Description
by
Timothy Williams (Author)
The purpose of this book is to address the controversy that the modern Bible translations are different than the King James Version (and the New King James Version) and the accusation that they are corrupt and inferior to the King James Version (and the New King James Version), with this study focusing on the New Testament and the Greek text behind the New Testament. This issue has become very divisive, and it is troubling that people accuse the other side of having a corrupt or inferior Bible. It is fine if you think that your Bible is the best one, but it is wrong to condemn other evangelical and scholarly Bibles as being corrupt or inferior. This is a divisive issue that must be reconciled. The author respects both the modern Bible translations and the King James tradition, and will give positive points for each one. However, it will be shown that the truth is that the main reason for the differences between the King James tradition and the modern Bible translations is the fact that the Textus Receptus has additions to it (this is the Greek text behind the New Testament of the KJV and NKJV). Therefore, it is not true that the Greek New Testament text behind the modern Bible translations is a corrupted or inferior text. This point will be demonstrated more clearly with the revelation that there is an ancient Bible (an Alexandrian manuscript) that has one more “Son of God” in the gospel of Mark than the King James Version (and the New King James Version). This book concludes by offering a perspective for how the Christian community might see the differences between these two Bible traditions and how we should conduct ourselves with grace and truth.
