The Strong Delusion

The Strong Delusion.
The Bible speaks of a great Falling Away and a Strong Delusion that is coming; the strong
delusion will be sent by God, and this strong delusion will be directed not only at those of the
world that are lost in their sins, but specifically at all lukewarm, and undecided Christians as
well
2Th 2:9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power
and signs and lying wonders,
2Th 2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish;
because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
2Th 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they
should believe a lie:
2Th 2:12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had
pleasure in unrighteousness.
2Th 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come,
except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son
of perdition;
Many have asked the question: how is it possible that End Times apostasy can sweep the world
so quickly in the Last Days and so few see that it is happening? In fact fewer and fewer Bible
professing Christians see what is taking place even now.
The answer to this dilemma can only be understood in light of the Bible. I will try to explain
what is happening from a biblical perspective, why this is happening, and where things are
headed in the future. We know that the Word of God is inspired by God and is profitable for
teaching and for correction.
2Ti 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for
doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
In the Last Days both unbelievers and believers will be the target of Satans agenda. He wants
to deceive the whole world, as he is the god of this world.
2Co_4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which
believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of
God, should shine unto them.
Apostasy involves seducing those who once believed and deceiving them so they become part
of the problem rather than the solution. Rather than warning others that the end is near and that
the antichrist is at the door, they actually promote the lie.
Since the fall of man in Genesis chapter three when the serpent first tempted man, man has
chosen to decide for himself what is good and what is evil.
Fallen man has exercised his free will and has chosen evil over good,
Isa 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for
light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Gen 8:21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I
will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of
man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing
living, as I have done.
We are all products of a fallen nature, and as such it becomes necessary to examine carefully
what we perceive as truth. I believe this is why God gave us the written Word, the Bible. We
need this divine, outside source to keep us in check. In fact the Bible warns us about the
danger in trusting our feelings.
Pro 14:12 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end
thereof are the ways of death.
Pro 16:25 There is a way that seemeth
right unto a man, but the end thereof are
the ways of death.
Pro 28:26 He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh
wisely, he shall be delivered.
If we are wise, we must reasonably evaluate
the facts that are found outside of ourselves.
Man has received ample warning from his creator about following his heart or feelings and he is
without excuse:
Pro 21:2 Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth
the hearts.
Jer 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who
can know it?
Pro 28:26 He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh
wisely, he shall be delivered.
Deu 12:8 Ye shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, every
man whatsoever is right in his own eyes.
2Ti 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;
2Ti 4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and
shall be turned unto fables.
2Ti 4:5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the
work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.
Envariably there will be many christians who will say that they don't choose their
beliefs based upon their feelings. However, the scriptures say,
First, we must uderstand that the Bible clearly speaks of a spiritual battle raging all around us.
Two kingdoms are in this battle: the Kingdom of God and the kingdom of Satan.
Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against
spiritual wickedness in high places.
Col 1:13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated
us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
There are also references to corrupting the words of God, deception and handling the word of
God deceitfully. There are references to conspiracies and conspirators in the Holy Bible. Is God
a conspiracy theorist? Or is God telling us something here that we need to pay closer attention
to? Conspiracies are as much a part of the history of the world as sin is a part of the history of
man.
Eze 22:25 There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a
roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the
treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst
thereof.
Eze 22:26 Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy
things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have
they shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their
eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.
CONSPIRACY, n. - Noah Webster 1828 Dictionary

1. A combination of men for an evil purpose; an
agreement between two or more persons, to commit some
crime in concert; particularly, a combination to commit
treason, or excite sedition or insurrection against the
government of a state; a plot; as a conspiracy against the
life of a king; a conspiracy against the government.

More than forty had made this conspiracy. Acts 23.
Also in 2 Corinthians 2:17, the Spirit of God warn's;
It is not surprising to find in church history that such attempts to corrupt the Word of God were
clearly evident in the altered, polluted and revised manuscripts purporting to be the Word of God
and have existed through the centuries. Unfortunately, many people today fail to see that even
greater corruptions of the Word of God are taking place before our very eyes.
2Co 2:17 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.
So let's consider what Job is saying here, the cause which I knew not I searched
out..
Even Jesus warned us to Take heed and Beware, and let us not sleep, as do others; but
let us watch and be sober and Prove all things.
Job 29:16 I was a father to the poor: and the cause which I knew not I
searched out.
Luk 21:8 And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come
in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not
therefore after them.
1Th 5:6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
1Th 5:21 Prove all things;
hold fast that which is
good.
Argumentum ad Hominem (abusive and circumstantial): the fallacy of attacking the
character or circumstances of an individual who is advancing a statement or an argument
instead of trying to disprove the truth of the statement or the soundness of the argument.
Often the argument is characterized simply as a personal attack.

The personal attack is also often termed an "ad personem argument": the statement or
argument at issue is dropped from consideration or is ignored, and the locutor's character or
circumstances are used to influence opinion.

The fallacy draws its appeal from the technique of "getting personal." The assumption is
that what the locutor is saying is entirely or partially dictated by his character or special
circumstances and so should be disregarded.
When considering a matter we must never resort to or believe personelly abusive
and circumstantial arguments.
So the Lord tells us in Hosea 4:6.
Hos 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast
rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me:
seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
One must realize that deceived people do not know that they are deceived, and that a person
will remain deceived unless they diligently and honestly put forth the effort to search for and
accept truth. No one on earth is immune to being deceived or causing deception.
Mat 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew
great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive
the very elect.
Let's consider what Lucifer boasted in his pride, when he said,
Now, Lucifer will be brought down to hell, but not before his proud ambitions to take the
place of the Lord Jesus Christ and be like the most High. are fulfilled
Isa 14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the
most High.
And as the book of Revelation tells us:
2Th 2:4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that
is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself
that he is God.
Rev 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names
are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of
the world.
Rev 13:14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those
miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that
dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the
wound by a sword, and did live.
Rev 13:15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image
of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the
image of the beast should be killed.
Let's suppose you wanted a true picture or image of God. Where would we look for this image?
The disciples had a vision of him on the mount of transfiguration. We read in Matthew 17:2,
This was the glorified Christ. No artist could give us a picture of Christ which would show the
glowing of Christs face as the sun and his raiment as white as the light. They would only rob
Christ of his glory by miserably falling short of a true painting of Christ in his present glory.
Mat 17:2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the
sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
2Co 4:4 In whom the god of
this world hath blinded the
minds of them which believe
not, lest the light of the
glorious gospel of Christ,
who is the image of God,
should shine unto them.
So we can see here that the image of God is His glorious gospel, the image of God is
the word of God.
Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
Col 1:13 Who hath delivered us
from the power of darkness, and
hath translated us into the
kingdom of his dear Son:
Col 1:14 In whom we have
redemption through his blood,
even the forgiveness of sins:
Col 1:15 Who is the image of the
invisible God, the firstborn of
every creature:
Rev 19:13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his
name is called The Word of God.
So what then, could possibly be the image of the beast? After all, we can see two different
images being spoken of in the scriptures.
Isa 14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most
High.
Rev 13:14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those
miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that
dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the
wound by a sword, and did live.
Rev 13:15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image
of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the
image of the beast should be killed.
It would only make since then too have a copy of God's Word.
However, it would not be truth, it would be another jesus. A false god.
2Co 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his
subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
2Co 11:4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not
preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another
gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.
Gen 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and
between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou
shalt bruise his heel.
Luk 8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
1Pe 1:23 Being born again, not of
corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by
the word of God, which liveth and abideth
for ever.
The Scriptures also teach that there are two Seeds, the corruptible seed and the
incoruptable seed.
Isa 57:3 But draw near hither, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of the
adulterer and the whore.
Isa 57:4 Against whom do ye sport yourselves? against whom make ye
a wide mouth, and draw out the tongue? are ye not children of
transgression, a seed of falsehood,
Many scholars recognize or cannot deny that there are two manuscript streams from which
bible versions are made. There is truth and there is error.

