What is Missing in the 21 modern Bible Translations below?

Compare them all the King James Version, and ask yourself the question:

• If I were the Devil, what key parts of God’s Unchangeable
  Everlasting Word would I change?

In other words: What attack on God’s Word would do the most Harm?

 

Can You See the Attack?

 

Take a look and see what the enemy has clearly done (and how God has protected his servants from the Enemy’s Attack):

King James Bible: Luke 4:4

And Jesus answered him, saying,
It is written:

That man shall not live bybread alone,
But by every word of God.

Now it just so happens that the KJV agrees with itself: See

Matthew 4:4 (KJV)

But he answered and said, It is written,
Man shall not live by bread alone,

But by every word
That proceedeth out of the mouth of God

Below in 22 Bible Versions you will clearly see that the meaning, strength, and purpose of the text has been stripped from Luke 4:4.

In other words: men and woman of God, daily need to feed on the Word of God, even as they need they own daily bread for survival: spiritually and physically. 

Jesus used the enemy attack not only to crush the Head of the Serpent, but also to show Christ’s Disciples what they need to crush the Enemy. They need Word of God, every word of it!

In this Way Jesus exhorts everyone of his followers to feast on the Word of God every day. And he exhorts us to Know Every Word!

His Words are Everlasting Words. They will never pass away. Even though the Heavens and the Earth will pass away (in their current form) Jesus Words will never pass away.

To be clear: this attack on God’s word is literally an attack on God’s word.

 

Context and Background: On Luke 4:4, from Matthew 4:4. 

As of yet, Jesus has not yet begun his public ministry: Although JESUS, had just been baptized by John in the Jordan River, and John testified that He saw the Holy Spirit of God descend upon Jesus in bodily form, and he heard the Words: This is my son in whom I am well pleased. (Matthew 3:13–17)

Next, Jesus has just spent 40 days and 40 nights, praying and fasting and preparing himself body, mind, and spirit for an all out assault, a.k.a. enemy attack from none other than Satan himself.

 

On the day, Jesus felt his weakest. The enemy, saw his opportunity. He pounced on Jesus, like a lion ready to devour his prey. But instead of winning the battle, Satan was cut into by the word of God. Satan attempted to use Jesus’ weakness, to get in between Jesus and his Father.

Satan has learned from past experience, that he can never win by directly attacking God. But he has learned how to be successful in attacking God’s creation, and thus doing great harm to God’s kingdom for a season. But Jesus gave him no satisfaction.

Instead, Jesus simply furthered the work of God by showing us how we are called to defeat, Satan, just as Jesus did.

But what would happen if someone simply removed the important, teaching and training part of Luke 4:4?

Then we would have the spiritually rich, philosophically deep, and intellectually stimulating truth that : ‘No one can live only on food.’ Of course, the devil would tremble in his boots, and run for the hills, if we quoted this verse,. It may just absolutely devastate him: Knowing what we know that we need more than food only.

Instead of knowing precisely how to slay a dragon, and cut through his demonic lies, we are expected to learn that we need more than just bread to live. Seriously? That’s what Jesus had spent the last 40 days fasting to teach us? I don’t think so. And apparently Matthew didn’t think so either.

In both Matthew and Luke, Jesus tells us that we are not to live by bread alone, but by every word of God, in the KJV.

THAT BRINGS UP THE PROBLEM WITH THE WEST COTTON HORT MANUSCRIPT THAT DOES NOT EVEN AGREE WITH ITSELF. LET HER ALONE AGREE WITH THREE RELIABLE KING JAMES, VERSION, MANUSCRIPTS KNOWN AS THE..

[The complexity and subtlety of the translation problem reads like a modern day spy novel. Apparently, the Truth really is stranger than fiction. To truly understand what is happening in the English translation problem, one must truly go a few levels deeper in investigation, understanding,  and the counterfeit fraudulent system used to promote a compromised translation of the Bible. One must find out who Count Tischendorf is, and who Westcott and Hart are, and how much money is involved in Bible translation industry–and the work of the corrupt Catholic Church, that has historically tried to block the people from hearing, reading, knowing the word of God, and their own language, for the 16 centuries. But that is too big of a topic to handle here.]
