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 agree with that completely and the Word in most versions points in the same direction or meaning with different translations but to the point I made above, why point a new believer to, by far, the most difficult version to understand? Giving KJV to a new believer is a good way to scare someone off just because we might like the way it translates certain verses a little than another tranlastion. I'm all for going deeper and that's why I like strongs concordance and blue letter bible but I don't believe a new Christian should start there either. Sorry, I made some assumptions in what I thought you were hinting at.
