The preceding text Bible verse has been corrupted in every modern Bible version. See for yourself:
KING JAMES BIBLE — 2nd Corinthians 2:17, “For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.” [emphasis added]Biblica (formerly the International Bible Society) and Zondervan sell Bibles to make money! So according to their own corrupt translations, they are doing evil by selling the Scriptures! Honestly, is it a sin to sell Bibles? No, it is a sin to CORRUPT the inspired Word of God, as the King James Bible accurately warns.
NEW INTERNATIONAL READER'S VERSION (NIRV) — 2nd Corinthians 2:17, “Unlike many people, we aren’t selling God’s word to make money. In fact, it is just the opposite. Because of Christ we speak honestly before God. We speak like people God has sent.”
NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION (NIV) - 2nd Corinthians 2:17, “Unlike so many, we do not peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity, as those sent from God.”
The following comparison between different Bible versions speaks 1,000 words, which should silence honest critics. ...
A sincere man on Facebook critiqued me recently, saying that we should be focused on winning souls and not bickering over which Bible to use; but that is the whole point I kindly told him, because the Devil's modern Bible revisions change and pervert the meaning of "repent" (and in so doing change and corrupt God's simple plan of salvation). Jesus Christ came into the world to die on a cross to pay our debt of sin (Romans 5:6-9; 2nd Corinthians 5:21), He doesn't demand that we forsake our sinful bad habits as a prerequisite to receiving God's free gift of forgiveness of those sins.
Yet, tragically, in nearly every church today (sadly this includes so-called “independent fundamental Baptist” churches), we hear the pastor foolishly teaching that you cannot go to Heaven unless you repent “of your sins” or “turn from your sins” (phrases nowhere found in the Holy Bible). This is a counterfeit plan of salvation, which does not match what the King James Bible teaches. I encourage you dear reader to read Michael P. Bowen's helpful book titled: 'I NEVER KNEW YOU' in defense of the true Gospel. It is one of my favorite books.
The ugly blatant truth friend is that Satan has corrupted today's Bible revisions to hinder people from being born-again. Satan's greatest weapon in his arsenal is to con people into living the Christian life without ever being born again. For example:
KING JAMES BIBLE (KJB) — Mark 1:15, “And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐๐ฒ, and believe the gospel.” [emphasis added]
EASY-TO-READ VERSION (ERV) — Mark 1:15, “He said, “The right time is now here. God’s kingdom is very near. ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ป๐ด๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ต๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐น๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐, and believe the Good News!” [emphasis added]
Is that how we get saved, by changing our hearts and lives? No, it is not.
Here's another example, this time from the New Life Version (NLV):
KING JAMES BIBLE (KJB) - Mark 1:15, “And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐๐ฒ, and believe the gospel.”
NEW LIFE VERSION (NLV) - Mark 1:15, “He said, 'The time has come. The holy nation of God is near. ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฟ๐ ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐๐ถ๐ป๐, ๐๐๐ฟ๐ป ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ผ๐บ ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐บ, and believe the Good News.'”
Does a lost sinner have to be sorry (an emotion) for sins, and turn from them, to get to Heaven? No, you won't find that nonsense in an inspired King James Bible. Feeling sorry for sin is penitence, not repentance. Making a mend for sin is penance, not repentance. Changing one's behavior is reformation, not Bible repentance.
Here's another comparison:
KING JAMES BIBLE (KJB) — Hebrews 6:1, “Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ฎ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ผ๐บ ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ธ๐, and of faith toward God.” [emphasis added]
EASY-TO-READ VERSION (ERV) — “So we should be finished with the beginning lessons about Christ. We should not have to keep going back to where we started. We began our new life ๐ฏ๐ ๐๐๐ฟ๐ป๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฎ๐๐ฎ๐ ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ผ๐บ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐น ๐๐ฒ ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ฑ ๐ถ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐๐ and by believing in God.” [emphasis added]
If I had my way, the people responsible for this butchery of God's Word would be behind bars in prison for a long time, and also every pastor who corrupts people's minds with these trashy perverted translations. RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!! No honest person can claim that it just doesn't matter which Bible we use. Argue as many still may, the following comparison charts (as well as the comparisons I have just shown you), should settle the matter for any honest observer.
Has Your Bible Been Tampered With?
