Which “Bible,” though?

There are some horrid versions out there. So horrid that they pervert the Word of God.

Sorry to be a wet blanket, but that is the reality.

All the modern English language Bibles use the corrupt Critical Text as the basis for the New Testament, and all of them are missing many words and passages.

The NIV, as an example, should be called the “New Incomplete Version,” because that’s effectively what it is. A friend of mine likes to call it the “Nearly Inspired Version,” but then he uses the NASB which has the same underlying issue.

Yep, they are all buying “The Message”, lol. Just kidding, when I look to see what’s popular the ESV in various formats is the most popular trending on Amazon. I’ve been praying for a revival kicked off by DJT winning. 🙏

Bingo! And thank you for pointing this out.

Everything put out since the KJV are corrupt since they used the Hort-Wescott manuscripts, EVERYTHING. Even the NKJV. So even though people are buying bibles, as you said, "which ones?"

If the bible they are purchasing perverts God's Words, they have no hope of finding true salvation using them.

The only true version of the Bible is the one that I use, and since I am not going to tell you which one that is, assume that it is the same version you adhere to.

Better the Bible than the Koran. Or "It takes a village ...."

And since the article doesn't mention Kindle versions, who knows how many Bible sales are going on?
