Re: Prayer for Truth

There is where our view differs. I see that one only can see things from his/her perspective and that it is very hard (if not impossible) for everyone one to understand the exact same thing of something. You believe the exact opposite. It would be a waste of time trying to convince each other. So lets just lay it to rest.

You will have to stop playing with cubes and start reading the KJV1611 Holy Bible for that.

As I stated in the beginning of this forum i've tried that already a few times. Every time I couldn't hold on to my faith. And reading the KJV1611 Bible doesn't change that.

See, I walk a diffrent path than most people of this forum. All I ask is a prayer and support from my fellow believers.

I thank you.

Love and Peace,

Ciffian

It seems to me you didn't read the entire KJV1611 Holy Bible yet, otherwise you would not be saying that.

You're right, I did not read the KJV1611 Holy Bible. And even if I did, it would not change my perspective. I did read another Bible translation, though. I received the gift troughout my lifetime to see on subject from multiple view points. This gave the option to seek the truth in every viewpoint. Doesn't matter to me if it is from a Atheïst viewpoint or those from a Goth, Christian, Muslim or any other viewpoint. Once agian thats why I request a prayer. A prayer so I one day find the universal truth somewhere hidden within.

As I expected.

How can you know that without trying it!?

Re: Prayer for Truth

How can you know that without trying it!?

Because every version of the bible tells the same story in a diffrent way. I admit that the KJV1611 Bible is a better translation, it is also way harder. But the stories are all the same. I have a Bible here at my home. And when I compare certain sentences, the same conclusions are drawen from them.

And because I already tried this multiple times, I see no use of doing it agian.
Another reason why I walk a diffrent path.

So you admit to no reading the KJV1611 Holy Bible yet at the same time you draw conclusions about its content. Why not stop being ignorant and start actually reading it?

Because I didn't read it, doesn't mean I don't know anything about its content. Just as I said in my previous post, all translations of the bible are telling the story is there own way. But in the end, it all comes to the same point. So no, I am not going to read it.

So don't even bother calling me ignorant.

NIV BIBLE TEST It has been said by many that the NIV is the most readable and accurate Bible on the market today and that it is based on older and more reliable manuscripts than the King James Bible.

ANSWERS TO THE NIV TEST

As you probably noted there was little space provided for your answers. I think now you see why because if you took the test properly your score was a big goose egg.
However, if you would like to improve your score, and in fact score 100%, you can take this test using the Authorized (King James) Bible."


"

NIV Reader: Do you have enough confidence in the NIV to...
tell God, OUT LOUD,
that the NIV is correct in deleting these words and phrases?
If not, you need to get a King James Bible
so you can have some confidence.

Dear Reader, please do not write asking me for information on Mr. Cobb, I do not have any. The test is straightforward. I have a cursed NIV (for reference purposes) and I have verified all the above blanks are missing in my copy of the NIV corruption. For other dangers of the NIV and modern Bibles, please go to our Bible page. For some specific verses that the NIV ENTIRELY DELETES, go to, Which verses did the NIV delete?. Please read, The NIV Perversion."


<b> By the way NIV actually has two other meanings (Nothing in-it Version) and (Non Inspired Version) and that's all it is, A "version" it's not the Infallible, inerrant, inspired Word of God, That scoffers and mockers would have you to believe, But instead its just Prophecies being fulfilled as it says in

2 Timothy 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
2 Timothy 4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

Friends that's exactly where we are today seeing the Promises of God being fulfilled before our very eyes, And yet man thinks he knows best and is so far above God that he can do anything he pleases without consequences But to that man there is a "PayDay" Some day and that day is closer than you might think. Repent in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and be Born Again for the Kingdom of God is Nigh at Hand.


Take this quiz.... and see if you can answer the questions truthfully... using a NIV bible.. then compare it using a KJV this test made me sure that the KJV was the true bible.. In Revelation it says do not delete or add unto the bible, I realized with this test and the website that the NIV and others are bad... some examples...in the KJV the word lucifer is found only once in the following verse :
Isaiah 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
So we know that in the NIV the "morning star" is a negative, evil figure. Right? He was fallen from heaven. He was cast down to the earth. Can we find the "morning star" anywhere else in the NIV? Yes! The following passages in the NIV show the "morning star" as Jesus Christ! But the NIV just called the fallen creature of Isaiah 14:12 "morning star". Lucifer AND Jesus are ONE in the NIV! Lord have mercy, Jesus! Help me, Lord.
NIV: Revelation 22:16,
"I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you [1] this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star."

there are others also... Like the NIV deletes 1John 5:7 which is one of the greatest verses in the KJV it says :

For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. (1 John 5:7)

thats the basis on most people with the Trinity... if ya notice the JW bible and NIV bible delete the same verses and are almost exact match, the JW bible doesnt have this verse because they dont believe in the trinity...

Theres alot more but not enough room to type..

So now what do you think of this "accurate, easy-to-understand, up-to-date Bible"? If these 25 questions haven't served to show you that the NIV is a very inferior Bible, based on a very inferior Greek text, write me and I'll make up another quiz with 25 more questions, or 250, if you wish; but you will still flunk the test. If you would like to improve your score, and in fact score 100%, you can take this test using the Authorized (King James) Bible.

Re: Prayer for Truth

Oh really? Then please, why don't you take an NIV Bible and do this test?

I doesn't change anything. As I told before every bible tells the same story diffrent. For example:

Matthew 5:44 New King James version

"But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you"

This phrase for example, let us take a look at diffrent translations.

Matthew 5:44 Wordwide Translation

But I tell you, love your enemies. Ask God to do good to those who trouble you"

Matthew 5:44 Wordwide Translation

(43-47)
You're familiar with the old written law, 'Love your friend,' and its unwritten companion, 'Hate your enemy.' I'm challenging that. I'm telling you to love your enemies. Let them bring out the best in you, not the worst. When someone gives you a hard time, respond with the energies of prayer, for then you are working out of your true selves, your God-created selves. This is what God does. He gives his best—the sun to warm and the rain to nourish—to everyone, regardless: the good and bad, the nice and nasty. If all you do is love the lovable, do you expect a bonus? Anybody can do that. If you simply say hello to those who greet you, do you expect a medal? Any run-of-the-mill sinner does that.

They all tell us to love our enemies, yet they all differ with the explanation. And take a look in the tekst itself. "Love those who are thy enemies." That is something I miss here and there on this forum.

Love and Peace,

Then you are not paying attention. We love everyone with True Christian(tm) love and do everything to prevent them from going to hell.
