Introduction
The first chart shows how the top bible translations translate key bible
passages. In Isaiah and Luke it should be translated "Virgin" anything else
shows and influence to deny the virgin birth of our Lord. In Daniel it should be
"the Messiah," although Messiah by its self is acceptable, anything else would
be denying Jesus is the Messiah. In Revelation it should be translated "are"
anything else shows a denial of a eternal hell. In Philippians it should be
translated ina way to show Jesus is God, not that He really was not.
The second chart shows study bibles. these can be any translation (KJV, NIV, etc). We will be looking at the study notes to see how accurate they are.
The third chart is a list of bibles produced by know cults. these bibles have
been deliberately changed to support false doctrine.
