I have gained much knowledge through this web-site, it has been very useful.

I started out reading the NIV on JAN ’07 and after serious thought and prayer, I asked the Lord to remove it from my hands if it wasn’t his Word (I had already read through the entire NIV once). This was before I read anything about the KJVO, Wescott/Hort, Manuscripts, etc.

I was about to tread the read-each-version path, but something just didn’t sit well with me (why so many versions!?) I mean, we’re talking about Jesus Christ our Lord and creator of all things, surely he has preserved his Word somewhere.

After being told by someone I met by chance (the Lord did this!) about the deletions and word changes, I immediately thanked the Lord and began to do some research. I was completely shocked and amazed at what was revealed to me!

Since DEC ’07, I have been reading the HOLY BIBLE English language text published in 1611. It’s the oldest most reliable English BIBLE. First, I have faith that God was behind the preservation of this BIBLE. Second, it has much good behind it. Third, guided by the Holy Ghost, it got in my face and gave me CLEAR instruction.

Suddenly, I was equipped with conviction and strength to let go of the worldly things I attempted to mingle with God’s Holy Things.

Man has heavily tampered with God’s Word, making it of non-effect in the minds of many. But God sees all and hears all, his will be done.

Thank you for taking the time to read my introduction and God Bless you!
