Bible Verses Removed
by Terry Watkins
“Man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.” [Matthew 4:4]
Most people believe the new versions are just “harmless” updating of words and made easier to understand.
Nothing could be further from the Truth!
Jesus Christ, in Luke 8:11-12, tells the parable of the sower and the seed:
“Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. . . then cometh the devil, and TAKETH AWAY the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.”. [Luke 8:11-12]
The new versions “take away” complete verses from the words of God. And as with Eve (see Genesis 3:1), it s all done very subtle.
The average reader would never know it happened!
