Are YOU a son of God?

John 3:16 is the most recognizable verse in the entire Bible. The King James says:

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

How do other versions translate this, the most popular salvation verse in the entire Bible?

NIV 16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

ESV 16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

LV 16 For God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son so that anyone who believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Mess 16 “This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son.

RSV 16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

(I could add other modern versions, but this is enough to show the trend)

Wait - are YOU a son of God (or a child/daughter if you are female)? NOT according to your favorite modern version! They all have Jesus as God's ONLY son. So you are NOT a son of God, according to your modern version.

Of course the KJB included "only BEGOTTEN son", which makes all the difference! Jesus was God's only BEGOTTEN Son. Jesus was not God's ONLY son. I am a son of God. So are you, if you trust in Him for your salvation.

And you can clearly see the KJB is not more difficult to understand here. If your Bible version is WRONG here, in a key salvation verse, what else might it be wrong about? Why risk it? Stick with the proven Bible.

NIV SUPPORTS ABORTION!

 

(stolen from someone who says he stole it from some Italian named Dominic)

NIV SUPPORTS ABORTION:

NIV Num 5:27 If she has made herself impure and been unfaithful to her husband, this will be the result: When she is made to drink the water that brings a curse and causes bitter suffering, it will enter her, her abdomen will swell and her womb will miscarry, and she will become a curse.

KJB Num 5:27 And when he hath made her to drink the water, then it shall come to pass, that, if she be defiled, and have done trespass against her husband, that the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall rot: and the woman shall be a curse among her people.

Nothing about a miscarriage in the KJB.

No wonder my friends don't like it when I expose the different Bible versions.

Lordship Salvation

Rom 10:9 (KJB) That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 

There can be some legitimate dispute on whether "confess with thy mouth" is literal or figurative, whether it applies to salvation or after salvation - but it's indisputable that the passage is saying Jesus is already Lord, we do not confess that He is Lord to be saved. We confess the Lord Jesus Christ. The specific words we say or pray are not as vital as what we BELIEVE.

Rom 10:9 (CSB) If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Rom 10:9 (NLT) If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Rom 10:9 (ESV) because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Rom 10:9 (NET) because if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Rom 10:9 (RSV) because, if you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Rom 10:9 (ASV) because if thou shalt confess with thy mouth Jesus as Lord, and shalt believe in thy heart that God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved:

Rom 10:9 (DBY) that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth Jesus as Lord, and shalt believe in thine heart that God has raised him from among the dead, thou shalt be saved.

Rom 10:9 (BBE) Because, if you say with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and have faith in your heart that God has made him come back from the dead, you will have salvation:

Rom 10:9 (NIV) If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Rom 10:9 (NASB20) that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;

Rom 10:9 (NASB95) that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; ALL these modern versions teach that you must confess "Jesus is Lord" to be saved. That's NOT the same thing. It's only about salvation. We know the modern versions don't affect any important doctrines, right? Therefore, salvation must not be an important doctrine.

BIBLE on the MOON (and Antarctica!)

10:15 mark in the video. 

One certain Bible version has been to all seven continents (including Antarctica) and the moon! Guess which one? 

https://tij.tv/shows/the-book-that-went-to-the-moon-2/

If there's a God and if God is God - do you really think that's just an accident? 

Our church's Bearing Precious Seed Ministry has distributed King James Bibles on ALL seven continents - including Antarctic, where the late Fred Swanson brought some. I don't know of any other Bibles on Antarctica. 

The King James Bible has been quoted in space, quoted on the moon, and taken to the moon. I know of no other version that has.

Out of the ashes of a tragedy came the Apollo Prayer League with a mission to land a Bible on the moon in Ed White's name. - The First Lunar Bible

Rev. John Stout's and the Apollo Prayer League completed the quest to land the Bible on the Moon. - Reverend John Stout, Director, the Apollo Prayer League

Creator God or Drunken Robin Hood?

Prov 26:10 (KJB) The great God that FORMED ALL THINGS both rewardeth the fool, and rewardeth transgressors.

(NIV) Like an archer who wounds at random is he who hires a fool or any passer-by.

(NASB) Like an archer who wounds everyone, So is he who hires a fool or who hires those who pass by.

