This Documentary presents the historical facts that accompany the publication of over 100 English versionsof the Bible. These continual but unsuccessfulattempts to replace the King James Version KJV Bible can not prevail because GOD Himselfpreserves and protects His inerrant and infallible Holy Scripture from all heresy, blasphemy, compromise or confusion.

 

BEST ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE:

GOD’S WORD (Immutable, God breathed, Self-Authenticating. Providentially Protected and Preserved and Forever Settled in Heaven, Psalm 119:89) The Authorized King James Bible

Is It The Best?   David Hocking

 

David’s Summary  (8 min.) The problem is not English, but is which Greek text was used to translate the Greek into English. [The Textus Receptus (Received Text) was rendered from 5,321 extant Greek manuscripts known as the Majority Text  MT. These manuscripts overwhelmingly agree with one another and do not contain the heretical biases found in the Greek Text of Westcott & Hort  and Nestle & Aland. The Foundational support of these two Greek Texts rest upon only 55 hand-picked  manuscripts from the extant Majority Text instead of all 5,321.

A SINNER’S PRAYER

________________________________________

PRAYER 5 Part 3 of 6   TO THE KING ETERNAL,

And [Lord] somehow, we feel it sweet to come to Thee in this way. If we had to tell Thee that we had some good thing in us which Thou didst [did] require of us, we should be questioning whether we were not flattering ourselves and presumptuously thinking that we were better than we are.

Lord Jesus, we come *just as we are; this is how we came at first, and this is how we come still, with all our failures, with all our transgressions [all our sins], with all and everything that is what it ought not to be we come to Thee. We do bless Thee that Thou dost receive us [You do welcome us] and our wounds, and by Thy [Your] stripes we are healed; Thou dost [You do] receive us and our sins, and by Thy sin-bearing we are set clear and free from sin. Thou dost [You do] receive us and our death, even our death, for Thou art He that liveth [lives] and was dead, and art [are] alive for evermore. We just come and lie at Thy [Your] feet, obedient to that call of Thine [Your call], “Come unto Me all ye that labor and I will give you rest.” Let us feel sweet rest, since we do come at Thy [Your] call. May some come that have never come till this day, and may others who have been coming these many years consciously come again, coming unto Thee as unto a living stone, chosen of God and precious, to build our everlasting hopes upon. But, Lord, now that we are come so near Thee [so near to You], and on right terms with Thee, [You] we venture to ask Thee [You] this, that we that love Thee[You] may love Thee [You] very much more. Oh! since Thou hast [since You have] been precious, Thy [Your] very name has music in it to our ears, and there are times when Thy [Your] love is so inexpressibly strong upon us that we are carried away with it. We have felt that we would gladly die to increase Thine [Your] honor. We have been willing to lose our name and our repute [reputation] if so be Thou mightest [You might] be glorified, and truly we often feel that if the crushing of us would lift Thee one inch the higher, we would gladly suffer it. For oh! Thou [You] blessed King, we would set the crown on Thy [Your] head, even if the sword should smite [cut] our arm off at the shoulder blade.

ANECDOTE 175: The Duty at Hand.

Nothing for a Christian to do! You are lazy, sirs; lazy, listless, sluggish, or else you would never raise such a question. It is not,

“What should I do,” but

 

“Where shall I begin doing it which is the first point ?”

And I would say, begin at the point that is nearest to you. So they did, when they built the walls of Jerusalem. Every man built opposite to his own house. There, you see, the advantage was he had not to walk two miles to his work at morning and then come back at night. He built opposite to his own house, so he was spared all that trouble. And when he had a little leisure time, when he went to his dinner, he could sit and look at his work, and think how to do it better next time. There was a further advantage in that. Much economy and great benefit would come of it were Christians to work near where they live, and take up that part of Christian service most congenial to their circumstances and to their tastes.

 

“ Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do”, next to thine own door, and
 

“do it with all thy might.”