1Co 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus
Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions
among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in
the same judgment.
We should all consider what Paul wrote in 1 Cor
1:10:
The Alexandria or Vatican stream or tree is
where we find the Luciferian scholars
Wescott and Hort. This Alexandria or
Vaticanus tree produces all the error in the
Non-Authorized scriptures.

The Antioch, Syrian, Textus Receptus,
Majority Text stream is the tree which
produces the Authorized scriptures. These
scriptures agree with each other 100% of
the time. This is verified by the Dead Sea
Scrolls and true scholarship.

The "Received Text"

Down through history, long before the
advent of the printing press, men made
copies of the Scriptures by hand. However,
they did not all do so with the same attitude
toward the Scriptures. Many made their
copies with a sense of spiritual awe, not
daring to change a word, because it was the
Word of God. Archaeologists have found
thousands of these copies from all over the
ancient world, and been amazed at how
they agree! Truly God did preserve His Word
in His church. The text they give us is often
called by one of the following names:

Textus Receptus (Latin for "Received Text")

Byzantine Text - because of the part of the
world in which we find it

Antiochan Text - the church at Antioch used
it
The "Alexandrian Text"

In Alexandria, Egypt, a group of "scholars"
thought they could do better. When they
made their copies, they made
"corrections" that they thought better
presented what the Scriptures should say.
Some of their errors were gross blunders
(like quoting Malachi and calling it Isaiah)
but others were more subtle (slight word
changes to take away the deity of Christ).
They removed verses they didn't like. The
Alexandrian copyists had one more
characteristic they couldn't agree with
each other! Their copies differ not only
from the vast majority of existing Scripture
texts, but even from each other. A very
small number of these manuscripts exist
today. This is called the Alexandrian Text.

Some so called experts today (who think they're smarter than God) claim that a copy
[translation] of God's Word cannot be inspired or inerrant; but that is just not true. In fact, a
translation of the originals can be inspired and inerrant.

Consider that when Matthew quotes Isaiah 7:14 in Matthew 1:23, he alters the text somewhat:

Although the wording is different, and a different number of words used, we clearly see that
Matthew 1:23 is just as inspired and inerrant as Isaiah 7:14. Matthew faithfully conveys the
meaning of Isaiah 7:14. Likewise, the King James Bible faithfully conveys the meaning of the
autographs, and its words are thus inspired.

Isa 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin
shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Mat 1:23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son,
and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God
with us.
Mat 3:3 For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one
crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
Isa 40:3 The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD,
make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
Mar 1:3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make
his paths straight.
Luk 3:4 As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice
of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
Joh 1:23 He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of
the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias.
Consider also, all four gospels alter the text of Isa 40:3,
If you say that the New Testament writers got something wrong, you are either charging the
Holy Spirit with making a mistake, or charging the apostles with being uninspired. Consider
what Peter says,
2Pe 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private
interpretation.
2Pe 1:21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men
of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
Again, though the wording is different, and a different number of words used, we clearly see
that Mat 3:3, Mar 1:3, Luk 3:4, Joh 1:23 are just as inspired and inerrant as Isa 40:3. They all
faithfully convey the meaning of Isa 40:3. Likewise, the King James Bible faithfully conveys
the meaning of the autographs, and its words are thus inspired.
1Co 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus
Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions
among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind
and in the same judgment.
In Matthew 5:18 Jesus said,
Someone once asked Dr. Jack Hyles (1926-2001), Brother Hyles, do you believe the Bible is
inspired Word-for-Word? Brother Hyles replied, I believe in jot and tittle inspiration! A jot and
tittle are the smallest grammatical marks in the Greek language (similar to the dot above the
English letter i. It is plain to see from Jesus' Words that the integrity of the Scriptures is a big
deal to God. In fact, Psalms 138:2 declares...
Mat 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or
one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
The reason WHY is obvious to see, that is, because God's name is only as true as His
Word. Philippians 2:9-10 says that there is no name any higher in the universe than the
holy and precious name of JESUS; yet Psalms 138:2 says the Words of God are even
higher. for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.
Psa 138:2 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.
Php 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly
exalted him, and given him a name which is
above every name:
Php 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee
should bow, of things in heaven, and things in
earth, and things under the earth;
I agree with pastor Jack Hyles 100% who stated:

I must have every Word if I speak His message. If I
didn't think I had a perfect Bible I'd close this one, walk
out that door, I'd never walk in the pulpit again. Dr.
Jack Hyles
Likewise, in Matthew 4:4 Jesus say's, It is written [quoted from Deuteronomy 8:3], Man shall
not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
I would not give, knowingly, one thin
dime to a college that does not
believe in the verbal inspiration of this
Book I hold tonight. Pastor Jack
Hyles, from the timeless sermon,
YOU MUST GO THROUGH
ARABIA; preached October 11, 1981
If I am to live for God, then I need an EVERY WORD Bible. From these Scriptures, it is
abundantly clear that those imposters today who say that we don't have God's Word, and that
all Bible translations are flawed at best, are LIARS!

