This
generation has a hunger for
perversion. What was perversion
just a few years ago, is now
"normal". What was "hiding" in the
closet is now "parading" in our
streets. Perversion has found a
welcome home - from the living
room, to the White House; from our
churches - to even the word of
God!
Our friend
Webster, defines "pervert"
as 1. to cause to turn aside or
away from what is good or true...
2. to twist the meaning or sense
of: misinterpret (Webster's
New Collegiate Dictionary, 1977,
p.856).
A perfect
definition of The New
International Version (NIV):
"to cause to turn aside or away
from what is good or true"
and "to twist the meaning or
sense of". If you doubt
that, before you start reading
this tract - get the NIV and
check it as you read this tract!
The NIV perverts the deity of
Jesus Christ!
I
TIMOTHY 3:16: The clearest
verse in the Bible proclaiming
that Jesus Christ was God. The
King James Bible (KJB) reads,
"And without controversy
great is the mystery of
godliness: GOD WAS MANIFEST
IN THE FLESH. . ." The
King James says, plainly,
"GOD was manifest in
the flesh". The NIV reads,
"HE appeared in a
body". The NIV "twists"
"GOD" to "HE". "HE
appeared in a body"? So What?
Everyone has "appeared in a
body"! "He" is a
pronoun that refers to a noun
or antecedent. There is
no antecedent in the context!
The statement does NOT make
sense! The NIV
subtilty (see Genesis 3:1)
perverts I Timothy 3:16 into
utter nonsense!
PHILIPPIANS 2:6: The KJB
again, clearly declares
the deity of Jesus Christ:
"Who, being in the form of
God, thought it not robbery
TO BE EQUAL WITH GOD"
The NIV reads, "Who, being
in very nature God, DID NOT
CONSIDER EQUALITY WITH GOD
something to be grasped,".
The NIV again subtitly
perverts the deity of Jesus
Christ!
The NIV perverts the virgin
birth!
LUKE 2:33: The King
James Bible reads, "And
JOSEPH and His mother marvelled at those things
which were spoken of Him."
The NIV reads, "The
CHILD'S FATHER and mother
marveled at what was said
about Him." The "CHILD'S
FATHER"? Was Joseph
Jesus's father? Not if you
believe the virgin birth!
Not if you believe John
3:16, that Jesus Christ was
the Son of God! A subtle,
"perversion" of the virgin
birth. See also Luke 2:43.
The NIV removes the blood
of Jesus Christ!
COLOSSIANS 1:14: The
KJB reads, "In Whom we
have redemption THROUGH
HIS BLOOD, even the
forgiveness of sins:"
The NIV reads, "In whom
we have redemption, the
forgiveness of sins."
The NIV rips out the
precious words "THROUGH
HIS BLOOD"! Friend,
redemption is ONLY
"THROUGH HIS BLOOD".
Hebrews 9:22, reads,
". . . without shedding
of BLOOD is no
remission." That old song
says, "What can wash away
my sins, NOTHING BUT
THE BLOOD OF JESUS!"
The NIV perverts John
3:16 into a LIE!
JOHN 3:16: The
NIV reads, "For God
so loved the world that
He gave His ONE AND
ONLY SON, that
whoever believes in Him
shall not perish but
have eternal life"
Jesus was NOT "the
one and only son" -
Adam is called the
"son of God" in Luke
3:38, there are "sons
of God" in Job 1:6
and Christians are
called "sons of God"
in Phil 2:15, I John
3:2- but Jesus was
the "ONLY BEGOTTEN SON"!
By removing the critical
word "BEGOTTEN" - The
NIV perverts John 3:16
into a LIE! The NIV does
the same in John 1:14,
1:18, and 3:18.
The NIV perverts
TRUTH into LIES!
The NIV perverts Mark
1:2,3 into a LIE!
The NIV reads "It
is written in Isaiah
the prophet: I will
send My messenger
ahead of you, who will
prepare your way-a
voice of one calling
in the desert, Prepare
the way for the Lord,
make straight paths
for Him." It is
NOT written in Isaiah!
"I will send My
messenger ahead of
you, who will prepare
your way" - is
found in Malachi 3:1!
The King James
correctly
reads: "As it is
written in the
PROPHETS, . . ."
A better
translation! Easier to
read - BY A LIE!
