[@adamdavis1772]

​@Chuck Driver It is not elitist, Brother just a preference or conviction for some of us. One of the reason many believers, including myself, stick to the KJV instead of other translations like the NKJV, NASB, NIV, or any other newer translations is the base text used for translation. The KJV translation completely excludes the Alexandrian Manuscripts and solely relies on the Textus Receptus. Other differences like word for word translation in the KJV vs thought for thought in the NKJV and NIV make a difference in what the text says because of the differences in interpretation between the methods. A modernizing of the language in the KJV is overdue. Even since when Noah Webster did this in 1828 with the Webster Bible there has been major changes in the usage of words in the English language. If the NKJV had only modernized the language usages and not change translation methods or texts many of us in the KJV only camp would use it instead.

I taught Attic and Koine Greek to classics students in Europe for 25 years. (I'm learning Hebrew but am no expert). Personally, I think there is no excellent translation of the Bible in English. A lot of words in English don't quite grasp the meaning of Greek words. Then you have the figures of speech that are often ignored in the English versions, like hendiadys, hendiatris, hyperbaton, and irony. There are commas inserted in the New Testament that shouldn't be there, and parentheses that should be there but aren't. One example is "I tell you, this day you shall be with me in paradise." That comma was inserted incorrectly. It should read, "I tell you this day, you shall be with me in paradise." "I declare to you this day" is a Hebrew solemn promise found In Deuteronomy and Jewish literature. I recommand EW Bullinger for the better understanding of the Greek and Hebrew. I disagree with him on a lot, but he does have the Greek down pat.

