ALEXANDRIA - Alexandria is in Egypt
and God does not like Egypt.
*Egypt was a place of licentiousness, rape and
murder. Genesis 12:10-13 - Abraham was afraid. Why? Egypt was a vile land
where God's people were held in slavery. It was in Egypt where Pharaoh
slaughtered little children (Exodus 1).
Exodus 20:2 - “a house of bondage”
Deuteronomy 17:16 - Stay away from Egypt -
“return no more”
Hosea 11:1 - Israel being God's son (nearful);
Matthew 2:19-21 - Jesus at age two came out of Egypt (farful). God does not
like Egypt!
Genesis 47:29-30 - Jacob tells Joseph, “Don't
bury me in Egypt!” Jacob didn't want to be buried ther, so they carried his
bones around for 300 years.
Revelation 11:8 - God likens Egypt to Sodom.
QUESTION: If you were God, would you bring your
pure Word out of a corrupt place such as Alexandria? No way! Alexandria was
a seedbed of humanism! It was founded by Alexander the Great.
Acts 18:24-26 - Alexandria was known for error.
God had to use Aquila and Priscilla to strengthen Apollos. “they took him
unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly.”
Apollos was born at Alexandria.
Romans 16:3-5 - Who were Aquila and Priscilla?
They were close friends of Paul. They had a New Testament church in their
home.
Luke was probably Paul's best friend.
Acts 27:1-6 (verse 6 - A ship of Alexandria was
going to carry Paul to Rome, Italy so Nero could cut off his head).
Acts 28:11 - Alexandrian ship again - “we
departed in a ship of Alexandria”; Verse 14 - “we went toward Rome”; Verse
16 - They arrive in Rome. It was here years later that Nero beheaded him.
*“Pantaenus”
- Founded the Catechetical School in Alexandria about 180 A.D. based on
humanistic philosophy. HERESY! Pantaenus attacked the Scriptures (no
infallible Scriptures). It is still the doctrine of Alexandria today.
Twenty years later “Clement”
(150-215 AD) took Pantaenus place and mixed religion with philosophy to
produce corrupt manuscripts.
II Corinthians 2:17 - “corrupt” (Many at Paul's
time were corrupting the Bible).
II Peter 3:15-16 - In Peter's time there were
those who were perverting the Bible.
Verse 17 - WATCH OUT CHRISTIAN! Peter calls
Scripture wrestling “the error of the wicked”!
Verse 17 - “being led away” From what? From
believing the Bible is infallible!
*Clement mocked Jesus' miracles , flat out
denied the deity, and taught his students against the Bible.
Adamanchus Origen (185-254 AD) - Took over after Clement as president.
The Devil was his father. A hateful enemy of the Bible. The most influential
religious figure of his generation. He produced a 6-volume Bible. He changed
all he disagreed with, like creation. You can find this information in a
good public library. Origen described the Trinity as a hierarchy, not as an
equality of Father, Son, and Spirit. Origen wrote many books. One being “The
Logos Doctrine,” attacking the deity of Christ.
*Origen was the real founder of the Jehovah's
Witnesses (JW's).
*Origen taught that only the original
manuscripts were perfect. He did not believe in an inerrant Bible, as most
Bible colleges today don't believe either.
IT ALL CORRUPTED IN ALEXANDRIA! Our enemies are
literal Alexandrians today!
*Eusevius
lived during Constantine's time. Constantine told Eusevius to produce a
Bible that all people would like. Obviously a King James Bible wouldn't have
sufficed. Eusevius took Origen's place and used his doctrine.
*Jerome used Eusevius' Bible which was from
Origen's work. Jerome wrote the Catholic Bible.
*In 1546 - Alexandrian Catholic Bible by
Jerome.
“Apocrypha” means not inspired.
TWO ALEXANDRIANS:
- Brooke Foss Westcott (1825-1901)
- Fenton John Anthony Hort (1828-1892)
These two men produced a Bible over 30 years
which was Alexandrian based.