FAITH’S CHECKBOOK January 24 CARE OF OUR FEET by C.H. Spurgeon (1834-1892)

-He will keep the feet of his saints-    — 1 Samuel 2:9

Entonces hablaste en visión a tu santo,

Y dijiste: He puesto el socorro sobre uno que es poderoso;

He exaltado a un escogido de mi pueblo. 1 Samuel 2:9

 

 

 

The way is slippery, and our feet are feeble, but the Lord will keep our feet. If we give ourselves up by obedient faith to be His holy ones, He will Himself be our guardian [protector].

Not only will He charge His angels to keep us, but He Himself will preserve [care for us in] our goings. He will keep our feet from falling [slipping or tripping], so that we won’t defile our garments, wound our souls, or cause the enemy to blaspheme [disrespect God in any way]. He will keep our feet from wandering*, so that we do not go into paths of error, or ways of folly, or courses [followers] of the world’s custom.

 

He will keep our feet from swelling through weariness, or blistering because of the roughness and length of the way. He will keep our feet from wounding [being wounded]: our shoes shall be iron and brass, so that even though we tread on the edge of the sword, or on deadly serpents, we shall not bleed, or be poisoned.

 

He will also pluck [snatch] our feet out of the net [trap]. We shall not be entangled by the deceit of our malicious and crafty foes. With such a promise as this, let us run without weariness, and walk without fear. He [The Lord Jesus] who keeps our feet will do it effectually.

*Going aimlessly or being distracted

Prayer: Thank you Father that You protect and guide our feet [The feet of the redeemed who trust in You]. I do trust in you, Lord Jesus. Please protect and guide my feet, my life and everything that pertains to me. Thank You for the blessed assurance of my salvation in You, Amen.

 

Sing Blessed Assurance, won’t you?

       … and pray for the saving of souls and strengthening  of believers. 

The Lord … is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Pray also that believers will be taught by the Holy Spirit to rightly divide God’s eternal Word preserved and protected by God, Himself.

John 3:16  
 

The Textus Receptus TR [Received Text] is the faithfully rendered Greek text with an overwhelming agreement in and among the majority of the 5,321 extant New Testament, Greek manuscripts  known as the  MT. [Majority Text]. The Old Testament Hebrew and Aramaic manuscripts were meticulously copied by hand [manuscript] by the Masoretic scribes. These are the manuscripts  from which  the Original 1611 King James version  was translated onto English.

In order for Westcott & Hort and Nestle & Aland to create the Modern Critical Greek text from which the many variant readings were brought forth, new Greek through highly nuanced readings from Westcott & Hort’s  Critical Text theory.  Only Fifty-five 55 manuscripts from the 5,321 Majority Text MT were hand-picked and they were not from the foundational manuscripts  from which the Textus Receptus was rendered but were selected from  the inferior Sinaiticus and Vaticanus codices. These fifty-five manuscripts  brought  variant readings and were created, , to justify the creation of alternative Greek text to replace the primary and highly reliable source of the  Textus Receptus which had been under spurious and ungrounded  attack by Westcott & Hort and Nestle & Aland for many years.

Codices known as Sinaiticus and Vaticanus are inferior because they often are in disagreement with the Textus Receptus and incredibly, in disagreement with one another. They give rise to variant readings and embrace secular doctrine bias not supported by scripture translated from the Majority Text or the Textus Receptus.  They have been infused by the  invented new Greek text when  words for a word-for-word  correspondence were absent. from the scant Fifty-five hand-picked and highly prejudicial fraction of the 5,321 Majority Text  MT manuscripts occurred.  

They invented but did not disclose themselves as the source  of these  new Greek translations. A code of secrecy was demanded from each member of the Revision Committee.    They supplied this new Greek translation to all Committee members with the aim to revise the King James Bible. However, They insisted on a code of secrecy as to the authorship of the Greek Text from which all Revisions were to be based. All members of the committee were required to agree to this code.

