1st
Timothy 3:16,
“And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was
manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached
unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.”
Take a look at 1st Timothy 3:16b in the
inspired King James Bible, versus the English Standard Version (ESV)
that Bob Jones University sanctions, uses and sells; and kindly take a
look at the Easy-To-Read Version (ERV) that Harvest Baptist Church on
Guam sanctions, uses and sells; and take a look at several other
modern PERversions...
KJB - “God
was manifest in the flesh”
ESV - “He was manifested in the
flesh”
ERV - “Christ was shown to us in
human form”
NRSV - “He was revealed in
flesh”
NIV - “He appeared in the flesh”
RSV - “He was manifested in the
flesh”
TLB - “Christ, who came to earth
as a man”
NCV - “He was shown to us in a
human body”
NLT - “Christ was revealed in a
human body”
TLV - “He was revealed in the
flesh”
HCSB - “He was manifested in the
flesh”
CEB - “he was revealed as a
human”
MSG - “He appeared in a human
body”
VOICE - “He was revealed in the
flesh”
Where is God?
Where is God?
I said where is God? They removed
Him!
Kindly, with powdered sugar on top—SHAME ON BOB
JONES UNIVERSITY! And kindly, with candy sprinkles—SHAME ON HARVEST
BAPTIST CHURCH ON GUAM!!! Shame on all of them for promoting this
ungodly corrupt filth!!! The Devil's Bible versions have REMOVED GOD
FROM 1ST TIMOTHY 3:16!!! Where's Waldo? Oh sorry! Where's God? I could have quoted the same corrupt rendering
of 1st Timothy 3:16 from several dozen more PERversions of God's Word,
which all remove “GOD.” The King James Bible (in no uncertain terms)
proclaims THE TRUTH that GOD was manifest (revealed) in the flesh (the
incarnate body of the Son of God, Jesus Christ). ...
John 1:1-3 and 14, “In the beginning was
the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word
was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All
things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that
was made. ...And the Word was made flesh,
and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the
only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.”
Look again for yourself, how Satan's Bible revisions (all from
Westcott and Hort's corrupt 1881: The New Testament In The
Original Greek), change 1st Timothy 3:16 to eliminate the deity of
Jesus Christ! It is wickedness!!! Did you know that the Jehovah's
Witness
“New World Translation” (NWT) was also translated from Westcott and
Hort's Greek translation? That means if you are using the ESV or the
ERV, you are using the same corrupt Bible translation as the Jehovah's
Witnesses! Do you know why JW's choose the Alexandrian text? It is
because they deny Jesus' deity and the Godhead, so they are naturally
going to choose a corrupt Bible text that assaults and removes these
doctrines. Am I such a bad person for refuting this heresy, so
despised that Harvest Baptist Church on Guam has banned me from
returning to their church family since 2014? I very much love them all,
but they don't love THE TRUTH!!!
Check this out from Colossians 3:1, “If ye
then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above,
where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.”
How can Jesus sit on the Father's right hand, if they are the SAME
person? Obviously they cannot! Clearly, the Son and the Father sit upon
their own separate thrones in Heaven. I don't claim to understand the
Trinity; the Bible plainly calls the Godhead “the mystery.”
Colossians 2:2, “That their hearts might be comforted, being knit
together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of
understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery
of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;” Thankfully, we
don't need to understand everything to please God, we simply need to
fear and obey Him (Ecclesiastes 12:13-14).
One of the associate pastors of Harvest Baptist
Church called me into the church office to scold me in 2014, berating me
for telling church members that the modern Bible versions are corrupted
by Satan. Sadly, the church as of 2020 still upholds this errant
position on the Holy Bible, sanctioning the
Alexandrian Bible PERversions! That clown's excuse was that Harvest
has at least 18 bilingual groups who cannot understand the King James
Bible, so they need the modern PERversions! Well, from what I just
showed you from 1st John 5:7, do you think those bilingual folks
will understand the Godhead? Not a chance! Oh, it gets much worse! From
the ERV, here is Romans 1:20a, “There are things about God that
people cannot see—his eternal power and all that makes
him God.” Whoa! Let me now quote to you the three
Scripture passages, from the inspired King James Bible, which teach the
blessed doctrine of the “Godhead”...
Acts 17:29, “Forasmuch then as we are the
offspring of God, we ought not to think that the
Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by
art and man's device.”
Romans 1:20, “For the invisible things of
him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being
understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and
Godhead; so that they are without
excuse:”
Colossians 2:8-9, “Beware lest any man
spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of
men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. For in
him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead
bodily.”
Did you see Romans 1:20? The Easy-To-Read
Version (ERV) changed “Godhead” to “all that makes him God.”
