“THE LIVING BIBLE” EXPOSED!

By David Otis Fuller, D.D.

When we handle God’s Holy Word, we are fully persuaded it is different from any other book ever written. It is a supernatural Book, a Book that our Sovereign God has written through His inspired servants of old. Thus we should have the utmost reverence and respect for it. This is our Infallible Guide through a dark world. It is the Anchor of our souls in a world of storm.

We have every reason to believe that Dr. Kenneth Taylor, the author of the Paraphrased Living Bible, is a true Christian, but we cannot possibly keep silent when such unwarranted liberties are taken with the Holy Word of God. Our earnest prayer would be that these and other changes might be made. Such language that is used in a number of paraphrased verses we have pointed out, shocks the Bible believers and Bible lovers over America and the world.

We will let you, reader, be the judge as you compare the KJV and TLB. We make this comparison because we have the strongest kind of proof to show clearly that the King James Version is nearest to the original manuscripts. Again we would gladly challenge anyone to produce better or more proof that there is another version that is nearer to the original autographs than the KJV.

* KJV (Lev. 3:13) “And the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle the blood thereof upon the altar round about.”

TLB “The priest shall throw its blood against the sides of the altar.”

* KJV (Num. 25:11) “Phine-has…hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel.”

TLB “Phinehas has turned away my anger for he was as angry as I.” (Who could ever be as angry as God?)

* KJV (Num. 27:1) All the names of the daughters of Zelophehad are found here.

TLB These names are omitted, and all of verse 2, yet in (Num. 36:10) all the names are given, and also in (Josh. 17:3). Why the omission here?

* KJV (Judges 7:20b) “And they cried, the sword of the Lord and of Gideon.”

TLB “All yelling for the Lord and for Gideon.”

* KJV (Judges 19:2) “And his concubine played the whore against him.”

TLB “But she became angry with him and ran away.”

* KJV (1 Sam. 20:30) “Thou son of a perverse rebellious woman.”

TLB “You son of a b___.”

* KJV (2 Sam. 16:4b) And Ziba said, I humbly beseech thee that I may find grace in thy sight, My Lord, O King.”

TLB “Thank you, thank you, sir, Ziba replied.”

* KJV (1 Kings 18:27) “Cry aloud: for He is a God: either He is talking or He is pursuing.”

TLB “Perhaps he is talking to someone or else is out sitting on the toilet.”

* KJV (2 Kings 21:6b) “He wrought much wickedness in the sight of the Lord, to provoke Him to anger.”

TLB “So the Lord was very angry, for Manasseh was an evil man in God’s opinion.” (God does not hold opinions!)

* KJV (2 Chron. 26:4) “And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord according to all that his father Amaziah die.”

TLB “He followed in the footsteps of his father Amaziah and was in general a good king as far as the Lord’s opinion of him was concerned.” (Again we say, God does not hold opinions. Only men hold opinions.)

* KJV (Job 3:26) “I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet: yet trouble came.”

TLB “I was not fat and lazy yet trouble struck me down.” (The majesty and accuracy of the KJV is certainly missing here.)

* KJV (Psa. 34:20) “He keepeth all His bones: not one of them is broken.”

TLB “God even protects him for accidents.” (There are no accidents with God.)

* KJV (Ezek. 2:1) “And He said unto me, son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee.”

TLB “And he said unto me, Stand up, son of dust and I will talk to you.” (All through Ezekiel this phrase `son of dust’ is used in place of `son of man’.)

* KJV (Zech. 2:8) “He that toucheth you toucheth the apple of His eye.”

TLB “For he who harms you sticks his finger in Jehovah’s eye.”

* KJV (Zech. 13:6) “And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.”

TLB “And if someone asks then, what are these scars on your chest and your back, you will say, I got into a brawl at the home of a friend.” (The note at the bottom of this page of the Living Bible is as follows: “That this is not a passage referring to Christ is clear from the context. This is a false prophet who is lying about the reasons for his scars.” We would like to know where Dr. Taylor got his authority for saying this.)

* KJV (Mark 9:29) “And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.”

TLB “Jesus replied, Cases like this require prayer.” (Where is the authority for changing this version this way?)

