THANK YOU for the list
I always heard that the NIV is not a good translation.
@@debbie94510 I am not a fan of the NIV. It is inconsistent with certain Greek terms. Not the worst one ever, but I cannot recommend it.
Thanks for saving me nearly half an hour! 🙂
Brilliant thank you
I just found your channel and this is the first video I watched. Speaking for myself, I love the long studies. I will watch much more of your videos. God bless you for what you do in teaching the true word of God. I have always stood on the last verses of Revelations in that you can't add or take away from the Bible. Thank you Lord for letting me find this channel.
Finding this channel was not an accident! I have been guilty of watching TV for hours and then wondering why I am spiritually dry! You think I know better..God is truly a loving father who saw what was going on in my life and us correcting it. God bless you!
I love my KJV and I will never exchange it for any version. I understand every word of God in it although english is not my native tongue. I always pray for God's Holy Spirit to guide me when reading it.
Amen, if you’ve accepted Jesus as your King and Savior, which I believe you have, then the Holy Spirit lives in you and will teach you all things concerning God,Jesus His Son and the Holy Spirit. Even if the Bible was removed from us by governments or whoever, the Holy Spirit would still teach us because we are God’s Children and He won’t leave His Children without His Word and Truth. In short, if the Spirit of God, the Spirit of Truth, the Holy Spirit lives in you, then the Truth of God and the Word of God lives in you. When you read your Bible, you are focusing your attention on God and when that happens, God’s Holy Spirit starts bringing up from within you the Truth of God, this is also true when you pray and are focusing on God at other times as well. God can never be taken away, isn’t that awesome! Rev. Daryl Drennan
@@daryldrennan Amen! The Holy Spirit is our Comforter.
You can love your KJV, but be aware that 17th century scholarship was inaccurate in several places. That was not the translator's fault. The did the best they could with the manuscripts they had to work with. Read the New King James Version (NKJV) where the beauty of the KJV is largely retained, but the translation is accurate.
Diabolical Doctrine: The King James Version Is the Perfect Word of God
Anything in the King James that is in italics has been ADDED to the scriptures. If you add to God's Word then it no longer becomes God's Word. Just as Eve added to the Word it looses it power and authority.
I'm Sticking With My KJV Bible And Strong's Concordance! Amen And Shalom.‼️✝️🛐✝️🛐💪💪💪📛🕊️🕊️🕊️✨👑✨🤰🤱🧬🤰🤱😇🌟🤗🌺🌺🌺💞💓💕💖🕯️💖🕯️💖🕯️😘😍🥰❤️❣️💯🌹🌹🌹🙏🙏🙏🇨🇦🇮🇱🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🗽🦅‼️
Always believe the KJV over the strongs.
AMEN!!! I'll take listening to the Holy Spirit over the so called experts. God said we would have delusion and great deception in the last days, not the new improved.
I was raised on kjv and all thru college, I read this version til it fell apart. Love it so much, and still use this version today! I have a great affection for my Bible and love having it near me!❤
Earlier this week I received my newest purchase from the KJV store. A 1611 KING JAMES BIBLE. Same size and everything. Weighs over thirty pounds. Some of the cars I've owned didn't cost as much as this book. I couldn't care less what any detractor thinks of that.
Thank you Tiff..You are always a wealth of knowledge and teaching✝️
I love the King James Version. I love the “ thee, thou, thy , thine”. etc, These words are not commonly used in everyday language. I love that !
@eileen. I love the 1611 King James Authorized Version of God's Holy Word the Bible because it's the ONLY version that is inerrant and infallible. It's also much easier to read than the so-called modern versions of God's Holy Word the Bible.
Amen from taiwan 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
eileendunkle • I prefer the Douay-Rheims Bible. It is a few years older than the KJV, but a lot of the KJV contains exact passages taken from the DRB. It has thee and thou, but I love it. Also the (New) and older Jerusalem Bible are very beautifully written. I have never heard a word said against any of these.
Good luck.
@@lynettepalecek3141 Who told you it is inerrant and infallible? Because nothing except God alone is those 2 things. Don't get caught in that trap.
As I said, my Bible is a little older than KJV, and entire passages taken from it are printed word for word in the KJV.
So I guess mine is inerrant and infallible too?
I find KJV scripture much easier to memorize. Also, I hear God's 'tone' when I read it. I have the L B Paraphrased, and use it like a commentary
I only read and study from the KJV Bible. It's what I cut my teeth on many moons ago. I have no problem reading and understanding Elizabethan English. If I do come across a word I'm not familiar with, I look it up and research it.