Psalms 119:160 says,
"Thy word is
TRUE. . ."
John 17:17 says,
". . . thy word is
TRUTH." Titus
1:2 clearly says,
". . . God that
CANNOT LIE"
How could the God of
Titus 1:2 be the God
of Mark 1:2,3 in the
NIV!? IT IS
IMPOSSIBLE!
For Hebrews 6:18
clearly declares,
". . . it was
IMPOSSIBLE for God to
LIE" It is impossible
for the LIES in the
NIV to be the words of
GOD! Whose
words are they?
I'll give you a hint -
Jesus Christ calls him
"A LIAR, and the
father of it" in
John 8:44!
The NIV again
openly LIES
in 2 Samuel 21:19,
". . . Elhanan son of
Jaare-Oregim the
Bethlehemite killed
Goliath the Gittite,
who had a spear with a
shaft like a weaver's
rod." What
8-year-old doesn't
know that David killed
Goliath?
Romans 1:18-32
describes the "path
to perversion" and
verse 25, describes
their decline,
"Who changed the TRUTH
of God into a LIE. .
."! Not
surprisingly, The NIV
perverts Romans 1:25
from "CHANGED
the truth of God INTO
a lie" to
"EXCHANGED the
truth of God FOR a
lie"!
The NIV and sexual
perversion!
Romans 1:26-32 also
shows the "fruits"
of "sowing" ". .
. the TRUTH of
God into a LIE. . ."
Verses 26-27
says "FOR THIS
CAUSE
(vs 25 for "changing
the TRUTH of God
into a LIE") God
gave them up unto
vile affections:
for even their women
did change the
natural use into
that which is
against nature:
And likewise also
the men, leaving the
natural use of the
woman, burned in
their lust one
toward another; men
with men working
that which is
unseemly, . . ."
The last few years
homosexuality and
sexual perversion
have "exploded" into
the mainstream.
Legislation is now
pending making
same-sex marriages
legal. Books such as
Heather Has Two
Mommies and
Daddy's Roommate,
promoting
homosexuality, are
in our schools.
According to The
Washington Post,
bisexuality and
homosexuality, are
the "in thing" in
our public schools.
And even churches
are now welcoming
homosexuals and are
even ordaining them
in the ministry!
A literary critic on
the NIV translation
was homosexual
author Dr. Virginia
Mollenkott. In
Episcopal,
Witness (June
1991, pp. 20-23),
she admits, "My
lesbianism has
ALWAYS been a part
of me. . ." To
no surprise,
"sodomite" is
completely removed
from the NIV. (Deut.
23:17, I Kings
14:24, 15:12, 22:46,
II Kings 23:7) And
of course, I Cor.
6:9, ". . .
effeminate, nor
abusers of
themselves with
mankind. . ." is
replaced with the
non-offensive ".
. . nor male
prostitutes nor
homosexual
offenders. . ."
Notice the NIV in
I Cor. 6:9 does NOT
condemn
"homosexuals" or the
"act of
homosexuality" -
but ONLY "homosexual
OFFENDERS".
The NIV &
Zondervan
A little known
fact: In 1988
Zondervan and the
NIV was purchased
by Harper &
Row, Publishers
(now
HarperCollins
Publishers).
HarperCollins
publishes
"pro-homosexual"
books such as
Making Out, The
Book of Lesbian
Sex and Sexuality
described as
"Beautifully
illustrated with
full-color
photography,. . .
Making Out is the
complete
illustrated guide
to lesbian
sexuality and
relationships. .
.the intricacies
of love play. . ."
and many other
pro-homosexual
books!
HarperCollins
is a subsidiary of
the global media
empire, The
News Corporation,
owned by Rupert
Murdock. The
News Corporation
empire include Fox
Broadcasting,
Twentieth Century
Fox, and more than
128 newspapers.
Fox Broadcasting
produces some
of the most
sexually lewd
shows on
television.
Murdock also
publishes the
British newspaper,
the Sun,
notorious for its
nude pin-ups.
Now where is
Don Wildmon when
we really need
him? Don
was quick to
boycott Kmart
because
subsidiary,
Waldenbooks
sold Playboy and
Penthouse. Kmart
can't "hold a
candle" to the
"filth" spewed by
The News
Corporation.