Folks, those two renderings are light years apart!!! The word
“Godhead” refers to the triune nature of God, but the ERV completely
obliterates the concept. We're talking about the omnipotent inspired
words of almighty God here! Take
a look at the
Greek and you'll find one word, θειότης, which the King James
translators rendered as “Godhead.” The stupid phrase “all that
makes him God” in the ERV doesn't come anywhere near what the Greek
says. In other words, you are being deceived folks!!! Get you an
inspired King James Bible!!!!!!!
One of the biggest threats today to the doctrine
of the Trinity (Godhead) is the counterfeit modern Bible revisions...
ABOVE: I am just
making a humble observation. I love the folks at Harvest, more than
they know. I pray for them always, and wish we could be friends, but
they are deceived by corruptible seed!
The Devil's counterfeit modern Bible revisions
do great harm to the doctrine of Christ, changing these key passages
about the deity of Jesus, and in many cases completely remove the
concept of the Godhead (i.e., Trinity).
Jesus is Almighty God
Dear
reader, THE foundational truth upon which all of Christianity is based
is the TRINITY! Everything falls apart when the Godhead is dismantled.
The Devil fully understands this. The Bible warns in no uncertain terms
against “ANOTHER JESUS.” 2nd Corinthians 11:3-4, “But I fear, lest by any
means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds
should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he
that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom
we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not
received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well
bear with him.”
For example: The Jehovah's Witnesses
(JW's) religious cult (founded by Charles Taze Russell in 1874) have
ANOTHER JESUS. Here is a heretical quote from their very own website...
We have faith that Jesus
came to earth from heaven and gave his perfect human life as a
ransom sacrifice. (Matthew 20:28) His death and resurrection make it
possible for those exercising faith in him to gain everlasting life.
(John 3:16) We also believe that Jesus is now ruling as King of
God’s heavenly Kingdom, which will soon bring peace to the entire
earth. (Revelation 11:15) However, we take Jesus
at his word when he said: “The Father is greater than I am.” (John
14:28) So we do not worship Jesus, as we do not believe that he is
Almighty God. [emphasis added]

Did you read that folks? JW's do not believe
that Jesus is almighty God, but Oh how wrong they are! Perhaps you ask
(as do many skeptics) where in the Holy Bible does Jesus claim to be
God? I am so glad you asked my non-feathered friend. One irrefutable
passage of Scripture is found in John 8:57-58, “Then said the Jews
unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham
was, I am.” To understand this Bible
passage you need to read Exodus 3:14, “And God said unto Moses, I AM
THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel,
I AM hath sent me unto you.” God told
Moses to tell the Hebrews that “I AM” sent him to deliver them
out of bondage from Egypt. So by claiming to be the “I AM” in
John 8:58, Jesus was directly claiming to be God almighty!
What's that, you what another Bible verse? Well,
you got it my friend. Take a look at John 10:33, “The Jews answered
him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but
for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.”
How much clearer could the Holy Scriptures be that Jesus Himself
claimed to be God almighty? The Jews falsely accused Jesus of the sin
(and Jewish crime) of “BLASPHEMY” for claiming to be God! Don't miss
that! The Jews perfectly understood that Jesus DID in fact claim to be
God, and it made them angry. It made them angry because they were
unbelievers! To the unsaved man, Jesus is merely a historical figure.
Many religious people honor
Martin Luther King Jr. as a famous Baptist preacher, but in fact,
Mr. King was a reprobate unbeliever, who
openly
denied Jesus' deity, virgin birth and bodily resurrection. Sadly,
that means Mr. King is burning in Hell forever, having died in his sins
without Jesus Christ. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. had ANOTHER JESUS!!!
Another irrefutable passage of Scripture,
showing where Jesus claimed to be God is found in John 14:1, “Let not
your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe
also in me.” If Jesus were not God almighty, then He
would have been guilty of the sins of blasphemy and idolatry. Here is some solid
Scriptural support for what I am teaching, to reinforce the fact that
Jesus would have been committing a very wicked sin, to make such a claim
in John 14:1 if He were not God almighty. ...
Acts 12:21-23, “And upon a set day Herod,
arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an oration
unto them. And the people gave a shout,
saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man.
And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him,
because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of
worms, and gave up the ghost.”
It wasn't even Herod who professed to be God, it
was the people, they hailed Herod as if he were a god. But Herod didn't
pass that praise toward God, he kept it for himself, and the Holy Spirit
smote him with parasitic worms. We can clearly see how great of a sin it
is to receive the praises of men, and fail to forward it to God. Yet,
our Lord allowed people to worship Him, and didn't stop them. Matthew
8:2-3, “And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped
him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou
clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.” Jesus never
corrected anyone when they worshipped Him, because He is almighty God!
What saith the Scripture? ...
Revelation 22:8-9, “And I John saw these
things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen,
I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel
which shewed me these things. Then saith he unto me,
See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant,
and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings
of this book: worship God.”