*All Bibles today used this corrupt text,
except the King James Bible and the Catholic Bible. The Catholic Bible came
from the Vaticanus Text.
*Westcott and Hort were liberal, class A,
heretics and Origen, Eusevius and Jerome were their heroes. Going on record
to say, “The Bible was to be treated no better than any other Book.”
Evolution without God was taught. No Bible could be taken literally. They
were Mary worshippers. They attended séances. They were spiritualists.
Job 14:4 - Who can bring a clean thing out of
an unclean? Not one, unclean men cannot yield purity!
Matthew 7:15-20 - Satan is the author of
confusion!
*Don't judge Dr. Hyles by the accusations.
Anybody can make up a lie. Look at his fruit (Matthew 7:20).
*The green monster of jealousy has ruined many
a men.
ANTIOCH, SYRIA
150 AD - There was a scholar at the First
Baptist Church (literally) of Antioch named “Lucion.” He taught his students
that they held the infallible, inerrant, Words of God in their hand. A
warrior against pagan philosophy! A Baptist! He taught his students to rely
on God's Word.
Antiochan ideology = Man shall not live by
bread alone, but by every Word of God.
*Erasmus (a Greek scholar) published a Greek
Bible, put aside the Alexandrian manuscripts, and published a Greek New
Testament in Rotterdam. The Waldensians/Anabaptists (“Ana” means “to do it
over again”; They would re-baptize those who were already baptized in other
religions).
*In 1523 Erasmus wrote a book about the
Waldensians, professing faith in Christ. Pope Paul IV said no Roman Catholic
could read Erasmus' books. He put out five New Testament texts.
*July 22, 1604 - King James I announced he had
selected 54 men to translated the Bible into English (seven men dropped out
before the work began because they felt unqualified). There were 47 men.
They averaged 60 years of age. They averaged 40 years of Greek and Hebrew.
Three men died during the translation.
Forty-four men did the translating in 6 groups:
- Two Westminster
- Two Oxford
- Two Cambridge
For three years these men did nothing but pray
for God's help before they started.
*The King James translators were humble and
didn't feel worthy to do it. Today's yardbirds claim to be doing the world a
favor.
*Each group took a section of the Bible. These
groups met periodically to compare one another's work, and each man's
translation was read aloud so the others could here. They even washed their
hands and prayed before they started each time.
*Baby baptism did not start in England until
about 20 years after the King James Bible.
*Each man of each group would translate each
book in his allotted section.
*When the authorized Bible was finished, 12 men
(two from each group) spent 10-12 hours daily restudying their work
(especially hard areas in translating). In 1910 it was sent to the royal
publisher and the first printed Bible authorized by King James came off the
press in 1611.
*James would not allow tobacco to be sold in
England—Don't tell me he was a queer!
*22 years after the King James Bible, the
traditional text came out.
QUESTION: Why did God use 44 puritans instead
of Baptists to translate the Bible? ANSWER: Simple, because Baptists were
not living long enough to become scholars. They were being murdered!
*What good is a phantom Bible?
*How can I trust in some originals that do not
exist?
*There never has been a collection of 66
original books. Most were already decayed when the latter part of the Old
Testament was written.
Autographs = original parchments (in
neo-evangelical terms)
*Alexandrian double-talk (They're good at it!)
- Just give them a lot rope and they'll hang themselves.
*Even the Alexandrians will call the King James
Bible “the Word of God,” yet say it's inerrant—DOUBLE TALK! Would God
produce an imperfect Word? Pensacola does this! This constitutes criminal
deception!
Romans 12:7 - Why don't these bird dogs get
honest and just admit they don't believe God's Word! It all goes back to
“Yea, hath God said” (“said,” not “asked”)!
*It all boils down to man wanting authority
over God's Word. Man wants to run his own life!
*Watch out for the Alexandrian PhD's who think
they know more than God!
