“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.

Jacked Up Jezebel Rebuked [podcast]

“Jezebel is a widely rampant spirit of rebellion that is hard to get rid of, rooted in pride, self-will, and self-sufficiency. Only the LORD can deliver but only if the individual truly repents and submits to Him, to His Word.” Anita Villarreal

Any person defending this jezebel heresy that women can be pastors, elders over men, is under the control of Satan, period. And in need of true repentance (James 4:7).

—-There are NO female apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, or teachers under the New Testament (Ephesians 4:8, 11-12). Jesus gave these “gifts unto MEN.” (Ephesians 4:8) There is not even one woman mentioned in 27 books as an elder over Christ’s flock. Such is clearly forbidden (1 Timothy 2:11-12). In Acts 21:9 we read of Phillip’s daughters which “did prophesy” which is a gift of the Spirit (one of the nine-1 Corinthians 12:7-10). The office gifts are eldership functions for men called to be overseers over Christ’s flock, which is completely different than the gifts of the Spirit which every believer can function in and certainly women are seen doing such as Phillip’s daughters and how women are mentioned concerning operating in the gifts of the Spirit in 1 Corinthians 14.

Classic case of a jezebel lashing out when the Word of GOD corrects her (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Her rebellion is against God. Jezebel is utterly rebellious. She hates what God’s Word says and so the demons that control jezebels will lash out in personal attacks against the men who stand on the truth unwaveringly (such as did Elijah whom Jezebel sought to kill).

“Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.” 1 Timothy 2:11-14

“As I look around America I ask myself who can find a virtuous woman? Whose whole life is surrendered to God. And centered in the fear of the Lord. No woman will submit to their husbands unless they first submit to God. Ephesians 5:22 says women are to submit to their husbands, “as unto the Lord.” That must come first. And what is a great price in the sight of God? A woman who has a meek and quiet spirit (1 Peter 3:4). This is true beauty to God. But Jezebels are the complete opposite. Full of rebellion, pride and hatred! God says throw her down!” Karen Cochran

From the divine perspective, this is not about oppression but rather about protect. See Revelation 2:20-24 to see what Jesus warns when a woman is allowed to lead as an elder in the body of Christ. He uses the words “The depths of Satan” and speaks of the death and destruction that will result when the men allow a woman to lead in a manner that is outside of the stated role God ordained for the woman.

Yes the LORD said He will pour out His Spirit on all flesh, sons and daughter, but not to anoint a woman to do something HE forbids. Women are to teach women yes but not the general body of believers (Titus 2:1-5). There are NO female elders in the New Testament. God forbids it. Eldership is reserved for men – to humbly teach, lead and protect and cherish women and children.

“There’s a crazy role reversal across the land and men should always lead. Even our women’s prayer group was led by the pastor because that’s what he believed. Women are more emotional and men more logical. Both have their designated roles . God meant them to compliment each other rather than to compete.” John Umlauf

When people don’t like what God’s Word states, they will attack the mere messenger as if that changes the truth. Not. And, they heap judgment on themselves by doing so (Matthew 7:1-5; James 2:13). Persecution

“For we are not as many, which corrupt (twist, adulterate) the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.” 2 Corinthians 2:17

“He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.” John 8:47

“Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.” Proverbs 13:13

Jesus Addresses the Ahabs and Self-Appointed Jezebel at the Church at Thyatira

Revelation 2:20-24

Revelation 2:20-24 is about a certain self-appointed woman who was allowed by the spineless men in Thyatira to operate out of the biblically-stated order for women in the church setting.

Rev 2:20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.
Rev 2:21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.
Rev 2:22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.
Rev 2:23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
Rev 2:24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.

Racism: Nation Rising Against Nation [radio]

Nation Shall Rise Against Nation

Laboring in the Spirit, not the Flesh

“Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.” Jude 21

It’s not about the color or your skin, it’s about what kingdom you’re in!

What Should be the Response of the Body of Christ? – LOVE!

Reading 1 Corinthians 13 each morning this week is a life changer. Nothing in our lives is going to work out right if we don’t prayerfully endeavor to walk in God’s love – loving God and our neighbor, above ourselves. I love pouring prayerfully over 1 Corinthians 13 and Philippians 2:3-5. Life changing is an understatement!

Racism is hatred and is not a skin color. It is a heart condition – coming from a sinful heart. Memorize Romans 2:11.

In the time of tribulation for the believers at Thessalonica, the Holy Spirit spoke through Paul and said this:

“And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.” 2 Thessalonians 3:5

By this we know of a certainty that the Holy Spirit is leading, directing our “hearts into the LOVE of God” and not the flesh, not a fleshly response. We now face tribulation and can be assured by this truth that our unchanging God is directing our hearts into His love and not hatred.

This is a divine truth for every era, every hour…. and we sure know that sin is exponentially abounding in this late hour…. which means divine grace is even greater – to save, heal, bless, deliver, and make whole!!!!

“But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:” Romans 5:20

Here’s more evidence of God’s leading His people into the love walk in trying times:

“But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. 8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.” 1 Peter 4:7-8

Any person who does not walk in God’s love is not saved and we know that from many Scriptures. No hate, no hater shall enter Christ’s kingdom, no matter what justification that sinner thinks he has to warrant hating anyone. “He that loveth not knoweth not God.” (1 John 4:8) “Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.” (1 John 3:15)

When His disciples ask Him “what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?”, Jesus gave them this answer:

“And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation (ethnic group) shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. 10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” Matthew 24:4-13

“Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. 5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.” 2 Timothy 2:3-5

The Church began, will end as containing precious souls from every nation, kindred, and tongue (Acts 2; Revelation 5:9; 14:6).

The New Testament church began with men from every nation under Heaven and will be the same throughout eternity in glory.

Acts 2:1-13

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;” Revelation 5:9

Nation/ethnos, ethnic yes…groups at odds was foretold by Jesus – Matthew 24:7

Yes we can be at peace, Jesus told us to fear not and to be at peace …..

John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