Modern textual criticism is based on the assumption that older manuscripts are, de-facto, more accurate. Actually, the continuous and unsettled changes from their  variant readings reflect error, doctrinal ambiguities and biases not supported by the Majority Text or Textus Receptus.

Scripture based on The Greek text of Westcott &  Hort or  Nestle & Aland embrace a secular or denominational doctrine bias or tradition that allows modern textual criticism  to  rob God of Sovereignty, Omnipotence, Omnipresence, Immutability, Inerrancy and  Infallibility due HIM ALONE and to diminish Glory from the infinite and everlasting “I AM” who is WORTHY, who deserves and demands ALL GLORY!

For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in Heaven. Psalm 119:89

God is not the author of confusion. 1 Corinthians 4:33­­

GOD, HIMSELF, protects and preserves all of His inspired SCRIPTURE.  HIS God-breathed, self-authenticating, immutable [unchanging and unchangeable], eternal, everlasting inerrant,[Without Error] infallible, [Never Fails] infinite [Has always existed from Eternity Past to Eternity Future   and all-powerful [Omnipotent] WORD.

MORNING

"Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler." —Psalm 91:3

—Y él te librará del lazo del cazador— Salmos 91:3

 

GOD delivers His people from the snare [trap] of the fowler [bird trapper] in two senses.

 

From, and out of.
 

First, He delivers them [keeps them away] from the snare [trap] or does not let them enter it;

Second, if they should be caught therein, He delivers [frees] them out of it.

The first promise is the most precious to some; the second is the best to others. "He shall deliver thee from the snare." How? Trouble is often the means [way] whereby God delivers us, God knows that our backsliding will soon end in our destruction, and in mercy He sends the rod [discipline]. We ask, "Lord, why is this?" [Why me?] not knowing that our trouble has been the means of delivering us from far greater evil. In this way many have been saved from ruin by their sorrows and their crosses [trials]; these have frightened the birds from the net.

At other times, God keeps His people from the snare of the fowler by giving them great spiritual strength, so that when they are tempted to do evil they say,

"How can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?"

[– I can’t]

But what a blessed thing it is that if the believer comes into [and is caught in] the net in an evil hour, yet God will bring him out of it! O backslider [unfaithful one], be cast down [humbled], but do not despair. Though you have been a wanderer [following your own aimless or selfish desires], hear what your Redeemer says:
 

"Return, [come back] O backsliding [unfaithful] children, I will have mercy upon you."

 

But you say you cannot return, for you are a captive [of an addiction or obsession]. Then listen to the promise;

"Surely He shall deliver thee out of the snare of the fowler."

 

You will yet be brought out of all evil into which you have fallen, and though you will never be able to cease repenting of your [evil] ways,  [until heaven is our home] ;yet...

 

He who has loved you will not cast [throw] you away [give-up on you].

 

He will receive [welcome] you, and give you joy and gladness, so that the bones He has broken may rejoice

[be glad for his loving discipline].

 

No bird of paradise [no saved person]

shall die in the fowler's net.

EVENING

 

"Martha was cumbered about much serving." —Luke 10:40

— Empero Marta se distraía en muchos servicios— Lucas 10:40

 

Her [Martha’s] fault was not that she served: the condition of a servant compliments every Christian.

 

"I serve,"

 

should be the motto of all the princes of the royal family of heaven. Nor was it her fault that she had "much serving."
We cannot do too much. Let us do all that we possibly can; let head, and heart, and hands, be engaged in the Master's service. It was no fault of hers that she was busy preparing a feast for the Master. Happy [was] Martha, to have an opportunity of entertaining so blessed a guest, and happy, too, to have the spirit to throw her whole soul so heartily into the preparation. Her fault was that she grew "cumbered with much serving,"

 

so that she forgot Him and only remembered the service. She allowed service to override communion and so

 

 [she] presented one duty stained with the blood of another [duty].