The apostle John worshipped the angel, but was
stopped and rebuked for it. The angel told John to WORSHIP GOD! Jesus
never stopped anyone from worshipping Him. The Bible tells us about a
Canaanite woman, whose daughter was grievously vexed of a devil. The
distraught mother came to Jesus and worshipped Him in Matthew 15:25,
“Then came she and worshipped him, saying,
Lord, help me.” And again in another passage of Scripture, we read
that the mother of Zebedee's children and her sons worshipped Jesus.
Matthew 20:20, “Then came to him the mother of Zebedee's children with
her sons, worshipping him, and desiring a
certain thing of him.” Now dear friend (and this is so tragic and
makes me angry at the Devil), take a look at how the English Standard
Version (ESV)—which Bob Jones University shamefully sanctions, uses and
sells—corrupts these two passages:
ESV - “But she came
and knelt before him, saying, 'Lord,
help me.'”
ESV - “Then the mother of the sons of
Zebedee came up to him with her sons, and kneeling
before him she asked him for something.”
That
is so wrong and wicked! You can kneel before a king without worshipping
him. A man can kneel in a marriage proposal to his girlfriend without
worshipping her. Let me ask you a very important question: Why would
Bible translators change, weaken and remove the word worship? Why
did they change it to a mere knelt? In lieu of all the other key
passages of Scripture that they've changed, concerning Jesus' deity and
the Godhead, the answer is very obvious—the Devil wants to corrupt God's
Word, destroy the
churches, and lead people into Hell!
Professor Gail Riplinger
(MP3 interview called: New Age Bible Versions) is
right, who said: They are secularizing the Bible! That is, the Devil's crowd are
changing the Bible from a theological Book into a religious book!
So in summary of the Scripture passages I just
shared with you, we see clear evidence that it is a horrible sin to
worship anybody other than God. Revelation 22:9b says: “WORSHIP
GOD.” Yet we see that a leper worshipped Jesus in Matthew 8:2, and
the Lord allowed him to do it; but in Revelation 22:8-9 the apostle John
worshipped the angel, and the angel stopped and rebuked him for it,
telling him to WORSHIP GOD. This is clear evidence that Jesus is God,
because only God is to be worshipped. When Herod accepted worship from
people, the Holy Spirit killed him! In John 14:1 Jesus told the people
that if they believed in God, they should also believe in Him. Again,
this is clear evidence of Christ's deity.
Dear reader, JESUS IS ALMIGHTY GOD! I could show
you many more precious Scripture passages. The deity of Christ is
unmistakable in Scripture. Our blessed Savior came to this earth, born
of a virgin, as God in the flesh. Jesus is not God the Father in person,
but He is God the Father in the unity of the Godhead. Deuteronomy
6:4-5, “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all
thy soul, and with all thy might.” In their ignorance, Muslims
accuse Christians of being “polytheists” for their belief in the
Trinity, but they are wrong in their understanding. We don't believe in
multiple gods as Christians, we believe that there is only one God, Who
exists in three persons (namely: God the Father, God the Son and God the
Holy Ghost).
And that is the title of this article: “FOR
THERE ARE THREE” (AND THESE THREE ARE ONE). Beware of the Devil's
counterfeit Bible versions which the ungodly folks at Bob Jones
University promote, and the ungodly folks at Harvest Baptist Church on
Guam promote, and countless other apostate religious organizations today
promote. In so doing they are pulling on the same rope as the Devil. I
say that kindly, speaking THE TRUTH in love (Ephesians 4:15).
Conclusion
Satan's greatest spiritual battle advancement,
over the past century, has been the modern Bible revisions. It is
shocking and mind boggling, that tens of thousands of churches today are
okay with having DOZENS of different Bible versions. If the King James
Bible were the only Bible, and all of a sudden a Bible publisher
introduced 100 new and improved Bible versions ALL AT ONCE, every
churchgoer in the world would have adamantly rejected them!!! But
because the Devil has introduced them ONE AT A TIME, incrementally over
the past century, churches haven't perceived THE THREAT!
Independent Baptist churches are helping people
to deny the Trinity, by accepting the Devil's modern Bible versions! 1st John 5:7, “For there are three that bear record in
heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are
one.” Now dear reader (and Oh this is so ungodly and disgusting),
here is what the English Standard Version (ESV) says, which Bob Jones
University shamefully sanctions, uses and
sells—“For there are three that testify:” What the hell is
that? Where's the rest of the Bible verse? My God in Heaven, what is
going on at Bob Jones? Why do they bid Godspeed to that Satanic garbage?
Harvest Baptist Church on Guam is just as guilty, promoting the
corruptible seed of the Alexandrian Bible PERversions!
By removing the important words, “AND THESE
THREE ARE ONE,” from 1st John 5:7b, the modern Bible
revisions render this Scripture meaningless and ineffective concerning
the Godhead. You need to understand that, effectively, to attack the
doctrine of the Godhead is a direct assault upon the deity of the Lord
Jesus Christ. Thank God for the inspired King James Bible that uplifts,
honors and exalts the precious Lord Jesus Christ, my God and Savior!!!