Amen!
@Warrior. GOOD FOR YOU!! The KJV Bible is the ONLY version I rely on to tell the truth. It's the ONLY version of God's Holy Word the Bible that is inerrant and infallible.
Me too! It gives you alot of indepthness too when studing. When you are looking up words. I love it!! 🙌🏻
I enjoy the (Authorized) KJV because it is easier for me to memorize chapters of PSALMS and verses from both the OT and NT. I have a "toolbox" of around 100 or so scriptures in my head that are used on a regular basis. The Amplified , NKJV, NIV, ESV, and the NET are useful references. I find that cross referencing with these versions are more helpful for learning scripture explanation than commentaries.
I could sit under this man as Pastor, and listen for many years to his sermons. great list sir.
I have shared your concerns for some time already and am glad that you have addressed these issues. Thank you sir for pointing these things out!
Amen! I LOVE LOVE the longer videos. Get so much more from it. And love the great details you give. 🎉❤
Why should one think that your god performed the miracle of inspiring the words of the bible if he didn’t perform the miracle of preserving the words of the bible?
For brevity's sake, here is the list of the five bibles in question: The Message, The Passion Bible, The Living Bible, The Good News Bible, and the Contemporary English Version.
Thank you
Thank you for listing the 5 translations to avoid. What do you think about the accuracy of thought for thought versions such as NLT? Personally I think word for word is much more accurate.
@@paulajohnson6409 The NLT is a great resource and it is the Bible I often give away to new believers and teach from when talking to young people. I have never done an in-depth verse-by-verse comparison, but the people that have that I trust say that the overwhelming majority of the choices they made in translation were good. The NLT is not a word for word. It is a functional equivalent with a bias toward being much easier to read, and it might seem to cross into a paraphrase category for some people. It is not among my normal personal study translations, but I started in the KJV 40 years ago. Sometimes the language in the NLT is so new it distracts me, so I use the ESV.
Don’t forget NIV, ESV. NLT, NKJV, there is only ONE BIBLE to read. The King James Bible
@@Siaya7 So if you read in another language, you are out of luck? Also, God's promises are bigger than a single translation. He promises if we seek Him, we will find Him in Matthew 7:7-8. There are other well-known verses like Jer 33:3, Isa 55:11, John 16:13, and Rev 3:20 that make similar promises. Tell me, in the KJV, which I know pretty well, where does it say to only read the KJV? Where does it say the Holy Spirit only works if we stay with versions translated from the Textus Receptus? My God is bigger than a single translation. My God planned to have His Word translated many many times over the years into languages that spread It all over the globe (Isa 55:11). The Bible warns us against pharisaical religious requirements and burdening believers with tradition in Matthew 16:6-12 & Acts 15:5-31. In Matthew 23, Jesus warns us against religious elitism, like, "Look at me, I am better than other Christians because I read the KJV." I am not accusing you of this, but be careful. I assume since you have decided the KJV is the only Bible a person can read you might be familiar with the hymn, "Have Faith in God." Put your faith in Him, not the KJV which history tells us had some outside influences while being translated. I am not knocking the KJV, it was my translation of choice for close to three decades. God is bigger than the debate of Textus Receptus vs Critical Text, trust HIM!
In my prayer and reading, I use the NKJV and I am quite comfortable with it, but recently I have been listening to an audio bible on youtube while on walks or driving etc. When I saw your video I looked up the version that I have been listening to and sure enough it is the Contemporary English Audio Bible, and that was No 5 on your list. Thank you for setting me straight.
The NKJ version is also a bad one. The old KJ version is better
I too use the kjv and other so called Bibles are incorrect and the niv is poision!
That's not just Tiff who set you straight, it was the Holy Spirit within you who lead you to him. As it says in scripture, "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you." (John 14:26). He's called the "Spirit of Truth" for a reason. He will never allow you to continue listening to, believing, or practicing a lie.
Thank you for this sermon. I wholeheartedly agree with what you said. I know from personal experience that the study of the King James Version of the Bible brings conviction of sin. It happened to me.
So you should be convicted of your sin, that’s what we read the Bible for. We need to see the truth and know that we cannot live anyway that we want, and serve God too.
The Holy Spirit is the one who convicted!
Sorry sir. Revelation 22 : 18 and 19 refers only to Revelation. THIS BOOK. Not THE BOOK.
Another beautiful teaching... blessings my Brother... love you.... Holiness unto the Lord... May His name be praised....