* KJV (Luke 5:8) “When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.”

TLB “When Simon Peter realized what had happened he fell to his knees before Jesus and said, O sir, please leave us. I’m too much of a sinner for you to have around.”

* KJV (Luke 23:42) “And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.”

TLB “Then he said, Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” (Where does Dr. Taylor get the authority for leaving out `Lord’?)

* KJV (John 1:17) “For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.”

TLB “For Moses gave us only the law with its rigid demands and merciless justice while Jesus Christ brought us loving forgiveness as well.” (All through the Old Testament you will find the love and mercy and grace of God demonstrated.)

* KJV (John 2:4) “Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.”

TLB “I can’t help you now, He said, It isn’t yet my time for miracles.” (His hour was Calvary.)

* KJV (John 3:13) “And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.”

TLB “For only I, the Messiah, have come to earth and will return to heaven again.”

* KJV (John 6:69) “And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.”

TLB “And we believe them and know you are the holy Son of God.” (Where is the authority for omitting the name of Christ, and the son of the Living God?)

* KJV (John 13:26) “Jesusanswered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.”

TLB “He told me it is the one I honor by giving the bread dipped in the sauce.” (Was the Lord Jesus honoring Judas here?)

* KJV (Acts 9:5) “And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.”

TLB “Who is speaking, sir, Paul asked. And the voice replied, I am Jesus, the one you are persecuting. Now get up and go into the city and await for further instructions.” (Where is the authority for the omission here, or using `sir’ in the place of `Lord’, or using `Paul’ in the place of `Saul’?)

* KJV (Rom. 5:1) “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:..”

TLB “So now since we have been made right in God’s sight by faith in His promises we can have real peace with Him because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us.” (There is a vast difference between `we have peace with God’ and `we can have real peace with Him.”)

* KJV (1 Cor. 16:22) “If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maranatha.”

TLB “If anyone does not love the Lord, that person is cursed. Lord Jesus, come.” (Where did Dr. Taylor get the authority to omit Jesus Christ from the title of our Lord?)

* KJV (2 Cor. 5:21) “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.”

TLB “For God took the sinless Christ and poured into Him our sins. Then in exchange He poured God’s goodness into us.”

* KJV (2 Cor. 8:9) “For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.”

TLB “You know how full of love and kindness our Lord Jesus was:…” (Where is the authority for omitting the name Christ?)

* KJV (1 Tim. 2:5,6) “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.”

TLB “That God is on one side and all people on the other side, and Christ Jesus Himself, man, is between them to bring them together by giving His life for all mankind.”

* KJV (1 Tim. 3:16) “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh,…”

TLB “It is quite true that the matter to live a godly life is not an easy matter, but the answer lies in Christ who came to earth as a man.”

* KJV (1 John 1:7) “…and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.”

TLB “…the blood of Jesus, His Son, cleanses us from every sin.” (Where is the authority for omitting the name Christ?)

* KJV (Rev. 6:17) “For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?”

TLB “Because the great day of their anger is come and who can survive it?”

There are passages in the Living Bible that we feel have made the meaning a little clearer, but we only wish, and sincerely so, that Dr. Taylor had not sacrificed so badly the majesty and accuracy of the King James Version. We do not publish this pamphlet in any divisive sense. The one reason for so doing is because we hold a jealous regard for God’s Holy Word, and we cannot keep silent when it is being tampered with.

If the reader will but stop and think of how the prophets and apostles and patriarchs of old treated the Holy Word of God with such reverence and adoration, it can clearly be seen that we need to adopt the same attitude, and more in particular when God Himself tells us, “Thou hast magnified Thy Word above all Thy Name.” And when the Lord Jesus Christ, God manifest in the flesh, had in such deep reverence and respect the Word of God, we certainly should act in the same way.

Lay Up For Yourselves Treasures in Heaven [podcast]

“LAY UP FOR YOURSELVES”

The only wealth that will last, forever, is that which is gained by obeying God in this life – thereby laying up treasure in Heaven.