Mat 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by
every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
New version editors exhibit gross unfamiliarity with recent papyri scholarship. The oldest
papyrus in the world, P66 has predominantly KJV readings. They are also in the dark
concerning the much greater number of the older texts agreeing with the Majority Text.

Their footnotes almost invariably show doubt instead of faith. They tend to have God become
the impersonal "One" of Hindus and New Agers. Christ becomes a position rather than a
Person. Jesus, is often made just a man, as many of the scriptures where He was worshipped
are often removed. In short with their, on average 64,000 deletions, new version perversions line
up with the new creeds of the New Age.

The Majority texts are much more thoroughly researched. They did not spend the whole 1000
years of the Dark Ages where the pope's monks could change them, in the Vatican. The Majority
Texts agree with each other 100% of the time. God does not change and is not the author of
confusion.

A great honest scholar of modern
times, Dr. Frank Logsdon,
repented of his work as Co-
founder and Chief-editor of the
New American Standard Version.
Before he died he said, the
modern translations use corrupted
Greek texts. He said, "You can
say the Authorized Version (KJV)
is absolutely correct. How correct?
100%correct! I believe the Spirit of
God led the translators of the
Authorized Version. If you must
stand against everyone else,
stand."
We have no reason to doubt that the KJV Bible we hold in our hands is the very word of God
preserved for us in the English language. The authority for its veracity lies not in the first
printing of the King James Version in 1611, or in the character of King James I, or in the
scholarship of the 1611 translators, or in the literary accomplishments of Elizabethan England,
or even in the Greek Received Text.
Our authority for the infallible words of the English Bible lies in the power and
promise of God to preserve His Word! God has the power. We have His Word.
Luk 6:43 For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a
corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Luk 6:44 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do
not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
Lets look at the Alexandrian text tree and its fruit.
First, people tend to only look for wolves in wolves's clothing. But Jesus said to;
Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing,
but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
And sometimes people just will not look any deeper than the surface, afraid of what they
might find out about someone that they put their trust in.
For instance, Mother Teresa stated, If in coming face to face with God we accept Him in our
lives, then we.... become a better Hindu, a better Muslim, a better Catholic, a better whatever we
are.... What God is in your mind you must accept. (Mother Teresa, M.G. Chitkara, 1998, pp. 163, 164;
Love, A Fruit Always In Season:, Daily Meditations By Mother Teresa, 1987, pp. 49, 50).
Joh 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the
way, the truth, and the life: no man
cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Not through Buhda, or the pope.

Homosexual prostitution inquiry ensnares VIPs with Reagan, Bush
"A homosexual prostitution ring is under investigation by federal and District authorities and
includes among its clients key officials of the Reagan and Bush administrations, military officers,
congressional aides and US and foreign businessmen with close social ties to Washington's
political elite. Reporters for this newspaper examined hundreds of credit-card vouchers, drawn
on both corporate and personal cards and made payable to the escort service operated by the
homosexual ring." -- Washington Times, 6/29/1989

One of the saddest commentaries concerning America today is that the homosexual
influenced New International Version (NIV) is the most widely used bible in churches today.
Should it be surprising that the words sodomite, effeminate and fornicator have all been
COMPLETELY REMOVED from the NIV? The word sodomite relates to the wicked city of
Sodom, which was infamous for its homosexuality (Genesis 19:1-11), amongst other sins.
Dr. Virginia Mollenkott, a literary critic on the NIV
translation, was a sodomite. In Episcopal,
Witness (June 1991, pp. 20-23), she comes out
of the closet by saying, "My lesbianism has
ALWAYS been a part of me. . ." This could
explain why, "sodomite" is never found in the NIV.
(Deut. 23:17, I Kings 14:24, 15:12 , 22:46 , II
Kings 23:7) Not only that, but all other references
to sodomy are perverted to say something else:
1Cor. 6:9, ". . . neither fornicators, nor idolaters,
nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of
themselves with mankind, . . ." is replaced with
the ". . . nor male prostitutes nor homosexual
offenders. . ."
"It is interesting to note how often our Church has availed herself of practices which were in
common use among pagans...Thus it is true, in a certain sense, that some Catholic rites and
ceremonies are a reproduction of those of pagan creeds...." (The Externals of the Catholic Church, Her
Government, Ceremonies, Festivals, Sacramentals and Devotions, by John F. Sullivan, p 156, published by
P.J. Kennedy, NY, 1942)

"It has often been charged... that Catholicism is overlaid with many pagan incrustations. Catholicism
is ready to accept that accusation - and even to make it her boast... the great god Pan is not really
dead, he is baptized" -The Story of Catholicism p 37

Cardinal Newman admits in his book that; the "The use of temples, and these dedicated to particular
saints, and ornamented on occasions with branches of trees; incense, lamps, and candles; votive
offerings on recovery from illness; holy water; asylums; holydays and seasons, use of calendars,
processions, blessings on the fields; sacerdotal vestments, the tonsure, the ring in marriage, turning
to the East, images at a later date, perhaps the ecclesiastical chant, and the Kyrie Eleison [Note 17],
are all of pagan origin, and sanctified by their adoption into the Church. {374}" -An Essay on the The
Development of the Christian Doctrine John Henry "Cardinal Newman" p.359

The penetration of the religion of Babylon became so general and well known that Rome was called the
"New Babylon." -Faith of our fathers 1917 ed. Cardinal Gibbons, p. 106

"In order to attach to Christianity great attraction in the eyes of the nobility, the priests adopted the
outer garments and adornments which were used in pagan cults." -Life of Constantine, Eusabius, cited
in Altai-Nimalaya, p. 94

"The Church did everything it couldto stamp out such 'pagan' rites, but had to capitualet and allow
the rites to continue with only the name of the local diety changed to some Christian saint's name." -

So God instructs us to search out a matter.
Pro 25:2 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is
to search out a matter.
Again, most people just will not look any deeper than the surface, afraid of what they
might find out about someone that they put their trust in.
On the other hand or tree; let's start with a definitive list of the Bibles that make the Authorized
Version the seventh Bible. Thus, fitting the description in Psalm 12:6 of the words of the Lord
being "purified seven times." It is not to be found in the opinions of the many writers on the
history of the English Bible. To the contrary, the definitive list is to be found in the often-
overlooked details concerning the translating of the Authorized Version.

