“Therefore God also hath
highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That
at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and
things in earth, and things under the earth.” (Philippians 2:9,10)
There is NO NAME
greater than the
precious name of Jesus; but there is a greater Book—The Word of God. Why does God magnify His Word above His name?
It's simply because God is only as good as His Word. If God’s Word
is unreliable, then God’s name is unreliable. If God’s name is unreliable, then God is unreliable. Do you see why the Bible is
so important to God? God
Almighty has many names, but none higher than “Jesus.” Amen!
“Jesus” is the name which the Scriptures uplift, the name which
brings salvation (Acts 4:10-12), the Name which is ABOVE EVERY other name. Yet, God magnifies His written Word higher than the name of
Jesus!
Folks, this stuff is real! I’ve heard numerous believers’ say foolish things; such as, “We
should all get along as Christians and not argue over trifle things like which
version of the Bible to use.” Though
I understand their perspective, they are wrong. Yes, I agree that we should get along;
but not at the expense of truth.
Read this statement:
I would rather be divided over truth,
than to be united by error!
Did you get that? Let me say it again…
I would rather be divided over truth,
than to be united by error!
The problem is that many of God’s
children place their PRIORITIES on unity and fellowship, at the expense of
truth. This is the major problem with the
Ecumenical Movement, which aims to unite different religious groups with
little or no focus upon the truth of God's Word. Read the following Scripture:
“My people are destroyed for lack of
knowledge…” (Hosea 4:6)
Notice that the
following Scripture calls doctrinal confused
adults, “children.”
“That we henceforth be no more
children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine,
by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to
deceive;” (Ephesians 4:14)
Are you
childish in your thinking? Or are
you grounded in God’s Word?
“As also in all his (Paul’s) epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be
understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do
also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.” (2nd Peter 3:16)
Many
believers are unlearned and unstable; they have never grown up in the Lord. They are still little children in their spirituality
(1st Corinthians 3:1). They think the whole King James matter is a big joke. Do you think Psalm 138:2 is a joke. If you do, you have problems. God has elevated His Word above His name, that’s how important the
Bible issue is to Him. If the Bible is so important to God that He is willing to
magnify It above His holy name—then how dare anyone make light of the issue.
“Lest Satan should get an advantage of
us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.” (2nd Corinthians 2:11)
One of
Satan’s devices is fake, imposter, counterfeit bibles—are you still
ignorant?
“But I would not have you to be
ignorant,
brethren…” (1st Thessalonians 4:13)
It is a
shame how many of God’s children have ignorantly fallen for the Devil’s
counterfeit bibles. The
god of this world (Satan) is the father of the
New International Version (NIV),
as we’ll as ALL other modern translations. The old 1611
King James Bible has stood the test of time. We don’t need
another Bible in this country—We need revival! I think the following Scripture tells us why Zondervan and other ungodly
people have corrupted the word of God:
“Yea, they are greedy dogs which can
never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look
to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.” (Isaiah 56:11)
If you love the Lord
friend—trash your NIV, ASV, NKJV, ESV, et cetera . . . and go get yourself a real Bible,
the King James Bible!
I am grieved when I hear other folks
who claim to be Christians criticizing those of us who take a stand for what is
right. A perfect example of this is
our stand upon the King James Bible as God’s preserved Word. Without a doubt,
believers are far too complacent on the issue of the Bible. The
same believers who can recognize a false religion (such as Jehovah's Witnesses) fail to recognize that Satan has infiltrated our churches
with false bibles. Do you have any
idea just how important the Bible is to God?
