| BIBLE WORD COMPARISON |
| ". . .man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD of God." Luke 4:4 |
Most people believe the new versions are just "harmless" updating
of words and made easier to understand.
Nothing could be further from the Truth!
The new versions "take out" and "add"
thousands of words. And as with Eve (see Genesis 3:1), it s all done very
subtil.
The average reader would never know the difference!