Bible Question #8: What happens to those who do not receive the testimony of Jesus Christ? i.e. what happens to those who do not receive the gift of everlasting life? In many 'modern' versions you won't find out! This is because part of the verse is missing (in Mark 6:11). Let's turn there now. A 'modern' version reads something like: "... shake the dust off your feet when you leave, as a testimony against them." However, the King James gives the full teaching: "... shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU, IT SHALL BE MORE TOLERABLE FOR SODOM AND GOMORRHA IN THE DAY OF JUDGMENT, THAN FOR THAT CITY." I think the reader will agree that this verse contains important information we need to know! Bible Question #9: After we repent, and are born again (come to saving grace), what else does Jesus command us to do? There are many changes that come in our new birth/in our new nature, but the answer I'm looking for is this: We are to make a public profession of faith. Then, we are to be baptized, by immersion, in water. Let's look in Acts chapter 8, verses 35-37. In Acts 8:35 Philip, the Apostle, preached Jesus Christ to the eunuch. In verse 36 the eunuch realized his need to be baptized. The eunuch then asks if he can be baptized. Now, take a look at Acts 8:37 in a 'modern' version of the Bible. Many (but not all) 'modern' versions go from Acts chapter 8 verse 35, to verse 36, then to 38. 38?! Where is verse 37 you ask? And, whatdid verse 37 say? This key verse, properly included in the King James Bible, tells us whom should be baptized. It says: "... IF THOU BELIEVEST WITH ALL THINE HEART, THOU MAYEST." And he [the eunuch] answered and said: "... I BELIEVE THAT JESUS CHRIST IS THE SON OF GOD." Numbering verses 35, 36, and then 38 is NOT new math! 'Modern' versions, which leave out verse 37, are omitting the deity of Jesus Christ. Also, they are missing a key point: We must make a PUBLIC profession of faith. We must believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. If we do not know, believe, and confess that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, our baptism only 'gets us wet'. Leaving out verse 37 omits a major portion of Christian doctrine. Omissions of doctrine and corruptions of doctrine are bad news. In both cases the reader is NOT getting the correct information he/she needs to know. Bible Question #10: Can you recite the Lord's prayer? The Lord's prayer, taught to us by Jesus, and recorded in Luke 11:2-4 of the KJ, is as follows: "... Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. Give us day by day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil." Now turn to Luke 11:2-4 in a 'modern' version and re-read the Lord's prayer. The wording will be similar to: "... Father, hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation". Note this modern version states "Father" but then leaves out "... WHICH ART IN HEAVEN ...". You don't know who you are praying to: your Father in heaven, or to Satan! It also leaves out "our" as in OUR father. We were created by God who is "OUR" father. Satan is a father, but he is not "OUR" father. Satan is the "father" of lies. And this 'modern' version leaves out "THY WILL BE DONE, AS IN HEAVEN, SO IN EARTH". By leaving out the fact that we are praying to our Father WHOSE WILL IS DONE IN HEAVEN, this 'modern' version is re-directing your prayer away from God and toward someone or something else (in another place). Lastly, there is a major omission in the last half of verse 4. Verse 4 states: "And lead us not into temptation". But this verse then leaves out: "... BUT DELIVER US FROM EVIL ..." Personally, I want to be delivered from evil! How about you? I think the reader will agree: This 'modern version' is NOT the "Lord's Prayer" you want to be praying! Think about it. Bible Question #11: After our new birth, how are we supposed to relate to God? Once we are born again we have a new standard for our lives. It is Jesus Christ. The Bible tells us how we are to relate to him. Please turn to Ephesians 5:1. In a 'new' version it says: "... be imitators of God ..." Compare this to the Authorized King James: "Be ye therefore FOLLOWERS of God, ..." Even though we are born again, can we possibly imitate God? Can we be the judge of the universe? Can we be at all places at the same time? No way! We have a new nature, sure, but we are still only men. Think about it; only Satan tries to imitate God! Ever since the garden of Eden, Satan has tried to direct worship toward HIMSELF. We, as men, could NEVER imitate God. We can only FOLLOW God! Publishers of 'new', 'more up to date' versions are encouraging us to be like Satan! (i.e. to think of ourselves as God). Bible Question #12: While we're talking about Satan, now is a good time to ask Bible question #12. What does the Bible say is the test for the antichrist? Let's turn to 1st John 4:3. A 'modern' version says: "and every spirit which does not confess Jesus is not of God. This is the spirit of antichrist, of which you heard that it was coming, and now it is in the world already." Again, in 'modern' versions, key pieces of scripture are left out. Compare this same verse with the FULL reading in the King James. In the KJ it says: "And every spirit that confesseth not that JESUS CHRIST IS COME IN THE FLESH is not of God: and this is that [spirit] of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world." Remember, evil spirits did confess Jesus. In Luke 4:34 (and in Mark 1:24) a man having a "spirit of an unclean devil" said to Jesus: "... Let [us] alone; what have we to do with thee, [thou] JESUS of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I KNOW THEE who thou art; the Holy One of God." Contrary to what 'modern' versions would tell you, the antichrist DOES KNOW who Jesus is. But, what the antichrist CAN NOT say is: "JESUS CHRIST IS COME IN THE FLESH". Modern versions not only need to get their gospel straight, they also need to correctly quote the true test for the antichrist. Also, take a look at this: Compare 1st John 4:3 again between a 'modern' version and the King James Bible. Please look one more time at what the 'new' version says: "... which does not confess Jesus is ..." But, the King James says: "... that confesseth not that Jesus CHRIST is ..." Besides the doctrinal error, 'modern' versions continually assault the Lordship and Deity of Jesus Christ. If the King James says: "Jesus Christ", many times modern versions will only say: "Jesus". If the King James says: "Lord Jesus Christ", many times modern versions will only say: "Lord" or will only say: "Jesus".

[@a.d.marshall2748]

The "bibles" publishers own are all altered significantly enough to be copyrighted as a new and original work. Not one of them is God's word. It's literal blasphemy to call any of them holy. God's word says that anything added will add every plague of the Bible to them and that anything removed will remove them from the book of life. Believe God or not, that's what God said. And that is why the translators of the King James Bible took seven years to thoroughly examine and peer review every single word. Because they were men who feared God. They weren't proud fools who hate God's people like James White the tattooed drunk, or Westcott and Hort, the Mary worshipping witches, or Virginia Mollencott the feminist sodomite, or the many devilish lost Jesuits who have been involved with every modern perversion.

