1) “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” John 3:16-18 (KJV)
2) “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:6a
3) “As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.” Romans 3:10-12 (KJV)
4) "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned." Romans 5:12 (KJV)
5) "All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags [OT Hebrew equivalent, 'menstrual rags']; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away. Isaiah 64:6a (KJV)
6) "Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin." John 8:34 (KJV)
7) "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23 (KJV)
8) "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him." 2 Corinthians 5:21 (KJV)
9) "And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth." Philippians 2:8-10 (KJV)

Comment: These nine passages are favorites of mine. Together with eighteen other related biblical references, they summarize the predicament of mankind along with God's gracious provision for personal relationship with Him in time and eternity. We all must make a choice about our eternal destiny. God respects our free will. The choice is yours. Bob

Matthew 5 verse 26.
-Removed-i will gladly comment on our translation but I will do so to people who know what they are talking about, that i am afraid excludes you, for i do not believe you have anyway of being able to distinguish between inaccurate translation and an inaccurate one, making your expression simply an extension of your prejudice.
-Removed-interesting can you tell us why, when it is used in other places that it really means 'to do obeisance',a simply eastern salutation, but that when it comes to Jesus it suddenly takes on an act of worship? the fact that we have changed it is of course reflective of the greater accuracy of both our understanding and translation, but you wouldn't know that because you have no way of discerning what is accurate translation and what is not, simply being content to be a sock puppet for the prejudices of other like minded idolaters.
Originally posted by johnnylongwoodyNo the word has remained the same, we have merely translated it more accurately as our understanding progressed, that our translation has undergone revision is a reflection of our greatness. After all , the term 'do obeisance', has a different meaning now than it had in the middle ages, we dont tend to greet dignitaries with the term, 'your worship', any more, or at least i dont.
SO you admit your organization changed the translation?