 

We ought to be Martha and Mary in one: we should do much service and have much communion  at the same time. For this we need great grace.

 

It is easier to serve than to commune. Joshua never grew weary in fighting with the Amalekites; but Moses, on the mountaintop in prayer, needed two helpers to sustain his hands. The more spiritual the exercise, the sooner we tire in it.

 

The choicest fruits are the hardest to rear [cultivate, grow]:

 

the most heavenly character traits are the most difficult to cultivate.

 

Beloved, while we do not neglect external things, good enough in themselves, we ought also to see to it that we enjoy [a] living, personal fellowship with Jesus. See to it that sitting at the Savior's feet is not neglected, even though it be under the specious [superficial] pretext of doing Him service [serving Him]. The first thing for our soul's health, the first thing for His glory, and the first thing for our own usefulness, is to

 

keep ourselves in perpetual communion with the Lord Jesus, and to see that the vital spirituality of our religion [faith in and fellowship with Jesus Christ with Him] is maintained over and above everything else  in the world.

A SINNER’S  PRAYER 

 

    Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:21

    Pray and call on the name of the Lord Jesus. Won’t you?

 

“Lord Jesus, I’m a sinner. I’m lost and it’s hopeless for me to save myself. Without you and your death on the cross I would spend eternity in Hell.

I know that me doing my best or being good (in my own opinion)  and justifying my own behavior as "good"  or "OK"  can never be enough to save me.
I look to You, alone  Lord Jesus to save me. 
I come to You   right now.  Lord Jesus. Will You  please save me.  I believe You died on the cross in my place to pay for my sin debt and put to death my sin nature. I know  You always keep your word.  Please save me. You have said and  it’s written in the Bible that you won’t reject anyone who comes to you. Thank You.

I  give myself completely to You, Lord Jesus. I’m sorry for every sin I’ve done and I now turn away from each one and look to You to forgive me, save me and deliver me from future evil.  Thank you for forgiving  all of  my sins by dying on the cross paying the punishment that I deserve.  I’m a sinner by nature and by my actions. But now I'm washed clean by Your blood that was shed for me at the cross.

Thank you Lord Jesus that You loved me and died for me before I was bor n and that You love me now and will always love me and will never reject or turn your back on me. I know You are the Way, the Truth and the Life and that no one can come to the Father other than by You.

Thank you, Father that You have made a way for me to see myself as ungodly.  But,  because You are good You have made a way and given me the desire to come to You, to turn away from my sin and to trust in the Lord Jesus.  You have forgiven me because He took my place and You have provided for  me to be born again [born from above, born of the Holy Spirit]. 
You prompted this desire and faith to believe in Your only begotten Son who,gave up  His life and died on the cross to pay my sin debt, not mine alone, but the sins of the whole world.

Thank You, righteous Father of love that you allowed Jesus to suffer and die raised Jesus from the dead. He is ALIVE and in Him we are victorious over sin, death and the grave and in Christ Jesus there is no condemnation. After You raised Him from the dead You gave Him a Glorified, [everlasting] physical body and  after he was seen by many witnesses on earth You took Him up to reign with  You  in heaven. 

 

Thank you for saving me.  I pray this in the name, of Your only begotten Son, the Lord Jesus Christ with a grateful heart.   Thank You for saving me heavenly Father and for the Comforter, The Spirit of Truth, for my guidance and solemn instruction into all truth.,  Amen.”

Thank You Holy Spirit of Truth, Comforter, Paraclete [one who comes along side]  for the new life in Jesus and victory that comes when I recon myself dead indeed unto sin and alive unto God through Christ Jesus our Lord trusting You, Holy Spirit for the execution of this vow.

 Romans 6:11

 

Thank you, Holy Spirit, that you always bear witness to and exalt the Lord Jesus.  John 16:8-11

With all my heart, thank you Lord for saving me.
Abide in me Lord Jesus in Your name I pray, Amen.

