Modern Versions of the Bible

5 Charges Against
Modern Versions of the Bible

Rewriting the Word of God is a convenient
way to make the Scriptures say what
we want them to say.

Biblical revisionism is a chronic ailment of our day.

Jeremiah 23:30 says, "I am against the prophets, saith the Lord, that steal my words every one from his neighbor."

Jeremiah 23:36 tells us "Ye have perverted the words of the living God."

The "new versions" demote God, as seen in the Lord’s Prayer.

KJV – "Our Father which art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name."

NASB omits OUR and WHICH ART IN HEAVEN.

NIV omits OUR and WHICH ART IN HEAVEN.

These are the very words which distinguish "Our Father in heaven who delivers us from evil" from the false god whom Jesus exposed in John 8:44, saying, "Ye are of your father the devil."

NIV – "Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread, forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation." That is it. All of it.

Any occultist can pray this prayer. Satanists can pray this prayer.

They devalue Jesus Christ.

KJV – I John 2:22, "Who is a liar; but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ"

Who is "the Morning Star?" KJV – Rev. 22:16, "I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star."

NIV – NASB – CALL Lucifer the "morning star" and the star of the morning".

Both these perversions have removed Lucifer from their text, thereby removing Lucifer from the entire Bible.

The new versions deify man

Alice Bailey said, "The Christ nature is in every human being." A Hindu guru taught, "In his real nature man is divine."

NASB – Psalm 8:5 "thou hast made him a little lower than God." ??????????

NIV – "You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings."

KJV – "For Thou hast made Him a little lower than the angels."

The new versions diminish the stigma of sin.

"fornication" is changed to "immorality".

"immorality" – does not describe fornication, which is forbidden.

"whore" and "whoremonger." Changed to "immoral persons." – Revelation 21:8

KJV – "and come, take up the cross, and follow Me."

NASB, RSV, AND NIV – "take up the cross" are left out,

Matthew 5:44 – this truth is omitted: "Bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you and despitefully use you."

They denigrate Scripture.

Genesis 24:47 -

KJV - "...and I put the earring upon her face, and the bracelets upon her hands."

NIV – "Then I put the ring in her nose and bracelets on her arms."

NKJV – SAME.

John 14:2 –

KJV – "In my Father’s house are many mansions,"

NASB – "In my Father’s house are many dwelling places"

NIV – "In my fathers’ house are many rooms."

James 5:16

KJV – "Confess your faults one to another."

NIV – "Confess your sins to each other."

No, we confess our sins unto God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
