Greek and other languages, and the New Testement was originally written in the Greek and then translated into Latin and other languages. This is why only the priest used the Bible in the early days becasue it was written in Latin, until Wycliffe translated the Bible from Latin into English.
KJV replaced the Bishop Bible... but I think what Jude is speaking mostly about is how much is left out of the NEW Bibles that is important... just my understanding of her post and information.
James white, on of the best Christian apologists today, puts on seminars at my church once a year.
He wrote a book called "the King James Only Controversy"
I asked him once, if it made any difference?
I mean, say I am reading the NIV, or the NAS, and the King James Only people are reading ONLY JKV.
would that lead to any difference in Doctrine??
He said, "even if you take the most extreme positions taken by the KJV onlyists, it would not make ANY difference in doctrine."
So, I just think it is silly to act like a translation is inspired.
I know the KJV onlyists, are REALLY concerned with the Texts used in translation, but if it does not lead to ANY difference in Doctrine, then WHY should I care????
