Featured Does a Multitude of Modern English Bible Versions Promote a Violation of 1 Cor 1:10

Responding to your last sentence in your comments.

Then why are your personal, individual, and subjective opinions a hindrance to the freedom of believers who disagrees with you? I would not be asking this question if what you claim God teaches is clear cut in the scriptures as you confidently state.

Are you Conan?

 

Your views come almost entirely from the words of the scholarly men whom you constantly quote. You believe what you preach because they are your teachers. Their arguments are your arguments. You do not understand that we are warned by the scriptures of this type of worldly wisdom.

Secondly, one cannot expect to convince many from the scriptures at this time. This is the last days that the apostle warned the church about when men would have a form of godliness and deny the power thereof. The will heap to themselves teachers having itching ears and would turn their ears from the truth and be turned unto fables. There are few that believes that. Take a look at this statement that is profound.

Col 1:20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
21 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in you mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled
22 In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:
23 If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;
24 Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body’s sake, which is the church:
25 Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God;
26 Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:
27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:

I wanted you to see this passage in the context and show you in verse 23 that a condition exists for God's continued grace to the gentiles and how later Paul would write to Timothy and catalog the conditions when gentiles will no longer believe and deceive while being deceived. It just happens that in the last 120 years no Christian is sure about the word of God and that they have access to it because we have over 100 different books in one language saying they can be trusted to get people to heaven although they are not the word of God.

Ro 11:13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:

Paul now speaks to the gentiles after having been speaking to them who know the Law of Moses since Ro 7:1

Still speaking to gentiles he says this;

Ro 11:19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in.
20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.
22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.

The fullness of the gentiles church will be complete when they will no longer believe and God will then cut them, the gentiles, off from the root of the good olive tree. He cut the natural branches off so he could graft in the wild olive tree against nature (one usually grafts the good into the wild) and the warning is that some day they will be cut off for the same reason, unbelief.

Ro 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

Very few believes this these days because the mysteries of God are not taught in the denominations that have risen up to teach deception. Read 2 Cor 11 here.

I am not going to continue with you saying I am wrong and me saying you are wrong. It does not honor our Lord.

 

There are tares mixed in with the wheat and one cannot tell the difference until the harvest. Before the wheat is gathered into the barn at the end of this age, Jesus says his angels will gather the tares into bundles to be burned. However the bundling will happen before the wheat is gathered and then the bundles will be burned in the fire. The great tribulation is said to be the fire that will burn up every offensive thing in this world as the water destroyed all in Noah's day and God will begin anew with few left in the world, relatively speaking, but the residue all saved.

Isa 24:6 Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.

Context (that most on here will not believe if they have 400 more translations into English)

Isa 24:1 ¶ Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.
2 And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him.
3 The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken this word.
4 The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish.
5 The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.
6 Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.

Mal 4:1 For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.

I doubt there is a single person who comments on this web site who believes this.

Here is what Jesus said about this age we are living in now when it comes to and end in apostasy and his judgement of it.


Mt 13:36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.
37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

The word "world" is the word <165> Aion = age. The fire is the tribulational fires described in most of the OT prophets.

Re 22:18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

You fellows are promoting paraphrases and thought for thought translations(?) and nothing about God's word seems to be holy.

Mt 13:33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.

You guys are not making the kingdom better with the leaven, which is corruption, you are just hastening the complete leavening of the whole lump.

So, after about 2k years of the history of the age, we gets scores of new translations and paraphrases in a very short span of years.

The warning is clear and the end is near.

Ga 1:3 Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:

Jesus died for our sins and rose again from the dead and is alive evermore and will save anyone who repents and believes. Amen, Hallelujah.

This is worth giving some thought to.

 

Glen Conjurske is not God and his musings are opinions. The curse is real and I predicted that few on this board, if any, will believe it is. God is not giving more light to apostates. He promises judgement and darkness.

I will post a thread later to talk about what the word of God is.

 

Literal what? There is no concensus among scholars about the original language texts and there is no one alive today that one can ask, except God. He was alive when the Scriptures were written and he is still alive today. We can ask him. He is a constant and everlasting companion to the saved, he said. If we were to ask him and he were to answer out loud he would say I have already addressed that question in the epistles of 1 and 2 Corinthians and I am requiring that you receive it by faith.

Here is a prayer from a man who was chosen to speak the mind of God for God and this is what he prayed.

15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,
16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,
20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,
21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,
23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

This prayer is in the context of the theme of this epistle, which is "the mystery of Christ" which is revealed in the epistle and defined in Eph 3:6 and it is the inclusion of the gentiles along with Jewish believers in this body he is forming in this age, which is taken from the physical body of the crucified Christ and becomes both the body and the bride of Christ.

The answer for scholarly men who have not the teacher from God, the life giving Spirit, dwelling in them, is to write more and more Bibles. If one listens to what they say, they will tell us that is the reason for writing them. They say one can understand them better if one has many of them and compares them with one anonther.

What kind of logic and reasoning is this?

9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but (in the words) which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? but we have the mind of Christ.

Jn 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

Words of Jesus Christ are spirit and life? Who would have known except we were told?
