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.

The Potrait of Jesus: What Christ Looked Like

What was Jesus’s appearance? Pseudo-historians at National Geographic and other publications argue that Jesus’ humanity was of Arab or African descent. This is impossible because Jesus our God was Son of David according to His flesh, “He promised beforehand through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures, regarding His Son, who was a descendant of David according to the flesh, and who through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the Son of God by His resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord (God),” (Romans 1:2-4), and King David was described as the following, “So he sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy [red, ruddy, from the word admowniy {ad-mo-nee'}; from 'adam ; reddish of the hair or the complexion red, ruddy], with beautiful eyes and a handsome appearance. And the LORD said, "Arise, anoint him; for this is he. So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and from that day on the Spirit of the LORD came ...

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...

Orthodox Christianity and Messianic Judaism

There is a divide between the two sides of Christianity. One is lined by a rosary, the other with tallit (prayer shawl). In the west we tend to come from a Greco-Roman understanding of The Bible and Jesus Christ. We are saturated with images of the Crucifixion and see through the red lens of Calvary. Now The Messianic or Jewish perspective is becoming more prevalent as people begin to study the roots of the Christian faith. After all, Jesus was a Jew and his Twelve Disciples were all Jews of different sects and positions in society. By studying the Jewish roots of Jesus we come to understand the ancient customs, practices, rites, and traditions that are featured in the Old and New Testaments. We learn in Jewish tradition that a Rabbi had to be ordained by two rabbis and that when Jesus was asked, "by who's authority do you say these things?, (Luke 20:2)" the Pharisees were asking who had ordained Jesus and where he got his yoke (teachings), and Jesus responds, "wh...
