Which one of my bibles it the right one?

Question

I have several Bibles and they are all different. Some have whole books missing! Which one is the right one? Mine. Yours? Or somebody elses?

Answer 1

None, there was so much left out, deleted and misinterpeted as to make it almost meaningless. The roots of jesus's teachings are from the vedas,siddha yoga & hinduism,he taught Mantra repetition,meditation on God, "God dwells within you as you",reincarnation & God only knows what else.(and the catholic church& they aren't telling.) This happened when king constantine called the council of churches in 365 AD and they compiled the first bible. Read www.stephen-knapp.com/articles_to_read.htm

Answer 2

The correct and only accurate Bible is the King James Version 1611. Any other version has added taken out and change so many other things that it is inaccurate. The King James is the most hated Bible out there so that ought to tell you something. I highly recommend a book called New Age Versions. It is the most thorough book on bibles that I have ever seen.

Answer 3

The Old Testament was written in Hebrew and the New Testament was written in Greek. Every English Bible is a translation from the original languages. I like the New International Version the best. I also like the paraphrased Living Bible.

The link below discusses which writings (called the canon) belong in the Bible:

Hope this helps!

Answer 4

All, and none. Each is a translation from original languages, and no translation is perfect; some are better than others. Newer translations than KJV are more understanable by people today because the language has changed in the past 400 years and words do not now mean what they did back then. But every version has hundreds of errors of fact, as well as dozens of internal contradictions, so no bible should be taken as an authority on anything.

Answer 5

The "cannonized" books of the Bible, which are considered to be the inspired and innerant words of God, are the 39 books in the Old Testament and 27 books in the New Testament. The Old Testament begins with Genesis and ends with Malachi. The New Testament begins with Matthew and ends with Revelation. I personally recommend the ESV version, though the KJV, NKJV, and the NAS are all good, reliable translations of the Bible.

Answer 6

Whole books missing? Well if you know it has things missing that cannot be the one can it. Find one that has all the books and then check the real meaning of the various interpretations Often when you look closely the very different words and voices are delivering the same message and that is what is important.

Answer 7

If you really want to read the authentic word of God, you will have to learn Hebrew (Old Testament) and Greek (New Testament). Plan to devote hundreds of hours in study to gain a working knowledge of these languages.

Fortunately, there are many good English translations that are very reliable. However, none are 100%. Only the Hebrew and Greek are free from human interprative influence.

Answer 8

The one that is the closest to the original manuscript....the King James is the most accurate. You can check it out by reading the interlinear Bible and comparing versions. Never take anyone's word for it (including mine). Check it out for yourself! Compare versions. When you find a discrepency (there are many) study it out. You will find truth because God promised to protect His Word. (Ps 12:6,7) He also promises that you will know the truth. (John 8:32)

Answer 9

I use the king James Version

Answer 10

I use the King James Version, but you use which ever you believe in.