Psalms 102:18, “This shall be written for
the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall
praise the LORD.” Future generations are created by God.
Isaiah 59:21 - “words” (plural) to be
preserved. Isaiah 59:21, “As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith
the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put
in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy
seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the LORD, from
henceforth and for ever.”
Psalms 102:18 - “shall be written for the
generation to come” (preservation).
“The originals were inerrant.” Prove it! By
what authority do you know the originals were inspired? Don't you dare use a
Bible verse if you believe it has errors in it! Satan is the God of the
Alexandrians!
*John MacArthur teaches that God promised to
preserve the content. THIS IS A LIE! Where does he get his authority for
this?
*I have an authority because I believe the
Bible is inspired!
*There was a day when all people spoke one
language.
Mark 16:15-16 - “he that believeth and is
baptized shall be saved.” You say, “Baptism is necessary to salvation” —
Keep reading, “But he that believeth not shall be damned.” We are damned for
not believing, not for not being baptized.
Also, verse 15, “Go ye into all the world”:
- You can't baptize jail inmates.
- How would you baptize in the desert?
- How about at the South Pole?
Baptism is not a means of salvation, but is
only an evidence of salvation.
*The King James Bible has been translated into
more than 900 languages.
*There were no original manuscripts in Paul's
day.
Romans 15:4 - Paul claimed he had the
Scriptures, even those he only had copies (not originals). The originals
were in Hebrew anyway.
*The King James Bible has undergone six
editions, not revisions.
“Revisions” - “to look over and correct.” The
first King James Bible had some printer mistakes, but no translation errors;
The second edition took care of this.
Edit = “to prepare for publication” (The form
of the spelling has changed). The King James Bible has never been revised,
only edited (because spellings back then were changing quickly).
*A double-minded man in all his ways in
unstable. An Alexandrian is unstable! Again, God is not the author of
confusion!
*Alexandrians have no common sense because
they're so filled with hate towards the King James Bible and us.
Psalms 89:34 - God promises not to alter
anything He has said. Nor will he go back on his word. If God won't change
His mind, what gives us a right to do so?
II Timothy 3:15 - Paul had no originals, yet
called His (Timothy's) writings “Scripture.” - “that from a child thou hast
known the holy Scriptures.”
605 BC - First invasion - Nobles taken and
Daniel (II Chronicles 36:2-7).
Daniel 1 - Nebuchadnezzar teaches Jews a new
language.
Daniel 2:4; II Kings 18:26 - The Syrian
language later became known as the Aramaic.
70 years later in 535 BC, Cyrus (King of
Persia), conquers Babylon (Jeremiah 25:1 11-12).
Ezra 1:1-4 - The temple is rebuilt and the Jews
go back to Jerusalem. Most Jews had already died during the 40 years, so the
children who had grown and come out of captivity spoke and wrote Aramaic,
not Hebrew as their fathers did.
Nehemiah 8:1-3 - Ezra was a scribe and priest
(verse 6 - “And all the people answered, Amen, Amen” - People were Baptists
back then!). Note: Ezra had to speak in Aramaic! That's the only language
all the Jews knew! (verse 6 - “all the people”). Obviously, Nehemiah had a
translation.
Nehemiah 8:1 - Wow! They had “the book of
the law of Moses”! It had to be a copy. Neo's bring up translations more
than anything. Remember, where's your authority by which you claim what you
do? You can't use Scripture because you don't believe it's perfect.
*You could have and read eight different Bibles
and it would sound like tongues if read out loud simultaneously. God is not
the author of confusion.
*Matthew 27:46 - Matthew translates Jesus'
words for us (verse 47 - The Jews thought he was calling Elijah - “Eli, Eli”
is Hebrew. Obviously, these Jews did not know Hebrew, but Aramaic.
Psalms 12:6-7 - Seven is God's number of
perfection!
