No version in English is the word of God. THe only ones that are the word of God are the original Greek and Hebrew. All others are translations of the Word of God.
I can't believe some of the stuff I'm reading on here. You must be kidding?? You are calling God a liar and don't even realize it! Psalms 12:6-7 Says, The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever. Either we have God's Words or we don't. If we don't have them, then God is a liar. Are you calling God a liar? Romans 3:4 let God be true, but every man a liar;
Why would God not want us to have His Words? Why would God give us His Words in Greek and Hebrew, and then just let them disappear? If we have no final authority (God's Words), then we could just do whatever we wanted. If we don't have God's Words, then how do we know we are even saved?
Just stop and think about this for a few minutes. It doesn't make any sense, even if you don't study this thing out, it doesn't make any common sense. Why would God give us His Words and then take them away from us? Why would God not want us to be 100% sure of what He wants from us?
