What Think Ye of Christ, Whose Son Is He KING JAMES VERSION BIBLE Chapter 1: What Think Ye of Christ, Whose Son is He George Washington once said, “That a Bible reading people could never be enslaved.” Yet, today people are not sure if we even have a Bible. If so, can it be believed or is it just mythical? It is reasonable to believe that if God created a creature who uses words (write and speaks them) that God could give them a book from him. The Bible is the sole authority for faith and practice. It is our only source of all we know about salvation, and the only source of doctrine. What keeps man from reading the Bible with a believing attitude? Pride of Life. 1. Man is proud of himself and self accomplishments 2. When man is not pleased with himself, or his future, he may turn then. 3. God uses loneliness, family problems, illness, destroyed dreams, even death to move man to his Word. When one questions the infallibility of the scriptures, the old testament, who wrote it, is it real, is it just mythical, the real question is “who is Jesus.” Matthew 22:41-46 Whose son is he? 1. How can Christ be David’s son if David called him Lord? Everyone must answer that question. Heb. 1: 5, 8 Thou art my son Matt. 3:13-17 This is my beloved son. 1. The baptism of Christ John 1:1, 2, 14 In the beginning was the Word 1. Christ is God, Christ was with God, is God, was made flesh Gen. 1:26, 27 Let us 1. Who is us? 2. What or who is man? After what image is man? Matt. 1:18-25 Birth of Christ Luke 2:8-14 Born a Saviour 1 2010 (MD) Who is Jesus? Ps. 12:6-7 The words of the Lord Whose words are we going to be talking about? The new believer has no problem believing that God gave man a book that comes from God. 1. But, then he becomes educated and his faith in the Bible, his faith in God becomes weakened. 2. The less influence it has on him. 3. The more he thinks there is error, the more he disobeys it. Chapter 2: The Word of God its Purity, Preservation, Publication Ps. 12.6,7 Tells us two things 1. V.6, it’s purity 2. V.7, it’s preservation (keep from spoiling, protected, saved) We believe the King James Version is the preserved Word of God. 1. If it is perfect, (not King James, the scriptures), how can there be contradiction? 2. There are apparent contradictions in the Bible, but in reality, there are none. 3. One must approach these apparent contradictions with strong, steadfast, Bible-believing faith that there is an answer. (usually involving numbers) How can we know the Bible is really the Word of God? 1. The Bible declares that is the Word of God, or thus saith the Lord. No other book says this unless it is quoting the Bible. 2. “Thus saith the Lord” is used 2,000 times. II Peter 1:19-21 No private interpretation 1. God spoke his word—man did not 2. Not by man’s will Heb. 1:1 God who at sundry (various) times 1. God spoke to man; shared his thoughts, desires, will to man II Tim. 3:16, 17 All scripture is given by inspiration of God 1. God inspired the scriptures. They are the word of God. 2. There is nothing else man needs to understand the will of God, the doctrine of God. 2 2010 (MD) Jer. 1:8-10 The words that Jeremiah was preaching were God’s words. 1. Jeremiah didn’t share his thoughts, but God’s. 2. Verse 10—the reason for the word. Jer. 36:1-4 Take the a role of a book 1. The word of God was shared, not man’s II Sam. 23:1-2 Spirit of the Lord spake I Sam. 59:21 My words, which I put in thee How can we know the Bible is the Word of God? It’s protection: Matt. 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass…my words shall not 1. The earth and heaven will be gone one day, but not the Words of God. The Bible is the most beloved book in the world. It’s also the most hated. Enemies have done everything they could to get rid of it 1. The conflict over different Bible versions is just another Satanic trick. 2. If he can’t burn it or destroy it, then he will counterfeit it. 3. He attempts to steal its influence (power) by watering it down. 4. It hasn’t been the common man that has attempted to destroy it, but the kings, those with power, money, those with a sword. Jer. 36:1-4 God commanded his word written down Jer. 36:21-23 The king destroys the Book of Jeremiah 1. He cut out what he did not like and destroyed it. 2. Do people still cut out what they don’t like? Jer. 36:32 God commanded Jeremiah to write 1. The fall of Jerusalem was predicted in those pages. He thought if they were cut out, it wouldn’t happen. 2. We think if we don’t listen then it will not happen. 3 2010 (MD) The Roman Emperor Diocletian ordered all Bibles to be brought to him to be burned. He thought he had destroyed Christianity from spreading. After his death came Constantine, who was a deceiver. To the persecuted Christian, he seemed like an answered prayer. Laws were passed that stopped the burning at the stakes, people being thrown to lions, and people thought they would have their freedom. However, these laws brought about unity of Christianity and paganism, out of which came Catholicism. Diocletian thought all Bibles had been destroyed. Yet when Constantine came to the throne, he asked if there were any Bibles. In a short time, fifty copies were brought to him. This type of story repeats itself over and over throughout our history. God is the protector of his word. Matt. 24:35 Heaven and Earth shall pass Matt. 5:18 Till Heaven and Earth shall pass Even if man could get rid of his word on Earth, God has a copy in Heaven. Ps. 119:89 Settled in Heaven Satan attempts today to destroy God’s Word from the inside. Some people are truly seeking his word and it is being replaced with a false version. Chapter 3: How can we know the Bible is the Word of God? 1. The Bible is perfect: 66 books written over a period of 1,500 years; over 40 different writers, and yet each book perfectly harmonizes with each other. 2. Many of those writers did not know one another, yet only god can make that happen. 3. The theme is consistent throughout. The inspiration of God can be clearly seen. Before Columbus proved the Earth was round, the scriptures stated it. Is. 40:22 Sitteth upon the circle of the earth 1. Columbus believed it to be round because of the scriptures. True science does not contradict scripture. Lev. 17:11 Life of the flesh is in the blood. Job 26:7 He stretched out the north. Hangeth Earth… 1. We know truly since man has gone into space that the earth hangs on nothing. 4 2010 (MD) I Cor. 15:39 All flesh is not the same 1. The Bible declared not all flesh the same. 2. Medical science used to laugh at that and declared all flesh the same and all blood is the same. 3. It took until the 1930s before scientists discovered that flesh is not the same. Ps. 19:1 The Heavens declare the glory of God. 1. The same mark of God that is seen in creation is also seen in his word. In the realm of insects (entomology), there are certain scientific facts concerning how many eggs a particular insect lays, how many hatch, and the gestation period for these eggs. What is interesting is that various numbers are evenly divisible by seven—the mark of God’s handiwork. No two snowflakes, no two leaves, no two raindrops are identical. This is another mark of God’s creation. If the scriptures are perfect, it must have the same mathematical perfection that the leaves on trees, raindrops, etc. The Old Testament was written in Hebrew. The New Testament was written in Greek. There is a mathematical structure that runs through the scriptures. It is a uniform design that goes from Genesis to Revelation. In the first chapter of Matthew the genealogy in the original language, the number of words in the vocabulary of the genealogy can be evenly divided by seven. The number seven is God’s number of completion. The number of words beginning with a vowel can also be divided by seven. The words divided by a consonant are also divided by seven. The number of letters in the vocabulary of the genealogy is also divided by seven. Is this all just coincidence? The same structure is seen throughout the scriptures: 1. The number of words that occurred more than once 2. Number that occurred in only one form. 3. Number of words that occurred in more than one form. 4. Numbers of words that begin with each letter of the letters of the alphabet. 5. Number o f nouns. 6. Number of female nouns all divisible by seven. 7.