Why isn't Don
boycotting
Zondervan and the
NIV? Friend, every
time you purchase
the NIV you are
giving to people
who produce
pro-homosexuality,
pornographic
material — AND
THE SATANIC BIBLE!
"Can two walk
together, except
they be AGREED?"
Amos 3:3
Jesus Christ
plainly said
in Matthew
7:17-18:
Even so every
GOOD tree
bringeth forth
GOOD
fruit; but a
CORRUPT tree
bringeth forth
EVIL FRUIT.
A good tree
cannot bring
forth evil
fruit, neither
can a CORRUPT
tree bring forth
GOOD FRUIT.
(Matthew
7:17-18)
Do you think
Jesus Christ was
LYING?
Do you
really believe
God would
ALLOW His HOLY
word to be
"owned" by
that group?
". . .for
what
fellowship
hath
RIGHTEOUSNESS
with
UNRIGHTEOUSNESS?
and what
communion hath
light with
darkness?"2
Cor. 6:14
Do you
actually
believe God
would ALLOW
His Holy Word
to published
by the same
ungodly people
who publish
the Satanic
Bible?
Being born
again, not of
CORRUPTIBLE
seed, but of
INCORRUPTIBLE,
by the WORD
OF GOD,
which liveth
and abideth
for ever.
(1 Peter 1:23)
Isn't it
EQUALLY
amazing that
the King James
Bible is the
ONLY Bible
that is not
OWNED by men?
That's right!
The King James
Bible has no
COPYRIGHT
ownership!
It's copyright
is the CROWN
COPYRIGHT
which ALLOWS
it to be
published by
ANYONE,
ANYTIME!
Without asking
ANYBODY for
permission!
". .
.but the word
of God is NOT
BOUND."
2 Timothy 2:9
The NIV
robs Jesus
Christ of
worship!
In Matt.
8:2, 9:18,
15:25,
18:26,
20:20, Mark
5:6, 15:19
"worshipped
him" is
removed in
the NIV!
Why doesn't
the NIV want
Jesus Christ
to be
worshipped?
Hint: see
Luke 4:7,
Matt. 4:9.
The NIV
perverts
Jesus Christ
into
Lucifer!
Isaiah
14:14
reveals
Satan's
grandest
desire,
"I will
be like
the most
High."
And
with a
little
subtil
perversion
- the NIV
in Isaiah
14:12
grants
Satan's
wish!
ISAIAH
14:12:
The KJB
reads,
"How art
thou
fallen
from
heaven, O
LUCIFER,
son of the
morning!.
. ."
The NIV
PERversion
reads,
"How you
have
fallen
from
heaven, O
MORNING
STAR,
son of the
dawn. . ."
The NIV
change
"Lucifer"
to
"MORNING
STAR".
BUT WAIT.
. . I
thought
the Lord
Jesus
Christ was
the
MORNING
STAR?
Doesn't
Revelation
22:16 say,
"I
Jesus have
sent Mine
angel to
testify
unto you
these
things in
the
churches.
I am the
root and
the
offspring
of David,
and the
bright and
MORNING
STAR".
The NIV
CLEARY AND
BLATANTLY
makes
LUCIFER --
The Lord
Jesus
Christ!
WHAT
BLASPHEMY!
WHAT
PERVERSION!
And
Christians
claim the
NIV is a
"better
translation"!
ISAIAH
14:15:
The King
James
Bible
condemns
Lucifer to
hell:
"Yet thou
shalt be
brought
down to
HELL .
. ."
The NIV
does NOT
condemn
Lucifer to
HELL! The
NIV reads,
"But
you are
brought
down to
the
GRAVE.
. ." We
all go to
the
GRAVE!
Why
doesn't
the NIV
want Satan
in hell?
The NIV
removes
and
perverts
the place
of hell!
The word
"hell"
occurs
31 times
in the
Old
Testament
in the
King
James
Bible.
In
the Old
Testament
of the
NIV it
occurs -
ZERO!
The word
"hell"
is NOT
in the
Old
Testament
of the
NIV!
And what
do they
do with
"hell"?
Take
PSALM
9:17
for
example:
The King
James
reads,
"The
wicked
shall be
turned
into
HELL.
. ."
The NIV,
reads,
"The
wicked
return
to the
GRAVE.
. ."
