Bible Version Comparison
by Terry Watkins
"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." Psalms 12:6,7 A
comparison of seven popular versions "The
approved method of the present
The fall of mankind began with this question: "Yea hath God said...?" "Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, YEA, HATH GOD SAID...?" (Genesis 3:1) The battle is for the Word of God. Psalms 12:6-7 says, "The words of the Lord are PURE words:...Thou shalt KEEP them, O LORD, thou shalt PRESERVE them from this generation for ever." I believe that as God promised in Psalms 12:6,7, He did "keep" and "preserve" His word. I believe the King James Bible is the "preserved" word of God for the English-speaking people. And I believe the new translations are satanic counterfeits to cast doubt by causing confusion in the word of God. Since 1880, over 200 different translations have appeared! Time magazine writes "...there is an unprecedented CONFUSION of choices in Bibles. Never have so many major new translations been on the market" I've had people say many times. "This Bible says one thing, that Bible says another, and that Bible says another. Which one is right? 1 Corinthians 14:33 says, "God is not the author of CONFUSION." BUT SATAN IS! Satan knows if he can plant a seed of doubt and confusion in the word of God - chances are that individual will never take God's word serious! Most people believe the new versions are just "harmless" updating of words and made easier to understand. NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH! The new versions "take out" and "add" thousands of words. And, as with Eve, it's all done very subtil. The average reader would never know the difference!
o = Omits a = Adds And if you think these are minor changes like "thee" and "thou" etc., below are 15 major Bible words and the number of times they differ from the King James Bible.
o = Omits a = Adds * = Totally Removed Jesus Christ, in the parable of the sower and the see, said, "Now the parable is this: The SEED is the word of God...then cometh THE DEVIL, and TAKETH AWAY the word..." (Luke 8:11-12) The following COMPLETE VERSES are "taken away"!
T = Taken Away F = Taken Away in Footnotes Dr. Gordon Fee, professor at Wheaton College and a defender of new versions said in Christianity Today: "The contemporary translations as a group have one thing in common: they tend to agree AGAINST THE KJV...in OMITTING hundreds of words, phrases, and verses." The new versions change "Lucifer" to "morning star" in Isaiah 14:12. Revelation 22:16 clearly says the "morning star" is the Jesus Christ! Why do they blasphemously reference Lucifer to Jesus Christ? Especially when the Hebrew word for star (kokab) is NOT in Isaiah 14:21! The new versions convert the Lord's prayer in Luke 11:2-4 to the Devil's prayer by "taking away" - ALL the references to HEAVEN and "deliver us from evil"! They openly LIE in 2 Samuel 21:19: "...Elhanan son of Jaare-Oregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath". Every Sunday School child KNOWS David killed Goliath! The new versions openly LIE in Mark 1:2. They change "prophets" to "Isaiah" - when the quoted verse is NOT in Isaiah - but in Malachi 3:1! According to Psalms 119:160, "...thy word is TRUE..." - these Bibles CANNOT possibly be the words of God! THEY'RE NOT TRUE!
