Who Is the Giver of Life By KJV Scripture?

[Yeshua1]

Since the NASB's New Testament is built on the "Critical Text" in the Greek,
and the "KJV"s New Testament is built upon the "Received Text" in the Greek,
then they are not ( and never will be ) in any way "equal" in their manuscript bases ( nor in their authority ), my friend.

Two differing collated Greek textual manuscript bases cannot both be equal...it is a literal impossibility.
Therefore, the two translations are in no way equal, as their equality is based on a complete 1-to-1 agreement in Greek words, which does not exist.

One is better, and one is worse;
Depending on which perspective one holds about the manuscripts that were used during their translation.

One is corrupt, and one is faithful...
One is the word of God and one contains the words of God;
Again, depending on which "foundation" the work was performed from, and which set of Greek and Hebrew / Aramaic texts one considers to be the actual preserved word of God in the original languages.

Amen, and I agree wholeheartedly with you here.

The 'received text" was not inspired, nor actually said to be superior!

 

[Yeshua1]

Do you agree for why the lost books are not in the Bible because of them going against what is written in the accepted scripture of the Bible?

Then what happens when the KJV disagree with the NIV or vice versa?

Did you know that there are some believers that believe they are in the process of being saved as in they are not saved yet? Catholics believes this; there are others though. Here is why.

1 Corinthians 1:18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. NIV

1 Corinthians 1:21 For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. NIV

Here is the KJV below.

1 Corinthians 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God..... 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. KJV

I know only God can help them see the truth in His words as kept in the KJV, but the NIV supports their false teachings that they are in the process of being saved. No matter how hard you point to verse 21 in the NIV, just because verse 18 is written the way that it is, they have doubt in His words that they are saved.

That is why I prefer to rely only on the KJV because the truth lines up verse 18 with verse 21 & along with the rest of scripture that we are saved when we had come to & believed in Jesus Christ. Something to pray about, brother.

Do you know that the Nas asserts the Deity of Lord Jesus even more so then the Kjv?

 

[Yeshua1]

My eyesight is getting bad. I read that as NIV rather than NASB The NASB still reads the same as the NIV.

1 Corinthians 1:18 For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 21 For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not come to know God, God was pleased through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe. NASB

1 Corinthians 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God...21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. KJV

To correct false teachings, I find I need the KJV as holding the meat of His words as verse 18 does not oppose verse 21 whereas verse 18 in the NASB will sow doubts in His words towards verse 21 & other scripture as well.

Of course, with all that anti-KJV Onlyism prejudices out there, getting believers that err to rely only on the KJV to discern good & evil by it is on God to lead them to do..

The Nas is better then the Kjv!

Do you know that the Nas asserts the Deity of Lord Jesus even more so then the Kjv?

Did you know that scripture goes against scripture in the NAS thus sowing doubts in His words to not be certain of the truth in His words but not in the KJV? That is why I rely only on the KJV for the meat in His words to discern good & evil with Him as my Good Shepherd as scripture lines up with scripture in the KJV.

The Nas is better then the Kjv!

I had used the NAS in my high school years & it kept me astray in supporting my doing the best I can in following Him by my religious flesh of keeping that commitment to make Jesus Lord of my life.

There was one time I had thought it was wrong to be angry per Matthew 5:22 in the NASB

Matthew 5:22 But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be answerable to the court; and whoever says to his brother, ‘You good-for-nothing,’ shall be answerable to the supreme court; and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell. NASB

Matthew 5:22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. KJV

Even though Paul says in both Bible version that it was okay to be angry but do not sin.

Ephesians 4:26 Be angry, and yet do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, NASB

Ephesians 4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: KJV

I picked up some passing heresy that Paul was a false apostle which could have strengthened that false notion that it was a sin for me to be angry. but I was not confronted with that issue in seeing the Lord reprove that for me by the scripture until later, but the Sunday school teacher tried to correct me by showing it in Ephesians 4:26 that it was okay to be angry but do not sin. It may have been a glancing thought about Paul, but because Jesus said it, I was playing it safe to ignore Paul's words & continued to believe it was a sin to be angry. When the Lord led me to the KJV for reproofs for a lot of false beliefs than just that one.

Only the Lord can lead you to value the KJV for the meat of His words over the NASB. I cannot convince you. I'd rather have the truths line up in scripture as the KJV has done to reprove good & evil from it with the Lord's help as my Good Shepherd than the NASB or any other modern Bible.

When you consider the many verses over the few verses where the debate is about whether or not the spirit should be capitalized, then I would rather give the credit & glory of the title of the Giver of Life to the Son & I believe scripture ( John 5:39-40 ) & the indwelling Holy Spirit would too ( John 16:14 ).
