  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

[Luke 22:31 KJV] "And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired [to have] you, that he may sift [you] as wheat:"
[Luke 22:31 NIV] ""Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift all of you as wheat." ********* The Lord has been removed from this verse. Jesus was speaking so what was removed was that Jesus is Lord.

According to Bing AI,

Textual criticism is the scholarly discipline focused on identifying, analyzing, and reconstructing the most accurate version of a text from its surviving manuscripts and printed copies.

The excercise does not include a concerted effort to remove or hide the fact that Jesus is Lord.

It means nothing of the sort. Jesus was already speaking to the disciples there, why does he need to be reintroduced at that point in the text? You are really stretching things at this point with your KJV-onlyism, which is against the rules to promote on this site. If you want to check that rule for yourself, there is a link to the rules at the bottom of the page.

Yet again you say, "The new Bibles" when you mean "Some new Bibles." Here is Luke 22:31 in several English translations that are newer than the KJV:

NKJV
(Luk 22:31) And the Lord said, "Simon, Simon! Indeed, Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat.

WEB
(Luk 22:31) The Lord said, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have all of you, that he might sift you as wheat,

YLT
(Luk 22:31) And the Lord said, 'Simon, Simon, lo, the Adversary did ask you for himself to sift as the wheat,

CEV
(Luk 22:31) Jesus said, "Simon, listen to me! Satan has demanded the right to test each one of you, as a farmer does when he separates wheat from the husks.

Those translations which do not mention "the Lord" or "Jesus" in verse 31 do have that verse as a continuation of Jesus speaking to His disciples as He was in verses 24-25, which in the ESV say:


(Luk 22:24) A dispute also arose among them, as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest.
(Luk 22:25) And he said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those in authority over them are called benefactors.

It is just plain wrong to say that the new Bibles remove "Lord."

He couldn’t promote his KJV-onlyism if he had to admit things like that.
