More Bible Defense Notes
By Prophet Jacob R. Blandford
· We are in the GREAT apostasy of 2 Thess. 2; 2 Tim. 3, 4; 1 Tim. 4; Matt. 24
· The Nicolaitans of Rev. 2:6, 15 are similar to the Catholic clergy and the ecumenical scholars: and they are the standard bearers and advocates for the corrupt Alexandrian text type. ¶ I heard Pastor Rod Parsley (Columbus, Ohio) say that he wouldn't give hardly anything for a god that didn't manifest himself. I agree. Well, the Lord Almighty DID manifest Himself to us by giving us a "PERFECT" (Psalm 19:7; James 1:25) copy of "the holy scriptures" (Rom. 1:2; 2 Tim. 3:15) in the latter-times universal language of English with the AKJV of 1611. That was a fulfillment of John 7:17, 14:21 because of the "exploits" (Dan. 11:32) of the Protestant reformers and the Protestant martyrs of the 16th century in Europe. ¶ The longest Chapter in the Bible is Psalms 119 with 176 verses. The whole Psalm is completely and totally about the word of God itself. You won't find 1/50th of that many verses in the Bible on any of the Roman Catholic 'sacraments'.
· The English AV of 1611 is an advanced revelation over the original Hebrew and Greek ¶ George Washington (1732-1799) was the 1st President of the United States. At his Inauguration service on Thursday, April 30th, 1789, Washington took an oath on a King James Holy Bible dated 1767. The Bible was opened at Genesis Chapter 49. The Masons are still to this day the custodians of that inauguration Bible. That Bible included the Apocrypha and other historical and astronomical data.
· A real lover of Jesus Christ will keep his words (John 14:23) ¶ The Textus Receptus means “the Received Text” and it comes from the Lord Jesus' own words in John 17:8. And Apostle Paul in II Thess. 2:13. Where are the words which true church members and the true church (the body of Christ) received? Well, if they are not in the TR manuscripts or a reliable TR translation (like the AV); you’re not going to find them! You’re certainly not going to find them in Rome! ¶ The phrase “tree of life” is found 10 times in the Holy Bible in Genesis 2:9, 3:22, 24; Prov. 3:18, 11:30, 13:12, 15:4; Rev. 2:7, 22:2, 14. We see from Proverbs 3:18 and 15:4 that the wisdom of God or the word of God is a “tree of life”. And in the Book of Revelation the tree of life is for HEALING. (See also Ezek. 47:12) Therefore the word of God or the wisdom of God HEALS. I personally believe (from the reference of Proverbs 11:30) that soul-winners will have, as a special reward, exclusive access to the Tree of Life in New Jerusalem (Rev. 22:14). However, in this current dispensation (the church age of Christ's grace) we obtain the fruit of the Spirit by coming to the tree of death viz. the Cross of Christ. Only by dying with Christ do we as Christians live with Him. (cf. 2 Cor. 13:4; 2 Tim. 2:12) ¶ “A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.” In Proverbs 25:11 the word of God is likened to GOLD. In the first editions of the Authorized Version of 1611, in the English language, the letter “u” was spelled with a “v”. (That’s why a “w” is called a double-u instead of a double-v.) The abbreviation for Authorized Version is AV. Replace the “V” with a “U” and you have “AU” which the atomic symbol for gold.