We
ALL
"return
to the
GRAVE"!
By
removing
"hell"
the NIV
perverts
Psalm
9:17
into
nonsense!
In the
New
Testament
the NIV
zaps out
"hell" 9
times.
And what
"clearer"
"easier
to
understand"
word
does the
NIV
"update"
hell
with?
Five
times
they use
- HADES!
(Matt
16:18,
Rev
1:18,
6:8,
20:13,14)
What
"common
person"
understands
HADES?
Everybody
knows
what
HELL is!
Do you
know
what
HADES
is?
Hades is
not
always a
place of
torment
or
terror.
The
Assyrian
Hades is
an abode
of
blessedness
with
silver
skies
called
"Happy
Fields".
In
the
satanic
New Age
Movement,
Hades is
an
intermediate
state of
purification!
Webster's
New
Collegiate
Dictionary
defines
HADES:
"the
underground
abode of
the dead
in Greek
MYTHOLOGY".
The
NIV
perverts
your
Bible
into
MYTHOLOGY!
The
NIV
perverts
The
Lord's
Prayer
into The
Devil's
Prayer!
LUKE
11:2-4:
The
KJB
reads,
".
. .Our
Father
which
art in
heaven,
Hallowed
be Thy
name.
Thy
kingdom
come.
Thy
will
be
done,
as in
heaven,
so in
earth.
Give
us day
by day
our
daily
bread.
And
forgive
us our
sins;
for we
also
forgive
every
one
that
is
indebted
to us.
And
lead
us not
into
temptation;
but
deliver
us
from
evil."
The
NIV
removes
everything
that
refers
to a
Holy
God in
heaven
-"WHICH
ART IN
HEAVEN.
. .
Thy
will
be
done,
AS IN
HEAVEN,
so in
earth.
. .
but
DELIVER
US
FROM
EVIL."
Everything
that
distinguishes
God
from
the
Devil
is
REMOVED!
"OUR
FATHER"
of the
NIV is
"NOT
IN
HEAVEN"
and
"DOES
NOT
DELIVER
FROM
EVIL!"
I
wonder
who it
could
be?
(hint:
see
John
8:44)
The
Bible
warns
against
taking
away
and
adding
to the
words
of
God!
Deuteronomy
4:2
reads:
"YE
SHALL
NOT
ADD
unto
the
word
which
I
command
you,
NEITHER
SHALL
YE
DIMINISH
ought
from
it .
. ."
Proverbs
30:6,
reads,
"ADD
THOU
NOT
unto
His
words
. .
."
And
just
in
case
you
missed
it,
GOD'S
LAST
WARNING
is
Revelation
22:18,19,
". .
.
If
any
man
SHALL
ADD
unto
these
things.
. .
And
if
any
man
shall
TAKE
AWAY
FROM
THE
WORDS
of
the
book
of
this
prophecy,
God
shall
take
away
his
part
out
of
the
book
of
life.
. ."
And
Jesus
Christ,
in
Luke
8:12,
gives
a
clear
aim
of
Satan,
". .
.
then
cometh
the
devil,
and
TAKETH
AWAY
the
word
. .
."
The
NIV
completely
"TAKETH
AWAY"
17
verses!
Wonderful
and
precious
verses
like:
MATTHEW
18:11:
"For
the
Son
of
man
is
come
to
save
that
which
was
lost.".
ACTS
8:37:
"And
Philip
said,
If
thou
believest
with
all
thine
heart,
thou
mayest.
And
he
answered
and
said,
I
believe
that
Jesus
Christ
is
the
Son
of
God."
The
NIV
PERversion
completely
"TAKETH
AWAY"
Matthew
17:21,
18:11,
23:14,
Mark
7:16,
9:44,
9:46,
11:26,
15:28,
Luke
17:36,
23:17,
John
5:4,
Acts
8:37,
15:34,
24:7,
28:28,
Romans
16:24
and
1
John
5:7!
After
Mark
16:8
the
NIV
says,
"The
most
reliable
early
manuscripts
and
other
ancient
witnesses
do
not
have
Mark
16:9-20."
ZAP-There
goes
another
12
verses!
And
by
the
way,
that
is
absolutely
untrue!