I love your ministry God bless you brother 🙏
Thank you for the golden information you shared to us about so manybible translations this information is a great eye- opener for me
Thank you Mr. Shuttlesworth for providing us these valuable videos. God Bless
I listen to your message often, thanks for sharing.
I love the longer videos. You can't gain the correct information unless you put the time and energy into the teachings!
Thank you for taking your time and doing real teachings 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you Tiff.This is good to know.I have the good Bibles,that you mentioned.And I read my Bible everyday.Blessings.
Great message on truth or deceiving translation of the Bible. I agree on your translation of truth and error! Thank you 🙏🏻 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
The last few months I have been slowly studying and idk what happened but suddenly I have gotten kicked into overdrive. I have recently started reading more plus reading bible stories to my children. I appreciate this video because I want to teach my kids the best I can.
…nor do you have to apologize. I LOVE and APPRECIATE your thoroughness!! WOW, I feel like this time was very well invested and your hard work is appreciated & noticed. Thank you 🙏🏻! New Christian in the making and loving having found the Lord.
That’s the reason you are my favourite pastor to learn from; you take the time. When I sit to listen to you I prepare for the time❤🙏🏽
Thank you 💓
You will absolutely love my videos on prophet Bradley U-tube!
I'm always looking forward to hearing and watching your teachings of the word of God 😊🙏
You will absolutely love my videos on prophet Bradley U-tube
This is a great and recommendable work. Thank you sir.God bless you.
I like the Good News version the most because it's clear to understand ; sometimes looking at Finnish and French translations show how everything looks like in other languages . It's interesting to learn about translation mistakes .
I was interviewed for television once, about thirty years ago, and was asked about translations. I said that many of them were fraudulent for profit. The director chopped my comment out of the program. I am so glad to find you a kindred spirit, with the courage to say what I tried to say then. Thank you for your knowledgable, honest and passionate defense of the authentic text which is our heritage from the Holy Spirit. May God reward you now and forever.
This may sound a tad odd to the uninformed, but Christians need to be more shrewd. Had you said that many of the translations were _less than accurate_ instead of fraudulent, the director probably wouldn't have chopped your comment. Of course, "less than accurate" would've been less accurate than "fraudulent" but it would've achieved the purpose. 😉
I would appreciate if u just mention immediately what biblical translation versions u would Not recommend for us 2 read instead of spending a lot of your time in discussing other insignificant issues 2 avoid wastage of your viewers' time in listening n watching u.Tnx.
So Christians say the Bible is the Word of God ? God has left a book for the salvation of souls yet the Bible can be falsified. Did an all knowing God not know that the book would be changed. The Jews changed the Old Testament on a few occasions They removed MacCabees and other books and Luther followed. Today the Jews are happy to talk of MacCabees.
@@huntongchee4158 He actually said not to even read the NWT, however i regard the NWT to be the most accurate translation.
@@lawrencedavidson6195NWT accurate? Why? Can you point to any verse where it is more accurate than any modern translation?
Good message and information as I wondered what Bibles were the best. I became a Believer in 1973 and yes I had a Living Bible but the Lord guided me to other ones as I grew spiritually which was a good thing but for along time I had no one living in my life, family, close friend or neighbour to talk about scriptures only a mentor across the other side of Canada which we had no internet at that time so seldom communicated but I thank God we have faithfully been able to since our iPads and she is in her nineties. God kept me faithful for 50 years next month, through thick and thin, divorce, financial hardships, a son presently with cancer, waiting for prayers to be answered for a saved family but in Gods time. I thank all the American ministries who has helped me over the years as I have had good ones, Billy Graham, Charles Stanley, Christ in Prophecy and more as well as yours the last two years also a trip to Israel where I got baptized after waiting 38 years. We all have a testimony and story but it is not I but the Lord who has brought me this far, waiting for family to be saved and the Lords coming. Blessings and thank you.
Thank you for that valuable information. My first special big Bible was the NIV and I believe that was in the early 80s and it has had to be replaced once or twice but the last NIV I bought was a very large print study Bible, with lots of pictures but I really don’t care for the wording at all so I dug around in my Bible collection and lo and behold found two Charles Stanley NASB bibles. The older one is life application and the newer one is the Life Principles bible. I like the older one The best.
Praying for you and you son and family.
Thank you!!
I'm Jerusalem Bible Study Edition. Accurate,, up to date with scholarship and the notes are superb for a single volume, giving even where the different sources of the Pentateuch begin and end for example.
I prefer my KJV (King James Version) of the Bible. I will always go for it .
