Askjo said "No version deletes this important truth. Distortion! Michelle refers to Col. 1:14."
Yes, Col 1:14 is an isolated textual issue. It does not mean a version deletes this important truth, simply because one single verse does not mention blood. That's my point with Eph 4:32 in the KJV - it as an isolated verse does not mention blood either, yet the KJV as a version had not deleted the important truth of the blood. Saying MVs delete the important truth of the blood because of the one isolated textual issue in Col 1:14 is like saying the KJV deletes the important truth of that Jesus is Lord because Jude 1:25 does not mention Jesus is Lord while the MVs do. If you believe other versions delete the importand truth of the blood, do you believe the KJV deletes the important truth of Jesus being Lord? Of course you don't, for that would be consistent.
To demonstrate that MVs do NOT delete the important truth of the blood of Jesus, I refer you to the following verses, all take from the NIV:
Matt 26:28 This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.
Mark 14:24 "This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many," he said to them.
Luke 22:20 In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.
John 6:53 Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you.
54 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.
55 For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink.
56 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him.
Acts 20:28 Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood.
Rom 3:25 God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement,I through faith in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished--
26 he did it to demonstrate his justice at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.
Rom 5:9 Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him!
1 Cor 10:16 Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ?
1 Cor 11:25 In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me."
26 For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.
27 Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.
Eph 1:7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace
Eph 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.
Col 1:20 and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.
Heb 9:12 He did not enter by means of the blood of goats and calves; but he entered the Most Holy Place once for all by his own blood, having obtained eternal redemption.
13 The blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that they are outwardly clean.
14 How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God!
Heb 10:19 Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus,
Heb 13:12 And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood.

The modern versions delete the important truth of his blood? MISINFORMATION!
