It's depressing to see how apostate many "Christians" have gotten when the mainstream NIV does more to attack the Godhead, than the more obvious NWT bible. A bible coming from a known cult as the Jehovah (false) Witnesses! This so sad I almost feel like weeping. 
Thanks the LORD God for the King James Bible. |
Brother, follow the links I am going to give Tim, boaz212, for a shocking heads up on the NIV. While I am thinking about it:
http://www.seekgod.ca/chart.htm
http://www.christsassembly.com/liter...sion_bible.htm
http://www.jesus-is-lord.com/nivdelet.htm
The third one is one you will find most interesting with regards the NIV, but Christassembly above has a whole link section devoted to the NIV and others.
The NWT "translators" cherry-picked much of their readings. They relied on the two English translations of "The Emphatic Diaglott" NT of the 1800s and I think a second in the 1940s. I have both. What the NWT did do to a tiny, atomic degree is it is just consistent enough over the NIV that you can demonstrate, from a NWT, what many call "the five fundamentals".
Thank God for the KJV? Let's look at the "Christianity Today" wing of fellowship we have in America:
One Lord
One faith
One baptism
One God and Father of all
One body
One Spirit
One Saviour
One payment for sins
100 versions of the bible in English, and none of them given by inspiration, but "...the 'word' of God is in thar, someplace..."(and you
better have that out-of-print Rotherham's Emhasized or you won't have "all God's words").
I hope to visit your hometown someday Rolando, we'll hit "Bethel" and tract every car in the parking lots. And it's just as protected by law as their right to bother us while we shave.
Grace and peace to you
