    Should the Bible say "Lucifer" or "morning star" in Isaiah 14:12? A Plain, Straightforward Bible Treatment of "LUCIFER" in Isaiah 14:12.

    This is what Keil and Delitzsch Biblical Commentary on the Old Testament; says; I emphasize some points of theirs in blue and my comments are in green; "How art thou fallen from the sky, thou star of light, sun of the dawn, hurled down to the earth, thou that didst throw down nations from...

    Do You Know the Baptist Distinctives?

    I know this is random, but if we ventured to wonder about the probabilities that Calvin just tore into a bunch of blank paper, from scratch, and pumped out a truckload of astoundingly voluminous collection, which became his Institutes, or about how far a stretch we would have to make to assume...

    Should the Bible say "Lucifer" or "morning star" in Isaiah 14:12? A Plain, Straightforward Bible Treatment of "LUCIFER" in Isaiah 14:12.

    Besides; We have Pre-Vulgate usages, where Pre-Vulgate Vetus Latina (Old Latin) manuscripts use the word "Lucifer" at Isaiah; who found an online copy of the VL (Gryson, 1949). Gryson provides two variants of the line (the first in African readings, the second European ones) [African]...

    Should the Bible say "Lucifer" or "morning star" in Isaiah 14:12? A Plain, Straightforward Bible Treatment of "LUCIFER" in Isaiah 14:12.

    "The morning star (a celestial body), Lucifer (a light-barer), Venus (feminine); the star (not in the text) (which is a foreshadowing of the sun's light, with the sun's light being the only light generated, apart from a little speck in the night sky, of Venus) which precedes the morning light...

    Should the Bible say "Lucifer" or "morning star" in Isaiah 14:12? A Plain, Straightforward Bible Treatment of "LUCIFER" in Isaiah 14:12.

    There is a leap there, inspired by the influences of Mythology outside the Bible and I happen to believe that was a wrong uninspired stretch. Actually, a lot of the KJV was based on the Geneva Bible and this is the more probable reason for keeping it. The book of Isaiah has two sources the...

    Should the Bible say "Lucifer" or "morning star" in Isaiah 14:12? A Plain, Straightforward Bible Treatment of "LUCIFER" in Isaiah 14:12.

    "Scripture itself is the final judge; we may not go beyond what is written and with the Spirit's decision in Scripture, we are to be content. Luther summed up the difference between the Reformation and the Renaissance nicely when he said once to the great scholar Erasmus; "The difference...

    The Historic Beliefs of the Baptists Reduced Down to Three Distinctive Doctrines, under THE LORDSHIP of CHRIST.

    II. "Individual Responsibility To God For The Performance Of Duty". A. "Individual responsibility separates the individual from family, friends, and government. "It brings him face to face with God, his Maker/Creator. If there is anything clear in the Bible it is this: “I am...

    The Historic Beliefs of the Baptists Reduced Down to Three Distinctive Doctrines, under THE LORDSHIP of CHRIST.

    Excerpts from: Historic Beliefs of the Baptists. "The only thing we, as Historically Baptist Believers, can profess is what we have obtained under The Lordship of Christ. "There are thousands of congregations that call themselves Baptists. Each one considers itself one of the Lord's churches...

    From "Answers To Your Bible Version Questions"© 2002 by David W. Daniels. "Question: Should the Bible say "Lucifer" or "morning star" in Isaiah 14:12? And does it refer to Satan? "Answer: The King James Bible is correct. Although "Lucifer" is the Latin version of the name, the passage is...

    Was the Nkjv translated from same sorce texts as used by the 1611 translators for Kjv then?

    I have often wondered why you don't know anything about what you try to claim. Stop saying, "the NKJV was based on the same multiple original-language texts of Scripture as the KJV is". That is an incredibly uneducated thing to say. The New King James Version is not a true King James Bible...

    Calvin denied Lucifer is Satan

    Yes, he does. The King of Babylon is the Interpretation about who, in actual time and space, is being addressed, the way the hearers of the Word would have understood it to mean, at that time. Then, with all the parallels which are reminiscent of Satan, we have the King as 'the antitype of the...

    Was the Nkjv translated from same sorce texts as used by the 1611 translators for Kjv then?

    There is no dier need to suggest the KJV requires any additions or deletions, and in that sense it has been produced as a complete work of literature that is more perfect than is humanly possible. The idea that "the KJV" IS "ONE SINGLE PERFECT ENGLISH BIBLE" does need some qualification...

    Was the Nkjv translated from same sorce texts as used by the 1611 translators for Kjv then?

    This has not proven to be the case, whatsoever. Non-issue. It's called, 'translating'. Dead-issue, since that day. You should really study it out and learn "The NKJV's NT is translated from an edition of the Greek Textus Receptus" is not something anyone needs to try and advance as if it is...