Money Has Wings

“Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.” Proverbs 23:4-5

Instruction: “Labour not to be rich” v4
Instruction: “cease from thine own wisdom” v4
Question?: “Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not?” v5
Wisdom to ponder: “for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven” v5

Note this phrase in v5 (please read carefully) – “riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.” Now watch this – “they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.” What does that mean? Simply, the way we spend our money on earth will testify about our lives on Judgment Day and we will thereby be rewarded or stripped of rewards or even kept out of the kingdom (Lk. 16:19-31; James 2:1-7; 5:1-6; etc.). The usage of our money is a direct reflection of the priorities of our hearts (Matt. 6:21).

Treasures In Heaven

IN previous generations, young men and women gave up their whole life of luxury in America to go to a foreign land to preach the Gospel of Christ. Today we have a generation of professing “Christians” who won’t so much as give up a penny to support the preaching of the Gospel of the glorious Savior they claim to be saved by.

How important is Christ and His Gospel to you? Jesus told us exactly how important we count Him and His Gospel….

People spend, waste money on every frivolity under Heaven and seldom lay up treasures in Heaven using their temporal coin (Matthew 6:19-21). Read Jesus’ teaching recorded in Luke 16.

Our LORD instructs us to lay up treasure, but in Heaven not here in this temporal world where the dollar will soon be obsolete, superseded by rewards earned during this earthly life.

“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures (lots) in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:” Matthew 6:19-20

Saint of the Most High, are you going to look back in eternity and deeply regret the opportunities God gave you in this fleeting life that you passed up? – to bless another believer or to support the work of Christ and send forward eternal rewards?

“For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Matthew 6:21

WHERE are you laying up treasure?

Your investments into God’s kingdom work in this short life are truly safe, secure, life-giving, and eternal. No one can take them away.

DISCIPLE OF JESUS, Jesus Christ is all-knowing and sees everything and will reward every good deed or work done in His name and love.

“For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.” Hebrews 6:10

Tithing is not commanded under the New Testament. Yet giving and putting God first is commanded and is the privilege of the saints of Christ (Proverbs 3:9-10; Matthew 6:33; Luke 6:38).

LET’S LEARN GOD’S WORD TOGETHER – ONE TRUTH AT A TIME: Are you tired of reading Scripture or hearing a good message from the Word and not retaining it for yourself and to help others? We can help you. This message was sent out to each person who is on the Moments For My Master e-mail devotional list. In supplementation to your personal daily study of God’s Word, we would love to add you and have the privilege of nourishing your heart with God’s Word (Jn. 5:39; 1 Tim. 4:6, 16; Heb. 5:11-14; 1 Pet. 2:2).

“While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:18 Someone has rightly stated that covetousness and greed and the love of money is going to damn more souls than any other sin. Read Jesus’ parable of the rich fool and memorize Luke 12:15. See Luke 12:15-21. Jesus says: “Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.” Luke […]

Mission Mexico Update Part 34 [video]

Mexico Army Personnel Ministered to [podcast]

“Love this walk around ministry here in Mexico. Handed a fella a tract and about 3 minutes later I passed by him and he was still reading it.” Mark

Brother Mark is a studious, diligent disciple of Jesus. Diligently doing the ultimate mission for our Messiah which is eternal. Thank you for lifting our brother in prayer (Colossians 4:12).

Mission Mexico – This is brother in Christ Juan. After ministering to him he lit up and informed me that he is a born again Christian. He is now distributing the JESUS tract on a very busy street where his shop it (the one he owns). God is good. Satan is a liar. Jesus is coming. Let’s roll saints. More Mission Mexico updates here.

“You mentioned our prayers are golden with God. How true this is according to Revelation 5:8. They are ‘golden vials’ (prayers and praises). That go upward to heaven right to the Lord! Carried up to the throne of heaven. And are received as a sweet odour to God! If done out of a pure heart. Because we know He hears the prayers of the righteous (Proverbs 15:29). If we are clothed in humility, our prayers and praises will be a sweet-smelling aroma to our Lord Jesus!” Karen Cochran

Regrettably, most professing Christians will never love Jesus enough to give up this fleeting world for Heaven’s coming King (Luke 14:33; 17:33).

When asked if she desired Christians in the USA to lift her in prayer, Maria immediately responded in the affirmative. Thank you for lifting the people in Mexico in your prayer, right now if you wish to pause.

