Born again?
Simply put, God wrote the Holy KJB Bible and no other bible.
It's set apart from others.
One Book (KJB) inspired by One God.
God wrote it perfectly, man penned it by inspiration.
God promised to preserve it.
God told man not to add or take away from it.
Why would it be OK to alter God's Word when God promised to preserve His true Holy Word?
If it were OK for man to change His original true Word, there would be no need to preserve it!
Q: Is there a believer in God who would change God's Word and foster confusion?
A: Yes. Satan himself works through others.
The Word of God has been attacked for years as prophesied, but God only allows satan to go so far.
Look at this key salvation verse:
King James Bible (KJB)
John 3:3 - "Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."
Now look at what altered versions of the true Bible have changed this verse to read.
The alteration is unacceptable to God, but the inference of ‘born again’ remains in each, and the 'clue' to forever life in Heaven remains in each.
