NIV seems to leave out Revelation 22:21.
http://bible.crosswalk.com/ParallelBible/bible.cgi?word=Revelation+22%3A21§ion=0&language_one=en&version_one=niv&language_two=en&version_two=kjv&new=1&oq=&NavBook=joh&NavGo=7&NavCurrentChapter=7
NIV ends with Come Lord Jesus("division" & not peace)
Jesus: division & not peace: Mt 10:34; Lk 12:51; Jn 7:43
Christ: peace & not divided: Jn 14:27;1Cor1:13;Eph2:14
Peace with God & eternal life are through Jesus->Christ.
To wit: "that God" was in "Christ": "reconciling" the world

Ok, some NIVs end with the grace of the Lord "Jesus"; But have any NIV lovers considered the grace of Jesus is grace + law, which is as mercy + sacrifice as the saved + destroyed afterward noted in Jude 5, which is pre-requisite to Revelation?
Will of Jesus is not same as will of God in "not my will, but thine be done". However will of Christ is same as God in Mt 9:13.
POINT being eternal salvation and peace with God are "through Jesus->Christ" ends with "Christ": is the end of the law, which is pure grace, not grace + another law, which is as life + death doesn't end with life.
To wit: that God in "Christ" reconciling the world, not in Jesus alienating the world.

I am interested in comparing the NIV to KJV but I am not following what you are saying here. Could you please say it a little more simply. Where are you getting the division and not peace? It looks to me like the verses are pretty much the same. (Rev 22:21)

Mine says the same Ivan's says, Revelation 22:21 is right there, not in the least hidden, so remind me to stay away from this crosswalk thing, its apparently mixed up or they can't read. Actually, its probably one of those sites that make up stuff to try to convince people that the King James version is the "only" version, and the ones they don't like are wrong. Gotta wonder why people do stuff like this, are they just bored or what? Is it more important to make up lies to support what they want us to believe or to lead people in their walk? Looks to me like they're way more into the lie thing.

the end of my NIV says vs 20 He who testifies to these things says, "Yes, I am coming soon." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus vs 21 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God's people. Amen.

There seem to be an awfully lot of versions of the bible.
Ever wonder how there can be a version of the truth?

The book of Revelation was anti-Roman propaganda. Read the Book of Alvis instead.
