Question #31 -
QUESTION:
I can still find the fundamentals in other bibles. So how can they
be bad?
ANSWER:
Any fundamental found in any version is found purer or
more frequently in the King James Bible thus making the King James
Bible the best of the field.
EXPLANATION: Most
people who claim to be able to find the fundamentals in other
versions forget that the very fundamentals which they claim to be
able to find, were originally taught them from a King James Bible.
Following are just a few doctrines which can be
found in other versions but found in a weaker
state than in the King James Bible. (The versions mentioned are
used as a cross- section of versions available and do not
necessarily include or exclude others.)
1. The deity of Christ is watered down in Acts
3:13,26, 4:27,30 in the New King James Version, the New
International Version and New American Standard Version where
Jesus is called God's "servant" instead of God's
"Son."
2. The doctrine of Hell is watered down in Luke
16:23 in the New King James Version and New American Standard
Version where they transliterate "Hades" instead of
translating it as "Hell."
3. The salvation of the Ethiopian eunuch is
eliminated in the New International Version and New American
Standard Version where Acts 8:37 is removed from the text.
4. The Ascension of Jesus Christ is left out of
Luke 24:51 in a New American Standard Version.
5. The virgin birth of Jesus is denied in the
New International Version and New American Standard Version in
Luke 2:33 where Joseph is called Jesus' father.
6. The doctrine of the Trinity is either
removed or questioned in I John 5:7 where the New American
Standard Version and New International Version remove the verse
and then split verse 6 and manufacture a false verse 7 and in the
New King James Version where a note casts doubt on its
authenticity.
These are just a few
corruptions in the texts of today's modern versions. It is not an
exhaustive list by any means.
It may be stated that such criticism of other
bibles is "nit-picking". But, let it be remembered that,
if you can find a particular doctrine in a modern bible, let's
say, 200 times and you can find the same doctrine
more times in the King James, then the King James
is stronger.