Psa 12:6 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a
furnace of earth, purified seven times.
To begin with, the translators of the Authorized Version did acknowledge that they had a
multitude of sources from which to draw from: "Neither did we think much to consult the
Translators or Commentators, Chaldee, Hebrew, Syrian, Greek, or Latin, no nor the Spanish,
French, Italian, or Dutch." The Greek editions of Erasmus, Stephanus, and Beza were all
accessible, as were the Complutensian and Antwerp Polyglots, and the Latin translations of
Pagninus, Tremellius, and Beza. What we want, however, is a reference to English Bibles.

The information we need is to be found, not in the translators' "The Epistle Dedicatory" or their
"The Translators to the Reader," but in the "Rules to be Observed in the Translation of the
Bible." These general rules, fifteen in number, were advanced for the guidance of the
translators.

The translators also acknowledged that they had at their disposal all the previous English
translations of the sixteenth century: "We are so far off from condemning any of their labors
that travailed before us in this kind, either in this land or beyond sea, either in King Henry's
time, or King Edward's (if there were any translation, or correction of a translation in his time)
or Queen Elizabeth's of everrenowned memory, that we acknowledge them to have been
raised up of God, for the building and furnishing of his Church, and that they deserve to be had
of us and of posterity in everlasting remembrance." Although this statement of the translators
refers to English Bibles, it is not specific as to exactly which versions.
RICHARD BANCROFTS RULES TO BE OBSERVED IN THE TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE.

1. The ordinary Bible read in the church, commonly called the Bishops Bible, to be followed,
and as little altered as the truth of the original will permit.

2. The names of the prophets, and the holy writers, with the other names in the text, to be
retained as near as may be, accordingly as they are vulgarly used.

3. The old ecclesiastical words to be kept, namely, as the word church not to be translated
congregation &c.

4. When any word hath divers significations, that to be kept which hath been most commonly
used by the most eminent Fathers, being agreeable to the propriety of the place, and the
analogy of faith.

5. The division of the chapters to be altered either not at all, or as little as may be, if necessity
so require.

6. No marginal notes at all to be affixed, but only for the explanation of the Hebrew or Greek
words, which cannot without some circumlocution so briefly and fitly be expressed in the text.

7. Such quotations of places to be marginally set down, as shall serve for the fit reference of
one Scripture to another.

8. Every particular man of each company to take the same chapter or chapters; and having
translated or amended them severally by himself, where he thinks good, all to meet together,
confer what they have done, and agree for their part what shall stand.

9. As any one company hath dispatched any one book in this manner, they shall send it to the
rest, to be considered of seriously and judiciously; for his Majesty is very careful in this point.

10. If any company, upon the review of the book so sent, shall doubt or differ upon any places,
to send them word thereof, note the places, and therewithal send their reasons; to which if they
consent not, the difference to be compounded at the general meeting, which is to be of the chief
persons of each company, at the end of the work.

11. When any place of special obscurity is doubted of, letters to be directed by authority, to send
to any learned man in the land for his judgment in such a place.

12. Letters to be sent from every Bishop to the rest of his clergy, admonishing them of this
Translation in hand; and to move and charge as many as, being skilful in the tongues, have
taken pains in that kind, to send his particular observations to the company, either at
Westminster, Cambridge, or Oxford.

13. The directors in each company to be the Deans of Westminster and Chester, for that place;
and the Kings Professors in the Hebrew and Greek in either University.

14. These translations to be used, when they agree better with the text than the Bishops Bible:
Tyndales,
Matthews,
Coverdales,
Whitchurchs [Great],
Geneva.

15. Besides the said directions before mentioned, three or four of the most ancient and grave
divines in either of the Universities, not employed in translating, to be assigned by the Vice-
Chancellor, upon conference with the rest of the Heads, to be overseers of the Translations, as
well Hebrew as Greek, for the better observation of the fourth rule above specified.
And thus we have our answer. The seven English versions that make the English Bibles up to
and including the Authorized Version fit the description in Psalm 12:6 of the words of the Lord
being "purified seven times" are Tyndale's, Matthew's, Coverdale's, the Great Bible (printed by
Whitechurch), the Geneva Bible, the Bishops' Bible, and the King James Bible.

1Jn 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of
God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
1Jn 4:2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that
Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
1Jn 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the
flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard
that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
The scriptures teach us what is needed to decipher which then is Truth.

The modern translations are based on the work of two nineteenth century Greek scholars from
England--B. F. Westcott and F. J. A. Hort. Westcott and Hort, who were deeply involved in the
occult, hated the Textus Receptus Greek text, from which the King James Bible was translated,
so they participated in creating a differant Greek text. This Westcott and Hort Greek text was
based primarily on two very corrupt fourth century ROMAN CATHOLIC manuscripts: Codex
Vaticanus (discovered in the Pope's library in 1481) and Sinaiticus (discovered in 1859 in a
trash can at St. Catherine's monastery on Mt. Sinai). These are usually the "older" and "better"
manuscripts that we keep hearing so much about.
Life and Letters of Fenton John
Anthony Hort by his son Arthur
Fenton Hort.
Fenton Hort, a nineteenth century occult mystic who worked on the bible revision committee of
1881, wrote, At present very many orthodox but rational men are being unawares acted upon
by influences which will assuredly bear good fruit in due time, if the process is allowed to go on
quietly (Life and letters of Fenton John Anthony Hort, Vol. 1, 1896, p. 400).
In Vol. 1 on page 76 we read,

The pure Romish view
seems to me nearer, and
more likely to lead to, the truth
than the Evangelical;
On page 400, Hort admits that,

The positive doctrines even of the
evangelicals seem to me
perverted rather than untrue.
There are, I fear, still serious
differences between us on the
subject of authority, and especially
the authority of the Bible,
Hort shows his hatred for the TRUE Greek
Text on page 211, were he states,

I had no idea till last few weeks of the
importance of texts, having read so little
Greek Testament, and dragged on with the
villainous Textus Receptus. Westcott
recommended me to get Bagsters Critical,
which has Scholzs Text, and is most
convenient in small quarto, with parallel
Greek and English, and a wide margin on
purpose for notes. This pleased me much;
so many little alterations on good MS.
authority made things clear not in a vulgar,
notional way, but by giving a deeper and
fuller meaning. But after all scholz is very
capricious and sparing in introducing good
readings; and Tischendorf I find a great
acquisition, above all, because he gives
various readings at the bottom of his page,
and his prolegomena are invaluable. Think
of that vile Textus Receptus leaning entirely
on late MSS; it is a blessing there are such
early ones
B. F. Westcott's son wrote
this book concerning his
father, and his fathers
beliefs and work.
The Ghost Society [was] founded by no less a person than Edward White Benson, the future
bishop of Canterbury. As A.C. Benson writes in his father's biography, the Archbishop was
always more interested in psychic phenomena than he cared to admit. Two members of the
Ghost Club became Bishops [Benson and Westcott] and one Professor of Divinity [Hort]. At the
same time that they were speaking to demon ghosts, Hort stated that the King James Bible was
"VILLAINOUS."
On pages 228-229, Westcott told Hort what he thought of the Textus Receptus,

I feel most keenly the disgrace of circulating what I feel to be falsified copies of the Holy
Scripture, and am most anxious to provide something to replace them.

