Question about Abbreviations of versions of the Holy Bible?

Question

In some of the postings that I have read, when bible quotes are quoted there then follows a (KJV) or (NIV) etc.

I know what KJV means (King James Version)
but I am not sure as to what the other Abbreviations mean.

Would you be kind enough to assist me with the abbreviation and Proper Name of your Text?

Thank you

This is wonderful! Thank you very much. If there are any others I should be aware of - please do not hesitate to inform me.

Peace & Love
Sam

Peace & Love

Answer 6

And His notice is Jesus. by way of Jesus (His notice), God created the heavens and the earth. Matt 28:18-19, "And Jesus got here and spoke to them, asserting, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth." “His call is termed The notice of God” (Rev 19:13). interior the beginning up develop into the notice (Jesus) and Jesus develop into with God, and Jesus develop into God. Jesus develop into interior the beginning up with God. All issues have been made by way of Jesus, and with out Jesus, not something develop into made that develop into made. … And Jesus grew to develop into flesh and dwelt between us” (John a million:a million-3, 14). Jesus is termed the Son of God and the sent/Angel/Messenger of God with capital A and M because of the fact because of the fact the notice of God, He got here from the father and is God. Your father is larger than you yet you too are human, only because of the fact the father & Jesus are God, yet unlike human, purely one God, and not 2. by way of His notice Jesus, God created the heavens and the earth. we are saved by Grace by way of Jesus, not by our very own works yet as a present day, and sanctified by Mercy for the time of the Holy Spirit (Titus 3:4-8 NKJV, Eph 2:7-8). fact and charm got here by way of Jesus (John a million:17). Jesus is the Grace of God and the LORD our Savior. As God’s notice, Jesus is the Malak (The sent) of God, regularly translated because of the fact the Angel of the LORD (see Bible context). by robust good judgment, you, your notice, and your spirit are one individual and not 3 persons. in addition, God the father, His notice Jesus, and His Holy Spirit are all divine and yet those 3 ARE ONE (Trinity) God and not 3 Gods (1John 5:7). and there is none like Him. interior the previous testomony, the God human beings met develop into His notice, Jesus. no one has seen God (the father) (John 6:40 six. See additionally John a million:18). for this reason, God In individual in OT develop into Jesus, the LORD. In Genesis 18, Jesus, the LORD (in all caps indicating God), develop into between the three persons visited and dined in Abraham’s place. Jesus additionally led the Jews out of Egypt. “So the LORD (Jesus) spoke to Moses head to head, as a guy speaks to his pal” (Ex 33:11). “Then the LORD (Jesus) got here down interior the cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the Spirit that develop into upon him, and found a similar upon the seventy elders; and it got here approximately, while the Spirit rested upon them, that they prophesied" (Num 11:25-30, NKJV)
