Satan is the master counterfeiter and the author of confusion. Multiple religions and bibles are made to do just that, confound the simplicity that is Christ.
“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.”
2 Corinthians 11:3 KJV
The message is clear and simple: man was created to fellowship with God but sin separated that fellowship with Adam and eve eating the fruit they were told not to.
“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:”
Romans 5:12 KJV
So from that sin onward, all men are born dead spiritually, separated from that fellowship with God. Before sin, Adam and Eve walked in the garden with God.
“for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”. Romans 3:23 KJV
“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
Romans 6:23
But God being a just God, made a way to reconnect that fellowship that was broken in the garden.
“But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
Romans 5:8
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
John 14:6
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
John 3:16
There is only one way to re-establish that connection and it is thru the death and resurrection of Jesus on the cross, A pure sinless sacrifice.
“that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
Romans 10:9
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.. Romans 10:13
Jesus is the only way, if there was anything else you could do then Jesus’ death would be in vain and not needed.
“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9
Now that the foundation / fundamentals have been discussed there are many versions of the Bible and they take and change key points and words. Some not as extreme as others but when studying the scripture it can change hidden pictures / elements. For instance in the book of Samuel some versions remove the reference man child, why is that important? Because it’s a picture of Jesus in the Old Testament small subtle changes over time pervert the pure words of the Bible. The Bible says not to change even the dots on an “I” or the line thru a “T” (jot and tittle)
If you trace versions of the Bible thru church history only one comes out of Antioch (KJV) all the others originate from Egypt (picture of the world).