Thank you, Reverend Shuttlesworth, for this valuable information. A little omission or twist and people can miss the mark. A pilot once said deviating from the route by 5 degree can mean about 150 miles away from destination.
I grew up with the King James Version. When I was a kid at Bible camp, I remember a counselor saying, "Don't let a few 'thee's and thou's keep you out of heaven."
, "Don't let a few 'thee's and thou's keep you out of heaven." The ESV and NIV identify Jesus as God in Romans 9:5 where as the KJV doesn't. To name a few
@@againstthepope2362 Unlike the KJV, the ESV and the NIV, and as far as I can tell, all modern bibles rob Jesus of his deity in Philippians 2:6.
@@PlaidRicky1611 this ia a foot note off The Net Bible Translators notes in regard to Phil 2:6 '' The Greek term translated form indicates a correspondence with reality. Thus the meaning of this phrase is that Christ was truly God.'' So, KJV or any other version say the same thing, its just worded slightly different. The word ''robbery '' in greek is ἁρπαγμός (harpagmos) 'something to grasp' (G0725). I believe the NIV translates it best (NIV) who, being in very nature ▼God,
did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;. And verse 7 drives it home
@@againstthepope2362 You're wrong!!
@againstthepope2362 You can't leave out God's Holy name in Philippians 2:6. When you do that, then you're corrupting God's Holy Word the Bible! Shame on you for doing that!! "Correspondence with reality" is definitely NOT the same thing as "God!" Btw, you're wrong about Romans 9:5. The KJV does make it clear that Christ is God. You're just too stupid to understand how to read that version of the Holy Bible.
Thank you so much! This information is very helpful.
Great message. Bless you.
KJV Only for me thank you very much :) The Ye's, Thou's, Thines are very important and they are not hard to understand. They give the proper context to the verses and tell you exactly who God is speaking to. I understand the scriptures by the Holy Spirit, not by my own understanding.
Idk why you think they're important, lol. But I love the KJV too, & as a teenager with no knowledge of the Bible at all I had no problem understanding what I needed to. As I grew I learned how to look things up & my mom got me a Strongs Exhaustive Concordance, & I've loved it. You can't learn the original language meanings from other versions. I think that alone sets the KJV above the rest.
1Cor.2
[13] Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. - The scriputures themselves are spiritual and the Holy Ghost can teach you thru them.
May this message richly bless you and yours as it has bless me.
Many profess believers of Jesus Christ believe that the fourth commandment to keep the Sabbath holy was nailed to the cross and that we no longer have to keep it, while still embracing the other nine commands. Do you believe this?
Ask yourself this question: which one or ones of the following Ten Commandments do Jesus wants us to keep and obey?
1. Thou shalt not have no other gods before me.
2. Thou shalt not make or bow down to gpl raven image.
3. Thou shalt not take the name of God in vain.
4. Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy.
5. Honor thy father and thy mother.
6. Thou shalt not kill.
7. Thou shalt not commit adultery.
8. Thou shalt not steal.
9. Thou shalt not bear false witness.
10. Thou shalt not covet.
Answer_________________
The Sabbath command is not only to be kept but it is to be calculated by the Time/calendar God ordained in the beginning of creation, Genesis 1:14. The sun, moon and stars are God’s True Time/calendar not that famous Gregorian calendar hanging on our walls in our houses. The Sabbath is calculated by the sun, moon and stars.
This split in God’s law must be repaired!! All of God’s laws, statutes, judgments and testimonies are just and true! We must do things God’s way or else we will be worshipping him in vain. There will be no good reward.
God may allow the people that rules this world to enforce some type of Sabbath law to test people to see if they will keep His law or no.
Already, there are Sabbath laws/blue laws/Sunday laws on government books today.
Friday is not the true Sabbath. Saturday is not the true Sabbath. Sunday is not the true Sabbath, etc., because they are calculated by man’s time/calendars.
This information is helpful both now and future, to get back to God’s ways and be able to choose wisely if such a “Sabbath Test” is enforced.
Let us read our Bibles, seriously repent of our evil ways, stop worshiping other gods, talking about one another, stealing, killing, lying, fornicating, adultery, disobedient to parents, etc., etc., etc.
Worship Him that made heaven, earth and sea. This Babylonian system is falling, the Powers in charge are aware of this fact but they cannot stop it. Their time is coming to an end! Our time is coming to an end!
If any worship the beast and his image and receive his mark, the same shall have no rest day or night and they shall be burnt with fire and brimstone. Revelation 13 and 14. Deuteronomy 5 Isaiah 58:12-14.
