Has anyone found secret messages in the bible?

No one has argued otherwise. You have just missed the point along the way. Would you say that in this present age, with all the corruption we see and hear about every day, that godliness is leaving the earth? I would say so. But so far, God has kept the promise He made in Psalm 12:5, has He not? How? By providing a Savior!!!! Do you feel protected by what Jesus did for us? I do. God’s put action behind those “pure words,” thus preserving them forever.

It has always been us that God intended to save, and that promise has been fulfilled first in Christ. We are heirs to that promise.

Think about what you are saying here. Verse 5 is not floating in outer space. Even if you wanted verse 6 to refer back only to verse 5 as being the exclusive pure words of the Lord and nothing else, it is by Scripture that we know about this truth. The words of the Lord are pure words and they will be kept forever and that is how we know that the needy or the poor in verse 5 will be kept. It is both and not just one or the other.

The communicated word of God that we have today is the Bible.
“So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.”
(Isaiah 55:11).
Jesus (the Living Word) was sent by the commandment (mouth) of the Father. Jesus said and did everything the Father told Him to do (John 12:49) (John 14:31).
What is interesting is that the Living Word accomplished that which the Father commanded Him to do and to prosper (accomplish) that thing He sent to do (i.e. Jesus suffered on the cross, and said, “It is finished” and died for man’s sins). Jesus was risen three days later, and ascended to the Father. God’s Word (the living Word) did not return void by whom the Father sent.
The communicated Word can also be sent out and not return void, as well. For many have believed and have stayed faithful to what God’s Word says.

In the creation: The Word made flesh (John 1:1, John 1:14) (i.e. Christ) created everything. In the beginning God spoke words to bring forth the creation in six days (Genesis 1:1-31).
So in the beginning was the Living Word, and the communicated Word.
In the end of this sinful world: Christ will return (Revelation 19:11-21) and a sharp sword will proceed from His mouth. This sword could be the “sword of the Spirit,” (Which is the Word of God) or it could be symbolic of such (Ephesians 6:17).
So in the end there will be the Living Word, and the communicated Word.
For at Christ’s return: His name is called The “Word of God.” (Revelation 19:13) (Living Word).
On His thigh, and vesture is a name written (words) “KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.” (Communicated Word).
Jesus was beaten to a pulp and crucified on a tree.
The Word we have today (the Bible) is a result of pulp made from a tree.
Jesus was the Word made flesh (covered in skin).
The Word we have today (the Bible) is popular to be available covered in skin (leather).
Words on the page hang on this tree (paper) (the Bible), just like the Living Word hung on a tree (the cross).

by saying v. 6 is about kjv, you are necessarily ignoring v. 5, because the "them" in context is the ones the pure words of God found in v. 5 are talking about. which are souls.

this psalm is about salvation, not kjv. the Bible is about Christ, Who is Salvation.

Psalm 12 isn't about the kjv. it's about Christ, declaring Him absolutely faithful to fully carry out the promise of salvation. the worst part of trying to make this song about kjv is that it leaves Christ out - it misses the point of this song, which is glorifying Him, and puts that glory arbitrarily onto a pagan language translation.

Listen to what your Heavenly Father says…. not what man says.

And we can only know his promises by His Word. If we could not trust His word because it has errors in it, then how could we trust God’s promises?

You would not know about the true Jesus or the gospel without His Word.

See also my post #1285.

amen - it does not return to Him empty when He sends it out

You are going about this all wrong. If you want someone to come around to your position, pretend to adopt theirs.

Christ is the Word, not the kjv.

If the scripture talks about the faithfulneas and purity of the Word, it defines Christ as that the Word - it doesn't define the Word as a translation into a pagan language.

so yes it is both but the 'both' is the person of Christ and the work of Christ. it is both the person and work of Christ.

true interpretation of scripture is always testimony of Him.

i've been doing it wrong for 45 years why would i stop now

Actually, we don't know the true Jesus until the Father reveals Him.

seriously tho that is incredibly insightful and shrewd advice.

thanks

because the acacia wood of the ark of the testimony is covered inside and out with gold - hidden by it

I agree with what you said here. But we wouldn’t know this without the word (Scripture) telling us this. But I have been rereading the chapter several times now with an open mind and I can see how you can interpret verse 7 as referring only to the godly and needy. But I can also equally read it to also include the pure words of the Lord in the immediate context, too.

To a great degree… yes. God’s grace is amazing. However, we have to endure to the end to be saved in the end. There is also Sanctification which involves my continued cooperation. See 2 Thessalonians 2:13, Galatians 6:8-9, Romans 8:13, and 2 Corinthians 7:1. Without holiness, no man shall see the Lord (Hebrews 12:14).

That’s why I believe there is one perfect Word of God I can trust today. Granted, I do use Modern Translations to help update the 1600s English in the KJB, but Modern Bibles are not my final word of authority because they teach false doctrines. I have already gave an example of that in this thread. Granted, there is a lot more examples in my write up that I hope to finish in the Spring.

I am Core KJB and not KJV only.

"If it's not 100% accurate then it's not preserved by God because God is perfect and would not allow his word to be corrupted." - that is why there are so many people converting to Islam.
