Until now, most of you answered the first question, almost all showed that they have different versions and translation of the bible.
Also,almost all of you answerred the second question, but strikingly, none until now managed to proof that the version he or she holds is what was really revealed to the Messiah.
Some of you had said that all the Bibles say the same thing. I don't think that this statement is correct,if you take the example of the Catholic Roman Version, it had 73 books, while the KJV have 66 books.Subsequently, thats one major factor in the difference between catholics and protestants, which can proof that both versions don't say the same thing.
I will wait and see what proofs each have for that his version of the Bible is the real one that Jesus came with,since that this topic is important to everyone.

There is only one Bible. It is translated over many times and in many languages but its still the same Bible. Sometimes a word many change and one translation will use the word, "Comforter" and another translation will use the word, "Counselor", but the meaning and beauty remains the same.
The Bible remains understandable and beautiful in every language and every translation. This is one way we know that Christianity is for the whole world. The Bible remains inspirational for the world to understand. This is in great contrast to the Qu'ran which is only useful in Arabic. If you translate it, then it is no longer inspirational. I once read the Qu'ran in English and it was horrible!!! It sounds like an illiterate poet making it up as he goes along. So much of the Qu'ran repeats itself, and there are tiresome threats to those who don't believe. This is how we know that the Qu'ran is only for those who speak Arabic.
Why are there no verses in the Qu'ran that inspire in English?? There are none.
In the Bible we read Jesus' words saying, "Come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentile and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." Matt 11:29

I have five printed Bibles ; one French, one Spanish, KJV, NIV, and TEV. I also have about 7 others on CD-ROM, with a bunch of commentaries, dictionaries, etc. If there is a problem text, I compare them all and then make an intelligent decision as to the meaning.
Oh yes, I also have (on CD-ROM) the ancient Greek New Testament and two versions of the Hebrew Old Testament; not that these are of much help since I cannot read Hebrew and ancient Greek (can't even read modern Greek!!).

I have many of them,and love them,but I
believe the NIV is alot easier to read and
understand. I believe they are all true and
give the same basic message,but you need
to keep in mind that if God isn't forcing you
to believe the Bible or anything else,then
why be all freaked out or concerned?
This is all about personal choice,and now
people do know they have lots of choices
and the freedom to make those choices so
this question really seems odd to me,if you
already know what you desire to believe or
choose to believe.
God isn't telling you what to do,and neither
am I. A true christian will not demand that
you believe the bible or anything.
I like having alot of bibles in case someone
asks for one,and also because they are
very interesting to me,but the larger print
are harder to find.

I currently have 3 that I refer to or use in my studies. One is an NIV translation, and a study bible. The other two are King James Version.
I'm not sure what you mean by "which one is the real one"?? Some religions or cults have 'their own bible' or doctrine, but the Word of God can be found in the Holy Bible - and you should stick to KJV or NIV in my opinion.

Several, the main one is on my notebook computer which includes Hebrew and Greek original language versions... those are real.
fd: you quote a mistranslation of 1 Timothy 3:16. I have been using the Greek New Testament as my primary source for almost 25 years now and "theos" - the Greek word for "God" is NOT IN THAT PASSAGE.
There are MANY PASSAGES, for instance 1Ti3:16 as cited above, where the kjv translators DELIBERATELY CHANGED A READING in an attempt to bolster a particular interpretation or with some other purpose. They gave LITTLE CARE to rendering an ACCURATE TRANSLATION of the original languages. It SHOULD NOT be relied on as an accurate reading.

I have 45 translations and several Greek New Testaments and Hebrew Old Testaments.
Which one is real?
None of them are autographs (original originals). So you could say they are all unreal to an extent.
The most real one is the Aland 27 Greek/English New Testament. It has compared all the latest discoveries of manuscripts and makes an approximation of what the original may have contained.
By the way, have you noticed it's almost impossible to get a jar of unreal mayonaise?

There is no real or false....there is only faith. Do you believe that Moses with GOD's help can open the sea. It sounds like power ranger story rite. If you believed it then why it bother whether which is the right bible. They all tell the same story but only translate it a little different. Because everyone is different and no one is the same.

I have had many.
I have a Grey one for Songs.
A Black one for Warfare.
A Brown one for Revealed Knowlege and Learning.
A lot of small New Testaments.
Alot.
I use the K.J.V., The Holy Spirit teaches me through that one, and I use an Amplified BIBLE to understand the Words in the King James Version.

There is only one Bible. Some of the Christian denominations (the Roman Catholics) have a few more books--called the apocrypha. . .but that was due to circumstances that arose during the millenia. It's all one Bible.