[@1611AuthorizedVersion]

Bible Question #13: In the wilderness, when Satan tempted Jesus to turn a stone into bread for food, what was Jesus' response? Please turn to Luke 4:4. In a 'modern' version it reads: "... man shall not live by bread alone." Well, that's true and that's part of it. But, what about the rest of the verse? Notice: words have been LEFT OUT in these 'modern versions'. The Authorized (King James) Bible has the correct and full reading. In Luke 4:4 it says: "... man shall not live by bread alone, BUT BY EVERY WORD OF GOD." The fact that we are nourished by bread is true, but that is only part of the story. Our lives are sustained by the word of God. We need bread to sustain our bodies, but these 'modern' versions leave out our need for the life sustaining word of God. Bible Question #14: Whom does Jesus say has "everlasting life"? For the answer, open your Bible to John 6:47. In a 'modern version' it says something like: "... he who believes has eternal life ..." Notice how that does not make much sense. The verse does not have enough information. Compare this to the King James. In it Jesus is quoted as saying: "... He that believeth ON ME hath everlasting life." Everyone who believes DOES NOT have everlasting life, only those who believe ON JESUS. In John 6:47 the two words "ON ME" are vital. Jesus Christ is the rock of our salvation. We must believe ON HIM to have everlasting life. Again, key Christian doctrine is missing. How can missing information be a 'better', 'improved', translation? Bible Question #15: Who slew Goliath? This is an easy one! Now turn to 2nd Samuel 21:19. Depending on the 'modern version' it will say something like: "... Elhanan ... killed Goliath ..." What do you mean Elhanan killed Goliath!? This is wrong you say. Most Sunday school children know that DAVID slew Goliath! Well, you're right! This is clearly in error. Look at the same passage in your King James Bible. The Authorized King James Bible has the correct reading which is: "... Elhanan ... slew [THE BROTHER OF] Goliath ..." Spiritually, as Christians, we are the equivalent of David. Spiritually, Satan is the equivalent of Goliath. Just as David slew Goliath (with a rock), we Christians are "more than conquerors" as we have overcome (slew) Satan by the blood of the lamb (Jesus Christ, the rock!) and by the word of our testimony. Not only are 'modern versions' in error, but major doctrinal issues are involved here. Think about it. Bible Question #16: Jesus said that our heavenly Father will forgive us of our sins. However, we are told that, likewise, there is something we must do. Do you remember what it is? Let's turn, in a 'modern version', to Mark 11:26. Are you not able to find it? Are the verses in Mark chapter 11 numbered 23, 24, 25 and then 27!? Is verse 26 missing? Well, there is nothing wrong with your eyesight! Verse 26 is not there (or it is in brackets, casting doubt on it). It's ANOTHER omission. Now, turn to the same verse in your Authorized (King James) Bible. The KJ says: "BUT IF YE DO NOT FORGIVE, NEITHER WILL YOUR FATHER WHICH IS IN HEAVEN FORGIVE YOUR TRESPASSES." Oh man! This is important! Leaving out verse 26 leaves out an important piece of Christian doctrine. Verse 26 needs to be there! And, that's why it is properly included in your King James Bible. Bible Question #17: What did Jesus say about religious hypocrisy? First, let's take a look in a 'modern' version of the Bible. What does it say in Matthew 23:14? Actually, it says nothing! (The verse is missing in many modern versions). For the word of God turn to the same verse in your King James Bible. What does it say? "WOE UNTO YOU, SCRIBES AND PHARISEES, HYPOCRITES! FOR YE DEVOUR WIDOWS' HOUSES, AND FOR A PRETENCE MAKE LONG PRAYER: THEREFORE YE SHALL RECEIVE THE GREATER DAMNATION." Jesus does NOT like hypocrisy. Notice how God KNOWS our heart! Bible Question #18: What did Jesus say we are to do relative to each other? For the answer see: James 5:16 Many 'modern' versions say something similar to: "... confess your sins to one another ..." (Notice this could lead to gossip and further sinning). But the King James says: "Confess [your] FAULTS one to another, ..." Notice the two different words: sins and faults. The Bible says ONLY God can forgive sins. So, we are supposed to confess our SINS to him. But, we should confess our FAULTS to one another. Faults and sins are entirely different. Can you see how 'modern' versions have led Catholics astray? And, if it has led Catholics astray, couldn't the same thing happen to us if we, our spouse, our children, or our pastor, uses a 'modern' version? Bible Question #19: Do modern 'versions' of the Bible have any other problems? Unfortunately, the answer is yes. In the Bible, the New Testament sometimes re-quotes the Old Testament. An example of this is in Mark 1:2. Compare the two Bibles again. In a 'new version' it says: "As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, ..." Compare this to the King James, it says: "As it is written IN THE PROPHETS, ..." Comment: The scripture quoted in Mark 1:2 DID NOT come from Isaiah as stated in these 'modern' versions of the Bible. The scripture quoted is from MALACHI 3:1! Check it out. Not only do 'modern' versions misquote God, they even misquote themselves! The KJ reading of: "As it is written IN THE PROPHETS, ..." is correct because the verse is from Malachi 3:1, and Malachi was a prophet! So far we have seen all kinds of problems in 'new', 'modern', 'more easily readable', 'more up to date', etc. etc. versions of the Bible. This leads to the last Bible question: Bible Question #20: Why is it important to have the true word of God (vs. a corruption). The answer to our question is found in 1st Peter 2:2. Please turn there now. In a 'modern version' it says: "... long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up to salvation;" The King James Bible tells us to: "... desire the SINCERE milk OF THE WORD, that ye may GROW thereby:" My comment is that this verse, in 'new', 'modern', versions contains two problems. First: We are to desire the sincere milk OF THE WORD. The purpose is "to grow thereby". Modern versions leave out "OF THE WORD". It's God's word that feeds us. If, like the 'modern' verse, we leave out "the word" how can we grow? Or, if we get a corrupted translation, how can we grow on 'junk food'? Second: Contrary to 'modern' versions, we DO NOT grow up TO SALVATION. That says salvation is by works! We are saved by GRACE, and not of works, lest any man should boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9) Something to think about.