He then went on to say on that same page,

But pray think how utterly ignorant and prejudiced even well-informed men are on the text
of the New Testament.
Westcott shows his love for ROMAN
CATHOLICISM on page 81, when he
writes,

After leaving the monastery we shaped
our course to a little oratory which we
discovered on the summit of
neighbouring hill, and by a little
scrambling we reached it. Fortunately we
found the door open. It is very small, with
one kneelingplace; and behind a screen
was a Piet the size of life (i.e. a virgin
and dead Christ). The sculpture was
painted, and such a group in such a
place and at such a time was deeply
impressive. I could not help thinking on
the fallen grandeur of the Romish
Church, on her zeal even in error, on her
earnestness and self-devotion, which we
might nobler views and a purer end,
strive to imitate. Had I been alone I could
have knelt there for hours.
In an index of The Founders of Psychical Research we find the company with which Westcott
and Hort were associated:

Automatic Writing, Benson, Biblical Criticism, Mme H.P. Blavatsky, Clairvoyance, 'Control'
Spirit, Crystalgazing, Charles Darwin, Sigmond Freud, Ghost Club, F.J.A. Hort, Hypnotism,
'Inspirational' writing and speaking in early British spiritualism, C.J. Jung, Levitation, J.B.
Lightfoot, Mediumship, Mesmerism, Multiple Personality, Plato, Society for Psychical Research,
Spiritualism, Swedenborne Society, Synthetic Society, Telepathy, Trance Medium, B.F.
Westcott.

There is so much more that space can hardly do it justice. This quote comes from R.A.
Riplinger's book New Age Versions.
I would highly recommend that anyone
wanting to do some further studies into this
material. They should read this book. It is also
very well sourced.
I find all this quite interesting, seeing that this "Guild" can be traced from 1851 up to the
present day! Westcott was an active member from 1851 to 1862.

Isa 8:19 And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar
spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek
unto their God? for the living to the dead?
Lev 19:31 Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards,
to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.
Through the various occult organizations of the world Lucifer has launched an all out
campaign to change his worldwide image from that of his truly evil nature as Satan to that
of the most high God himself. The 1904 annual report of the Theosophical Society stated: I
believe it is through the churches, and not through the Theosophical Society, that
Theosophy [that is the worship of Lucifer] must and should come to large bodies of people
in the west. (Transactions of the Theosophical Society, H. P. Blavatsky, 1904, p. 377).
And then just eight years later the 1912 report of the Theosophical Society stated: Our
Lodges continue their propaganda work....Outside the Lodges many of the members engage
in what is really Theosophical work such as lecturing, talking on the principles we are trying
to put forward, preaching and other activities in connection with the Christian Churches and
other organizations....(Theosophist Magazine, Annie Besant, 1912, p. 88).
The Vaticanus is considered to be the most authoritative, although it is responsible for over
thirty-six thousand changes that appear today in the new versions. This perverted manuscript
contains the books of the Apocrypha, which are not scripture; it omits the pastoral epistles (I
Timothy through Titus), the Book of Revelation, and it cuts off the Book of Hebrews at Hebrews
9:14 (a very convenient stopping point for the Catholic Church, since God forbids their
priesthood in Hebrews 10!). The attacks on the word of God found in these manuscripts
originated in Alexandria, Egypt with the deceitful work of such pagan Greek "scholars" as Origen
and Clement of Alexandria. Then in 313 A.D. the Roman emperor Constantine ordered fifty
copies of "the Bible" from Eusebius, the Bishop of Caesaria. Eusebius, being a devout student
of Origen's work, chose to send him manuscripts filled with Alexandrian corruption. So the
corrupt Alexandrian text (also called the "Egyptian" or "Hesychian" type text) found it's way into
the Vatican manuscript, then eventually into the Westcott and Hort Greek Text, and finally into
the new "Bible" versions in your local "Christian" bookstore. Therefore, when you hear or read of
someone "correcting" the King James Bible with "older" or "more authoritative" manuscripts, you
are simply hearing someone trying to use a ROMAN CATHOLIC text to overthrow the God-
honored text of the Protestant Reformation and the great revivals. God has never honored this
corrupt text and He never will.
With the invention of Gutenbergs printing press in 1440, In a short time the Papacy lost nearly
half of Europe to Protestantism. When people began reading the newly printed Bibles based on
the Received Text, they noticed that much of Roman Catholicism was refuted by Scripture. This
resulted in vast multitudes of people leaving Roman Catholicism for more Bible-based
Christianity. Rome was highly displeased by this and sought by many devices to win these
countries back to her control. Some of Romes devices were as follows:
1) The first tool Rome used was the Inquisition where people who disagreed with any of Roman
Catholicisms teachings were interrogated, tortured and often handed over to Catholic controlled
governments to burn, drown or execute in some horrific manner.
2) Rome started the Counter-Reformation in 1534 when Ignatius de Loyola founded the
infamous gestapo-like organisation known as Jesuits (the Society of Jesus) to
a) recapture nations lost to the Protestant Reformation, and to
b) attack, discredit and remove the Textus Receptus Greek Text on which the KJV Bible is
based.
Go forth and set the world on fire.
St. Ignatius of Loyola (Black Pope)
3) The Jesuits aim of the destruction of the Protestant religion manifested as:
i) Establishing colleges and universities to attack and indoctrinate aspiring scholars of a targeted
nation. These students after being indoctrinated are infiltrated into every area of society, as
Opus Dei Jesuits to accomplish the plans of the papacy. They will stop at nothing to take over
nations for the Pope.
ii) Guy Fawkes, a Jesuit, in November 5, 1605 had placed 36 barrels of gunpowder under the
very spot in the House of Commons where King James would be sitting in a few hours. He was
arrested and executed before his plan could be implemented.
The King James Bible was on the
Vaticans forbidden book list for
hundreds of years.