· James means Jacob, and Jacob was Israel. A good name for a commissioner of the preeminent Bible Translation (Rom. 3:2) ¶ God's word is called the "truth" in Daniel 10:21 and John 17:17. Therefore it is easy to believe in the preservation of God's word (which is the truth) based on Psalms 100:5 and Psalms 117:2 and Proverbs 22:12! Amen! Also, Jesus Himself promised the preservation of His words in Matthew 24:35, Mark 13:31, and Luke 21:33 (words of Christ in red). ¶ I can give you small sample of verses from the Proverbs that will tell you more about the Holy Bible than all the other apostate bible seminaries combined: those verses are Proverbs 10:20, 14:5, 25, 15:26, 17:8, 20:15, 22:12, 21, 28, 29:18. ¶ AV 1611 English Bible Translation. 16x11=176. 176 is the number of verses in the longest chapter in the Bible—Psalm 119 (which is totally devoted to the word of God itself). ¶ There are 678 verses in the Gospel of Mark in the AV. The modern 20th century versions cut off Mark's Gospel at verse 8 in Chapter 16. That makes 666 verses in thoses versions. ¶ Jewish rabbis believe God printed the Ten Commandments he gave Moses on sapphire stone. The reason behind this is because in Ex. Ch. 24, at the commencement and institution service of the Old Testament Law, the clergymen saw God on a sapphire stone throne. And it makes sense that God’s throne and his law would be made of the same type of stone. Also in the Book of Numbers the “blue” ribbons were a picture of God’s commandments. (see Num. 15:37-41) And yes sapphire is a BLUE stone. And in Proverbs 17:8 we read: “A gift is as a precious stone”. Well, President Abraham Lincoln said the Bible was God’s greatest “gift” to mankind. And this “gift” is a like a “precious stone” viz. sapphire stone. ¶ God only saves the rich (in faith). [see James 2:5] ¶ An Angel saved me from hell. (see Gen. 48:16; Ex. 23:20; Is. 63:9; Gal. 4:14) ¶ One of the biggest lies against the Holy Spirit perpetuated in the modern bibles is that Jesus was God’s “only Son” (John 3:16 NIV, RSV, NRSV, ESV). Wrong! He was God’s “only BEGOTTEN Son” (John 3:16 KJV). That’s refers to the Virgin birth. Other than that, God has billions of “sons”. The angels are called “sons” in Genesis 6, Job 1, Job 2, and Job 38. As a matter of fact, John’s Gospel tells you that we born-again Christians are “the sons of God” (John 1:12 KJV). That’s plural, not singular. The problem with the modern scholars is that they can’t read 5th grade English. ¶ Jachin (He shall establish) & Boaz (Strength) [see 1 Kings 7:21]. ¶ 'The AV is, we believe, the grand bulwark of Protestantism.' -J.C. Philpot (1802-1869)
· Matthew 7:13-15. Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, representing 400 deceived prophets, smote Micaiah (the lone true prophet) ¶ God doesn’t call the qualified. God qualifies the called. ¶ PRAYER: Forgive me Father, for I have sinned; and with your help, the devil won’t win. Amen. ¶ In the Millennium, you don’t get to "eat" unless you "worship" King Jesus. (Ps. 22:28-29) ¶ I Samuel Chapter 5—a picture of the Marian fathers bowing down to the Elizabethan Protestant (King James) Bible †
· Being meek or speaking Greek. (see Acts 21:37) Does the whole world have to speak Greek to know the Bible? Of course not. Hardly anyone in the world speaks the Greek of the New Testament today. But the universal language of the end times is English and God Almighty knew that prophetically back in 1611 Anno Domini. ¶ The Authorized Version of 1611 is that whet sword (see Ps. 7:12, 64:3) that has been purified seven times (Ps. 12:6, 119:140). This Sword of the Lord (the AV) has been bathed in heaven (Isaiah 34:5). ¶ It should be noted that the name 'James' is the Greek form of the Hebrew name 'Jacob'. And in the Book of Genesis, Jacob's name was changed to Israel. Therefore we have a most fitting verse for our Holy English Bible in Psalm 78: "For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should make known to their children" (verse 5). The "testimony" or Testaments were "established" in the King James Version in 1611. That my friend is when God "appointed" His laws for the English-speaking church! The "law" of God is equal to the 'word' of God, and "Israel" is a type of the Christian church. Moreover, the title page of the AV 1611 reads 'APPOINTED to be read in Churches'. ¶ The Roman Catholic religion is a demonically (1 Tim. 4:1) “devised” (1 Kings 12:33) religion: just like Jeroboam’s northern kingdom of defection and apostasy. Their official bible (RSVCE) is also “revised” and “devised” by men.