The
book,
The
Last
Twelve
Verses
of
the
Gospel
of
Mark,
by
Dean
Burgon
contains
over
400
pages
of
documented
evidence
for
Mark
16:9-20,
that
has
never
been
refuted,
nor
ever
will!
After John 7:52, the NIV, reads, "The earliest and most reliable manuscripts and other ancient witnesses do not have John 7:53-8:11" ZAP-There goes another 12 verses!
Matt. 12:47, 21:44, Luke 22:43 and 22:44 are all removed in the footnotes!
That's 45 complete verses the NIV removes from the text or in the footnotes!
The NIV "TAKETH AWAY" 64,576 words!
Don't look for the "mercyseat" in the NIV - GONE!
Don't look for "Jehovah" in the NIV - GONE!
Don't look for the "Godhead" in the NIV - GONE!
The NIV removes wonderful Bible "terms" like remission, regeneration, impute, propitiation, new testament and many others!
Despite God's clear warnings about "taking away" from His words - the NIV removes 64,576 words! Over 8 percent of God's word is "TAKETH AWAY"!
That equals REMOVING the books of Ruth, Esther, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon, Lamentations, Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Malachi, Colossians, I Thessalonians, II Thessalonians, I Timothy, II Timothy, Titus, Philemon, James, I Peter, II Peter, I John, II John, III John, Jude and more - COMBINED!!! The equivalence of ripping out OVER 30 BOOKS of the Bible!
In case you think it's insignificant words like "thee" and "thou"? The NIV removes major portions of at least 147 verses!
Here's a small (very small) sampling of words removed in the NIV!
Matt. 6:13, "For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen."
Matt. 15:8, "This people draweth nigh unto Me with their mouth"
Matt. 19:9, "and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery."
Matt. 20:7, "and whatsoever is right, that shall ye receive."

Matt. 20:22, "and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with"
Matt. 25:13, "wherein the Son of Man cometh."
Matt. 27:35, "that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet They parted my garments among them and upon My vesture did they cast lots"
Mark 6:11, "Verily I say unto you, it shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city."
Mark 10:21, "take up the cross."
Luke 1:28, "blessed art thou among women"
Luke 4:4, "but by every word of God"
Luke 4:8, "get thee behind Me Satan"
Luke 4:18, "He hath sent Me to heal the broken hearted"

Rev. 5:14, "Him that liveth for ever and ever"
Rev. 14:5, "before the throne of God"
Rev. 21:24, "of them which are saved"
Jesus Christ says, in Luke 4:4, ". . . It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD of God." But not according to the NIV! In fact, the NIV even "TAKETH AWAY" the last half of Luke 4:4 - "BUT BY EVERY WORD OF GOD"! And Jesus Christ was quoting Deuteronomy 8:3 to Satan! Does the NIV PERversion seriously think the Lord Jesus Christ does NOT know Duet. 8:3???
The LIES used to promote the NIV. . .
LIE 1) The NIV "just" updates the "archaic" words and makes it "easier to understand". Nothing is "really changed.
FACT: The NIV denys the deity of Jesus Christ; the virgin birth; glorifies Satan; openly lie; removes 17 complete verses and 64,576 words!
LIE 2) The NIV is easier to read and understand.
FACT: According to a Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level research study, The King James Bible is by far the easiest! Out of 26 different categories - the King James graded easier in a whopping 23! In selected analysis, the KJB average grade level was 5.8 - the NIV was 8.4! (New Age Bible Versions, Riplinger, pp.195-209)
LIE 3) Older and more reliable manuscripts have been discovered since the King James Bible.
FACT: Dr. Sam Gipp writes, "The fact is, that the King James translators had ALL OF THE READINGS available to them that modern critics have available to them today." (The Answer Book, Gipp, p.110) And furthermore, it is a well documented fact that 90 - 95 per cent of all readings agree with the King James Bible!
LIE 4) The NIV is more accurate.
FACT: The KJB is a literal word for word translation. When the translators had to add words for sentence structure they are in italics. The NIV uses "dynamic equivalence". Rather than a word for word translation, they add, change and subtract to make the verse say what they "thought" it should! The Preface to the NIV even says, ". . .they have striven for more than a word-for-word translation. . ."
". . . ye have PERVERTED the words of the living God. . ."
Jeremiah 23:36
The New International
PER-Version!
"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."
Psalms 12:6, 7