Pope Pius IV had a list of the forbidden
books compiled and officially prohibited
them in the Index of Trent (Index
Librorum Prohibitorum) of 1559.

This is an excerpt:

Rule IV
Since experience teaches that, if the reading
of the Holy Bible in the vernacular is
permitted generally without discrimination,
more damage than advantage will result
because of the boldness of men, the
judgment of bishops and inquisitors is to
serve as guide in this regard. Bishops and
inquisitors may, in accord with the counsel of
the local priest and confessor, allow Catholic
translations of the Bible to be read by those
of whom they realize that such reading will
not lead to the detriment but to the increase
of faith and piety. The permission is to be
given in writing. Whoever reads or has such
a translation in his possession without this
permission cannot be absolved from his sins
until he has turned in these Bibles
Those that have ears to hear, listen.

The Roman Catholic church wants the whole
world to see her as a biblical church. Rome
is using this exhibit to gather all Christians
and Jews under the Word of God,
positioning herself as protector of the Word.

In order to seduce Evangelicals closer to
Rome, she now claims the King James bible
is Catholic.
Sometimes, down here in the south we
call this CRAWFISHING! (Or swimming
backwards to escape a lie for those that
don't understand)
Let us not forget history or its martyrs. Many burned at the stake for translating the
scriptures by the hand of Rome. She will do anything to gain control over the true
church of Jesus and all the religions in the world. Dont be fooled.
Rev 17:4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked
with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full
of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
These false prophets are controlled by seducing spirits; and while working behind or under the
guise of preachers, pastors, teachers, elders, and church laymen they are preaching, teaching
and promoting doctrines of devils.
1Ti 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall
depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
To clarify; the strong delusion will not be sent by God solely because of the actions of the false
prophets, or due only to the blasphemous content of their false teachings. The strong delusion
will be sent upon those that claim to be Christian and are proven apostate due to their
acceptance of ungodly teaching. The Strong Delusion will be sent upon the false teachers and
those that believe them.
Many strong Christians have stood their ground and continued to believe, read, and study only
the Authorized King James Bible. Many others, however, have forsaken the Book that God has
used for centuries. Such people have fallen for smooth advertising schemes and have actually
started believing that the modern versions are superior to the King James Bible. It's very sad
that most Christians today have not taken time to study the subject thoroughly enough to see
what is really happening.
FABLE: The King James Bible was revised several times before 1800, so modern translations
are just additional revisions of the original King James Bible of 1611.

FACT: The so-called "revisions" of the King James Bible prior to 1800 were to correct
typographical errors, add notes, and omit the Apocrypha from between the Testaments. There
were no changes in the actual TEXT of the King James Bible. The REAL changes (over 36,000
of them) didn't start until the modern revisionists came on the scene.

One major question often arises in any attack such as this. How far should we go in answering
the critics? If we were to attempt to answer every shallow objection to the infallibility of the
English Bible, we would never be able to accomplish anything else. Sanity must prevail
somewhere. As always, the answer is in God's Word. Proverbs 26:4-5 states:
Pro 26:4 Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like
unto him.
Pro 26:5 Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own
conceit.
FABLE: The modern translations are more accurate because they have been translated from
older and better manuscripts.

FACT: It is truly amazing how so many Christians have bought into this lie without ever
checking to see WHAT these manuscripts are, WHERE they came from, and WHO wrote
them. It's also strange that no one seems to be asking the question, "Has God honored these
'older' and 'better' manuscripts throughout Church History?" Is older always better, or that, it
just wasn't used because they didn't recognize it as the truth?
FABLE: New translations are needed to correct the errors and contradictions in the King James
Bible.

FACT: No one has ever proven that there are errors and contradictions in the KJV. Many
"Christian" colleges and preachers have a nasty habit of pointing out APPARENT contradictions
to their people, but these arguments have been disproven so many times that it is nothing less
than disgusting to hear them still being used.

FABLE: New Translations are needed to bring the archaic Old English language up to date.
People have trouble understanding the language of the King James Bible.

FACT: The King James language is NOT hard to understand. Most of the so-called "archaic"
words are explained by the context of the passage or by comparing the passage with other
passages in the Bible where the same word is used. Heady and high-minded people resent the
King James language because it is plain and simple, and it isn't in tune with their high-minded
vocabulary. In fact, the Grade Level Indicator of the Flesch-Kincaid research company says the
King James language is EASIER to understand than the new versions.
The funny thing is though, these
Illiterate Christians complain that
the KJV English is too hard to
understand.... but they
supposedly understand Greek
enough to correct the KJV.
We certainly agree that the language of the King James Bible is a unique language, but
why shouldn't it be? It's the WORD OF GOD!


FABLE: The King James Bible cannot be infallible because the translators were only men, and
all men are sinners. The human element prevents the KJV from being infallible.

FACT: If this is true, then even the ORIGINAL AUTOGRAPHS in Hebrew and Greek were not
infallible, because they too were penned by men!

The fact of the matter is that the King James translators were only INSTRUMENTS of
preservation (which is exactly what they called themselves in the Dedicatory to the A.V. 1611).
God has always been the Divine Preserver of His word,
He has used men as tools and instruments of preservation, just as He uses men to teach and
preach His words. When men humbly yield themselves to the will of God, God can use them to
accomplish His will,

Psa 12:6 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of
earth, purified seven times.
Psa 12:7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this
generation for ever.
Rom 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye
present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your
reasonable service.
Rom 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the
renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable,
and perfect, will of God.
and this is precisely what happened between 1604 and
1611.
FABLE: The King James translators added to the word of God, because the italicized words in the
KJV were not in the originals.

FACT: The italics in the KJV prove that the translators were HONEST in their work. They set the
words in italics so we'd know they were not in the manuscripts they were using.

Besides, no one has a copy of the original manuscripts today, so no one knows for certain that
the italicized words aren't in them. In fact, there are many cases where we know that the italicized
words are justified. For example, notice in Deuteronomy 8:3 that the word "word" is in italics.
However, when Jesus quotes this verse in Matthew 4:4 he INCLUDES the italicized word! If the
italicized word does not belong in the Bible, why did the Lord Jesus quote it?

Deu 8:3 And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with
manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might
make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that
proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live.
Mat 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread
alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
FABLE: The original King James Bible included the Apocrypha in the Old Testament.