· “Is any thing too hard for the LORD?” (Gen. 18:14) And “...with God all things are possible.” (Matt. 19:26) God used fallible, sinful men to write the originals. What makes you think He can’t use fallible, sinful men to preserve, translate, publish, and propagate His holy Word. ¶ There are "benefits" for sticking with the LORD's Bible (KJV). Read about those "benefits" in Psalms 68:19, 103:2, 116:12. ¶ Those who equate what they know about fundamentalism only to be snake-handling—comes from a misguided, shallow, and superficial knowledge about what Christian fundamentalism actually is; and how it relates to the basics of the Holy Bible, and our earnest contention for the faith according to Jude verse 3.
· What in the world (maybe “the god of this world”) makes modern scholars think they can neglect the “most holy faith” the whole time they work on their mistranslation and then slap the word “Holy” on the cover of their bible (to make it look like an AV). Their bibles are unclean because of unbelief (see Haggai 2:10-14). ¶ The Gospel of Christ is the power of God unto salvation (Rom. 1:16 KJV)—not the Roman Catholic religion. ¶ The Old Testament is the New Testment CONCEALED. And the New Testament is the Old Testament REVEALED. ¶ Some scholars deny Christ’s Millennial reign. They are amillennialists. However, the Millennial or Thousand-Year Reign of Christ is clearly taught in Revelation 20. And there are many references to it in the Old Testament Prophets. Those who teach replacement theology believe the church has replaced Israel and so there will be no restoration of Israel. Even though it is clearly taught in both Testaments. What messes the scholars up is that many times in the Old Testament Messianic prophecies, both 1st and 2nd Comings of Christ can be found in the same passage. They assume Jesus Christ fulfilled everything in the 1st Coming and the church age. That’s why you have to “Study... rightly dividing the word of truth.” (2 Tim. 2:15 KJV) Jesus himself gave the greatest example of this phenomenon in Luke 4 when he read Isaiah 61 in the synagogue. The first part of Isaiah 61 is about Christ’s ministry at his first coming and then he shut the book right on the comma before “and the day of vengeance of our God”—that is the Second Coming! But he didn’t read that because obviously it wasn’t time for that yet, he still had to go to the Cross. So remember, many times in the Old Testament you have to keenly read the prophecy to tell if the Scripture applies to the 1st Coming or 2nd Coming. If you don’t do that, you’ll end up spiritualizing the passage taking all the promises to Israel and applying them to the church. Note: Many promises do apply to the church, but we are a spiritual body, Israel is a political nation and a theocratic state church.
· A NKJV or NRSV is no threat to the devil. However, that swift, razor-sharp, 1611 Protestant Blade is!!! (Eph. 6:17; Heb. 4:12) ¶ “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” (Rom. 1:16 KJV) According to Romans 1:16, “the gospel of Christ” is equivalent to (and interchangeable with) “the power of God”. Therefore, the “gospel” is “power” and “Christ” is “God”! Amen! But NO! Not in the antichrist modern versions: they've dropped “Christ” out of his own Bible in this verse (along with scores of other New Testament passages)! “Woe unto them!” (Jude 11) ¶ Jesus Christ is called “Faithful & True” in the Revelation 3:14, 19:11. The word “faithful” is found 54 times in the New Testament & the word “true” is found 54 times in the New Testament. ¶ “Jerusalem” is found 144 times in the New Testament. See the measurements of New Jerusalem in Rev. 21:17. ¶ Jesus Christ is the 77th from God (see Luke 3:23-38). On the Sabbath day (which is the 7th day [see Ex. 20:8-11]) he quotes the 7777th verse in the Bible. (Matthew 12:2-4; Mark 2:25-26; Luke 6:1-5; 1 Sam. 21:4). There are 77 mentions of the “sabbath” in the Old Testament (including the title of Psalm 92). Jesus makes 77 “Verily I say unto you” statements in the Gospels. The Lord Jesus Christ proclaimed himself to be the Lord of the Sabbath (Mark 2:28) and the whole earth will be at rest (Is. 14:3, 7) for 1,000 years (Rev. 20) which will be the 7th day of human history (2 Pet. 3:8). ¶ Psalm 92 "A Psalm or Song for the Sabbath day." The Sabbath was a day of rest given to Israel (Ex. 20:8-11; Neh. 9:14). It commemorates God resting on the 7th day after 6 days of creation. (Gen. 2:1-3) In verse 4 of Psalm 92 we have the 7th appearance of "thy work" in the Bible. And again in verse 5, the 7th appearance of "thy works" in the Bible.