SPECIAL SPURGEON SERMON: “Why Men Cannot Believe in Christ”

[Christ Jesus]

Note: This Sermon was referenced in the Men’s Bible Study on Wednesday, August 14th 2024 at South Shores Church and is featured here as an unabridged Audio recording of Sermon # 1245 that was preached originally by Charles Spurgeon in 1875 from his home church, The Metropolitan Tabernacle, London, U.K.

Can You trust this website?

Is it of God?

Is it trustworthy?

1 John  Chapter 4

Beloved ones, don’t be believing every spirit [everything you hear] but [continually] be testing the spirit whether it is of God: because many false prophets have come out in the world. Here’s how you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit [voice] that confesseth [confesses, says] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh, having come out of God, is of God: and every spirit [voice] that confesseth not [doesn't confess] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

Hence, I confess [declare and affirm] "Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh."

___________________________________________________________________

He has always existed from eternity past [FOREVER] as the WORD of God.    John 1:1-2

And He was born of a virgin 2,024 years ago in Bethlehem, the WORD made flesh,

is alive today, and is coming soon for His *bride, the Church

[*All redeemed believers].

"And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:

God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit,

believed on in the world, received up into glory."

1 Timothy 3:16

 

Let me invite you to trust in  the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord and to publicly confess [declare] Him as such before men [publicly]. He will therefore be able to acknowledge and confess you before His Father in Heaven. He is The God of Abraham. Isaac and Jacob. Following your public confession, You also invited to follow Him in believer’s baptism by immersion. 

 

Jesus came from Galilee t o Jordan to be baptized by John the Baptist. But, John forbad [refused] Him and said, “I have need to be baptized of You and [yet] you are coming to me?” [for baptism] And Jesus answering him said, “Suffer it to be so [Allow this]: for thus it becometh [is fitting and right for] us to fulfil all righteousness.” 

 Matthew 3:15

 

Baptism is not required for salvation. Remember, what Jesus said to the thief on the cross, who acknowledged Jesus’ innocence and said to him:

 

“Remember me when you come into your kingdom.”

 

And then, Jesus said to him:

 

“Verily [Truly] I say to you, Today you shall be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:43

Baptism pictures the Lord’s death, burial  and resurrection and the believer’s new birth.

 

It bears witness with John the Baptist who preached that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand and exhorted Repentance from sin and the Baptism of atonement. Therefore, the act of baptism is not required for salvation but it is an act of obedience to fulfil all righteousness.

Matthew 3:15

Romans 6:3-5:

3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?

4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection.

Remembering Jon Edward Riley (1971-2021) who would sometimes just bust-out singing the following songs; sometimes, on the way to church sometimes just singing along with the Elvis Gospel CD that was always kept in the truck’s CD player or, even better, a song the Lord would spontaneously put in his joyful and loving heart.

…Jon always said “Later”; [see-ya-later] instead of “good bye”. It was his standard greeting to bid farewell … He would never  say “good-bye”. Now, as we remember the sound of him saying “Later”, it rings very true as to its new and deeper meaning and it brings a joyfulness and comfort to the hearts of those he loved so well; those who love him still and will forever more.

… we are  reminded of the promise of the Hymn:  

 ’Till We Meet Again. Amen.

Jesus Christ [Messiah- Anointed King]  has always existed, from eternity past [FOREVER] as the WORD of God.    John 1:1-2

And He was born of a virgin 2,024 years ago in Bethlehem, the WORD made flesh,

is alive today, and is coming soon for His *bride, the Church

[*All redeemed believers].

"And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:

God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit,

believed on in the world, received up into glory."

1 Timothy 3:16

 

You’re invited to receive the Lord Jesus Christ [The Messiah] as your Savior and Lord and to publicly confess your trust in Him so He  will then be able to acknowledge you before His Father, The God of Abraham. Isaac and Jacob. Jesus answered him and  said, “Suffer it to be so [to let this happen]: for thus it becometh [is in accord with] us to fulfil all righteousness.” 