Also, research the “Seven Noahide Laws.” I have heard that these are Jewish laws taken from their book, “Talmud.” The first law forbids idolatry and according to Jewish writings, to believe in Jesus Christ, God’s Son, is idolatry and is punishable by death, decapitation. I have also heard that some of the USA presidents have signed this law under “Proclamation 5956-. Education Day, U.S.A, 1989 and 1990” and, word is that, it is planned to be unleashed on all nations in the future. So, Research and see if these things be truth.
May The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
@Mumzy. I agree with you completely!!
@@tims.449 THAT'S EXACTLY CORRECT!!!
I LOVE KING JAMES VERSION!!!!
What did the Apostles think of it?
@vonhalberstadt3590 what a dishonest question, that reveals your heart. We have the very word in the king James Bible that they had.God promised to preserve them. We have them in English today in THE KING JAMES BIBLE. ALL AUTHORITY WORD OF GOD
@robcrobert the NASB is more accurate.
@johnmabbett6586 Really? I'll give you a sample. NASB1995
But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before the court; and whoever says to his brother, ‘You good-for-nothing,’ shall be guilty before the supreme court; and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell.
The word of God says it differently
(Matthew 5:22 KJB
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.
Notice nasb omitted without a cause. The nasb makes Jesus a sinner by omitting without a cause. Why ? Because Jesus was angry when he drove out the money changers. I could give you many many examples of errors in the nasb. Do you want to compare it with God's word?
I love the K.J.V. is the best translation of from the Hebrew Aramaic and Greek.
This teaching is absolutely critical to all Christians. You spoken words are absolutely truth. A topic I consistently preach and reaffirm. God bless you.
Thank you, your teachings always inspire. May God keep you, may He bless you and yours, and Lost Lamb Ministry. So happy I got to know you all! 😁
Bro. Tiff, I’m gleaning from EVERY word. Hallelujah!
I just found your channel and am enjoying the teachings
Thank you very much for this study!
I only read and study the Authorized King James Bible. I consider it the authority on ALL matters, and respect no other translations. Modern perversions have changed, added and deleted entire words and verses. Rev 22 says anyone who does this will have their names removed from the Book of Life, not the tree of life. I believe having all these Bible perversions allows people to search until they find one that says what they want it to say. I don’t like that at all. How can we all be on the same page, if we’re not even on the same book?
Recently I have come to understand how lucky I’ve been. My uncle put notes in my New American Standard in the places he and his colleagues believed to be less then correct. He translated both first century Hebrew and Greek. Uncle Robert also gently taught me from his Hebrew and Greek books until I was twelve. Even then I knew what a gift that was.
...Believed to be less than... Not, "then". Sounds like your uncle was a good man.
@@fredthe47th Thank you for your comment, and I apologize for my 'unfortunately' worded statement. Grow up.
@edwardpearce9668 Don't feel bad for you choice of words, everybody could understand what you meant. By the way, "unfortunate" would be as wrong as "lucky" according to @fredthe47th 's. narrow criteria. This reminds me of 1st Timothy 6:4. "He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings". God bless 🙂
Luck is superstition which is sorcery which is witchcraft that is evil and if Satan
God is Sovereign - there is NO luck in Him
He is the truth - it’s who He IS
💖👑
@@fredthe47thUsing the word "lucky" does not always imply paganism. As I've gotten older, I've seen God's providence in what appears to be good luck. It is often unwise to jump to conclusions.
Thank you so much. I’m just listening to you for the first time. I wholeheartedly agree with you in this expository teaching. I love NKJV AND NLT. I will try and get NASB. God bless you sir!
Thankyou ! Very informative and people are lacking knowledge in spiritual things and the Word of God.
Thank you Tiff for your time and great care on this subject. I own KJV, ESV, NASB. Of which I have always preferred the NASB. This is not the first time I've heard it said that the NASB is arguably the most accurate translation. In fact I'm getting ready to order a new Bible in NASB 1995 edition in goatskin. I wanted a more handy carry size to transport with me everywhere I go. I cherish God's Holy Word and study to show myself approved a workman that needs not be ashamed rightly dividing the word of truth. Thank you for you ministry. May our Savior and Lord continue to bless your ministry as you work for His Kingdom.
Thank you. Your 3 Bibles are what I have and believe Christians would be very well taken care of spiritually if they had these three. When I became a believer in Christ, in the triune God, I had a King James Bible, simply a text Bible, later I did get a good King James Reference Bible that I still have.