· Plus, regarding translations: versions are a necessity because the two Testaments were in two different languages. ¶ Psalm 136 is antiphonal and is called the 'great Hallel' by orthodox Jews. The Hallel consists of Psalms 113-118 and is believed to be sung by the Lord Jesus Christ and his apostles at the Last Supper (Matt. 26:30; Mark 14:26). This was the Jewish Messiah reciting HEBREW Scriptures with Jewish disciples at Passover (a Jewish festival [see Ex. 12]). That's one reason why the King James translators utilized the Hebrew Masoretic Old Testament Text instead of the Greek LXX. ¶ Galatians is the 9th Book in the New Testament Canon. There are 9 letters in the word "Galatians". The Epistle to the Galatians discusses the 9 fruits of the Spirit. There are 9 letters in "HOLY BIBLE" and 9 letters in "KING JAMES". The King James Version was translated in Anno Domini 1611—1+6+1+1=9. There are 9 words in the phrase "Verily our lord king David hath made Solomon king." (1 Kings 1:43 KJV) King Solomon was the greatest type of King Jesus in the Bible. ¶ "My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee. Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye. Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart." (Proverbs 7:1-3) God tells us to keep his "commandments" as "the apple of thine eye", "write them upon... thine heart", and "bind them upon thy FINGERS". How many fingers do you have? Ten—one for each of the TEN Commandments. (Ex. 20; Deut. 5) ¶ Our Lord Jesus Christ likened the word of God to bread (Matt. 4:4). And it is important to have that bread daily (Matt. 6:11). When the Levites made the showbread for the tabernacle they baked 12 loaves. And set them up six beside six. (Lev. 24:5-6) Six and six. Like 66 Books in our Protestant Biblical canon. ¶ King Solomon's throne in 1 Kings 10 & 2 Chr. 9 had six steps. With 12 lions. (12 tribes of Israel and 12 apostles of the Lamb.) 6 on the left and 6 on the right. That's 66 as the Protestant Canon. The lion is a symbol of the king. KING Solomon and KING James. Similar to the shewbread in Leviticus 24:5-6, again 6 & 6 or 66. (Matt. 4:4, 6:11) ¶ Zephaniah is a powerful book. One of the 12 minor prophets. Zephaniah 3:8 is apocalyptic: "Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy." God said he would “assemble the kingdoms”. Interesting the world’s governing body today is called the United Nations General ASSEMBLY! Our world leaders are fulfilling Bible prophecy by bringing about their own destruction. Bind them in bundles and burn them (Matt. 13:30). For an even bigger laugh look at the Isaiah wall at the UN headquarters in New York and see how they quoted Isaiah 2:4. It should have been Joel 3:10-12! All this was foretold by Isaiah: “…there shall be a bridle in the jaws of the people, causing them to err.” (Is. 30:28) ¶ "And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down new wine…" (Joel 3:18). The "new" wine is the "new" Testament Lord's Supper. We will drink it in our Lord’s presence in the Millennium (Rev. 20). And thus fulfill St. Matthew 26:29, “But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.”

