Dirty NIV

NOTEs NIV weaknesses

Some Missing NIV Verses:

Matthew 12:47; Matthew 17:21; Matthew 18:11; Matthew 21:44; Matthew 23:14; Mark 7:16; Mark 9:44; Mark 9:46; Mark 11:26; Mark 15:28; Mark 16:9-20 (all 12 verses); Luke 17:36; Luke 22:44; Luke 22:43; Luke 23:17; John 5:4; John 7:53-8:11 (all 12 verses); Acts 8:37; Acts 15:34; Acts 24:7; Acts 28:29; Romans 16:24;*** 1 John 5:7
You can see these verses are subtracted inorder to justify certain teachings! WOE Not to mention the use moringstar instead of the name lucifer in one place even though lucifer means morning star The Word says Christ is THE Morning star!

NIV was originally published in the 1970'2 and most recently updated in 2011 (currently it is early 2012). This is a new age translation compared to the KJV. One of the publishers of the NIV (harper collins) is also the publisher of "the joy of gay sex" and " the satanic bible".
The NIV has no gendar lines which draws in to question agendas on gendar roles.
Renders:
"brother"- "brothers and sisters"
("man"- human beings)
Those uses of the terms can be seen as legit within contexts however,
*The term "sodomite" can't be found. (Deut. 23:17, I Kings 14:24, 15:12, 22:46, II Kings 23:7.)
*Dr. Virginia Mollenkott is a homosexual on the translation committee.
Why does NIV insist on using nice language in the context of sin?
Lev.18:22
NIV- Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable
KJV- Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

1 Cor.6:9-11
KJV- Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate (homosexuals), nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

NIV (1984)- Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders ¹⁰ nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. ¹¹ And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

(I do suggest the KJV when it comes to the English yet even the original KJV (1600) had a preface (intro) in which the translaters said they did the best they could and encouraged you to study for yourself (relating back to manuscripts/ original languages). Even the KJV has mistranslations, but it is easy to take it back with a strongs for those not fulent in Hebrew, Syraic, and Greek. Just wanted to share some points about NIV for anyone interested. I can't suggest a new age translation with agendas and still in the process of edits.

Keep in mind in order to create a "new" versions one has to make so many changes in order to do so. So the publishers are even encouraged to find new ways to communicate the message (very dangerous in my book)
