I've had my feet in and out over the years of really starting my journey into the words of Jesus Christ, but haven't fully accepted it. I finished watching [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZ4NTdSK5ac] and my mind is blown. Especially the part he says towards the end that "why should god show himself to me if I won't continue banging on the door over and over?"
It's like I've been waiting for proof, but if I knock once or twice, don't get proof and give up, why should god present himself?
I encourage you all to watch this video. For those of us who were on Voat, it says a lot of what we already knew, but he provided sources, citations, photos. It's quite remarkable the work he put into this video.
Anyways, I would like to get myself a bible and I am curious what the most accurate version is?
I am also curious if the words of the bible today can be trusted? Who is to say the satanists didn't take over publication and tweak words, remove verses, etc? This is a legitimate concern of mine.
This is the most serious post I've ever made and I am genuinely looking forward to responses so I can proceed to the next step of this journey.
I prefer the New King James Version.
King James is missing 7 books. "Thou shalt not add or take away..."
Which ones?
The 7 books are not regarded by anyone as the inerrant Word of God but are regarded by Catholics as a supplemental set that has a unique place among other works of men. "Thou shalt not add" does apply to them. They are Tobit, Judith, Baruch, Wisdom (of Solomon), Sirach (Ecclesiasticus), and 1 and 2 Maccabees. Other than the institution of Hanukkah in the 2nd century BC you're not missing much.
Thanks!!
Well since the catholics worship, Mary as 'special' pray to her and to others for 'intercession' I am thinking it is satanic...and it is...false gods etc...and they LIE to the sheep...a LOT! And look at the pope....really? When the Lord tells me to read that crap as worship then I will ...till then...history? I don't know...
That is likely the apocryphal books. The Catholic church still has it in the KJV language IIRC
I have been taught that the Apocryphal books have great wisdom, and should be read & considered with the Holy Ghost as a guide.
When I include those in my study & cross reference it has so many interesting Qincidences.
I've heard of the Apocrophyra, and bought my dad a copy years ago. I will find an online resource. Thanks!
