You Won't Believe What's in the Original King James Bible! #shorts

This is for my fellow brothers and sisters who are confused about the original 1611 King James Bible. The current KJV that people have is the 17th edition of the KJV since the year it was published in 1611.

I was 16, sitting alone in a cell on Christmas eve in 1999. I was consumed by rage and in a dark place, though the lights never turned off. We were visited by a Christian group bearing gifts, of which I was given two. The first was a beanie baby kangaroo, which I was not allowed to take back to my cell, but I got back upon my release and have to this day. The second was far more valuable. As I sat there, some tough kid with a plushie, I was given compassion and a message of God's love for us all. That night, I knelt over my block of a bed, and I prayed to God for forgiveness of my sins. It felt silly at first to think of myself doing this, but as I prayed aloud I felt this indescribable feeling. All the darkness within was gone, and I felt uplifted. I had given myself to God and accepted Jesus as savior in the wee hours of Christmas morning. I was forever changed before I stepped into 2000. All the blessings I have in my life, from that day to this and as many more as I may see, I owe to the glory of God, who has set a path for me and provides all that I need to walk it.

Any translation is useless without the true translator. The Spirit of Truth!

If you get confused just come to Jesus as your Lord and Saviour, come as you are, knock and it shall be opened unto you

Calm down everyone, reading the apocrypha won't make you the devil

Can’t wait to just be on the other side. Tired of the disputes I just want Truth.

1 Corinthians 2:2 “For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and Him crucified.”

Most people can't even follow the simple guidance:

Micah 6:8 KJV

"He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?"

[angelamarie]

I have a 1611. I am a Christian, awesomely saved by Jesus Christ and born again- Hallelujah. Praise God for His grace and for wildly saving people like me who had not been in His church, had not read His word, and had not sat and talked with His kids. How awesome He is. I recommend seeking out testimonies from those who were saved straight out of darkness like me- the good hand and power of God. There is revelation and clarity revealed in these testimonies and they will tell you about the workings of the devil's deceptions and about the religions, dividing the good truth from what is not. They will tell you things that those who grew up in even the christian church might not have had eyes for. Testimonies are always so awesome. See the things that God has done. : ) Bless the Lord who is good. Bless Jesus who is coming again - Hallelujah.

Let me tell you why the original 1611 KJV contained the Apocrypha:

The King James Bible was put out _(officially speaking)_ by the Anglican Church of England. It was translated by 54 Anglican scholars; half of which were Bishops, and half of which were Puritans. So what did the Church of England believe concerning the canon of inspired Scripture? Take a look at this paragraph in the sixth article of the Anglican _Thirty-Nine Articles of Religion:_

*VI. Of the Sufficiency of the Holy Scriptures for Salvation.*
"And the other Books (as Hierome saith) the Church doth read *_for example of life and instruction of manners; but yet doth it not apply them to establish any doctrine;_* such are these following:

The Third Book of Esdras The Fourth Book of Esdras The Book of Tobias The Book of Judith The rest of the Book of Esther The Book of Wisdom Jesus the Son of Sirach Baruch the Prophet The Song of the Three Children The Story of Susanna Of Bel and the Dragon The Prayer of Manasses The First Book of Maccabees The Second Book of Maccabees"

You can read the entire sixth article online if you want. But as you can see, the Church of England did NOT accept the Apocrypha as inspired Scripture. This is why the translators placed the Apocrypha _IN BETWEEN_ the Old and New Testaments. They did _not_ place the Apocryphal books in the Old Testament canon as the Catholic Church does. Therefore, the Apocrypha was never actually printed _IN_ the King James Bible, it was printed _WITH_ the King James Bible.

So in conclusion: the translators printed the Apocrpyah with the King James Bible simply because it has historical value and good wisdom in it. Nobody believed it was inspired Scripture.

But what really matters the most is... _what do the Scriptures say about the Apocrypha?_ Let me show you:

Luke 24:44 (KJV) And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the *_law of Moses, _* and in *_the prophets, _* and in *_the psalms, _* concerning me.

In this verse, Jesus Christ lays out the official canon of the Hebrew Bible the same exact way the Jews do:

_The Law of Moses = The Torah._

_The Prophets = The Nabhim._

_The Psalms = The Kethubim._

These three sections of the Hebrew Bible make up the entire 39 books of the Hebrew O.T. _(the Apocrypha is not included)._

It is also worth noting that the Apocryphal books were never quoted by Jesus Christ or the Apostles.

Also, the Septuagint, being a collection of corrupt Alexandrian manuscripts and the *_only_* manuscripts that the Apocryphal books are found in, is dated to be from around 350 A.D. at the very earliest, which is well after the entire New Testament was completed.

This proves that the Apocrypha is not inspired Scripture.

Originally, the Apocrypha was removed because it was never considered divinely inspired by GOD, therefore it was not accepted as part of the original canon of Holy Scripture.
It was included in that KJV, placed BETWEEN the OT and NT, STRICTLY BASED ON ITS HISTORICAL VALUE BY SOME.
HOWEVER, further study proves the Apocrypha not only contradicts the Bible, but even contradicts itself.
Other reasons it was rejected include: The books were not originally written in Hebrew as was the OT. None of the writers claimed "divine inspiration." They were never accepted by the early Jewish Church. Etc.
The Catholic Church is the only denomination that fully accepts it.
Calling the Apocrypha part of Scripture is like saying BECAUSE the INDEX is CONTAINED IN the Bible, it is divinely inspired by GOD.
In case you wonder, NO, IT IS NOT! And neither was the Apocrypha.
Be careful what you "believe" on YouTube. Most people do NOT take the time to research and confirm what they post.
I've been a Christian for 54 years, and have heard it all. The difference is, I DO THE RESEARCH from multiple sources and do CONSIDER THE SOURCE.
The things I've seen and read...😱

JESUS loves you. JESUS died for our sins. He wants to have a closer relationship with you. JESUS is coming soon. you can have a closer relationship with JESUS by becoming a born-again Christian and also by reading your Bible daily. Heaven and hell are real. Personal relationships with Jesus will help make heaven

What KJV 1611 translators wrote : "Apocrypha"
What the KJV critique read : "Deuterocanonical".

Jesus Christ has risen. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 } The Catholics do idolatry

[taylorjorgenson]

I went to Bible college and learned that it was in the original King James Bible, because it was required at the time. King James simply paid the translators. The translators wanted to honor him. King James was in love with only his wife. There was a man who worked with the translators early on and either left or was fired I don't remember. This man claimed in 1650 that King James was a homosexual. King James died in 1625.

Those who are caught up in legalism will not enter the pearly gates. It is only by grace you are saved.

The Lord our God can take any evil and turn it around for the good of His own and most of all, for the glory of Jesus Christ. That goes for flawed translations of His Word. He speaks His pure Word right into the hearts of His elect. Holy, Holy, Holy is the Most High. Hallelujah

Good information for anyone who doesn’t know this. Nothing wrong with this being presented to people for knowledge and reference.

[vincentpiater]

From what I recall Today we use the 1769 edition of the KJV. it’s mostly the spelling of the words that changed from the old English to the archaic. The same way the KJVs printed in the UK and USA are different to accommodate the different spelling of words.

[taylorv]

Exactly! And I'm not claiming that it is divinely inspired, but they are a great historical and great insight to what others who lived in that time experienced or the stories they knew. Pray for discernment.