· Who told you the KJB had errors in it? The Holy Spirit didn’t. You aren’t following God. You must be following a religious pervert of the devil. ¶ According to Romans 12:2, the Christian is NOT to be conformed to the world, but rather transformed by the word of God. Modern bible revisionists believe the exact opposite: they believe the word of God should be transformed into the world’s conforms. Why would you use the world as an example? Most of what they speak is cursing, death, idolatry, unbelief, darkness, lies, murder, war, sex, and greed. They don’t have any light and Satan is their god. (2 Cor. 4:4) ¶ So God used two occultists (Westcott and Hort) to correct his “record” (1 John 5:10, 11 AV 1611) to mankind which the Holy Spirit used through church age Bible-believers, Protestant Reformers, evangelists, and missionaries? Westcott & Hort couldn’t explain the preponderance of the Majority Text manuscripts so they invented a Lucian Recension Theory which church history is completely silent about. And if there had been such a thing, there would have been a huge uproar among God’s people. So basically it comes down to this: we are supposed to believe that God wants us to have a watered-down, blasphemous bible; and Satan wants us to have an accurate, theologically superior bible. God forbid!
· Rev. 22:18-19 KJV ¶ Towards the end of "The Translators to the Reader" preface, the 1611 translators forewarned you TO NOT SELL YOUR BIRTHRIGHT AS EASU! (Hebrews 12:16) And if you didn't know: the birthright to the English-speaking Christian Church is the Authorized Version of the Holy Bible!!! The mess of pottage is the corrupted bible versions which apostates have $ sold out for. (1 Timothy 6:10) Afterall, 'their god is their belly' (see Romans 16:17-18)
· Num. 23:19 and Rom. 3:4. Beware of false and lying bible teachers! Watch out! (Phil. 3:2)
· Biblical words removed such as “doctrine”, “fornication”, “testament”, “Jehovah”, “Godhead”, “remission”, “dispensation”, “disposition”, “hell”, “blood”, “propitiation”, “sodomite”
· Jesus Christ’s names and titles removed scores of times
· Jesus Christ divinity downgraded or denied over and over again. ¶ Isaiah 42:1-4 gives us an Old Testament prophecy of Jesus Christ, which He later fulfilled and Saint Matthew recorded it in Matthew 12:17-21. In Is. 42:3 we read about "judgment unto truth". And that same Scripture is interpreted by Matthew as "judgment unto victory" (Matt. 12:20). Therefore "truth" equals "victory"! And both stem from "judgment". Therefore, if you want some victory: get some truth viz. the Great & Terrible Book of Truth & Judgment (AV 1611).
· Ecumenicism, the modern bible movement, end-time deception and delusions (see 2 Thess. 2:1-12) are all working together toward the one-world government and religion of the Antichrist. (Rev. Ch. 13) (I pray God Almighty raptures me out first, in Jesus Christ’s name, Amen.)
· This tidal wave of apostate bibles began with Westcott and Hort. ¶ Top 2 Reasons Why Modern Bible Versions Are an Embarrassment to God. (1) They're based on a text that God supposedly hid from his own children for over 1,500 years and only revealed it to liberal (and apostate) textual critics in the 19th century. Which means they cared more about God's words than he did. (2) Sometimes they say and mean different and even contradictory things. Which makes your God the author of confusion. In short, they make your Lord look incompetent. "Which Bible Would Jesus Use?" By Jack McElroy www.chick.com
· The KJV is the innocent Bible (as innocent as the Lamb of God). And it has been attacked with vicious unrighteousness and unjustly accused by thousands of slanderous idiots. ¶ "The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty." (Psalm 29:4) "Where the word of a king is, there is power" (Ecc. 8:4) The KING JAMES VERSION is the only Bible comissioned by a Christian KING. Being kingly—and according to Ps. 29:4 & Ecc. 8:4—it is the prescription for POWER (no other bible version remotely compares). And just to top it of it has the "majesty" of a King. Like the majesty of King Jesus, King David, King Hezekiah, King Josiah, King Solomon, King Asa, King Jehoshaphat, and oh yeah KING JAMES. Also notice "power" has been removed from the modern versions in John 1:12. Also, no longer are we "the sons of God" (John 1:12 AKJV) we're 'children of God' (John 1:12 NKJV).
· When you ask me, ‘Who “authorized” the King James Version?’ You are fulfilling Matthew 21:23; Mark 11:28; and Luke 20:2.
