Praus, you're a funny man.
If I put smiley faces :):):p in my posts then it would be too much of a giveaway. Comedy is best with a straight-faced delivery.

King Jimmy :)

Isa 37:36 Then the angel of the LORD went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they [were] all dead corpses.

Isa 65:20 There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner [being] an hundred years old shall be accursed.

Mark 3:25 And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand.

Mark 6:10 And he said unto them, In what place soever ye enter into an house, there abide till ye depart from that place.

2 Peter 1:21

New International Version (NIV)

[SUP]21 [/SUP]For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.

2 Peter 1:21 KJV

For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

This should tell you what is right... The King James says HOLY MEN OF GOD.... Are they human? Thoough human as the NIV says...
Well let us SEE... I believe a HOLY MAN OF GOD... Is a holy man of God because JESUS IN THE MAN IS THE HOLINESS. And no human was EVER HOLY... Save ADAM before he sinned... There after God had to SPARE HIS SPIRIT FOR A HUMAN TO MAKE HIM A HOLY MAN OF GOD...

The difference between a human (a sinning flesh man) and a HOLY MAN OF GOD...IS God's Salvation. God's BAPTISM, God's SON JESUS is the difference between the two. God's people is NOT THOUGH HUMAN... THey are HOLY MEN OF GOD...NOT human and sinning flesh....

So the NIV fails misrably on just this verse I showed you... Enough for me to use it as fire-starting paper.... Like I used all the FALSE AFRIKAANS translations as well.


If your Bible does not say HOLY MEN OF GOD in 2 Peter 1:21... Butn it... it is from Satan! There is only ONE THRUTH... Eph 4. TEST LL SPIRITS AND AL BIBLES.... Your life might just depend on it... A HOLY MAN OF GOD... KNOWS THAT ONE TRUTH... AND IT FAILS NEVER....

    So.........Prophets and Holy Men of God

    (found here)

    Introduction to Prophets in Old Testament

    Men who spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit

    The great men of the Old Testament were not the kings or the priests, but the prophets because they were always calling the people to repentance and revealing God’s will to man.

  2. When you compare all ancient history and its writings there is nothing which matches Israelite prophecy.
    DEFINITION: A prophet is a man who speaks to men on behalf of God the message he has received from God. Prophecy is the declaration and illustration of the principles of the divine government, whether in the past, present, or the future. Prophets were God’s specially called and inspired messengers. They were "holy men of God who spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit" (2 Peter 1:21).

KJV: 2nd Peter 1:20) Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 21 .) For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.



As I have said many times, I prefer the King James, and I enjoy the CJB, however, I don't believe that they are the ONLY TWO translations that are acceptable to the Church, or to God.....To say that, one would have to believe that God was not ABLE to preserve His Word from the corruption of man.........I believe God IS ABLE to preserve His Word, and regardless of the translation/language it's recorded in, it remains His Word.

But that's just me.........and I still prefer the King James..........and enjoy the CJB......

God bless

Haha! This is so silly. I'm sick of these KJV-only topics. We've only had about a hundred of them.

No it is not silly. It's the truth. Do some home work. Compare your NIV to a NWT and see how both agree.


What is actually silly and ridiculous is professing Christians defending and justifying the satanic trash such as the NIV, NASB, ESV, and any other modern fake bible. No Christian should be justifying the modern (Vatican) perversions.

Wrong Jason.

The NIV is a Satanic counterfeit. The NIV is good for the trash pile.


Stick with God's pure, inerrant and perfect word, the King James Holy Bible.

Jimmy, the NIV is NOT the word of God.


The NIV is a New Age, Satanic counterfeit. The NIV is Satan's bible.


If you want the true word of God, than stick with the King James Holy Bible.

Are you hungry yet?

Any lost person if he or she goes without food for days and even a week or two, can get hungry enough to eventually resort to cannibalism.

I read somewhere that they used a Greek NT...
In the days Jesus walked the Earth? That must have been ahead of its time. :)

The King James was originally written in Greek by the apostles, and in hebrew by the prophets of old. Little did you know, Moses wrote the first five books of the KJV.

KJ is as "old" as Reina-Valera Version. Many latin people think R-V is the Bible itself, so most of them don´t trut NIV or those they say PARAFRASE the "original"...

It is a pity to preach in another language. If I preach on chenese very few will hear me, not because this language is not spoken, but just because there are not ears open to ear. The same happens when using a dead tongue or old fashions of them.

The Bible isn't satanic trash.

The NIV, ESV, NASB, are NOT the Bible.

They are Satanic corruptions based on the Siniaticus and Vaticanus manuscripts.


The King James Holy Bible is the word of God. It is the true Bible.