 Matthew 3:15

 

Baptism is not required for salvation. Remember, Jesus said to the thief on the cross, who acknowledged Jesus’ innocence and said to him.

 

“Remember me when you come into your kingdom.”

 

And Jesus said to him,

 

“Verily [Truly] I say to you, Today you shall be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:43

The act of Baptism pictures the Lord’s death, burial  and resurrection and the believer’s death to self, burial, and resurrection to walk in newness of life.

It bears witness to the preaching of John the Baptist who preached that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand and exhorted Repentance from sin and the Baptism of atonement. Therefore, the act of baptism is not required for salvation but as John preached it is is to be followed to fulfil all righteousness

This website is not intended, were it possible, to take the place of the personal and physical gathering of believers fellowship or congregational worship in  local bodies of believers.

“Study to show yourself approved unto God, a worker that needs not be ashamed, rightly dividing [accurately comprehending and sharing] the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

 

Following the Lord Jesus Christ in His purpose for us is our desire. We trust Him for our salvation, guidance, strength and our eternal destiny. We desire to and will, with His help, follow Him in soul winning by use of DailySpurgeon or any instrumentality He may bestow. We invite and encourage non-believers to turn away from sin, look to Him and be saved.

We trust that believers (old and new) will benefit in knowing that He will sustain, guide and build us up as we are being conformed to the image of Christ Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Thank You LORD for dailyspurgeon.com  a website that  proclaims Jesus, the Christ [Messiah and Anointed King] to all the world .

 

This website ministry grew from a beginning of sending e-mails from  Charles Spurgeon’s  Faith’s Checkbook a book of daily promises from Scripture  to John Michael’s son, Jon Edward Riley (1971- 2021). When Jon shared them with others, they asked to be added to this mailing list. This mailing list grew to over 400 and  continues to be used in the  distribution of  the website content  Our prayer is that it will continue to encourage followers of Jesus Christ in vigorous  personal devotions of  Love, obedience and oneness with Jesus Christ through the study of and obedience to GOD’S WORD empowered by the Holy Ghost.

 

Devotional contents  by Charles Spurgeon are brought together daily at dailyspurgeon.com

These devotional contents were written and calendared by Charles Spurgeon over 200 years ago yet  continue to have a significant relevance today.

 

We pray that many lost souls will be born-again and then be built-up in the Faith of Jesus Christ. May God sustain, guide and protect this ministry begun with John Michael’s  beloved son, Jon Edward Riley (1971-2021)  honored here as one to whom honor is due.

 

Jon Edward loved to say, 

“I’m a blood-bought, born-again child of God.”

…then, he would tell them about JESUS and his love. John 3:16

Is this website   dailyspurgeon.com   trustworthy?

Is it true?     Is it of God? 

We should apply the following Scripture to everything we hear/read to discern whether what we are  hearing or reading is of God and therefore whether or not it should be believed.
 

1 John 4:1-3  Beloved ones, don’t be believing every spirit [word] you hear but be testing the spirits [words] whether they are of God: because many false prophets have gone out into the world. Here’s how you know if it is the Spirit [voice]  of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh, having come from God, is of God:  and every spirit that confesses not that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 

Therefore beloved, we must test every voice [written or spoken]  to discern whether it is from God or not. By applying these scripture verses we can determine with certainty if the scriptural standard that protects believers from believing false prophets has been met.   We can thereby identify false witnesses and determine not to believe or follow them.  The voice [spirit] being tested should not be believed unless it confesses [states]  that… 

“Jesus Christ is here, in the flesh having come from God .”

