Friends, until recently, I have been using the NIV version since I remember and I thought it was a good translation. But I have stumbled across a NIV challenge test to test the NIV against the KJV. And I made a startling discovery - the NIV has made ommisions to the Word of God. Take the test to find out. It would be better if you had a KJV to counter check. Here are sample questions:
[line]Fill in the missing words in Matthew 5:44. "Love your enemies,__________ them that curse you, ______________ to them that hate you, and pray for them that __________ and persecute you."
My NIV says, "But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you that you may be sons of your Father in heaven". But my KJV says, "But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;"
[line]Another question taken from my source website: Revelation 1:11 is another very important verse that proves the deity of Christ. In the first part of this verse Jesus said, "I am the A______________ and O___________, the _________ and the _______:"
The NIV would say, "which said: "Write on a scroll what you see and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea.". But my KJV says, "Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, what thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamum (I am uncertain of this spelling), and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.".
[line]Here is my source Click Here. A related site which says Why You Should Use the KJV - Click Here. Dear friends, are you using a 'watered down' version of the Bible? Because if every new translation omits a few words here and there, it wouldn't be long before the Bible is totally corrupted. Its part of Satan's ploy. Don't fall for it!
