Freedom Journey


This blog was created on Saturday March 22, 2014, and is geared to folks whose steadfast aim is freedom through learning, teaching and DOING truth. Incorrect beliefs can prevent constructive forward motions. We cannot afford to allow ignorance, pride and stubbornness to keep us deceived.

Refuse to be prisoners of your perceptions. Cast away nonsense traditions. Freedom resides in authentic and proven truths.

REAL truth is freedom!

Only GOD is perfect. It's vital to seek the Lord to expose errors. Please ask Him to expose any areas of darkness and for what is necessary to DO to dispossess what's NOT of truth.

Are There Errors in the Holy Bible?

Hi - 

There are folks who believe that the Holy Bible is infallible -- incapable of being wrong.  Is that a false teaching?

I  present that I read Acts 13:33 in three Bibles, two of which were published BEFORE the 1611 King James Bible.  Those two are the Tyndale (about 1534) and the Geneva (1560) Bibles. Note that the English used in the older versions is different than the English used in the King James Bibles that we’re most familiar with -- so I’m NOT misspelling when I express what’s written in the Tyndale, Geneva and 1611 King James Bibles.

Acts 13:33 - KJV -- Capitalizations mine

From the Tyndale Bible:

God hath fulfilled unto us their chyldre in that he reysed vp Iesus agayne eve as it is written in the FYRSTE  PSALME: Thou arte my sonne this same daye begat I the.  

From the Geneva Bible:

God hath fulfilled it vnto vs their children, in that he raised vp Iesus, euen as it is written in the SECONDE PSALME, . . .

King James 1611:

God hath fulfilled the same vnto vs their children, in that he hath raised vp Iesus againe, as I is also written in the SECOND PSALM: . . .

The subject information is actually in the SECOND PSALM
yet the Tyndale Bible indicates that the subject information is in the FIRST PSALM.

Does that not debunk the beliefs that Holy Bible content is infallible -- incapable of being wrong?

Note: For those who don’t have Tyndale and Geneva Bibles . . . , content from them can be found online.

Update:  The issue of the first and second Psalms could be a matter of placement of verses in the earlier versions of the Bible.  That could explain the matter . . .

Another example:

From the King James Bible (not the 1611 version) - Capitalizations mine:

In the gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke, we read the account about the unclean spirits leaving and entering the swine.  Well, Matthew says that it was TWO MEN out of the tombs.  Mark and Luke say that it was ONE MAN.

Matthew 8:28
. . . there met him TWO possessed with devils, coming OUT OF THE TOMBS, . . .

Matthew 8:32
. . . and when they were come out, they went INTO THE HERD OF SWINE: . . .

Mark 5:2
. . . immediately there met him out of the tombs, A MAN with an unclean spirit,

Mark 5:13
. . . and the unclean spirits went out, and ENTERED INTO THE SWINE.


Luke 8:27
And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a certain MAN, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither abode in any house, but IN THE TOMBS.

Luke 8:33
Then went the devils out of THE MAN, and ENTERED INTO THE SWINE: . . .

Holy Bible content is an excellent resource.  I believe it to be the best written resource made available to us by the SOURCE, Almighty GOD. It's vital to be mindful that the Holy Spirit is power -- a teacher -- a witness, . . . 

No book contains infallibility.  There's NO SUITABLE substitute for God/Jesus and the Holy Spirit -- therein lies INFALLIBILITY -- PURE AND ABSOLUTE TRUTHS.
