THE REASON THE NEWER BIBLES DIFFER FROM THE KJV IS DUE TO GNOSTIC CHANGES

[Ronald Nolette]

There is a lot of circumstantial evidence, that they are young. But I would need all the historical documents about how they were found, and their extreme number of variants. These are much more than you would find credited in English or, printed with apparatus, Greek bible.

It is too much study for me to do it justice.

Well you need to do some work instead of just relying on this mysterious circumstantial evidence. there is tons of empirical evidenc eonline to substantiate their near approximate dates if you are interested.

There seems itself incriminating activities and circumstances. I doubt anyone can poorly copy a manuscript during the medieval period and before without being extremely sloppy. It seems the errant codices have any agenda aswell. Errant manuscripts either get corrected or thrown away.

Then name those incrimninating activities and circumstances. Accusations without evidence is just a pile of cow dung.

I think gnosticism is inherently human because there is some aspect of reality that seems spiritual. So I would imagine its easy to mix up with Christs bodily resurrection.

In fact I think the idea of bodily resurrection was fringe and even mocked as a belief. This was the birth of such ideas. I think it was a gnostic sect that claimed they were also "the way" like Christians. But in a purely spiritual and out of this world sense.

I think this is what makes Christianity different. That Christ actually rose from the dead pychically and defeated death itself. The gnostic worldview was mystical and spiritual and abstract. Which coincided with the world at that time.

I think in some ways postmodern culture has become gnostic and spiritual about the world. The belief in a real inner self beyond the world. Newage beliefs in the spiritual aspect of self and nature.

Under postmodernist and constructionist theories words create reality. Meanings are reimagined and changed. We see thisin mainstream literature and media. So I think this would also influence some bible translations.

In fact I think like in the early church Christian creeds are first developed and this becomes the words and teachings later written down. I think new creeds are being orally exchanged reflecting modern concerns. Which is then reimagining and giving new meaning to the bible.

Churches will usually first practice the creeds which then lead to reinterpreting the bible. Feminism is a good example. The creeds of feminism filtered through the culture including the church. This then led to new ways to interpret the bible. But creeds around gender, sex and egalitarianism were influencing the church. Which gradually change the interpretation and meaning of the bible.

The end result being no clear truth and true way and everything mystical and relative and about personal experiences. Rather than the simple gosple.
