It is a fact that the bible has been tampered with?

Posted Wednesday, February 4, 2009 by admin


Historically, Jews and Christians alike have held that Moses was the author/compiler of the first five books of the OT. These books, known also as the Pentateuch (meaning five-volumed book), were referred to in Jewish tradition as the five fifths of the law (of Moses). The Bible itself suggests Mosaic authorship of Genesis, since Ac 15:1 refers to circumcision as the custom taught by Moses, an allusion of Ge 17. However, a certain amount of later editorial updating does appear to be indicated (see, e.g., notes on 14:14; 36:31; 47:11). (From the NIV Bible Commentary, page 2)

So in reality, the book of Genesis had been tampered with by man. It had been corrupted. It is dangerous to consider all of it as the True Living Words of GOD Almighty, because by doing so, we are running into the risk of committing a crime against Him since we are claiming that He spoke words that He never spoke.

Do we continue to believe even though we know that there are like 4 different versions

    Without the bible, there wouldn’t be Judaism, Christianity and Islam.

    You have been duped.

    Don’t forget that the Bible was originally written in Amharic and went through a lot of translations to become the English you and many here are reading. Things were certainly lost in translation.

    Four, try 444.

    Makes you wonder how there can be so many versions of the truth.

    Love and blessings Don

    no cuz GOD KNOWS WHAT HE is doing!
    different modern words just to help understanding…same message

  • stackoladan said on Feb 14th, 2009 at 1:35 PM:

    Sure there are minor differences, but the overall message is consistent. It is the big picture that is important here, not the minor details.

    Yes, Moses did write the Pentateuch, but under the ghost writing of the Holy Spirit.
    Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake [as they were] moved by the Holy Ghost. 2 Peter 1:20-21

    The same Holy Spirit that inspired it will continue to protect it. One need look no further than the Dead Sea Scrolls to see that the Book of Isaiah, almost intact, is almost verbatim with what we have today.

    Here’s the actual facts on the Bible. Firstly it was written about 400 years after the events unfolded. So it was passed from generation to the next by word of mouth. That leaves a lot of room for error. Secondly there are almost as many books hidden inside the Vatican as were originally published. So you have about 60% of the Bible scripture being public, the other 40% hidden to a very few eyes. And thirdly it was translated to English very poorly, things were taken literally that were analogies, facts were updated to modern times. There was a whole side of the Bible in the English version that never existed in the original texts.

    So yes the Bible that you now read is nothing like it’s original text.

    The modern translations, yes. I wouldn’t think them fit for use, no, not even in the privy. Especially the NIV.
    The older versions are much more accurate, and not much digging is needed into the original languages to clear some things up. But, going into the Hebrew and Greek is ALWAYS rewarding.
    It has NOT been corrupted, as has been the accusation, except for these modern versions which tend to leave words and even whole verses out.
    What the accusers REALLY want a person to believe is this: That an Almighty God was NOT capable of preserving His words for a mere few thousand years’ time.
    Believe it- they cannot know God…God IS Almighty, and is MORE than capable of preserving His words and their meanings for as long as He wants…

    Tampered with…well that’s a good start I guess. It was all written by man sweetheart. All of it. It was hard for me when I realized that. It’s hard for most people I think. But it’s the truth.
    Google: Council of Nicea.

    Peace and Good Food.

    Dear Duh,
    John 1:17 compares Moses’ law and JC’s grace as lie and truth; So you can count all of Gen,Ex,Lev, Dt, Num as a lie, especially if a little leaven leaveneth the whole. The law is what Paul flushed as dung, bcz it made him feel wretched; And notably to gain Christ: is the end of the law.

    Not to mention JC called it five in one house divided, and any kingdom divided against itself shall fall, to ruin. So JC also said your house is left, unto you desolate.

    Plural God in Genesis is divided, not united.
    God is not LORD in the Noah Story.
    it’s all allegory and mystery to solve.

    Grace — Mercy — Peace with you all. Amen.

    It is most certainly a fact. I was watching TV last night and a show came on stating…The real truth about Noah’s ark. I laughed and commented, Oh, really? My husband then commented, Yes, they have found Noah and he is going to personally narrate this show and tell us what happened. No, I don’t believe everything that is written in the Bible is exact and even still, some isn’t true.

    The Bible has gone through many translations but the truth is still there. You have to look for it as though it is a treasure. God will support and guide you if you sincerely want to find out. There is no way that man can change the Bible so much that God’s purpose is hidden from mankind. Most can not even interpret the Bible correctly let alone change it to mean something other than what it does. The main points are still there no matter what. The point being that Jehovah’s heavenly kingdom is the only hope for mankind. That Jehovah is making his name and purpose known throughout the world. Jehovah will vindicate himself by the means of the war of Armageddon. He has sent messengers to all parts of the world to let all know the requirements for surviving into the new earth. Whether people listen or not is their own choice. Just like in the days fo Noah. People are eating, drinking, marrying and they will take no notice until it is too late.

    No the bible has not been tampered with. English is not the text of the original language. English within itself has many dialects. While the earlier versions of the bible were all chock full of eloquent aged English,most of the commoners couldn’t understand it very well. The Americans don’t speak the queens English too well. American English language is very influenced by Irish and Scottish speakers. Gone is the old English accent and all the high dollar words of the Aristocracy of England, and today’s American English is a result of a melting pot of different society’s forming a new nation. It is fitting therefore that Americans have their own version of the bible and quit trying to understand the antiquated English of the 17th century. Today’s modern translations have not been tampered with. Instead they have been transformed into easily understood everyday language. Compare the recently found deep sea scrolls with that of the bible today. The scripural thought is there. What I like about it most is this new Living bible is really fabulous. I do not think the old fundies will like the new versions,because they cannot bend every word to suit what they think it means when in fact they are just as in the dark as their listeners.That’s my opinion.