I get what you say , but the oldest English translations are way better to understand and are done very well. The versions should be considered some groups understanding of the Holy Bible , and not the Bible itself. Versions create Confusion to the very core . 1. Snake is never used in all scripture . But serpent , serpent seed , stiff neck adder nation, generation of vipers , fiery serpent, ...... but never the word , snake. Why ? Because the serpent was a ruler / Beast of the field . A kind of man that is serpent like . 2. The wore human is not used in all of scripture for a very good reason . Man can refer to a heavenly man , man ; thatvis of a angel, earthy man , man ; male and female called Adam, man of God, man with ore without flesh , a figure of a man , ..... but never the word Human. Lest you read the latest versions of some scholars who thing they know it all . Stick to the oldest translations !!!!! Keep them Bibles save and preserve it well. Their is coming a time they will try and destroy any old books to fit their own ways. Just like history repeats itself in different manners

[@1611AuthorizedVersion]

Bible Question #1: Who was it that saved Shadrach, Messach and Abednego from the fiery furnace? Please turn to Daniel 3:25. In this verse, Shadrach, Messach and Abednego have been thrown into the fiery furnace. However, they are NOT alone! Another one (a fourth) is there to deliver them! Let's start off by looking at this verse in a 'modern version'. (Notice: the wording in each 'modern version' will differ slightly from all the others. But those small differences will not materially affect this report). Suffice it to say that, at the end of Daniel 3:25, a 'modern' version has a reading "similar to" the following: "... and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods..." "A" son of the (plural) gods?! Who is that? What is his name? Notice how that reading is very vague and "non-descript". But, look at this same verse in your King James Bible. The Authorized (KJ) Bible says: "... and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God." i.e. Jesus Christ. It was JESUS CHRIST, THE only begotten Son of God, who delivered Shadrach, Messach and Abednego. Jesus saved them from the fiery furnace, and it's Jesus who will save you and me from the fiery furnace (i.e. from hell, from the lake of fire)! The Bible is clear. There is ONLY ONE SAVIOUR: The LORD Jesus Christ, THE Son (capital S) of God (big G). Jesus is the ONLY ONE who saves from the fiery furnace, NOT "a" son of the (plural) gods (little g). Jesus saved in the past, he does today, and he will save in the future! Amen ? Bible Question #2: Who was Jesus' father? The answer, of course, is that God was Jesus' father. Let's look in a 'modern' version of the Bible, at Luke 2:33. Starting in Luke 2:27 Simeon has gone into the temple to see the baby Jesus (who is with Joseph and Mary). Again, depending on the particular 'modern' version, in verse 33, it will say something similar to: " ... and his FATHER and mother were amazed at the things which were spoken of him" [i.e. of Jesus]. What do you mean "... and his father ..." was amazed at the things which were spoken of him?! Jesus' father was NOT Joseph! Jesus' father was GOD! Now, let's look in the Authorized King James Bible. The KJ has the correct reading in Luke 2:33. It says: "And JOSEPH and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him." For a 'modern' version (NIV, NASV, RSV etc.) to say Joseph was Jesus' father is blasphemy! Think about the doctrinal implications: If Jesus had only an earthly father and mother, then he is just any man. If he is just any man, then we are still in our sins. If we are still in our sins, then we are not saved! If we are not saved, then we have a big problem! Bible Question #3: What was Jesus' purpose in coming to earth? Please turn to Matthew 18:11. You may have a hard time finding this