Dear brothers and sisters , There is a violent debate amongst Christians regarding which
Bible to use , we would think all the Bibles are the same since they
claim each one is by God .
Here we will compare the Bibles the Christians _argue_ about
between themselves so we can see what all the rage in the midst of
Christians is all about .
We will take the most popular Bibles , the King James Version (K.J.V.),
the Revised Standard Version (R.S.V.) , the New International
Version (N.I.V.) , the Good News Bible (G.N.B.), and the Living
Bible Version (L.B.V.) and contrast verses within these Bibles .

This is excluding the deadly argument
between the Catholics and Protestants who have Bibles
that differ even more;
The Catholics have 7 additional Chapters/books called "Deutrocanonicals"
their names are; (Tobit, Judith, Esther, The Wisdom of Solomon,
Baruch, 1st. Maccabees, and 2nd. Maccabees) a total of 73 Chapters/books within the Catholic Bible
The Protestants in the year 1611 AD , removed the
Deutrocanonicals from the Bible
66 Chapters/books within the Protestant Bible .
If the Christians had obeyed the Bible from the start , than all
the Christians persecuting Christians would not have occurred and
will stop occurring .
" What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt
not add thereto, nor diminish from it."Deuteronomy 12:32
" Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be
found a liar."Proverbs 30:6
"For I testify unto every man that hearth the words of the
prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God
shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:"Revelation 22:18
"And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of
this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life,
and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in
this book."Revelation 22:19
By the Grace of Allah (God in the
Arabic Language) , the Holy Qur'an , the Third and Final Warning to
humans , has been protected by Allah from change for over 1,400
hundred years .
Every letter is identical to the Original Qur'an sent by God ,
humans have failed in preserving the Enlightenment given to them ,
so as a Favor to us from Allah , the Qur'an is preserved for us as
can be Witnessed by visiting the Islamic Museum in Cairo Egypt where
a original Qur'an is available to see.
This message is not one of arguing or debating with the
Christians, it is a message to bring peace, all humans are created
from one, so shall we return to One Creator .
Salaam (Peace in Arabic)
