    How do you know that John 3:16 or say Romans 10:13 are really scripture from God?

    If no bible is perfect and no greek or hebrew text for that matter are perfect, than how do you know which parts of the bible you use to believe and which parts not to believe?

    It just seems like it comes down to each individual becoming their own authority on what is scripture, where is the standard? is their a standard?

    There are no textual variants for either verse. However,there are plenty of misunderstandings of the former.

    A good translation does NOT require perfect textual sources, nor to be without any mistakes in it, in order to be the word of God to us today!

    God is perfect
    the originals were also perfect

    original languages texts/translations essential so, enough to be considered authoritative and word of God!

    which Single Greek?hebrew text today would THE ones to use then?

    Closing this. These threads are starting to look a lot like repetitive trolling.
