GOD IS MY GUIDANCE
✝️ Scripture 🕊️
I was sitting on my back porch enjoying this beautiful day. A voice, or like I usually say, God said to me Mark 4:15, please share it.
I went to a Catholic Church for 58 years. We never read the Bible or studied the Bible. I don't have verses memorized.
I have been learning through a non denominational church how to read and study the Bible.
Verse:
Mark 4:15
New International Version
15 Some people are like seed along the path, where the word is sown. As soon as they hear it, Satan comes and takes away the word that was sown in them.
How appropriate in today's world.
God Bless.
Find a different church that uses the King James version. Following the herd that are using a perverted translation will be no excuse in the eyes of God. He has been very clear about this matter. God bless you.
OK, just wanted to let you know I just ordered a KJV.
I will give it a try.
Great! Ask the Lord to help you understand it - He will. Find a church where they use only the KJV not a bunch of brain-washed lemmings that believe that the New-Age translations are no big deal. They will only drag you back into using the NIV bible because they feel nothing is wrong with it. Think for yourself - don't let their ignorance be your downfall. Eternity is a long time to be separated from the Lord. Serve Him whole-heartedly and honor Him by using an unadulterated Bible - you'll be glad you did.
Here's a little KJV-speak for you - Thou hast made a great decision today. God bless you and may He grant you clarity as you read your new KJV Bible. Stay the course.
It arrives on Sunday.
I will let you know.
My husband asked why I was changing.
I explained what I was told. He said he never heard that.
You have done a great thing for yourself and the Lord. Now honor Him by following through and reading it faithfully, asking for His guidance and clarity as you read and then try to be a blessing to others by sharing the Good News with them.
Feel free to point others to those two linked documents that I had earlier in the thread - they give a lot of the history of how the New Age translations got perverted and the second document gives a few more examples of the missing verses, phrases and words. Suffice it to say, the devil and all those that he has confused are not ever going to help you find a better relationship with the Lord. They are ignorant of what is going on around them. Don't let their ignorance be your downfall.
It would also be best to find a church that uses the KJV from its pulpit. There you will at least be surrounded by Christians that have made a conscious choice to worship the Lord with the authentic/unadulterated Word of God - that can only help you in terms of fellowship and growth in your walk with Jesus.
In the meantime, may God richly bless you and your husband. I pray that the Lord will reward your step of faith with a stronger faith and strength to follow Him in your lives.
You can always DM (direct message) me and let me know how you are doing. I will be praying for you both. God bless you.
Thank you.