I believe we have too many Bibles and the many that are not true translations are not good as I see it. I love the King James, so readable, published at a time when English was at its best...such common, easy to understand wording, easy to memorize too. I read through it many times, maybe 20 times and that besides using it at church, studying, etc. Last, I saw other "translations" suddenly flooding the market place and I bought & read the Modern Language Bible (also called, The New Berkely Translation by Gerrit Verkuyle(?) and I liked it except for a disturbing verses that showed me, I believe, what I am sure is a strong Arminianism...being a Baptist-Reformed, in the tradition of Spurgeon, etc, I stayed with my reliable, most beautiful translation...King James...and finally though I read through the RSV, King James I said before, I discovered the most accurate translation, the ASV, later revised only a little, called the NASB.
I must stop here but I came upon the ESV, which, to me, is the "real King James the 2nd."
Thus, I have the 3 dependable ones as you do. ESV is very readable and I read through it, use it a lot, I use NASB too and love it. Excuse the long ramble but naturally a fellow believer may behave this way! Best, w
If you agree with Tiff’s recommendation, can you explain why Matthew 17:21 is not found in the NASB? So removing verses is the new definition of being accurate?
Thank you. I appreciate the information. The NLT is so easy to read and understand.
My NASB has Mathew 17:21. Yours should.
The NASB is not most accurate.
ThxBro Tiff. I lead a neighbors child to Christ a couple years ago and I am gently disabling her. She comes from an unsafe family. And the child has dyslexia. I had just purchased her a new, living translation, the “inspire “edition that has drawings in it that people can color. It’s a journaling Bible. And I was so glad to hear that the NLT is on your list for being the easiest read Bible. Since this child is now almost 11 years old and is overcoming dyslexia I think she would be able to handle it plus, I think she would get joy from coloring the pretty drawings that are in the Bible. So now I intend to go out to an art store and buy her some good watercolor, pencils, and some things like that so that she’ll have her own tools. Thanks for all you do! God bless you!
I'm thinking you meant "discipling her" rather than "disabling her". Grateful for saints who will lead kids to the Savior and bring them up in the faith.
Thank you, this is much needed.
The Lord bless you sir for this new knowledge.
I use the Jerusalem Bible mainly. I would be interested to know what you think about that translation. Thank you.
I am Afrikaans 68 years old speaking and the KJV is my Bible of preference
I enjoy this video. I like cross referencing between different versions. I mainly use the NIV, but I also have an NASB and KJV. They are great to have, and see how the same message is being said in the multiple versions. I also use the you version app to cross reference others as well. Great to do this for studying.
thank you for letting me know which versions are accurate to read. I have been reading from the NKJV A chapter a day and will be studying from the NIV in \bible study soon. I never thought about it thank you so much. I have subscribed to your channel.✝
Thank you for life-giving information. I find that the King James Bible makes memorizing Scripture easier than others. And many, many Scriptures in song from the KJV have become a valuable part of my praising, thanking and worshipping God in my daily devotions. And it is important to ask God for wisdom and understanding when reading God's Word. I find Him faithful to His promise that His Holy Spirit will help me in this way as i commit myself to continue studying and not giving up - and He does. There are Godly teachers who have helped me grow in faith, love and patient endurance as well. All thanks, praise, glory and honor be to God in Jesus' Name. Thank you, again.
Order the book In Awe Of Thy Word and you will be blessed by it. It describes that very subject and the whys.
I really like reading NRSV, which you mentioned as good translation, as well as my forever Bible translation KJV/NKJV.
Enjoy your ministry teaching. So helpful.
Very sound! Much appreciated!
Great information
Thank you Pastor. Now, I understand better and to read the right version of the Bible.
You will love prophet Bradley U-tube
I really enjoyed this teaching I would like to know what you think of the Dakes Bible I use the Amplified bible at present. Blessings From Cape Town South Africa.
You are my trusted source thanks Tiff
🙏PTL🙏I still connect AND IN LOVE WITH with my KJV Bible.🙏😇💕
Thank you for this study. ❤. We have a new Minister at the Methodist Church of have been attending. He spoke on the pulpit of the Bible he uses. I didn't catch the name, so I asked him personally. It is "The Message" by Eugene Peterson. I ordered it and it came in after I had gotten home from Church.