(AMP) [But] like an archer who wounds all, so is he who hires a fool or chance passers-by.

(NLT) An employer who hires a fool or a bystander is like an archer who shoots recklessly. 

(ASV) As an archer that woundeth all, So is he that hireth a fool and he that hireth them that pass by.

(ESV) Like an archer who wounds everyone is one who hires a passing fool or drunkard.

(CEV) It's no smarter to shoot arrows at every passerby than it is to hire a bunch of worthless nobodies.

The Creator God is replaced with some kind of drunken Robin Hood. In Rev 6, and in OT descriptions, the Antichrist is the archer! This is much like the modern versions who call Lucifer the "morning star" in Isa 14:12, which is a title for Jesus Christ in Rev 22:16.

Do you want a Bible that confuses the Lord with the devil, twice?

Created BY Christ, From the Beginning

Eph 3:9 (KJB) And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the BEGINNING of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things BY JESUS  CHRIST:

(NIV) ... which for AGES PAST was kept hidden in God, who  created all things [by NOBODY].

(NASB)  ... which for AGES has been hidden in God who  created all things [by NOBODY];

(ASV) ... which for AGES hath been hid in God who created all things  [by NOBODY];

(RSV) ...  hidden for AGES in God who created all things [by NOBODY];

(ESV) ... hidden for AGES in God who created all things, [by NOBODY]

(CEV) God, who created everything [by NOBODY],

Ages past? What does that tell you? Not much. Not as much as “from the beginning” - that is specific, settled. And Somebody is missing from the verse. Who might that be? Only Jesus Christ - apparently nobody important if you want to have a Bible version with the “same message”.

(NLT) ... God, the Creator of all things [by NOBODY];

Hey! A version that got it half right! Except the Living Bible left out Jesus too. What good are all these versions that leave out Jesus? BTW, Jesus Christ is in the Greek Textus Receptus here. My Nestles Alexandrian Greek text omits Jesus Christ, but has a footnote, and the critical apparatus lists several Alexandrian texts that contain  Jesus Christ. Why would a modern version want to take Jesus Christ out of the Bible? Who would be the inspiration for that?

Maybe the New KJV get is right. That’s translated from the same manuscripts, they say:

  

(NKJV) ... the beginning of the AGES … THROUGH Jesus Christ;

Closer, but still not there. “Beginning of the ages” sounds like a compromise of a politically correct liberal politician. Even the Nkjv doesn't have Jesus Christ actually doing the creating. The Real King James has the creation done BY Him, but the New King James has the creation done "through" Him, which can mean almost anything. If a president sends  message through his secretary - who really wrote the message? That sounds like a politically correct Catholic liberal politician.

Is removing Jesus Christ only a "minor" change that "doesn't affect any doctrine" and has the "same message", like the modern version advocates claim?

Which versions would an evolutionist prefer?

Begotten god?

Only Begotten What?

John 1:18 (KJB) No man hath seen God at any time; the only  BEGOTTEN SON, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.

(NIV) No one has ever seen God, but God the One and Only, who is at the Father's side, has made him known.

(ESV) No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father's side, he has made him known.

These two make the one at the father's side the ONLY God - which logically means the Father is not God!

(RSV) No one has ever seen God; the ONLY SON, who is in the bosom of the Father, he has made him known.

(NLT) No one has ever seen God. But his ONLY SON, who is himself God, is near to the Father's heart; he has told us about him.

(CEV) No one has ever seen God. The ONLY SON, who is truly God and is closest to the Father, has shown us what God is like. 

These make Jesus the ONLY Son. Dinosaur feathers! I'M a son of God, as is every saved individual. But I'm not the ONLY BEGOTTEN Son of God. That's Jesus!

(NASB) No one has seen God at any time; the only BEGOTTEN GOD who is in the bosom of the Father, He has explained Him.

(AMP) No man has ever seen God at any time; the only unique Son, or the only BEGOTTEN GOD, …

These make the worst blaspheme of all, calling Jesus a BEGOTTEN God, meaning He is not the ETERNAL Creator.

Again, which versions would an atheist, evolutionist, or Christ denier prefer?