  • “Canon” Or “Canonicity” in Christianity Refers to a Collection of Many Books Acknowledged Or Recognized by the Early Church As Inspired by God
    Canonicity Introduction The term “canon” or “canonicity” in Christianity refers to a collection of many books acknowledged or recognized by the early church as inspired by God. Both Jews and Christians possess canons of Scripture. We must remember that the first Christians did not possess a New Testament canon but rather they relied on the gospel that was being proclaimed to them by the apostles and others. They also relied on the books of the Old Testament canon. The Jewish canon consists of thirty-nine books while on the other hand the Christian canon consists of sixty-six for Protestants and seventy-three for Catholics. The Protestant canon has thirty- nine Old Testament books like the Jews and twenty-seven works compose the New Testament. The subject of canonicity is an extremely important subject for the Christian to grasp since it answers the question as to why certain books found their way into the Bible and why others did not. It answers the question as to whether or not the church determined what was in the Bible and what would not be included. Did the church determine which books got into the Bible or did the church merely recognize that certain Christian literary works were inspired and others were not? This article seeks to answer this important question. The subject of canonicity also answers the question as to whether or not certain criteria was employed by the church to determine which books were inspired by God and which were not. If there was certain criteria employed, then what tests did the church use to identify certain works as inspired and those which were not.

After Henry VIII and his two daughters (Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth I) died, James VI of Scotland (son of Mary Queen of Scots) also became James I of Great Britain. The King was to play a pivotal role in the Bible's journey to the 21st century. Not long after James became king, scholars discussed the need for a new English translation of the Bible. Reformers, fleeing to Switzerland during the reign of Queen Mary, had published a Bible in English (the Geneva Bible). The Geneva Bible (the version used by Shakespeare and America's "pilgrim fathers") existed in many different editions. King James referred to it as "the worst." By 1604, James I convened the Hampton Court Conference. The King and the conference attendees agreed to commission a new translation. Using Hebrew and Greek manuscripts, collectively known as the Textus Receptus, scholars called this new translation the King James Version (KJV) in honor of the king who had authorized it.

