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.
A pede put a video of Kent Hovind who back in the 90's went through the history of the 2 current codexes: 1.) Codex sinnaticus which every Bible apart from the Geneva and kjv are translated and it was found in Egypt and written by the alexandrians who also stoned our first Christian martyr Stephen. They were the gnostic anti Trinitarians who removed verses specifically mentioning the diety of Jesus then acoused the textus receptus for adding verses as most commentaries in New age Bibles will tell you.
2.) Textus receptus which was found in king James' time in the church of Antioch (the first Christian church in turkey) which include the kjv and the Geneva. The strength of the textus receptus is that the dead sea scrolls confirm WORD FOR WORD as kent put it, that the textus receptus is the pure unedited preserved word of God. As the psalmist prophesied. The dead sea scrolls completely matched the textus receptus minus spelling. No human could cause something of that magnitude.
God bless you in Jesus name, sibling and welcome to the fold.amen
Amen sibling. Defend the kjv, Geneva. In Jesus name amen

Textus receptus was written by Erasmus based on a handful of Greek manuscripts he had on hand and the Latin Vulgate. It was not "found"
Right. I'm not saying it like it's a bad thing, just clarifying the compiled TR wasn't unearthed somewhere through archeological means. It was constructed by Erasmus through codices that had been in libraries for a while, and I'm sure they had been "found" at some point.