verse. In many new, 'modern', versions this verse is missing! The verses are numbered 10 then 12,13, 14! Or, you may find verse 11 in brackets, casting doubt as to whether it is scriptural. Let's see what the Authorized King James says: "For the Son of man is come TO SAVE THAT WHICH WAS LOST." This one verse, which summarizes Jesus' ENTIRE MISSION to earth, is either ignored in 'new' versions, or it is put in brackets casting doubt on it! This verse contains a KEY piece of Christian doctrine. People have to know they are lost, i.e. that they have a problem, to know they need a saviour. Bible Question #4: Noah was a great man used by God to build the Ark. To be called for such a task required Noah to be approved by the Lord, God. So, how was Noah 'justified' before God? Was Noah's justification by his own works? For the answer, turn in your Bible to Genesis 6:8. In a 'modern version' it says something like: "Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord." Now think what the word favor implies. Favor implies that Noah was 'better' than others. Favor implies Noah was approved by God because of his own 'good works'. Now compare that to the King James. It says: "But Noah found GRACE in the eyes of the Lord." Even though Noah was used of God, he was also in need of grace (just like all of us)! Noah was NOT justified by his good works, but by God's GRACE. Also, look at verse 9: It says Noah walked with God. Notice that Noah's walk with God occurs, in verse 9, AFTER Noah received grace from God, in verse 8. Grace precedes our walk with God. We are NOT justified (NOR saved) by our own works. Remember, Noah got drunk (at least on one occasion) (Gen 9:21). He was in need of God's amazing grace. We are, too. The consistent theme of the Bible is that we are saved by God's grace and NOT by our own works. Grace and favor have two totally different meanings. The Authorized King James Bible is consistent with the Bible's teachings. These 'modern versions' are not. Bible Question #5: Why did Jesus Christ go to the cross? Let's look at 2 verses. Please turn to 1st Peter 4:1. In a 'modern' version it says: "... Christ suffered ..." In your Authorized King James Bible the full reading is quoted as: "... Christ hath suffered FOR US ..." Notice the last two words give the FULL meaning. Leaving out "for us" misses the point entirely! This is confirmed again in 1st Corinthians 5:7b. In many 'new' versions it says: "For Christ, our Passover, has been sacrificed." Again, the full reading is found in the King James Bible. It says: "For even Christ our passover is sacrificed FOR US:" Bible Question #6: How did Jesus' going to the cross bring our redemption? A 'modern' version will NOT tell you how! (in Colossians 1:14). It says (of Jesus): "in whom we have redemption ..." The full Christian doctrine is only included in the King James reading of the same verse. Properly stated, it says (of Jesus): "In whom we have redemption THROUGH HIS BLOOD, ..." Without the shedding of blood there is NO remission of sins. Leaving out "the blood" misses a key point of doctrine (and leaves us in our sins). Bible Question #7: Who does Jesus "call" and what does he "call" them to do? The questions are getting harder! Open a 'modern' version to Matthew 9:13b. It says something like: "For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners". Notice how the end of this verse begs the question: "... call the righteous, but sinners TO WHAT?" Turn to the same verse in the King James Bible: "... for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners TO REPENTANCE." Those last 2 words are crucial! Hell (and then the lake of fire) will get all the sinners who DON'T repent. Jesus will get all the sinners who DO repent. There is a big difference in those two eternal outcomes. And, there is a big difference in those two translations. We are all sinners and we must all repent to be saved.

Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do. 1 Tim 1:4 (KJV) To “rightly divide (separate) the word of truth” you must separate fact from fable, truth from tale, and principle from parable. @0:30 Deut 4:2 (KJV) and Rev 22:18-19 (KJV) tell us there can be only one preserved Word of God. And yet version after version is spewed out to deceive. There is not a power that is not given by God. Through providence God raised up the most powerful nation there ever was or will be, the U.S.A., and in its infancy it was given the preserved word of God; “Robert Aitken, a Philadelphia printer, was the first to publish the first American edition of the K.J.V. New Testament in 1781 and the K.J.V. Old Testament in 1782, omitting the Apocrypha. On completion, he petitioned and received from the Congress of the Confederation, an official endorsement that Aitken added to the binding of his Bibles, to assure colonists that they were buying a non-royalist edition: “Resolved, that the United States in Congress assembled… recommend this edition of the Bible to the inhabitants of the United States and hereby authorize him to publish this recommendation.” As a result, the Aitken Bible (KJV) is often referred to as “The Bible (KJV) of the Revolution.” The nation was given the KJV, not the dead sea scrolls, not the book of Enoch, not Hebrew books etc. but only the KJV. If God wanted us to understand his word in Hebrew he would have raised this nation up speaking Hebrew. Back in the 1600’s God saw to it that the certain scriptures were translated into English “KJ Bible” and was put into print so that all could read for themselves the truth that in in the scriptures. God did this because he knew that he would bring about this powerful nation [U.S.A. and the English language] of ours to lead the world. The scriptures were written by apostles and prophets inspired by God through the Holy Ghost. The compilation and translation to English was also done by the direction of God through the Holy Ghost and he did not make any mistakes, i.e., the fourth horse being “pale” was no mistake, the horse is not green. In Greek mythology, the name Chloris (Khloris Χλωρίς, from khloros χλωρός, meaning “greenish-yellow,” “pale green,” “pale,” “pallid” or “fresh”) appears… Pallid 1. pale; faint or deficient in color; wan: a pallid countenance. People say that they believe that scripture was written by the direction of God and the Holy Ghost, which is true. But what you people don’t seem to realize is that the compilation and translation of the bible (KJV) was also done by the direction of God and the Holy Ghost. If the bible (KJV) was written and compiled by men of opinion and perspective and translated by incompetent translators then you might as well throw it in the trash. The prophets were told what to write and how to write it, 2 Peter 1:20-21 (KJV) The nation was given the symbol of the Eagle, 37 … Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together. Luke 17:37 (KJV), the body being the Church, the body of Christ. The nation has the motto and preamble “in God we trust” and “one nation under God”. This greatest and most powerful nation the U.S.A., has been given the last and best chance to lead the world to heaven on earth or destruction. But like all other nations of power before it (symbolic Israels, Rev 11:8 (KJV)) the U.S. has chosen destruction and is now the great “liar” saying “in God we trust” and “one nation under God”, it is now the conglomerate of the dragon, beast, false prophet, and harlot, it is Satan loosed from the pit, 7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, 8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth Rev 20:7-8 (KJV). And yet no one seems to know of or speak of a very clear fulfillment of prophecy in our recent history. We (U.S.A.) are the ones who brought down fire from heaven in Aug. of 1945 and we are the ones that gave life to the image of the beast in May of 1948. Rev.13:13-15 (KJV). All glory to God. Amen