The Holy Spirit led me to read on the tenets of the Methodist Church and I was astonished at a lot of my important beliefs weren't mine! I didn't even know..😢 The Holy Spirit then led me to a Bible Baptist Chuch that I attended 35 yrs ago and I spoke to the Pastor in depth about his beliefs - including the Rapture. Thank you again for your messages.
Global Methodists vs umc Splitting over lgbtquia. Methodists Don t know much if little?
Yes, sad, but sign of the times. I can see the Methodist Church of my Great Grandparents' time period is not the Methodist Church of the last three, four and even five decades.
The Holy SPirit showed me that the Message version is way off! What did the Holy Spirit say to you about the Message bible?
May this message richly bless you and yours as it has bless me.
Many profess believers of Jesus Christ believe that the fourth commandment to keep the Sabbath holy was nailed to the cross and that we no longer have to keep it, while still embracing the other nine commands. Do you believe this?
Ask yourself this question: which one or ones of the following Ten Commandments do Jesus wants us to keep and obey?
1. Thou shalt not have no other gods before me.
2. Thou shalt not make or bow down to gpl raven image.
3. Thou shalt not take the name of God in vain.
4. Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy.
5. Honor thy father and thy mother.
6. Thou shalt not kill.
7. Thou shalt not commit adultery.
8. Thou shalt not steal.
9. Thou shalt not bear false witness.
10. Thou shalt not covet.
Answer_________________
The Sabbath command is not only to be kept but it is to be calculated by the Time/calendar God ordained in the beginning of creation, Genesis 1:14. The sun, moon and stars are God’s True Time/calendar not that famous Gregorian calendar hanging on our walls in our houses. The Sabbath is calculated by the sun, moon and stars.
This split in God’s law must be repaired!! All of God’s laws, statutes, judgments and testimonies are just and true! We must do things God’s way or else we will be worshipping him in vain. There will be no good reward.
God may allow the people that rules this world to enforce some type of Sabbath law to test people to see if they will keep His law or no.
Already, there are Sabbath laws/blue laws/Sunday laws on government books today.
Friday is not the true Sabbath. Saturday is not the true Sabbath. Sunday is not the true Sabbath, etc., because they are calculated by man’s time/calendars.
This information is helpful both now and future, to get back to God’s ways and be able to choose wisely if such a “Sabbath Test” is enforced.
Let us read our Bibles, seriously repent of our evil ways, stop worshiping other gods, talking about one another, stealing, killing, lying, fornicating, adultery, disobedient to parents, etc., etc., etc.
Worship Him that made heaven, earth and sea. This Babylonian system is falling, the Powers in charge are aware of this fact but they cannot stop it. Their time is coming to an end! Our time is coming to an end!
If any worship the beast and his image and receive his mark, the same shall have no rest day or night and they shall be burnt with fire and brimstone. Revelation 13 and 14. Deuteronomy 5 Isaiah 58:12-14.
Also, research the “Seven Noahide Laws.” I have heard that these are Jewish laws taken from their book, “Talmud.” The first law forbids idolatry and according to Jewish writings, to believe in Jesus Christ, God’s Son, is idolatry and is punishable by death, decapitation. I have also heard that some of the USA presidents have signed this law under “Proclamation 5956-. Education Day, U.S.A, 1989 and 1990” and, word is that, it is planned to be unleashed on all nations in the future. So, Research and see if these things be truth.
May The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
Does your Baptist church believe, " Once saved always saved"
I enjoyed your teaching. Thank you so much! May God bless you and your ministry. Folks...please take notice!
You officially have a new subscriber now. i love how brutally honest you are. 28:00
If he was honest he wud have said that the new world translation has put Gods name in we’re it was originally nearly 7000 times in the Old Testament so called and 276 times in the New Testament check your self sir ?
@@michaelhaigh9182 You need to check your ego sir. Just because he didnt go through some oddly specific details of the translation, doesnt make him a bad pastor, it doesnt dicredit the whole video.
@@arctico1714 I don’t need to do that I have give every body the words so they can check for them selves like I had to do I dident have to put any thing on here iam not right the scripture are right
I grew up hearing the KJV had to say about Jesus. Mom and Dad bought me a Good News version for when I was a teen. But when I graduated from HS I asked for a NASB version as I had heard that it was a direct translation from the original Aramaic and Greek text. I agree that there are translations that have been used as a vehicle for weird ideas. Our church uses the CVS but I am sticking to these two.
They are writing a lot of bibles to confuse people and some of them are written by atheist so you really got to be careful
Been listening and proudly subscribed this spiritual food wish I had found literally years ago.
Good job, sir. Thank you!
