1 Corinthians 9:17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.

Ephesians 1:10 that in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:

Ephesians 3:2 if ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward

Colossians 1:25 whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God;

Do you believe the Bible?

The Bible says:

Psalms 12:6-7 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.

Mark 13:31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

Do you believe God has preserved His words?


If so, where are God’s words preserved?


Are God’s words preserved in every Bible version?


Is any Bible version just as good as any other?


What if the versions say DIFFERENT or even OPPOSITE things?


Can you point to which Bible version has preserved His words?


For example look at the following verse in the King James Bible and compare to other translations — they say the OPPOSITE:


Hosea 11:12 KJB but Judah yet ruleth with God, and is faithful with the saints.

Hosea 11:12 NIV and Judah is unruly against God, even against the faithful Holy One.

Hosea 11:12 AMP Ephraim surrounds Me with lies And the house of Israel with deceit; Judah is also unruly against God, Even against the faithful Holy One.


Hosea 11:12 MSG Ephraim tells lies right and left. Not a word of Israel can be trusted. Judah, meanwhile, is no better, addicted to cheap gods.

Hosea 11:12 NASB Ephraim surrounds Me with lies And the house of Israel with deceit; Judah is also unruly against God, Even against the Holy One who is faithful.

also this verse:

Phil 2:6 KJB Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

Phil 2:6 ASV who, existing in the form of God, counted not the being on an equality with God a thing to be grasped

Phil 2:6 ESV who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped

Phil 2:6 NIV Who, being in the very nature of God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,


These are only a few examples of different versions saying something OPPOSITE to the KJB.


They say opposite things.  They cannot all be right…  If they say different things, they do not all say the same thing…


Which Bible is right?

Revelation 3:7-8 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;  I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.

Interestingly, looking at the churches in Revelation from the church age view, the King James Bible was written during the age of the Philadelphia church.

Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that steal my words every one from his neighbour. Jeremiah 23:30

Isaiah 44:9-20
9 They that make a graven image are all of them vanity; and their delectable things shall not profit; and they are their own witnesses; they see not, nor know; that they may be ashamed.
10 Who hath formed a god, or molten a graven image that is profitable for nothing?
11 Behold, all his fellows shall be ashamed: and the workmen, they are of men: let them all be gathered together, let them stand up; yet they shall fear, and they shall be ashamed together.
12 The smith with the tongs both worketh in the coals, and fashioneth it with hammers, and worketh it with the strength of his arms: yea, he is hungry, and his strength faileth: he drinketh no water, and is faint.
13 The carpenter stretcheth out his rule; he marketh it out with a line; he fitteth it with planes, and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty of a man; that it may remain in the house.
14 He heweth him down cedars, and taketh the cypress and the oak, which he strengtheneth for himself among the trees of the forest: he planteth an ash, and the rain doth nourish it.
15 Then shall it be for a man to burn: for he will take thereof, and warm himself; yea, he kindleth it, and baketh bread; yea, he maketh a god, and worshippeth it; he maketh it a graven image, and falleth down thereto.
16 He burneth part thereof in the fire; with part thereof he eateth flesh; he roasteth roast, and is satisfied: yea, he warmeth himself, and saith, Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire:
17 And the residue thereof he maketh a god, even his graven image: he falleth down unto it, and worshippeth it, and prayeth unto it, and saith, Deliver me; for thou art my god.
18 They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see; and their hearts, that they cannot understand.
19 And none considereth in his heart, neither is there knowledge nor understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; yea, also I have baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have roasted flesh, and eaten it: and shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? shall I fall down to the stock of a tree?
20 He feedeth on ashes: a deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say, Is there not a lie in my right hand?

The King James Bible is consistent:


Matthew 23:10 KJB Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.

1 Cor 12:28 KJB And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.

Eph 4:11 KJB And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

Now look at these verses in the New King James Version.

Matthew 23:10 NKJV And do not be called teachers; for One is your Teacher, the Christ.

1 Cor 12:28 NKJV And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues.