Study to show thyself approved of God, a workman who need not be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15.... Charles Spurgeon said: " Dig into scripture as a miner digging for gold " There will be times that you will pick up scripture and read it but each of us needs to sit down in a quiet place and study the word of God seeking Him and Christ in that scripture truth to confirm what we gain in our relationship in Christ to the Father. John 17:3. Does one need to know Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek? The original languages of scripture! In order to rightly divide scripture it sure does help. Rightly Divide - Greek word " Orthotomēo- meaning to disect perfectly only to line oneself up perfectly in the word of God. John 17:3 Jesus Himself praying to His Father this truth: " This is eternal life, that they may know You the only true God and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. "...... "KNOW" here is the Greek word Ginosko meaning to gain knowledge in an ever deepening relationship with God through Christ coupled with the confirming knowledge gained from scripture truth. Always Both/And never Either/Or. This is Christ's own description of what eternal life looks like in every given soul, a bit important to know this as best we can..... I think!

The Douay-Rheims Bible, translated for English-speaking Catholics between 1582 and 1609; revised 1749-1752; what you find today is the 1899 edition used mainly in the US. It is translated from the Latin Vulgate, not the Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek. It reads very much like the KJV in style.

A book cannot save you. Only Jesus can. How about studying him? Is this not what he ask us to be, his disciples (pupils, students?)

[@VikingMan44]

Why do you need to study the Bible if you have the author living inside you? Jesus rebuked the Pharisees for their scholarly study of the writings of dead men. Why would Jesus respond to you differently?

[@jacobtack2258]

Very bad idea. First of all, church doctrine is NOT divine. It is a lie straight from hell. Purely because you ignore the commandments which is found in the Bible. How can the church theology be divine, if it ignores the teaching of our Messiah Yahsuha? 2Jn 1:9 Everyone who is transgressing and not staying in the teaching of Messiah does not possess Elohim. The one who stays in the teaching of Messiah possesses both the Father and the Son.

There's no basis for your claims and your claims would be 1500+ years of Christians are all damned and only the savior Martin Luther (who took out books of the bible and wanted to remove a bunch of new testament books) revived Christianity.

Study Jesus, not the Bible. Jesus is the one God says to listen to. (Luke 9:35) We are NOT to be students (disciples) of a book, but disciples (students) of Christ. That so many ar fixated on a book, that is why there is so much confusion and stumbling. Much of what is written in the Bible is at odds with what Jesus taught. Just read what Jesus himself says what was said long ago as opposed to "what I now say." (Matt 5:21-48) For example, Jesus says at Matt 5:27-28, "You have heard that it WAS SAID, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’" BUT I TELL YOU that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart."

The OT has yet to be translated. The little- but significant- parts Kamal Salibi has tells a different ‘story.’ So,no. Start at start. “The Bible Came from Arabia “, 1985 plus his 3 other bible study books.