· You say some of the New Testament was written in Aramaic. Wrong. The Received Text is a Koine Greek Text from the beginning of Matthew to the end of Revelation. But I guess you’re going to say Matthew’s Gospel was originally written in Aramaic so Peter’s name will come out as a “rock” in Matthew, so you can support his successive chair at Rome, because you’re an ecumenist and infidel with impure motives. However, when Jesus spake Aramaic in Matthew 27:46, the Apostle Matthew Levi translated it into the Greek—because that was the language the rest of the Gospel was originally written in! ¶ I know Erasmus restored the original Greek of St. Matthew’s Gospel in 1516 Anno Domini. I can’t read Greek, but when I read Matthew in the English of the AV, it comes out clear as a bell. Just like Mark, Luke, and John do. Matthew in the King James Bible does not appear by any means to be a translation of a translation. I believe what the title page to the King James New Testament says, “TRANSLATED OUT OF THE ORIGINAL GREEK”. ¶ Moreover, I have a Strong’s concordance which gives you concise listings of the all the Greek words in the New Testament in the AV, including Matthew. ¶ Plus, the inscription on Christ’s Cross was written in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin (see Luke 23:38; John 19:20). Those are Biblical languages of: the Old Testament (Hebrew), the New Testament (Greek), the first main Bible translation of the primitive church in the Roman Empire (Latin). ARAMAIC IS NOT LISTED ON THE CROSS! Also, you have the original Biblical languages of the two Testaments listed in Revelation 9:11.
· In an article titled ‘The NRSV vs. the ESV’ Dr. Laurence M. Vance observed that in the very first chapter of the Greek New Testament, there are errors in Jesus Christ’s genealogical record. (see v. 7, 10) Viz. in the NRSV and ESV. The AV’s genealogical record is 100% correct.
· In the NRSV New Testament, we find the word “comrades” (Rev. 12:10, 19:10, 22:9 NRSV). Another term for this word is ‘communist’ in the Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary. This is no surprise. The RSV is the parent translation to the NRSV. So read what Dr. William Grady said on page 280 of ‘Final Authority’ (highlighted portion).
· 64,000 words aren’t important??? You never read Deut. 4:2 or Rev. 22:18-19!!! The NIV (1973) and NRSV (1989) are modern restorations of the 1582 Jesuit Rheims bible—and they are all equivalent to the JW's NWT! Which are all based on the Westcott and Hort Greek text.
· The King James Bible is the true Holy Bible. The only argument against that Book is a bad life. You’re against that Book because that Book is against you! The Bible will keep you from sin or sin will keep you from the Bible. ¶ If you understand street slang you'll know what I mean by this: King James was a gangster! That's why street preachers use the KJV!
· If I know anything about God, it is that he is a God of miracles and power. So shouldn’t your Bible be miraculous and powerful too??? Everyone knows that the best and most powerful preachers from England and America used the King James Bible—because the AV’s inspired words are filled with power (cf. Ecc. 8:4). The nature of the 1611 is miraculous also, because it came from the Protestant Reformation, where the Holy Spirit miraculously moved in lives of so many Bible-believing Christians—giving them the rebirth and salvation through faith in the gospel of Christ.
· You don’t believe in the Biblical miracles??? I can you show you one right now—the fact that God Almighty is so slow to anger that He doesn’t cast you off the face and this earth and cast your soul into hell for doubting His Word; and for being an unbelieving infidel!!! It’s miraculous that the wise God has been as merciful as He has to such a sinful idiot as you!!!