THE FIRST SEVEN LANGUAGES GOD PUT HIS
WORD IN:
- Hebrew
- Aramaic
- Greek
- Old Syriac
- Old Latin
- German
- English (God's number of perfection - The
Authorized Version 1611 King James Bible)
Since 1611, the next 158 years, the English
language underwent rapid changes. Remember, it was editions, not revisions!
KING JAMES BIBLE EDITIONS IN
CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER:
- 1611
- 1613
- 1617
- 1629
- 1638
- 1743
- 1769 (This is what we have, perfectly
punctuated). There will never be a number eight!
The English people during these 158 years tried
to lay down some ground rules.
“Charity” means sacrificial love.
No man could write the Bible, and no man would
write the Bible if he could (because it condemns man). Man is trying to
destroy it!
*The King James Bible has 810,697 words
(including italics).
*The King James Bible contains 31,175 verses.
(Note: Respectfully,
Dr. Al
Lacy is wrong, there are actually 31,102 verses in the King James Bible,
and no center verse. I just want to be as factual as possible. These errant
statistics on the King James Bible are all over the internet and in
preaching tapes).
*God hovers over His Word. After all, He's
magnified it above His name.
Psalms 118:8 - “It is better to trust in the
Lord than to put confidence in man” (This verse is the center of the Bible).
Wow! There are 14 words (double times 7). Seven for the Old Testament and
seven for the New Testament. Notice the middle two words, “the Lord” is the
center of His Word.
Psalms 118:8 - The Lord is at the center of His
Word.
1382 - Wycliffe translated an English Bible.
Where is it today? Is Matthew 24:35 a lie?
1536 - The Tyndale Bible. Where is it? Was it
God's Word? No!
1550 - The Geneva Bible, by puritans. Where is
it? Is it inspired? No!
The King James Bible has stood the test of
time! I don't care what “Dr. dry as dust” says!
Mark 12:12-13 - an “unclean spirit” and “a
devil.”
Luke 8:2 - “evil spirits”
Ephesians 2:2 - Satan is a spirit!
Demon = a devil; evil spirit; or a person or
thing regarded as evil or cruel (Webster's dictionary)
Devil = A (The chief evil spirit, Satan; or, B)
Any demon of Hell, or a very wicked or reckless person (Webster's
dictionary).
No problem! The problem is in the minds of the
Alexandrians!
John 6:70 - Judas called “a devil”! Judas is a
devil (diabolos in the Greek).
HOLY SPIRIT
Capital “S” or lower case “s” with Holy Spirit
has to do with the job the Holy Spirit is performing at that given time.
“Pneuma” (Greek) = Air
Romans 8:16 - “itself” (neuter) is proper; Air
is not feminine or masculine. “Itself” is correct. “Himself” would be heresy
(Romans 8:26).
I Peter 1:11 - “spirit of Christ” and “it”
John 4:21-23 - “God” is neuter here. “We know
WHAT (neuter) we worship” - God is called “what”!
The Holy Spirit is called “it”! Even the NIV
calls God “what” in John 4:21-23. Yet, Neo's criticize Romans 8:16 in the
King James Bible, saying that calling the Holy Spirit “itself” is
disrespectful. (Brussels sprouts in the Girl Scouts; Pinto beans in the
Marines)
Even the new King James Version calls the
father “what.” They're being two-faced and no wonder—THEY'RE DOUBLE-MINDED!
Luke 1:34-35 - Jesus is called “a holy thing”
(neuter). “holy one” in the NIV.
Revelation 1:5 - The Lamb of God is called “it”
(neuter). The NIV and NKJV call Jesus “it” here. Those hypocrites!
Dr. Milton is an idiot, not a Baptist! He says
in the King James Bible “Ecclesia” shouldn't be “Church,” yet he preaches in
“churches” (a double standard). If the King James Bible is so bad, why does
he speak in “churches”?
BAPTISM
Baptizo was transliterated.
