My life is fixed on the Lord and I let the Lord edit his scriptures!
It is the Lord that is inherently CORRECT even even in his scriptures there are warnings about his word being added to or subtracted or even his Gospel being preverted.
All this took place before the 1st century or after as well as altering the nature of the Godhead.
It wasn’t until 1500 AD that common man could lay his eyes on the Lord words which should have been universal from the start!
Many could not read so they had to depend on the hearing of the Word and recognizing their Master voice!
AS of now you still have nothing to compare your statement to.
I have the Book of Mormon which testifies of the Bible as well as other standard works which also testify of the scriptures.
Because of the Standard works it has given me a greater understanding of the Bible.
Ezek 37 (The stick of Judah (Bible) and the stick of Joseph (Book of Mormon) become one in the Lord’s hand—Israel shall be gathered and cleansed—The Messiah shall reign over them—They shall receive the everlasting gospel covenant.)
15 ¶ The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying,
16 Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions:
17 And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand.
18 ¶ And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these?
19 Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.
20 ¶ And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes.
21 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all:
So the LDS believe they are the the lost 10 tribes and will be reunited with Judah and rule with Christ in the Millenium? Why haven’t the Mormons begun to reoccupy the land?

It might be a good idea to see what the Bible says about this verse.
As you can see it has NOTHING to do with the Book of Mormon. It is the rejoining of the northern tribes (Ephriam) with the southern tribes (Judah) into ONE NATION.
Eze 37:15 ¶ The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
Eze 37:16 Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and [for] all the house of Israel his companions:
Eze 37:17 And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand.
Eze 37:18 ¶ And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou [meanest] by these?
Eze 37:19 Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which [is] in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, [even] with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.
Eze 37:20 And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes.
Eze 37:21 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
Eze 37:22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all:

This does not sound like Jackson County Missouri!