· ¶ You’re against that Book because that Book is against you. ¶ The only argument against that Book is a bad life. ¶ The Bible will either keep you from sin or sin will keep you from the Bible.¶ Other books are for information, the Bible is for transformation.¶ You read other books, the Bible reads you. ¶ Men don’t reject the Bible because it has contradictions; men reject the Bible because it contradicts them. ¶ Every born-again Christian’s rebirth since Pentecost for the last 2,000 years is a prefigure of the “regeneration” of the earth which will occur at Jesus Christ’s 2nd Coming (cf. Matt. 19:28; Titus 3:5). ¶ When scholars use the alibi for ‘updating’ the King James because it has ‘archaic language’: that is bogus. They didn’t just update the language, they perverted and ruined the Bible. They didn’t just give us modern speech: they removed Jesus’ names and titles scores of times, they removed hundreds of doctrinal passages and phrases, the deleted words and added words (Rev. 22:18-19), they even removed 17 New Testament verses, including the Trinitarian Verse 1 John 5:7. (If you don't believe me: get a copy of and read 'Look What's Missing' by David W. Daniels © 2009 Chick Publications.) It’s like a car repair saying, I’m just going to put some air in your tires, change the oil, and pump some gas into the tank. But then he takes out the engine, brakes, steering wheel, and odometer. And so your left with your ‘car’ after the repairman ‘fixes’ it. But the King James never really needed to be fixed at all. The truth is YOU needed to be fixed. Nobody corrects God. Nobody corrects the KJV. The Elizabethan English doesn’t need to be removed because it is Biblical English and that is how the Holy Spirit gave it to us. You ought to be thankful God gave us his word instead of rebelling against him. ¶ There are only two reasons why I'm not a Roman Catholic: (1) I have a copy of the Bible and (2) I can read it. ¶ The most anti-Catholic book ever written is the Holy Bible. ¶ Remember: Rome scourged and nailed Jesus Christ. Rome inprisoned Peter and Paul. Rome murdered James. And the Roman Empire was the greatest threat to the 1st and 2nd century church. Rome was anti-Semitic to the core. ¶ If you study the Book of Daniel closely you can clearly see the formation of the (political) Roman Empire AND the (spiritual) Roman Catholic Church. [Particularly in Chapters 2, 7, 8, and 11.] ¶ A Catholic once asked a Protestant “Where was your religion before the Reformation?” The Protestant answered “In a place where you’ll never find yours.” The Catholic asked “Where’s that?” The Protestant answered “The Bible.” ¶ An open Bible means a faithful heart. A closed Bible means a hardened heart.
· In Joel 3:18 and Amos 9:13 the Holy Spirit prophesies about the farming conditions during the Millennial reign of Jesus Christ. The Spirit says the mountains will bring forth “new wine” and “sweet wine”. (The marginal note at Amos 9:13 in the original 1611 reads “Or, new wine.” And that marginal note at Amos 9:13 also has a cross-reference to Joel 3:18. And Joel 3:18 has a cross-reference to Amos 9:13.) Therefore both Joel 3:18 and Amos 9:13 will be a fulfillment of Matthew 26:29 and Mark 14:25. If you think there will be alcoholics and drunkenness around during the Millennium; then you have no perception of the righteousness of the holy Judeo-Christian kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. That will be millennial new wine that will be “the pure blood of the grape” (Deut. 32:14). [See also Genesis 49:12.] The new wine then will be as pure as the Authorized King James New Testament. (see Ps. 12:6, 119:140; Prov. 30:5) That’s why “the new testament” and the ‘new wine’ are both present at the Last Supper in the Synoptic Gospels. Amen. Also, remember that according to the Bible, “new wine is found in the cluster” (Is. 65:8). By that definition, it would exclude the fermentation process; and thus it is grape juice or as Moses saith “the pure blood of the grape” (Deut. 32:14). The Last Supper was a Jewish Passover meal. They had unleavened bread and unfermented wine: because leaven and fermentation represent sin (1 Cor. 5:6-7; Gal. 5:9)—and Jesus was sinless (see 2 Cor. 5:21; 1 Pet. 2:22; Heb. 4:15, 7:26)—therefore the Lord Himself was "unleavened". Amen.
¶ It took King Solomon 7 years to build the Temple. Construction began in the 4th year and finished in the 11th year. "In the fourth year was the foundation of the house of the LORD laid, in the month Zif: And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it." (1 Kings 6:37-38 KJV)
Accordingly, it also took 7 years for the King James Bible to be translated. King James commissioned 47 translators to create the King James Version. It began in 1604 and was completed and published in 1611. 4 to 11 for a total of 7 years just like Solomon's Temple.
