Please Do Not Miss the True Authorship of The Bible.


All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:” 2 Timothy 3:16

We live in a time when people believe they have the authority to believe, and act as they please, and however this is not true. They also believe that “if they do not like something, they can just change it to their liking”. And this is also not true, but people can be as heathenistic as they choose, they can change laws and rules to fit their lifestyle and their hearts desires. However, the one single document that cannot be changed is the bible, IT IS GODS HOLY SCRIPT and it cannot be altered. While it is true that many versions of the bible exist today, all are not God’s Holy Script. People must be careful when comparing their version of the bible to the to God’s words. Chances are if your version was produced after 1700ad it is not an authentic version of God’s word and has been altered. My personal reference is the King James Version because I believe it is the most accurate version. It was translated into the English language for King James I of England and this translation took 7 years from 1604 – 1611 by 47 translators who carefully used every effort to translate and many of the translators were skilled in both Hebrew and Greek.  The King James Version translation effort was based primarily on the Bishops Bible, but the translators also used the Tyndale, Coverdale, and Geneva Bibles, and if you study very carefully you can trace their accuracy back to the original text as far as history can tell, using the “Textus Receptus” making it the most accurate English version of God’s Holy Script. When we are dealing with the bible, we must be careful and not to allow other translations to alter the original text. God said “All scripture is given by inspiration of God…” meaning it is unchangeable in any form. God gave these people who originally wrote these words the exact words to write and they wrote exactly as the Holy Spirit inspired them. Paul wrote to the church at Corinth these words, “Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God…Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.”  1 Corinthians 2:12 - 13 Christians must separate the words of men’s wisdom from the wisdom of the Holy Spirit if they are going to study the things of God. The original text was completed before 100ad and it is the original word of God. There is no evidence that God ever altered His original text after John completed the book of Revelations around 90ad. The bible does not nor can be changed or altered in any fashion, and if it is it is no longer God’s Holy Script but mans unholy script. Therefore, I rely on the King James Version as the closest to the original text in the English language, no matter what. When Gods word is altered it is not God altering it, because God cannot or ever will change, in thought or fact. “For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.”  Malachi 3:6 If the bible has changed then it is man who changed it and not God, and changing God’s word is always “error”, “Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever.” Amen.  Romans 1:25 Whatever God said before 100ad it is still Gods laws and facts, whatever any person thinks or says. Just because the bible does not please you, does not mean it is wrong, just because the bible condemns you does not mean it is wrong, nor are you allowed to alter it for your happiness. Changing truth is making it a lie because truth does not change, ever! The bible was written as a book of instruction in life and it should be followed not changed. God said it “… is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:” not to please the world but a guide for the saved sinner. People who change Gods word will pay account for their sins. I would never trust any person to alter God’s word in any form, LEAVE IT AS IS God does not make mistakes and He is never wrong.
