Yes, the 1611 KJV was the original version as authorized by King James. So it's written with the old English spellings of the time (in the days of Geoffrey Chaucer & the Canterbury Tales era) & maybe some other slight grammatical changes. The KJV we have now is exactly the same as the 1611 version, but with the more modern spellings. But even this has now become little difficult for the 'younger set' to read. Then I would suggest the New King James Version or another related accurate rendering: the New American Standard.

If you want to try reading from the 1611 version, then click on More on the top Tab on this Site & scroll down to it.

Is the 1611translation earlier than the KJ version we have now?

When you start to fight with God by your side- from your mistakes on your body which is now taking a toll on you- is a special feeling He is helping you. Faith to start over-- and show Him how much you mean to Him-- by taking your past worldly ways and giving it to Him to help you better yourself in the ending of your Life is something to behold. Stand Strong and Fight for Yourself- - there's GOD!

People be Ready!! God is Coming!! Choose now what side you will be on. No straddling the fence. Life or death! Choose this day who you will be with!! God's Love is pulling you in....LISTEN--He is calling!!! Look at this world. Then read your Bible. ..It is real Truth!!!

A thought came to me as I read this at how long Israel laid waste basically barren, now present time, Jews who were kicked out of countries traveled to Israel to start ag. Given a land and it started to blossom. Except most of the people are still in unbelief... and a final judgement is still coming. A stiff neck people . How sad.

wow! Wow! Wow!.... Therefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; There SHALL none of my words BE PROLONGED ANY MORE, but the word which I have spoken shall be done, saith the Lord GOD.

Verse 13: King Zedekiah was blinded before he was taken to Babylon. This prophecy had a literal fulfillment in regards to the "yet shall he not see it" part of this verse.

This prophecy is concerning the Babylonian captivity. The king was carried away and his eyes plucked out by the king of Babylon. God also sent them famine and that's why it says they would eat and drink their food carefully. They had to ration it.(verse 18).

Ezekiel represent today's preacher, warning the flock of GOD. Telling them about the sins and transgression against the laws an commandments of GOD. We the church has so use to the preacher saying what thus safety the Lord, but we don't believe that it's goin to happen right then. What the Lord is telling Ezekiel to tell Israel the church if I " GOD" speak a word to the people, I'm going to do right then what I speak. No prolonging it, no putting it back.

Though the vision tarries, wait. It will come to pass. As the Lord has spoken.

Verse 12, when a pilot puts on a helmet for war he no longer relies on his eyes but instead the superior technology inside the helmet for vision and direction. A prince can represent a military leader. Weapons are borne on the shoulders or wings of an aircraft. Verse 14 may be referring to more than one aircraft in this sortie. Verse 15 may be referring to this becoming a world war where many nations join to fight. Verse 18, it is possible this is referring to nuclear contamination of food supplies or perhaps biological contamination. Food and water would have to be carefully tested for radiation or virus before it is given to eat, with trembling because if it is highly radiated or viral then just holding it is injurious to the body.

The LORD words will not come back to him void and now in these days and times we need him more than ever. Just like those days spoken of in Ezekiel, the same things are going on now with the way that people hear the words about the LORD coming back soon. Although we have heard this word for many years the Lord GOD is coming back he is right at the door. I am a true believer in the LORD and the message he delivers in the closing verse of Ezekiel 12:28 is how I feel about these last days now being revealed to us all. Revelation is being fulfilled as we breathe.

I need understanding about this chapter it came to me 3 different times i read it but i yet understand what it is trying to tell me.I need help .Iam the only one in my house that recived God as my Lord and savior.My husband need the Lord and my adult children. please help my to understand.

God led me to this verse june27th 2011 ...i did get some boxes but they were thrown away.today is 5/1/2012 i didn't have a place to move, and no money to get a place and move, need a car too. so recently i thought if i start packing that will anger him and still need the money , home, car, to move.......still i keep remembering this verse....don't know what to do...?..
"prepare thee baggage for removing and move by day in their sight; and thou shalt move from thy place to another place in their sight; it may be they will consider, though they are a rebellious house".

I find these verse's to be words from Gods own mouth on prophecy. God has said there will be no more. This alone is proof for me that todays modern day prophets, or so called prophets are false. Teaching and preaching Gods word is one thing, but prophecy is finished. Another strong example of Gods word on prophecy was spoken buy Jesus when he said, it is finished. God spoke to his people through Prophets, but they did not listen, they went after their own hearts and turned their back on God. We now have Gods very own word to use and quide us and to tell us what God desires for us, along with the Holy spirit which dwells within us, After reading these words of Ezekiel, surely one can see the danger of following todays modern day prophets.
