Well, mind blown. Again. Seems like every time I set foot in church, I learn something new. What I learned today is so amazing, I'm going to actually transcribe some notes Pastor Jimenez gave us today. The sermon is in regards to how different versions of the Bible are propagating the Anti-Christ's New World Order. We all know there's about 7 different versions of the Bible other than King James. They've all been put out there to make it more "simple" to understand the Word of God. I admit ... I have one of those versions. I have the New King James Version, which I thought simply removed all the "doth", "thee", and "whilst" and made it a little easier to understand what God is trying to say. Needless to say, I will be investing in a new bible.
1. 1Timothy 3:16
*KJV: And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
*New American Standard Bible (NASB): By common confession, great is the mystery of godliness: He who was revealed in the flesh, was vindicated in the Spirit, Seen by angels, Proclaimed among the nations, Believed on in the world, Taken up in glory.
*New International Version (NIV): Beyond all question, the mystery from which true godliness springs is great: He appeared in the flesh,was vindicated by the Spirit, was seen by angels, was preached among the nations, was believed on in the world, was taken up in glory.
*New Living Translation (NLT): Without question, this is the great mystery of our faith: Christ was revealed in a human body and vindicated by the Spirit. He was seen by angels and announced to the nations. He was believed in throughout the world and taken to heaven in glory.
*English Standard Version (ESV): Great indeed, we confess, is the mystery of godliness: He was manifested in the flesh, vindicated by the Spirit, seen by angels, proclaimed among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.
!What does all this mean? The KJV tells us that GOD was manifest in the flesh. We all know that, right? Jesus is God's fleshly body. These other "more modern" versions are setting us up to believe in the anti-christ, because "He" can be any man. I think I got that right. Pastor explained it better I think, but y'all get the drift;)
2. Luke 2:33
*KJV: And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him.
*NASB: And His father and mother were amazed at the things which were being said about Him.
*NIV: The childs's father and mother marveled at what was said about him.
*NLT: Jesus' parents were amazed at what was being said about him.
*ESV: And his father and his mother marveled at what was said about him.
!What are these passages referring to? Well, the birth of Jesus. We all know that Mary is Jesus' mother, but Joseph is NOT the father of Jesus, GOD is. Mary was a virgin! And Joseph is NOT God. KJV is the only bible that correctly references the relationship of Mary and Joseph to Jesus.
3. John 1:18
*KJV: No man hath seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
*ESV: No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father's side, he has made him known.
!Jesus is God's son, and was seen on earth. God has never been seen on earth, except as Jesus.
4. Matthew 7:14
*KJV: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
*NKJV: Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way, which leads to life, and there are few who find it.
*NLT: But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it.
*ESV: For the gate is narrow and way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.
!This passage is telling you how to get to heaven. Honestly, it is extremely simple to get to heaven. You don't have to repent, you don't have to go to confession, you don't have to live like a monk, you don't have to WORK at it. You simply must BELIEVE that Jesus died on the cross for your sins. The way is NOT difficult, it is easy. But yes, it is straight and narrow. There is only ONE way to get to heaven, and that is through belief in Jesus and God. Satan will have you believe going to heaven is so hard, you shouldn't even try.
5. Mark 10:24
*KJV: And the disciples were astonished at his words. Jut Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!
*NASB: The disciples were amazed at His words. But Jesus *answered again and *said to them, "Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God!
*NIV: The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said again, "Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God!
*NLT: This amazed them. But Jesus said again, "Dear children, it is very hard to enter the kingdom of God.
*ESV: And the disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said to them again, "Children, how difficult it is to enter the kingdom of God!
!The KJV passage refers to the fact that "rich people" have a harder time making it to heaven. God said that money is the root of all evil, and that rich people will have a harder time believing in God and going to heaven. Note how all the alternate bible versions omit the part about "riches". They say that in GENERAL is hard to get to Heaven. That just isn't true. The New World Order will rely on rich and powerful people to help the agenda get going.
1 Corinthians 1:18
*KJV: For the preaching of the cross is to them, that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
*NKJV: For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
*NASB: For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
*NIV: For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
*NLT: The message of the cross is foolish to those who are headed for destruction! But we who are being saved we know it is the very power of God.
*ESV: For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
!If you believe, you ARE saved. You are not saved by WORKS. You are not saved through having to "live right", you are saved by BELIEF in God. If you believe, you ARE saved, not in the process of BEING saved.
John 3:36
*KJV: He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
*NASB: He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.
*NLT: And anyone who believes in God's Son has eternal life. Anyone who doesn't obey the Son will never experience eternal life but remains under God's angry judgement.
*ESV: Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.
!Clear as Lake Tahoe, right? KJV states that if you BELIEVE, you are saved. If you BELIEVE NOT, you shall incur God's wrath. Nowhere in the KJV bible does it state you must obey. You SHOULD obey, you SHOULD live your life as God says to do, but it is not a requirement for you to get to heaven.
Still with me? I've got more!
Colossians 1:14
*KJV: in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
*NASB: in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins
*NIV: in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins
*NLT: who purchased our freedom and forgave our sins.
