Heretical Bibles and Notes

 


The Passion Translation is one of the many newer translations of the Bible. I picked up a copy to read at a book store and read the study notes in The Masterpiece Edition (see pic above); It claimed the Seven-Fold Spirit in Revelation 1:1-4, is and I quote, “just as God is a Trinity, the Holy Spirit becomes seven, splitting into seven.” This is heresy! The Holy Spirit does not split into seven spirits! The Godhead is a Trinity of Father, Son (Jesus Christ) and The Holy Spirit! (Matthew 28:19). He does not fracture into more gods! The Seven Fold Spirit or seven spirits of God in Revelation is actually the attributes of God in the Book of Isaiah: 


“The Spirit of the LORD [1] will rest on him—the Spirit of wisdom [2] and of understanding [3], the Spirit of counsel [4] and of power [5], the Spirit of knowledge [6] and of the fear of the LORD [7].” (Isaiah 11:2). 


I am astounded how heretical teaching is now contained in Bibles at bookstores. I find even the new translations of John 3:16 very lacking in accuracy, for it use to read, “For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son and whoever believes in him shall not perish but will have eternal life.”.  It now reads “Should not perish” or “might not perish,” which in our vernacular are not absolutes like “shall not perish”, should is “it should happen,” but not guaranteed, and “might” is like maybe nowadays, as in “I might or might not do it.”. I mean they removed “begotten” from the same verse because the word changed from meaning to “send forth or come forth from” to “born or beget as in birth.” But they don’t make sure shall not perish is translated in modern tongue as “absolutely will not perish” or “most certainly will not perish.” Casting doubt on John 3:16 in these new Bible translations is an attack on the gospel. So I recommend you only use translations that say “shall not perish” and “will be saved,” in John 3:16. For these are the accurate words that bibles used for centuries! 


We must not trust Bible translation societies. Check verses carefully, for they are altering passages. Not long ago The Virgin Mary was changed to Maid Mary, one is a certain chaste woman (Virgin) as in never knowing a man sexually, while maid isn’t always a virgin. Worse they translate Jesus is Lord (Sovereign God, Jehovah) as just Master now! That is heresy! He is not just our Master! Jesus is The Sovereign God incarnate! (John 1:1-4, John 10:33, 1 John 5:20, Titus 2:13, Colossians 2:9, 2 Peter 1:1). 


I urge you to be careful. I recommend Bibles that are from 1960, 1977, 1995, 2000, and the latest 2011. The newer ones are violating The Nicene and Apostle’s Creeds, and Scripture as it has stood for ages! Beware the watering down of The Bible in our age! We must be vigilant and not let this subverting of Scripture and changing it to stand! Fight it! Amen.

Dispensationalism

John Nelson Darby (1800-1882) was a man who did two things, he took 70th week of the Book of Daniel and stretched out to the End Times, and he was the father of  Dispensationalism , a belief system that God dispenses different peoples with separate blessings and covenants. According to Darb'ys doctrine of Dispensationalism, God dispenses different covenants. There are total of seven dispensations that divide the history of man: I. Dispensation of Innocence (prior to the Fall, "Do not east of the Fruit of Good and Eve, Eden), II. Dispensation of Conscience ( You must assuage guilt and sin with blood sacrifices.) III. Dispensation of Human Government (Multiply and Subdue the world, example the Tower of Babel Gen 11:1-9, and Genesis 1:28). IV. Dispensation of the Promise (Dwell in Canaan, Jerusalem) V. Dispensation of the Law ("Obey the Law of Moses and the Prophets"). VI. Dispensation of Grace (The Church, Jesus Christ has come...

Jesus’ Name in Aramaic

There has been a trend to render Jesus’ name Hebrew, יֵשׁוּעַ , Yeshua. The problem is neither Christ nor his apostles, nor the Jews in 30-33 A.D. spoke Hebrew, they spoke Aramaic. A ramaic is the oldest language on earth and was the language Jesus spoke. In fact, the oldest Old Testament is the Septuagint a Greco translation around 132 B.C.E. (165 Years Before Christ)that was translated from Aramaic. The Masoretic Text, The Hebrew Old Testament most Bibles use, dates from 7th to 10th Century A.D. (Medieval Times).  This translation does not cross reference with the words of Christ in the New Testament which are Aramaic and Koine Greek.  If the Aramaic was what Jesus spoke, then by what name would have been called? Jesus’ name in Aramaic is Isho or Eesho, spelled ܝܫܘܥ . That is the name of our Lord in Aramaic! He would have heard his name in this dialect, “Hail Isho or Eesho!” as well as the Greek, Ἰ ησο ῦ ς , Iesous.  Aramaic is disappearing, only a few peop...

Concerns About The Jerusalem Cross

  When you travel to Jerusalem, it is the custom of a pilgrim to by a Jerusalem Cross as souvenir. Its suppose to represent Jerusalem, and Christianity there. Even Protestant brothers and sisters have adopted the Jerusalem Cross symbol as a missionary symbol, the four extra crosses being to four corners of the world, “And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.” (Matthew 24:31). The problem is that the Jerusalem Cross has a very dark history spiritually. Yes it was used like French Cross as a counter to Nazi swastika during the 1940’s which is ironic since one variant of Cross Potent which is in the Jerusalem Cross was a swastika called the grammadion which was a talisman for luck and good fortune: My greater concern is the crusader theology tied to the Jerusalem Cross. The Jerusalem Cross as we know it was created when the Kingdom of Jerusalem was formed during The Fi...
