The Words of the LORD. ( Proverbs. 30:5) Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. (EVERY WORD OF GOD IS PURE) ( Proverbs. 30:6) Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar. (ADD THOU NOT UNTO HIS WORDS) ( Jer. 23:36) Tells us "for ye have (perverted) the words of the living God, of the LORD of hosts our God" The word (perverted) is #2015; it means to turn about or over, ((TO CHANGE)), overturn, pervert, preverse, to the contrary. Jesus tells us in ( Mt. 4:4) "It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDETH OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD" (God's Words are pure Words, not to be changed) We are told in many verses that we should not change the Words of the LORD. All modern versions have changed the Words of the LORD. The Nasb was completed in 1971. It was revised, or (changed) in 1977, again in 1995, and again in 2020! The Niv was completed in 1978. It was revised, or (changed) in 1984, and again in 2011! The Esv was revised, or (changed) 4 times in 2007, 2010, 2011, and in 2016! Does it sound like these modern version bibles are pure words inspired by God, unadulterated, uncontaminated, or sound doctrine? It doesn't sound like it to me either! It sounds like these modern versions which change their own words over and over are what we are warned about in ( 2 Tim. 4:3-4) and also in ( 1 Tim. 4:1) Modern versions are not Inspired by God! Truth matters. Blessings.

I agree Jimbob. I believe every word in God's Word is true, without error. I personally believe that as English speaking people, with an English KJV Bible, there is no need for us to learn the languages of Greek and Hebrew....the translators already did the work, and translated the Greek and Hebrew into English. God also tells us in Mark 13:

10 "And the gospel must first be published among all nations."

That would mean the gospel would be published in different languages so the people of "all nations" could read God's Word. God knew His word would be in many many different languages including English. And, God kept His Word pure.

I don't believe God expects people to know Hebrew and Greek to "really" understand and get the true meaning of His Word. He made His Word available to all. Praise the Lord! Thanks for your post Jimbob, God bless