*ESV: in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins
!Um, it is the BLOOD of Jesus Christ that gives us the promise of everlasting life after our earthly death.
Isaiah 14:12
*KJV: How art thou fallen, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
*NASB: How you have fallen from heaven, O star of the morning, son of the dawn! You have been cut down to the earth, You who have weakened the nations!
*NIV: How you have fallen from heaven, O shining star, son of the morning! You have been thrown down to the earth, you who destroyed the nations of the world.
*ESV: How you are fallen from heaven, O Day Star, son of Dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, you who laid the nations low!
!Wow. Just wow. Lucifer, Satan, is cast out of heaven. The "modified" versions of the bible are blatantly telling you JESUS was cast out of heaven. Jesus is identified in Revelations as the morning star, NOT Satan. Satan is the son of the morning, not the STAR of the morning. Small changes, BIG context change.
Luke 4:8
*KJV: And Jesus answered and said unto him, "Get thee behind me Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worhip the Lord thy god, and him only shalt thou serve".
*NASB: Jesus answered him, "It is written, You shall worship the Lord your God and serve Him only".
*NIV: Jesus answered, "It is written: 'Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.'"
*NLT: Jesus replied, "The Scriptures say, 'You must worship the Lord your God and serve only him.'"
*ESV: And Jesus answered him, "It is written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God and him only shall you serve.'"
!Jesus is telling Satan to go away! Get behind him! YOU (meaning SATAN) will worship the Lord, and only Him. The new versions say nothing about Satan, paving the way for the Anti-christ to step in and proclaim that the masses should worship him as the false prophet.
Hebrews 9:10
*KJV: Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.
*NIV: There are only a matter of food and drink and various ceremonial washings-external regulations applying until the time of the new order.
!Pretty clear, huh?
Acts 8:36-38
*KJV: {36} And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? {37}And Philip said, if thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. {38} And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.
*NIV: {36} As they traveled along the road, they came to some water and the eunuch said, "Look, here is water. What can stand in the way of my being baptized? {37} {38} And he gave orders to stop the chariot. Then both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water and Philip baptized him.
*NLT: {36} As they rode along, they came to some water, and the eunuch said, "Look! There's some water! Why can't I be baptized?" {38} He ordered the carriage to stop, and they went down into the water and Philip baptized him.
*ESV: {36} And as they were going along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, "See, here is water! What prevents me from being baptized? {38} And he commanded the chariot to stop, and they both went into the water, Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him.
!Hello! Notice anything? A missing verse maybe? And the versions even let you KNOW they're leaving it out. This is again telling you that your belief in Jesus being God's son is how you're saved. The AC's agenda is to make it seem hard and difficult to get to heaven so that Satan can have more souls at the end of the Tribulation. Unbelievable.
2 Samuel 21:19
*KJV: And there was a battle in Gob with the Philistines, where Elhanan the son of Jaareoregim, a Bethlehemite, slew the BROTHER of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
*NASB: There was a war with the Philistines again at Gob, and Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's bean.
*ESV: And there was again war with the Philistines at Gob, and Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim the Bethlehemite struck down Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
!Pastor called these passages "dumb". It is common knowledge that David killed Goliath. These "new" translations of the bible are telling you in black and white that this Elhanan, a Bethlehemite, killed Goliath, when in fact the boy killed Goliath's BROTHER. Dumb indeed.
1 Samuel 13:1
*KJV: Saul reigned one year; and when he had reigned 2 years over Isreael,
*ESV: Saul lived for one year and then became king, and when he had reigned for 2 years over Israel,
!Huh? Saul was king as a one year old? Lol.
Mark 1:2,3
*KJV: {2} As it is written in the prophets (quote from Malachi) "Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee". {3} (quote from Isaiah) "The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight."
*NASB: {2} As it is written in Isaiah the prophet: (quote from Malachi) "Behold, I send My messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way;"
*NIV: {2} as it is written in Isaiah the prophet: (quote from Malachi) "I will send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way"
*NLT: {2} just as the prophet Isaiah had written: (quote from Malachi) "Look, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, and he will prepare your way."
*ESV: {2} As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, (quote from Malachi) "Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way",
!What?? The new translations MISQUOTE THE BIBLE! They cite the quotations from Isaiah, but they're actually from Malachi. Kind of a big deal, don't you think? Obviously, these are only a SMALL sample of the vast differences in translations, but I'm certainly convinced. Are you? Things are making SO much sense to me right now, Pastor Jimenez makes it crystal clear what Satan's agenda is, and I for one have no desire to fall prey to Satan and Hell. I want to live my everlasting life in heaven, with my family, and in paradise. I have no desire to live in a literal hell for all of eternity, so I'm making sure to listen and pay attention to what I need to do here on earth. My very first personal purchase I make for myself once our paychecks start coming in will be a KJV bible. I thought my New KJV was harmless, but even it isn't exempt from Anti-christ agendas. Satan is looking to systematically eliminate God from our world ... it's a scary thought that Pastors are using and preaching from these alternate translations of the bible when they're SO CLEARLY changing things around to suit the needs of those looking to lead you down the WRONG path. Food for thought!
