Are there no errors in your Bible?
Is all Christianity acceptable to God the Father and to Jesus His only begotten Son?
Do the additions to the Bible through millennia have no adverse effect on the theology of the Bible?
Is there no such thing as false religion if it is backed by the Bible?
Is the doctrine of the Trinity both true and false?
Is there such a things a purgatory in the Bible?
Is the word infallible found in the Bible?
Is the belief of once saved always saved actually biblical?
If the Word of God is truth then why would it ever need to be changed, removed or added to?
What did Jesus say about His Word, the Holy Scriptures?
Matthew 5:18 (FOGB)
18 For amen, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.
Matthew 24:35 (FOGB)
35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.
John 5:24 (FOGB)
24 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.
People who believe that the Bible is the infallible Word of God, are they not worshipping the creation rather than the Creator?
The Bible, the Word of God, has been put into the hands of men, to translate, print and explain.
The Bible is like the earth that is subject to the dominion of men to do what they will with it.
Some use it wisely. Some abuse it.
It is exceedingly difficult to translate the Bible from its original language into another language without error and without loosing any of its meaning or adding to its meaning.
Deuteronomy 4:2 (FOGB)
2 You shall not add to the word which I command you, nor take from it, that you may keep the commandments of the Lord your God (yhvh alhykm) which I command you.
Proverbs 30:5–6 (FOGB)
5 Every word of God (alvh) is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him. 6 Do not add to His words, Lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar.
Revelation 22:18–19 (FOGB)
18 For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to these things, God (theos) will add to him the plagues that are written in this book;19 and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God (theos) shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
Many authentic Bible scholars agree that there are words and passages that have crept into the Bibles through the ages, that there are doctrines that have also crept in that were not in the original scripts or teachings.
It is my belief that these changes ought never to have happened. They do not belong in the Bible.
2 Timothy 3:16–17 (FOGB)
16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God (theopnustos), and is profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness,17 that the man of God (theou) may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
Colossians 2:8 (FOGB)
8 Beware lest anyone take you captive through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ.
Romans 15:4 (FOGB)
4 For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the perseverance and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.
Matthew 4:4 (FOGB)
4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God (theou).’ ”
Matthew 5:17–18 (FOGB)
17 “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.18 For amen, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.
I spent a few years removing the errors and additions to the Bible that have crept in through millennia. I also restored the name of God as often as it appears in the original scriptures as best I could. I produced what is probably most accurately called a restoration of the Holy Scriptures. To my knowledge, it is the most error free version available in the English language. I call this version “Family Of God Bible.”
An ePub version of “Family Of God Bible” is available on my website, Jacquesgauvin.com, free of charge. Donations are welcome.
