The 1611 Holy Bible versus Unrighteous Men To: “men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness” Romans 1:17 From: All who “Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus” 2 Timothy 1:13 Date: “till I come” Revelation 2:25 Subject: “Their poison is like the poison of a serpent” Psalm 58:4 news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2007/12/photogalleries/biggest-cobra/ “They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders’ poison is under their lips. Selah” Psalm 140:3 Therefore for any and all under the banner of “My name is Legion: for we are many” Mark 5:9: 2 The 1611 Holy Bible versus Papal Puppet Paul Peters Introduction Bro. John Davis of www.timefortruth.co.uk/why-av- only/ Time for Truth! received an email not long ago from a certain King James Bible-loathing and rabid pa- pist by the name of Paul Peters, hereafter referred to as PPPP i.e. Papal Puppet Paul Peters. PPPP’s objections to “the scripture of truth” Daniel 10:21 the 1611 Holy Bible have centred on: Incomplete, non-identical and supposedly spurious manuscript sources for the 1611 Holy Bible The supposed superiority of Jerome’s Latin Vul- gate to the 1611 Holy Bible stripgenerator.com/strip/638308/just-a- The supposed error of the Reformation principle puppet-on-a-string/view/all/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sola_scriptura Sola scriptura “by Scripture alone” Disputed texts in the 1611 Holy Bible. Bro. Davis had some brief exchanges with PPPP to which this writer made some contributions at Bro. Davis’ invitation. The correspondence will follow with some annotations by this writer. The purpose of this study is to show yet again “the scripture of truth” Daniel 10:21 the 1611 Holy Bible “like as a fire...and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces” Jeremiah 23:29 “For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges” Deuteronomy 32:31. “That Rock was Christ” 1 Corinthians 10:4 of Whom David states “I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name” Psalm 138:2. PPPP with his exaltation of Jerome’s Latin Vulgate has emphatically denied “That Rock was Christ” 1 Corinthians 10:4 of Whom David testifies “for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name” Psalm 138:2. Neither Jerome’s Vulgate nor PPPP has that testimony i.e. “their rock is not as our Rock”: “adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum, et confitebor nomini tuo: super misericordia tua et veritate tua; quoniam magnificasti super omne, nomen sanctum tuum” Psalm 138:2 Jerome’s Latin Vulgate. “I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name; For thy mercy, and for thy truth; for thou hast magnified thy holy name” Psalm 138:2 Jerome’s Latin Vulgate English Equivalent. “Our Rock” therefore called “their rock”“Satan” Matthew 16:23 because Satan cut “thy ways” from Psalm 91:11, Matthew 4:6, Luke 4:10 just like he did “thy word” from Psalm 138:2. It is instructive that the expression “Your word” occurs in Psalm 138:2 in Jay P. Green’s Interlinear Hebrew/English Old Testament but not in Brenton’s Septuagint, which is the fifth column of Ori- gen’s Hexapla of which Benjamin Wilkinson states The Latin Vulgate, the Sinaiticus, the Vaticanus, the Hexapla, Jerome, Eusebius, and Origen, are terms for ideas that are inseparable in the minds of those who know. The type of Bible selected by Constantine has held the dominating influence at all times in the history of the Catholic Church. This Bible was different from the Bible of the Waldenses, and, as a result of this difference, the Waldenses were the object of hatred and cruel per- secution... 3 See kjv.benabraham.com/html/chapter-2.html Our Authorized Bible Vindicated Chapter 2 The Bible Adopted by Constantine and the Pure Bible of the Waldenses. The Pure Bible of the Waldenses is still the object of hatred by Rome as PPPP reveals. Likewise cruel persecution if Rome could get away with it. Before setting out the exchange between PPPP and Bro. Davis together with this writer, it is instruc- tive to review what a genuine Bible believer says about PPPP’s church i.e. “MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH” Reve- lation 17:5. Grattan Guinness on Rome Born in Dublin, Dr Grattan Guinness (1835-1910) was a great evangelist, author and Bible teacher, who spoke for the genuine believers of his time. The Dublin Daily Express said this of a service he held in 1858, aged 23. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Grattan_Guinness: “An enormous crowd pressed for admittance. Judges, members of Parliament, orators, Fellows of College, lights of the various professions, the rank and fashion of the metropolis have been drawn out. Among them the Lord Lieutenant, the Lord Chancellor and the Lord Justice of Appeal, etc. Such a preacher is a great power, prepared and sent forth by God, and as such Mr. Guinness has been hailed by all denominations.” Dr Grattan Guinness had this to say about Rome. See: whitehorsemedia.com/docs/ROMANISM_AND_THE_REFORMATION.pdf pp 68-69 www.mtc.org/inquis.html THE INQUISITION: A Study in Absolute Catholic Power, Arthur Maricle, Ph.D. “I see the great Apostasy, I see the desolation of Christendom, I see the smoking ruins, I see the reign of monsters; I see those vice-gods, that Gregory VII, that Innocent III, that Boniface Vlll, that Alexander Vl, that Gregory XIII, that Pius IX; I see their long succession, I hear their insufferable blasphemies, I see their abominable lives; I see them worshipped by blinded generations, bestowing hollow benedictions, bartering away worthless promises of heaven; I see their liveried slaves, their shaven priests, their celibate confessors; I see the infamous confessional, the ruined women, the murdered innocents; I hear the lying absolutions, the dying groans; I hear the cries of the victims; I hear the anathemas, the curses, the thunders of the interdicts; I see the racks, the dungeons, the stakes; I see that inhuman Inquisition, those fires of Smithfield, those butcheries of St. Bartholomew, that Spanish Armada, those unspeakable dragonnades, that endless train of wars, that dreadful mul- titude of massacres. I see it all, and in the name of the ruin it has brought in the Church and in the world, in the name of the truth it has denied, the temple it has defiled, the God it has blasphemed, the souls it has de- stroyed; in the name of the millions it has deluded, the millions it has slaughtered, the millions it has damned; with holy confessors, with noble reformers, with innumerable martyrs, with the saints of ages, I denounce it as the masterpiece of Satan, as the body and soul and essence of antichrist.” Amen. Thankfully “strong is the Lord God who judgeth her” Revelation 18:8. “And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God: For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand. And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever” Revelation 19:1-3. The content of the exchanges between PPPP and Bro. Davis and this writer follow as received with this writer’s annotations in blue braces []. Extracts of PPPP’s diatribe inserted in this writer’s re- marks are all shaded in yellow though on occasion as will be seen PPPP has used yellow shading 4 himself. This writer’s annotations are in blue text with citations in green or green italic text unless otherwise stated. No format changes have been made for cited works included in This Wrtier’s Re- sponse, First Exchange and Second Exchange. Some additional material i.e. the texts of scripture verses referenced and page numbers in blue in blue braces []. It will be seen that PPPP has lauded James White as a ‘scholar.’ He is not. PPPP has lied about James White.