 

Two Greek manuscripts that were cobbled together by Westcott & Hort and Nestle & Aland do not make this confession nor do they follow the Textus Receptus  rendered from 5,321 extant Greek manuscripts,  which  agree overwhelmingly with each other  known as as the Majority Text. The 5,321  Majority Text is the source from which the trusted Textus Receptus was rendered.

 

Instead, these two purveyors of Greek texts used their own Greek  translations that they invented by hand picking only 55 of the 5,321extant Greek manuscripts. When these 55 Manuscripts did not contain the text being translated, they inserted their own invented and unfounded Greek text. 

 

Their invented Greek translation  presented variant  readings different than the Textus Receptus [Received Text] in many places. One example  from 1 John, Chapter 4 where  all English translations other than the King James version overlook the original Greek verb “ictin” [To be] [is] (third person singular) that is translated in substantially all Majority Texts MT and  subsequently in the Textus Receptus [Received Text] and therefore have failed to correctly translate  the Greek verb  as, “Is come” [Is here].  (correctly Translated from the Textus Receptus [Received Text (TR)]  in the King James Version) 

This  error occurs  because the  modern critical Greek text, created by Westcott & Hort and Nestles & Alland DO NOT follow the  MT [Majority Texts] of 5,321 Greek manuscripts that  affirm substantial agreement with one another.   The TR  [Textus Receptus] is rendered from an overwhelming agreement found among the Majority Text of 5,321 primary Greek manuscript sources.

Both Westcott & Hort and Nestles & Alland ignore the verb “is”, from their invented  Greek text and place “has come” instead.

This error may be legally described as res ipsa loquitur a latin phrase that means “the thing speaks for itself”.

 Therefore, the Greek  inventions generated by these two sources are not actually translations, even though they are introduced as translations, but actually  represent their own  Greek language inventions unsupported by the reliability of the Majority Texts and the Textus Receptus.

How do we know? 

We know because both  non-believers and false prophets assert that Jesus Christ 
“has come” in the flesh. Practically anyone  can make this confession as the  birth of Jesus Christ is considered by historians to be the most well documented fact in all of human history. 

 

That He has come is generally acknowledged by nonbelievers and believers alike.   However, here’s the point. There is a huge difference in meaning between “Has come” and “Is Here”. “Has come” is woefully short of the essential and clear meaning of the confession “Is Here”.

 

Just because something “has come” it can not be assumed, inferred or deduced that it also “is here”.

The “has come” assertion is generally held.  It is not, per se, a false statement. Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. However, this  falls short of  presenting a logical rubric to discern whether the sprit [voice] being tested [tried] is from God or from false prophets in the spirit of antichrist. 

 

Again, the expression “has come” rather than  “is come” [is here]  is not, per se a false statement.

However, it fails to deliver a valid hypothesis, by which spiritual understanding can be discerned. The failure here  to establish a logical and rhetorically sound rubric to judge  the question of whether spirits [words] are from God or from false prophets and the spirit of antichrist is absent if “has come” is  the favored reading.

 

Actually, “has come” is such a wide-spread belief held to be historically true by all, yet, it does not provide a sound standard to discern whether a spirit [spoken or written words]  are from God or the spirit of Antichrist.

 

Almost anyone [or any spirit] can declare that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh. But as you see, this does not resolve the issue of whether something should or should not be believed as true or followed. Why?  Once again,  because almost anyone can and often does confess that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh. But, his is an insufficient standard. The standard must be whether the confession that Jesus is here  alone, gives an efficacious standard to discern truth from error.

Again, while it is  true that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh, this alone is inadequate to discern truth from error. “Has come” does not mean the same thing as “is come [is here],  from God, in the flesh” and therefore fails to be efficacious for true spiritual discernment.

 

Further, as we  compare  Scripture with  scripture in 1 John 4:1-3 and  Ephesians 5:30-32 

we comprehend God’s message regarding  the body of Jesus Christ  being in the Flesh vis-à-vis The Body of Christ, The Corporate Church.