1644 - Sprinkling began in the English church -
See:
The History of English Baptists (Thomas Crosby), and An Essay to Restore
the Dipping of Infants (John Floyer), and
A History of the Baptists (John T. Christian). You'll find in these
books that the English Church immersed people until 1644 when baptizing.
“Immersed” means completely dunked in water.
To translate “baptizo” from Greek would make it
“dip” or “immerse” in English - God knew what He was doing! We associate
“church” and “baptize” with God!
Romans 8:1 - “who walk not after the flesh, but
after the Spirit.” The Alexandrian texts leave this out! They say it is
heresy, but Romans 8:8-9 explains this truth. They claim that a period, not
a comma, should follow Jesus Christ in Romans 8:1, but they're wrong!
EASTER
Easter = a 5 day (the last 5 days of April
26-30) pagan holiday season.
Ishtar (Easter in English) is the feminine God.
Sometimes it was 4 and not 5 days. Ishtar was the goddess or reproduction.
Esther was not called “Esther” until she became queen. They attributed the
changes of nature to Ishtar. Both the rabbit and the egg are symbols of
reproduction. Easter has absolutely nothing to do with the resurrection of
Jesus Christ!
*29 times “pasca” is found in the Textus
Receptus. 28 times the King James Bible translated it “Passover” and once
“Easter.” Why?
Exodus 12:1-21 (April 14 = Passover, one day).
Leviticus 23:5-6 - The Day of Passover was always one day!
Numbers 28:16-17 and Deuteronomy 16:3 (April
15-21 were the seven days of unleavened bread, which followed Passover).
Joshua 4:19 and 5:10-11 - The Days Of
Unleavened Bread always followed Passover.
Acts 12:3-4, “And because he saw it pleased
the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of
unleavened bread.) And when he had apprehended him, he put him in
prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him;
intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.” Since
verse three says it was the Days of Unleavened Bread, verse four couldn't be
Passover, so “Easter” is correct in the King James Bible. The Alexandrian
texts all say “Passover,” which is heresy!
Ezra 6:19-22 (April 14 - Seven days of
unleavened bread) - The Jews did what God had told them to.
The Passover day is never part of the feast of
unleavened bread.
Easter is April 26-30 - Herod was waiting until
after Easter, not Passover. It couldn't be translated “Passover” because the
word “after” precedes it. Passover cannot come after the days of unleavened
bread (April 15:21). Herod worshipped Ishtar (Easter).
Acts 12:4 - The NIV and NKJV incorrectly
translate this word “Passover.”
MORE ALEXANDRIAN TRANSLATING ERRORS
Deuteronomy 8:3 - The word “word” is in italics
(i.e., added by the translators). Is it inspired? Jesus quotes “word” from
Deuteronomy 8:3 in Matthew 4:4, which is non-italicized. Jesus shows us how
right the translators were!
I Samuel 17:51 and II Samuel 21:19 - The NIV
says “Elhanan” slew Goliath, not David.
I Chronicles 20:5 and II Samuel 21:19 - The
added italics, “the brother of” are absolutely essential to the meaning. The
Alexandrian texts don't use any italics, so the passage is inaccurately
translated. Thank God for the perfect King James Bible!
*Kenneth Taylor developed throat cancer and
they had to cut his throat out. He was the so-called author of the Living
Bible. He told David Otis Fuller in private that he knew it was
God's judgment on him for tampering with His Word.
Our manmade courtrooms use court recorders to
type down every word. Why? Words are important to man! Don't tell me
God doesn't care about words.
I attended a King James Bible seminar
taught by Pastor Al Lacy (1933-2016) on July 27-31, 1992 at Hyles-Anderson College. It
was one of my most cherished and memorable memories. I was privileged to
meet Pastor Gayle Russ and his son from Evansville, Indiana, at the event.
What a blessing! I took diligent notes. I found my old notes while looking
through a box of old things this week. My heart leaped when I found the note
pad. So here are my notes from the King James Bible seminar. I pray they
will be as much a blessing to you as they still are to me.
