"For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ." -2nd Corinthians 2:17
Ah yes, the latest garbage from Zondervan Publishers... The New International Readers Version. Oh boy! I am being factious of course. Zondervan is leading the way in butchering the Word of God. Few believers care to know that Zondervan is OWNED by Harper Collins, who also publishes The Satanic Bible and The Joy of Gay Sex. No joke! That's just as hypocritical as the cigarette companies who spend millions of dollars to warn people about the dangers of smoking. It's totally insane! The International Bible Society (IBS) ought to be ashamed of themselves.
"...Who is on the LORD's side?" -Exodus 32:26.
That's the question of the day... WHO IS ON
THE LORD'S SIDE? Zondervan certainly ISN'T on the Lord's side?
Harper Collins ISN'T on the Lord's side. The International Bible
Society ISN'T on the Lord's side. Who is on the Lord's side?
Churches who purchase, quote, and promote the NIV, TNIV, or NIRV are NOT on
the Lord's Side! Are you on the Lord's side?
The NIRV Corrupts John 3:16
Do you think God is pleased with the NIRV, that removes the word "begotten" from John 3:16? ...
"God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son. Anyone who believes in him will not die but will have eternal life." -NIRV
Oh is that so? The NIRV claims that God has
ONLY one Son! But the Apostle John declared in 1st John 3:2, "Beloved,
now are we the sons of God..." (KJB, i.e., King James Bible).
Believers are adopted sons of God! Ephesians 1:5 (KJB) declares... "Having
predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to
himself, according to the good pleasure of his will." So you see,
the word "begotten" is critically important in John 3:16, because God has many
sons but only one BEGOTTEN Son--Jesus Christ. The NIV, TNIV, and NIRV
are all straight from Hell, because they pervert the Words of God.
The NIRV Corrupts Colossians 1:14
We read in the King James Bible... "In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins." Now read what the damnable NIRV says...
"Because of what the Son has done, we have been set free. Because of him, all of our sins have been forgiven." -NIRV
There is a malicious effort today by modernists to rid the pulpits and churches of America of any talk of the BLOOD OF JESUS. Heretic, R.B. Thieme Jr. went as far as to call Bible-believing Christians "blood thirsty." Mr. Popular, John MacArthur is in league with Mr. Thieme, both unsaved men, who teach that Jesus' liquid blood is insignificant. They believes that Jesus' blood is only important in that it SYMBOLIZES the death of Christ, and that Jesus' blood simply soaked into the ground at Calvary. In sharp contrast, Hebrews 9:22,24 (KJB) states... "And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission... For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us." Please read, The Blood Applied. Also, The Importance of the Blood.
John MacArthur has written over 200 books, is
broadcast on radio stations worldwide, and is featured annually at Moody
Founder's Week. What is wrong with today's Christians that they
don't contend for the Biblical faith, and expose these imposters who trample
upon the precious blood of Jesus? Haven't they ever read 1st Peter
1:18-19? ... "Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with
corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received
by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ,
as of a lamb without blemish and without spot." If you have a NIV,
TNIV, or NIRV, rip it into pieces before you throw it away, so there's no
chance of the garbage man being corrupted by it. I'm serious.
There is NO poison as lethal as that of the NIV, TNIV, and NIRV.
The NIRV Corrupts Hebrews 9:22
Hebrews 9:22 in the King James Bible states... "And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission."
Now read what the hellish NIRV says...
"In fact, the law requires that nearly everything be made clean with blood. Without the spilling of blood, no one can be forgiven." -NIRV
Spilling of blood? Spilling implies an
accident. The Greek word for "shedding" in Hebrews 9:22 is
"haimatekchusia" (Enhanced Strong's Lexicon) and means "shedding of
blood." Jesus didn't accidentally spill His blood at Calvary, He
deliberately shed His blood for our sins. From the shed blood of Abel's
lamb in Genesis, to the saints washed in the blood of the Lamb in
Revelation--the Word of God centers around the precious blood of Jesus Christ.
Hebrews 9:7 is proof of this... "But into the second went the high priest
alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself,
and for the errors of the people." The blood had to be applied to
the Mercy Seat in the Holy of Holies.
The NIRV Corrupts 1st Timothy 3:16
1st Timothy 3:16 in the precious King James Bible states, "...God was manifest in the flesh..."
The hell-spawned NIRV butchers it into...
"Jesus appeared in a body."
The deity of Jesus Christ is completely removed.
Buddha appeared in a body, as did Confucius, Hitler, and Elvis. The NIRV
isn't saying anything. The King James Bible holds true to the original
Greek, by faithfully declaring that Jesus came to the earth as God incarnate.
The King James'... "God was manifest in the flesh" says it all.
Zondervan and all their associates are guilty of helping attack the deity of
Jesus Christ.
The NIRV Corrupts Matthew 8:2
If you compare the NIV, TNIV, and NIRV with the KJB, you'll find that every mention of someone "worshipping" Jesus is diminished to a mere "knelt." Matthew 8:2 in the King James Bible states... "And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean."
Now read what the vile NIRV says...
A man who had a skin disease came and got down on his knees in front of Jesus. He said, "Lord, if you are willing to make me 'clean,' you can do it." -NIRV
You see, this is a further attack of Jesus' deity. Anyone can get on their knees before a dignitary, or to beg for mercy; but to WORSHIP someone is entirely different. Also, please notice that Jesus was THE ONLY PERSON in the Bible to willingly receive worship, as only God is entitled to (Isaiah 42:8). Jesus forgave sin, as only God is able to (Mark 2:5-7). Jesus claimed to be God (John 10:33), even the Almighty (Revelation 1:8).
Please read,
Jesus is Precious!
The NIRV Corrupts Philippians 2:6
Oh how wicked are those who pervert and trample upon the Words of God with their ignorance, greed, and indifference! Here is what the King James Bible faithfully conveys in Philippians 2:6 concerning the Lord Jesus Christ... "Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God."
And here is what the damnable NIRV states...
"In his very nature he was God. But he did not think that being equal with God was something he should hold on to." -NIRV
Oh my! What have they done? They have
corrupted the Words of the eternal God in Heaven! Listen my friend,
Jesus was not only God in His nature, but in EVERY WAY. Isaiah 9:6 (KJB)
calls Jesus "THE EVERLASTING FATHER." In John 8:58 Jesus claimed to be
Almighty God... "Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you,
Before Abraham was, I am." We read in Exodus 3:14... "And
God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the
children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you." The NIRV states in
Philippians 2:6 that Jesus "did not think that being equal with God was
something he should hold on to." Blasphemy!!! There is NOT one
Scripture in the entire Bible teaching that Jesus gave up His deity when He
came to the earth. To the contrary, we read in Colossians 2:9, "For
in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily." The Godhead
walked this earth in the fleshly body of the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus
came to this earth as 100% God, and 100% man.
Conclusion
Sadly, the folks at Zondervan are going to Hell, as are the evil people who put the NIV series of bibles together... "And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book" (Revelation 22:19). We are warned in Deuteronomy 4:2, "Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it..." Woe unto the translating committees, and everyone involved in the tampering of God's Word. Hell will be hot! Psalm 138:2 declares that God has elevated His Word above His name... "I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name." Ever heard the saying, "A man's name is only as good as his word"? Well, the same is true of God. In fact, the rainbow is a constant reminder that God keeps all His promises. God has promised the lake of Fire for those who corrupt His Word. The New International Reader's Version is of the Devil, and will ultimately go back to perdition from whence it came.
"For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ." -2nd Corinthians 2:17