Compare Scripture with Scripture:  1 John 4:1-3   with Ephesians 5:30-32 

1 John 4:1-3  Authorized (King James) Version

4 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 and every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 

Ephesians 5:30-32 
Authorized (King James) Version

30 for we are members of his [Jesus Christ’s]  body,  of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning  Christ and the church. 

 [So, we are flesh and bone members of His body, We are] one flesh with Him,  The Body of Christ is (In the flesh); and is the incarnate Body of believers.

 

He was born of a virgin 2025 years ago and He’s alive today.                       

He’s coming again  soon,  for His bride; the Church [Blood-bought, Born-again members of His body].

 

When a believer considers the fact that they are members of the body of Christ [The Church] , they will see and acknowledge that…

 

“Jesus Christ is here, from God,  in the flesh,” because  We are the Body of Christ; The Church, in the flesh! 

Amen.

THE BEST BIBLE TRANSLATION:
 

Why The KING JAMES is Best  by Steven Houck

Even though [some misinformed Bible readers believe] the King James Version has its weaknesses, it is an excellent translation and by far the best version [and the version most in demand today]. We must not be taken in by the modern versions and their claims. Our 400 years old Bible is to be preferred above all others because it is better than them all.

1) It was translated by men who are unsurpassed in their knowledge of Biblical studies.

2) The translators were pious men of God who believed in the inspiration of the Holy Scriptures.

3) It is the mature fruit of generations of English translations as well as the careful work of its translators.
4) The King James Version is based upon the Received Text rather than the critical Greek text of modern versions. [vis. Sinaiticus and Vaticanus.]
5) It is a word-for-word translation which faithfully and accurately reflects the originals [of the Majority Texts, MT].

6) The language is one of reverence and respect which gives honor [and greater glory] to the majesty of its Author.

7) Of all the English versions of today, it alone is the Bible of the Reformation.

8) Our spiritual forefathers thought so highly of it that they were willing to suffer and even die for it.

9) It is the version which has been recognized for generations and generations as the Bible God has given to His English-speaking Church.

 

[A 10th reason why it is best is added here by DailySpurgeon.com]

 

10) The KJV is the work of 54 translators selected and organized into seven companies. (2), from Westminster (2), from Cambridge, (2), from Oxford and (1)  from London. The work was done openly allowing each company to receive inquiries or comments during the course of the work.  When an issue of disagreement arose, it was addressed in Prayer and discussion was continued until the difference was resolved unanimously and without objection.

 

BEST ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE:

GOD’S WORD (Immutable, God breathed, Self-Authenticating. Providentially Protected and Preserved and Forever Settled in Heaven, Psalm 119:89) The Authorized King James Bible

Is It The Best?   David Hocking

 

David’s Summary  (8 min.) The problem is not English, but is which Greek text was used to translate the Greek into English. [The Textus Receptus (Received Text) was rendered from 5,321 extant Greek manuscripts known as the Majority Text  MT. These manuscripts overwhelmingly agree with one another and do not contain the heretical biases found in the Greek Text of Westcott & Hort  and Nestle & Aland. The Foundational support of these two Greek Texts rest upon only 55 hand-picked  manuscripts from the extant Majority Text instead of all 5,321.

Commitment to the Word of God

Long before the Conservative Resurgence, Dr. R.G. Lee was the Southern Baptist champion of biblical infallibility and inerrancy. In his sermon, “The Word of God – Not Broken and Not Bound,” first published in 1930, Dr. Lee proclaimed, “All who wrote are immortalized by their writing of this great Book [The Holy Bible],

 

… “supernatural in origin, divine in authorship, human in penmanship, infallible in authority, infinite in scope, universal in interest, personal in application, regenerative in power, inspired [God breathed] in totality.”

 

Dr Robert G. Lee preached a sermon Payday Someday   over 1,000 times and was the Senior Pastor of one of the first Megachurches, Bellevue Baptist Church, Memphis, Tennessee,
