Right there on the first page: "..most excellent Porphyry" what a joke!
So I looked up Luke 1:3 to see which heretical version they were using
HERE and
HERE.
Next I searched the eniire King James Bible for Porphyries. Nothing. The search result may be confirmed
HERE.
I don't think I'll be reading very much of this stuff. Try this for an "error"

Christians have added chapter designations to the Bible which were not used by the original authors.

So what? Many editions of The Bible are available without verse divisions, although chapters are usually indicated so that it's easy to look up a reference which is exactly and obviously why they were provided in the first place. This is so lame I can't even be bothered to think up a parallel example based on my sewing machine..

John 1: (KJV)
1 “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”
As we have seen [no we haven't, the Greek text was not provided and it does not have the words in that order anyway -ML], a better translation for the ending is “the Word was a god.” The question is how is the author using “God/god” here, as a title or as an adjective? If as a title, then “God” could be capitalized. If as an adjective (divine) then “god” should not be capitalized. There is a Greek word for “divine” (adjective) which the author does not use here but the author never uses this word in the entire Gospel. Later in this Gospel there are several instances, such as John 10:33, where the context indicates that the author is likely using “god” as an adjective rather than a title, so it would appear that the adjective “divine” was not in the author’s vocabulary and that “God/god” should be translated as either title or adjective based on context. Based on the context here, the word could be a title (God) or adjective (divine) but every Christian translation I’ve seen uses the title “God” with no discussion.

So the argument here seems to be that the word the author would have used and in fact intended to use was not used because of a limited vocabulary. The correct word is therefore any word you like, just say that's what John intended but didn't write due to not knowing the word. This is good stuff right here. It can't get any better than this for entertainment value so I'll stop reading now.
Unfortunately the maniacs responsible for braying these "errors" are hellbound fools who, upon their arrival, will discover just how far manias can go in the fullness of time when they meet their true master. Satan. It doesn't get mania than that.