FACT: The King James translators knew the Apocrypha was not scripture, so they placed
it BETWEEN the Old and New Testament as a HISTORICAL DOCUMENT, not as
scripture
Satan's methods to deceive man have remained unchanged from Genesis 3:1,
Gen 3:1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the
LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not
eat of every tree of the garden?
We must be aware that the Bible is under attack. Satan, who succeeded in selling the first
"revised" edition of God's Word to Eve in the Garden of Eden, has surely been busy in this 20th
Century along the same lines. The flood of new Bible translations, versions, revisions and
paraphrases, all claim to be the "most accurate," the "most readable" and the "most up-to-
date". The publishing and sale of these new Bibles has become a highly profitable business,
employing all the psychological approaches of modern advertising to sell them to the public.
Some think this proliferation of Bible versions is wonderful. But serious-minded, thoughtful
people must eventually ask, "Which Bible is the real Bible, the true Word of God?"
Just what is the importance of this whole debate? Could it possibly affect my beliefs? Won't the
Holy Spirit keep me from going astray? Consider these facts.

First, God has indeed promised to keep His Word until His coming; therefore, we know that
God's Word is available.

Since the beginning of time, Satan has challenged God's Word with a corrupt approximation of
God's Word. Don't be deceived my friend; Satan has always presented a corruption of God's
Word to this world, even to God Himself in an attempt to misguide God's chosen people and
to challenge God's purposes and plans.
According to Romans 10.17, your faith, the very foundation of your Christianity, hinges on
God's Holy Word. That being the case, God would not allow His Word to be corrupted. God
is greater than mankind and Satan and has indeed providentially kept His Word pure and
trustworthy for your sake. If there are two books that both claim to be God's Word and they
both say something different, even if its is only one Word that is different, then one of them
must be wrong, and God is always right. Seek, find and trust only God's Word. Your
Christianity hangs in the balance for the importance you place in God's Word will indeed
manifest itself in your Christian walk and life for years to come.
Rom 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by
the word of God.
In the temptation of Jesus, (Matthew 4) we see Satan using the first revised version ever, the
S.O.V. (Satan's Own Version). You will remember that Jesus turns back the temptation of Satan
by quoting the Word of God. Satan figures he will get involved in the act, so he quotes also; but
he likes the NIV, he leaves out part of the verse.
Satan is quoting Psalm 91:11-12, but he left out part of the verse, the part that says, "to keep
thee in all thy ways." Satan loves to corrupt God's Word for his own purpose.
Mat 4:6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written,
He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: ??????????? and in their hands they
shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Psa 91:11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
Psa 91:12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Jehovah's Witnesses believe in one God, the Creator of the universe and the God of the
Hebrew and Christian scriptures. They stress the fact that God has revealed his personal name
to humanity, which is Jehovah. Jehovah has a spirit body and lives in heaven, but sees all
things. However, Jehovah's Witnesses reject the doctrine of the Trinity
Jehovah's Witnesses disagree with the Christian belief that Jesus was "fully God, fully man."
Witnesses teach that Jesus was not God, but rather God's first creation. Jesus existed in pre-
human form as God's agent of creation and God's chief spokesman (the Word), and took on
human form as the man Jesus by means of a virgin birth.

So if the the Jehovah's Witnesses deny the doctrine of the trinity of which the KJV teaches
then we should include there translation as well in the following comparisons to see where
it takes us.

As we can see now, most all other versions (wide gate) agree on some serious doctrinal
differences. Again, however the KJV stands alone, as the narrow gate. And there are
only two lines of text to choose from. The vatican's line of text, or the Recieved Text.

after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;

Those who promote the modern bible versions do not believe any Bible is the inspired,
infallible, preserved, and pure words of the living God. They tell us "the original Hebrew and
Greek" is their final authority, hoping no one will notice that there is no such animal on the
face of this earth. They don't have it, have never seen it, and wouldn't recognize it if it fell on
their heads.
There are no original Hebrew and Greek manuscripts anywhere. The multitude of modern
versions, like the NASB, NIV, RSV, ESV, depart scores of times from the Hebrew Masoretic
texts. They are also based on very different Greek texts than that of the King James Bible. The
NKJV also does not always follow the same Greek text as the KJB and the meaning has been
radically changed in scores of verses.
What is wrong with the New King James Version (NKJV)? All it does is modernize the
words of the King James Bible, right? Why should I read the King James and not the
helpful New King James?
The New King James is not a King James Bible. It changed thousands of words, ruined
valuable verses, and when not agreeing with the King James Bible, it has instead copied the
perverted NIV, NASV or RSV. And this you must know: those who translated the NKJV did
not believe God perfectly preserved His words!

Symbols are used throughout the occult. Harpers' Encyclopedia of Mystical & Paranormal

secret wisdom accessible only to the initiated."
Thomas Nelson Publishers (publishers of the NKJV) claim, on the inside-cover, the symbol, ".
. .is an ancient symbol for the Trinity." But Acts 17:29, clearly FORBIDS such symbology: ". .
Act 17:29 Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to
think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and

And why does The Aquarian Conspiracy, a key New

freely admit it represents three inter-woven "6"s or
"666".

Both translations cannot be correct. If one is right, the other has to be wrong. No matter how
you slice it, the NKJV does not have the same meaning as the accurate King James Bible.
Many Christians are discovering the miracle of God's words in English. But the enemy has
tried to insert a monkey-wrench: the NKJV. Pastors approve it, "scholars" promote it, but the
NKJV is a wolf in sheep's clothing. The New King James is just a compromise between the
liberal, perverted Bible versions floating around and the rock-solid, accurate and preserved
words of God, the King James Bible.