Last evening brother Mark and I met up again with the dear pharmacist man. Gave him a big hug, warmly interacted with him, and gave him a fresh supply of the JESUS tract to continue to distribute from his pharmacy which is on a very busy corner here in Mexico and has daily walk in and walk by traffic.

A few days ago…. TONIGHT …. Another 50-60 JESUS tracts distributed and God’s Word spoken to many. 99% reception rate. God is good. Jesus is coming. Let’s roll saints. Mission Mexico underway. Your prayers and support are vital.

The receptivity of the Mexican people to our LORD’s Gospel is staggering, utterly dumbfounding.

“Truthfully amazing. I don’t think we here in in America can even begin to comprehend what God is doing in the hearts of the Mexican people. The book of Acts is the closest thing we have to understanding. I just read Daniel 12:3 “and they that the turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.” You and Mark’s lives in Christ are a shining testament to so many as you lead them to salvation and the righteousness only found in Christ.” Karen Cochran

Recently it was made known that a new batch of the JESUS tracts in Spanish was a need. A dear disciple of Christ funded that. God is good. 1,500 JESUS tracts! Done! appr 7,000 distributed thus far!

After the last newsletter, a dear sister in Christ jumped in and sent the money for us to print 1,500 more of the JESUS tract in Spanish. So now to date 9,000 have been printed during Mission Mexico. Appr 7,000 already distributed! 7,000 souls heard and read the Gospel of our LORD thus far and your prayers and support make this possible!

Jesus the Great High Priest

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.

15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrew 4:14-16

Jesus is coming saints – we going home soon to His forever home (John 14:1-6).

“Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.

2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.”

God be praised for those who are financially supporting this outreach. We will continue to do with that which comes in. Here are some things that can be done….

More support to others doing ministry in the USA.

We support Allan Abayon, who is a sound disciple and now ministering in the Philippines.

More support for requested books by Jay, a chaplain who ministers to 800 inmates in Texas, on the border. He’s the brother who contacted me after he got a hold of one of the Authentic Disciple of Jesus books (Spanish) in the jail he ministers in. He loved it and asked for more. We’ve only sent him a few dozen as that’s all the money that was given for such…..

Roger (pictured below) is a brother in Christ and after we talked he took some JESUS tracts to distribute. Amen LORD. Roger was asked if he’d like Christians in the USA to lift him in prayer and he eagerly said “yes.” Would you like to pause now and lift up our brother in Christ to the Father in Jesus’ name?

Dear saints in Christ, thank you for agreeing that it is our privilege to help these beloved people, to take out of what GOD has put in our hand to help HIS work.

The Killing Power of the Holy Ghost with Judge Travis Bryan III [podcast]

“For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.” Romans 8:13

“The cross of Christ is the sweetest burden that I ever bore; it is such a burden as wings are to a bird, or sails to a ship, to carry me forward to my harbor.” Samuel Rutherford

Momentum in the power of the Holy Spirit comes from a continual perpetual downward dying motion, being then raised up reciprocally in the resurrection grace of Jesus Christ.

“The flesh loses its power over you when it is crucified. Christ’s power begins to reign. The worries and stress of this life leave. And you begin to have the peace that passes all understanding. Philippines 4:7 Amen! A crucified life! Hallelujah all praise to Jesus.” Karen Cochran

God’s plan for your life….here it is:

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20

The ministry has put together 3 volumes sure to deepen your life in Christ, in the crucified life. 3 volumes to boost your life in Christ, in the cross He commanded us to take up – and by which He raises us upward in His glorious power and grace (Luke 9:23-24).

The Cross is a Surrender Not a Struggle [podcast]

The Cross is a Surrender not a Struggle Seems apparent that the struggle comes with living in the flesh, from resisting the surrender. In contrast, “the peace of God which passeth all understanding” comes from walking in the Spirit with Christ (Psalms 119:165; Galatians 5:22-23; Philippians 4:7). On the cross…. “And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.” Luke 27:46 Then what happened? “He is not here: for HE IS RISEN, as he said. Come, see the place where the […]

The posture of the true disciple is never to hide behind the […]

Please beware of the diabolical, cheap substitutes such as various forms of perfection by way of self – the flesh. These are deadly […]