Thank you so very much!❤God bless you ❣️
God reveal to me 29 year go to never use any other Bible but the KJV. To this date I obey his instructions. Thanks for teaching on this subject.
.
When translations leave out the Blood, I reject them.
Exactly right.. and that includes preachers.
Such an excellent Bible study. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing this
Until I was a teenager, I never saw a Bible. We had only the Sears Roebuck catalog in our home. Today, in my 90s, I have electronic, condensed, story, and all your "acceptable" versions. I have read the entire Bible many times, and have listened several times to it being read by two different men with great voices. My favorites now are the Amplified Bible and the NASB. I have also read portions of two on your "non-acceptable" list. I have in my library, and have read, the Apocrypha and many
fiction, non-fiction, history, devotional, Bible dictionaries, political, biographical, classical, etc.
I love the Amplified Bible but my favorite is the King James Version.
I use the Douay-Rheims version 1899 edition. First published 1609.
Anything that uses the Latin Vulgate(early 5th Century) is off to a good start. I understand that St. Jerome had access to many older sources that have since been lost
I was raised with the KJV I had difficulty with many names until I downloaded the KJV app and I could read alone and learn the difficult names..Thank you for making this video
You are a ture blessing man of God, may the Lord richly bless you. ❤
Thank you so much for this in depth look at Bible Versions. I was a Catholic and never had a Bible so when I was seeking a Bible a friend set up a meeting for me with her pastor and he recommended the New American Standard as the most accurate version. I feel very blessed. ❤
@@fredthe47th thank you for that suggestion. The Bible I use is definitely falling apart and had many notes in the margin.
For Catholics I recommend the DRV.
I was raised on the King James Bible. I received a New Living Translation (walk through the bible) When I read it through I kept my KJB open for references. I love how personal my walk with God has grown with the NLV.
Solid teaching. Thank you.
God bless you sir
I have a KING JAMES version of the Bible. I received it from the Jimmy Swaggert Ministries.I have been reading from it and studying from it for many years.
Thank God for a man who preaches the truth. This is what I call a real prophet of God.
5 minutes for the Lord and 4 hours for Netflixs!!!
I clicked “Like” and “Subcribe” immediately!!!
Thank you for your content. I look forward to watching and catching up on your content.
Thanks for a well overdue message. I love the KJV and use the NASB and ESV for comparative study. I also like the NKJV and use the NLT when preaching to people whose second language is English.
Why do I stick with the ole KJB? I don’t have to worry about some of the issues Brother Tiff mentioned here.
Hallelujah!!!🙌🏻 amén! Thank you for your obedience 🙏 a few years ago I was invited to a church, where someone from Bethel church came to give a study,; omg! I had a hard time seating there listening to him, all the nonsense that he was saying. I told my friend that I did not receive what is was not of God🙏 I thank my Lord for his wisdom and understanding 🙌🏻
Did you know saying o m g is using God's name in vain? So is geeze. Etc.
Thank you for the exposition.
Thank you for this great breakdown and explanation. I’ve always used the KJV, and will continue to use it. But was good hearing about the other versions like the NASV and NKJV. Thank you 🤗❤️
The KJV has words in italics added - which are not translated but additions to the text not found in the original languages
Luther took away books from the Bible valid for around 1200 years. Why do you propose such bible translation. You mentioned the words of the revelation demning those who take away parts of the bible.
The best translation is the Jerusalem bible. Complete with paralell references and scholoraly comments.
@@andrejgrebenc3235 The verses you reference in Revelation were only referring to the Book of Revelation...if you will look at the verse it states, "The words of this prophesy".......when that was written English (as we speak) was a language that did not exist..........give us the manuscript evidence that verses have been removed and don't use a translation to do it.
Have you ever read thru the NASV or the NKJV (I have, I am about to finish the NKJV as we speak) to see for yourself what is bad in them, or are you just taking someone's word for it?
I’m not native english speaking person, but I like KJV bible. God led me into it in the beginning and I read it with finnish bible 1933/38, old testament /new testament version.
Thank you!!!
Thank you Brother Tiff.
I think the NIV has some real discrepancies. Love my KJV.
Fully agree! The errors in the NIV are shocking!!
@@natalamakhuva5878 Such as?
@@asmartbajan Quick response. Please read Romans8:1 online in the NKJV, KJV and the NIV. I believe the most critical part of the verse is left out - who live not according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit...
Brotherly greetings
@@natalamakhuva5878 To me, the more critical part of the verse is "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus." The second part is implied by that first. Isn't it?
Amen!