Brothers and sisters, don't settle for anything less than God's words.
Gal 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon

We who believe God meant what He said about preserving His words are ridiculed as ignorant,
backwater fanatics. We believe God is the sovereign ruler of history and has preserved for us
today all His pure words in the King James Bible. God knew what would become of the English
language and how the great modern missionary movement of the late 1700's through the
1950's would be carried out by American and English missionaries carrying one Bible and
translating it into hundreds of foreign languages and dialects. No Bible in history has been
used, honored and hated as much as the King James Bible.
1Co 14:26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath

Let all things be done unto edifying.
1Co 14:27 If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most
by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.
In fact the Original languages of the Bible were in three unknown tongues:
1. Hebrew
2. Greek
3. Aramaic
God specifically says let ONE interpret.
There are not many interpretations.
Act 2:7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another,
Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?
Act 2:8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were
born?
God intended from the beginning
for every tongue, or language
to have ONE INTERPRETATION.
Act 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak
with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Act 2:5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of
every nation under heaven.
Act 2:6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together,
and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his

One Spanish, One Greman, One
Irish, and One etc.
They refuse to believe that God has in fact preserved His words in the one Book that has been
used and blessed by God a hundred times more than any other. History and the sovereignty of
God bear witness that the King James Bible is that one Book, without proven error.
Psa 12:6 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a
furnace of earth, purified seven times.
Psa 12:7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from

Deu 18:22 When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing
follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken,
but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of
him.
According to the people who believe that there are mistakes in the Bible and that God
could not preserve his words as pure words, if that were true then the Bible says not to
listen to its own writings. So I ask, if God couldnt preserve his words, are you then
denying the power of God?
Are you secure in your walk with the Lord or are you basing your trust and your salvation in
corrupted Biblical teaching under a false prophet? Do you have a personal relationship with
Jesus, or are you dependent upon your pastor or priest to get you into heaven?
Christ has stated that many will come before His Throne of Judgment believing they were
saved, even holding up that they had cast out demons and healed the sick, all in His name, yet
He will deliver to them the most feared of all rebukes possible; I NEVER knew you, depart
from me.
Mat 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in
thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many
wonderful works?
Mat 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me,
ye that work iniquity.
Not all will be saved that claim to be Christians.
Why would God send a Strong Delusion upon the world?
Because lost (unsaved) people of the earth including those that claim to be
Christians
because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be
saved.
God will send the strong delusion on those among us that are guilty of not accepting the truth
of His Holy Word found within the Old and New Testament Bible. Their guilt also lies in their
accepting and following after the unrighteous teachings perpetrated by false prophets within
the Christian church.
Why will lukewarm Christians be included in the strong delusion curse from God?
Those that claim to be Christians have been given much in the teaching and knowledge of
God.
Luk 12:48 But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes,
shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him
shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him
they will ask the more.
Lukewarm and undecided Christians are denying the deity of Christ by not bowing to His
authority in all issues of life. They are not obeying the teachings of God in His Holy Word, but
instead are following after false prophets that teach a new and corrupted gospel.
Does God's Word speak to the issue of undecided and lukewarm Christians?
Yes, Jesus states He will be disgusted with lukewarm Christians to the degree He will be
nauseated by their presence.
Rev 3:15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou
wert cold or hot.
Rev 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will
spue thee out of my mouth.
Rev 3:17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have
need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and
poor, and blind, and naked:
Can Christians that profess to know the Holy God of the Bible be lost due to
their wrong interpretation of scripture?
Tit 1:16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being
abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
Yes. God has only one true Holy Word. It cannot be rightfully interpreted and taught by false
prophets that are under the influence of seducing spirits, nor can it be correctly espoused by
Christians that have no personal walk or relationship with Jesus.
Is there punishment for Christians that do not OBEY the gospel of Jesus Christ?
2Th 1:7 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord
Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
2Th 1:8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God,
and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
Rev 16:2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there
fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast,
and upon them which worshipped his image.
It could also be said here, upon them which worshipped his word, or doctrines of devils.
Will lukewarm Christians accept the anti-Christ as being Jesus? Yes.
Mat 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall
shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall
deceive the very elect.
because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
Isa 66:4 I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them;
because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they
did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.
Many people believe the idea that truth is subjective, especially in
religion.
Some think that whatever you believe to be true, to you it is true. But what another person
believes to be true, that is true for him. So, everybody has his own "truth," even if it flatly
contradicts other people's "truths."

For years people used this idea to justify disagreements and contradictions between
denominations. They say: "One person sees the Bible one way, and others see it differently.
One interpretation is as good as another." In effect, this means that people cannot understand
the Bible alike; so whatever it means to you is right for you, even if it contradicts the way other
people see it. As long as you practice what you honestly believe the Bible says, God will be
pleased.

As a result, some people will not even seriously listen to views that differ from their own. They
think it does not matter anyway, so why discuss it?
If conflicting "interpretations" of the Bible are acceptable to God, then it really would not
matter whether you accept the truth or false teaching. What does the Bible say about this
idea?
Gal 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto
you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Gal 1:9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel
unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
To say that "one interpretation is as good as another," would be to say that people who do not
know and obey the truth, are just as well off as people who do know and obey the truth. The
Bible says this simply is not so! To be saved, we must understand what God says for us to do
to please Him. So proper interpretation of the Bible leads to eternal life, but improper
"interpretation" leads to eternal punishment.
Surely, if men had read Gods warnings in the Bible they would recognize these false prophets
spoken of in end times prophecies. But, sadly, yet it is their due; they are capable of being
deceived by falsehood, trickery, magic, lies, their own arrogance, and other deceptions sent on
the world by Satan through seducing spirits.
For us as true Christians, that is, those of us whom have asked with a broken and contrite
heart for God to forgive us in the name of Jesus, we must also pray that God would protect
and keep us from the great lie that Satan is now inflicting on the world. Pray that our God
would not send the strong delusion upon us.
THE BIBLE IS THE MOST WONDERFUL and precious book in the world. In these days of
rapid change and crumbling foundations, what a blessing it is to be reminded that our Lord
Jesus Christ said,
What a comfort and encouragement comes as we read Psalm 119:89:
Mat 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass
away.
How thankful we are that "the foundation of God standeth sure";
Psa 119:89 For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.
2Ti 2:19 Nevertheless the
foundation of God standeth
sure, having this seal, The
Lord knoweth them that are
his. And, Let every one that
nameth the name of Christ
depart from iniquity.
Eph 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but
fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
Eph 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and
prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
Eph 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto
an holy temple in the Lord:
Eph 2:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God
through the Spirit.
Eph 3:1 For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you
Gentiles,
Eph 3:2 If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which
is given me to you-ward:
Eph 3:3 How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery;
(as I wrote afore in few words,
Eph 3:4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in
the mystery of Christ)
Eph 3:5 Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of
men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the
Spirit;
The written Word of God is our final authority in all matters of which It speaks, for It is God's final
revelation to man. The Bible is God's trustworthy, authoritative Book, and no more is to be
added thereto. The Holy Spirit supernaturally inspired the writers of the 39 books of the Old
Testament to record the very words God desired His people to possess.
2Pe 1:19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that
ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and
the day star arise in your hearts:
2Pe 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private
interpretation.
2Pe 1:21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men
of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
Ecc 8:4 Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto
him, What doest thou?
