And please tell me you know that Paul and many of those early christians wrote in Greek and not in English the original copies of the books of the bible were not anywhere close to English/American.
I'm trying to find out what the notations in my NIV 2011 version is showing me. At Acts 25:23, right under the header, it reads "26:12-18pp-- Ac 9:3-8; 22:6-11". What does this notation mean?
There wasn't part of the NIV manuscript a lot of people call them missing scriptures but the NIV manuscript did not have those scriptures like that King James Bible and the new King James Bible does a lot of the new modern Bibles don't have those scriptures. But they are in the footnotes so they're not missing check them out in the footnotes.
God created the Hebrew & Greek Bible, Man translated that into English, technically if you really want to read the real Bible you need to read it in Hebrew & Greek.
Dude... seriously where in God's Word does He say thou shalt preserve thine King James edition? And if the KJV is the only right version than what's wrong with the NKJV? It corrects mistakes in the KJV (which by the way there are mistakes, the 1611 had spelling errors... come on), as far as some mistakes go it corrects them by switching the greek text to the majority text (which is superior to the textus receptus).
I started with NIV for about 10 years the nkjv for about 2 year and now kjv for the past 3 years. HUGE difference for me. I find clues in kjv that aren't in the others. God knows and weighs the hearts so I'm not saying it keeps anyone from God. However, there are some humorous things...God has funny sense of humor which is not reflected in newer translations
this is so wrong the king james verison is the truth and the only truth because in the niv there are over 3000 mistakes and in the king james verison there are no mistakes because God created the king james verison
There's no mistakes in it and NIV Bible the manuscript that they found those scriptures are not found in that manuscript for the NIV Bible and a King James Bible is an old translation from 1611 that we do not speak that way that's why we have the new modern Bible for today's english.
With all due respect, please compare the NIV and KJV of John 16:25. There are many clues in the bible and modern translation has removed many of them. The scripture should lead someone seeking God to the book of Proverbs. We should read proverbs to find wisdom. Please read Proverbs 1. I stumbled upon this. I won a Ligionier study Bible nkjv. The church used niv and during a studying I found a huge difference in meaning. Then I compared nkjv to kjv and found more important clues (commandments) God is amazing and no one wiser.
The NIV 2011 is not based on ignorance the 2011 NIV Bible was updated because the English language has changed and proved they will be some changes from the 1984 NIV Bible to the 2011 NIV Bible but it's still the word of God.