  • Why We Reject the Apocrypha,” the Evangelical Quarterly 1.4 (October 1929): 361-366
    Edward C. Unmack, “Why We Reject The Apocrypha,” The Evangelical Quarterly 1.4 (October 1929): 361-366. Why We Reject The Apocrypha Edward C. Unmack [p.361] A one-volume commentary has recently been issued entitled A New Commentary on Holy Scripture, Including the Apocrypha. This, in effect, puts the Apocrypha on the same level with the books of the Old and New Testaments of the ordinary Protestant Bible. This tendency to level the Bible and the Apocrypha has again and again manifested itself in the history of the Christian religion. Two forces are at work which aim at so levelling them. On the one hand Sacerdotalism, finding some of its favourite doctrines supported in the Apocryphal books, has sought from time to time to raise them to the same authority as Holy Scripture, as was deliberately attempted to be done by a decree of the Council of Trent in the year 1546. On the other hand, Modernism brings down the religious records of the Old and New Testaments to the level of ordinary human writings, and so to the level of the Apocrypha. In accordance with these tendencies it is not surprising that the New Commentary on the Bible described as, Including the Apocrypha, contains both Sacerdotal and Modernist elements. However, Churches of all ages, and Protestantism in particular, have rejected the Books of the Apocrypha as not inspired, and as on a different level altogether from those of the Old and New Testaments. The evidence for this can conveniently be grouped under two headings: (1) The history of the Books; and (2) their contents.

  • Areas of Doctrinal Differences
    PART 2 AREAS OF DOCTRINAL DIFFERENCES In the first part of this volume we have stressed what evangelicals have in common with Roman Catholics. In short, this includes the great fundamentals of the Christian faith, including a belief in the Trinity, the virgin birth, the deity of Christ, the creation and subsequent fall of humanity, Christ’s unique atonement for our sins, the physical resurrection of Christ, the necessity of God’s grace for salvation, the existence of heaven and hell, the second coming of Christ, and the verbal inspiration and infallibility of Scripture. In spite of all these similarities in belief, however, there are some significant differences between Catholics and evangelicals on some important doctrines. Catholics affirm and evangelicals reject the immaculate conception of Mary, her bodily assumption, her role as corredemptrix, the veneration of Mary and other saints, prayers to Mary and the saints, the infallibility of the pope, the existence of purgatory, the inspiration and canonicity of the Apocrypha, the doctrine of transubstantiation, the worship of the transformed Host, the special sacerdotal powers of the Roman Catholic priesthood, and the necessity of works to obtain eternal life. Since all of these have been proclaimed as infallible dogma by the Roman Catholic Church, and since many are contrary to central teachings of evangelicalism, there appears to be no hope of ecumenical or ecclesiastical unity. Here we must recognize our differences and agree to disagree agreeably, knowing that there are many doctrines we hold in common (see Part One) and many things we can do together morally, socially, and educationally (see Part Three).

They introduced the vowel pointing system that we have today and also the text that represents the best Hebrew tradition of the OT. It is the text that the Jewish community uses today. 2. The Septuagint (LXX) a Greek translation of the Hebrew Text made in Alexandria Egypt about 200BC. Tradition (the letter of Aristeas) tells the story of 72 Hebrew scribes making the translation in 72 days, The LXX is often quoted by NT writers and frequently differs from the original Hebrew Text. The order and number of books in the LXX differs from the original Hebrew. The Protestant Bible follows the ordering of the LXX’s books and the content of the Hebrew Bible (which excludes the apocrypha).

  • Religious Transactions in Colonial South India: Language, Translation
    48 Book Reviews Missionary translations, which were word for word renderings in Tamil from other language texts, differed significantly from the long history of “translations,” that is, rewritings in Tamil Reviews from other Indian languages.

Although the first Roman Catholic Religious Transactions in Colonial South India: Language, Tamil Bible was considerably later (NT 1857, OT 1904) than Translation and the Making of Protestant Identity, by the Protestant (NT 1714, OT 1727), there were Tamil Roman Hephzibah Israel (Palgrave Studies in Cultural and Intellectual Catholic writings well before the arrival of Protestants.

  • Respectful Language: Scholars No Longer Use Christian-Centric Terms BC (Before Christ) and AD (Anno Domini- “In the Year of Our Lord”)
    Respectful language: Scholars no longer use Christian-centric terms BC (before Christ) and AD (Anno Domini- “in the year of our Lord”). Instead most scholarly works use CE for “Common Era”; and BCE for “before Common Era”. Some people now avoid the term Old Testament or New Testament, opting instead for “Older” and “Newer” Testaments, “First” and “Second” Covenant, Hebrew or Christian Bible, though none of these are perfect. Some prefer to us the terms that Jewish and Christian people use to identify “their own” books: Tanakh, Christian Canon, or the specific genre, such as Gospels, Letters, Pastorals, etc. For a fuller exploration of the United Church’s relationship to Judaism, see Bearing Faithful Witness; United Church-Jewish Relations Today; a study document approved by the 36th General Council of the UCC. TaNaKh – is an acronym from three Hebrew letters (“T+N+K”), like U.N.E.S.C.O. or N.A.T.O.; T = TORAH is a term derived from archery, having to do with “hitting the target”; it also means “instruction” or “teachings”, and “law”.
