BL> The NIV is a corrupted and perverted translation. It blantly omits
BL> 1 John 5:7. It is translated from the corrupted Alexandrian text.
BL> The same text that the Jehovah Witnesses used to translate their
BL> New World Translation. There is only one Word of God and it's the
BL> the KJV 1611 edition. It was translated using the Masoretic text
BL> which is the same text Jesus quoted when He rebuked satan in the
BL> wilderness. In using the Masoretic text Jesus showed us what text
BL> is the pure text. All other translations except the the KJV are
BL> from satan the merchandiser who makes merchandise of christians
BL> with his corrupt translations.
And you are blatantly OFF-TOPIC.

      PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS IS NOT A CHRISTIAN ECHO.
    Do not expect to find Christian harmony here. There are groups
    of people who participate here who do not claim Christianity.
    You will find total disagreement here on almost everything, and
    with that, extreme controversy.
    While I encourage you to express your convictions (even if they
    are strong ones), be aware that others have strong opinions too.
    You will come under quite a bit of scrutiny from opposing
    viewpoints. Tolerance by the reader is crucial. Diplomacy is
    advised at all times, and will get you the best results.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    The purpose of this conference is ultimately to provide a vehicle for
    the seeking of Biblical Truth, and truth about the Bible. This is an
    open forum for debate relating EXCLUSIVELY to the Holy Bible, it's
    history and culture. This includes investigating the credentials of,
    and methods used by, scholars who interpret related Biblical matters
    (history, language, archeology, etc.)
PROHIBITED for All Participants
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
__ Claims/topics regarding religious organizations or religious
   practices/tenants, that are not related to, or are not derived
   directly from, the Bible. THIS IS NOT A COMPARATIVE RELIGIONS
   CONFERENCE! This is an essential and central doctrine of the
   policy for this conference.
The bottom line is that this conference is for discussing what is actually
taught by the Holy Scriptures... NOT which version of the Bible *your* bias
claims is "authorized" -- there are conferences where that sort of talk is
allowed, but NOT here...  If you can accept that and "make nice," you are
more than welcome to participate... But, if you can't, then you should look
for another echo to pursue your subject on.
Thank you for your understanding and your co-operation...
