THE END OF YOUR SEARCH FOR JW TYPE BIBLES
This is not to be construed as my defense of the KJB but rather is damning info on the perversions. Bible correcting educators, like the Jehovah's Witnesses, have discovered that if they are allowed to define or redefine Bible words or not translate them at all, then they can establish their own pet theories and heresies. Both Bible Correctors and Jehovah's Witnesses must be challenged about whether they have a scriptural basis for such arbitrary methodology. They must also justify these insertions of additions and omissions into their modern bible translations. Observe the following omissions of the ASV, * English Revised, American Revised, RSV, NIV, and the Jehovah's Witnesses’ bible all omitting the King James reading in the following passages. Are these coincidences? Or is there a common thread of corruption?
*Note: We do not have a NASV or a NASU, so we cannot include it but we suspect that many of the same changes and omissions are in it as well as the ASV. -- Herb Evans
