That is not a contradiction. Verse 10 has "good news... which will be for all the people". Verse 14 has, "peace among people with whom He is pleased". Those are two different things for two different groups of people.
You do realize that the angels were quoting Isaiah and the peace and good tidings IS THE NEW TESTAMENT don't you?

Isa 52:7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!

I'm not going to entertain your off-topic lobbying.

Nor am I going to play your leading-question games.
I don't play games Dino, from your response I can only assume that you don't think the verses are related. You don't have to answer if you don't want to, but I'm not playing games, I'm trying to engage in a serious debate over a serious heresy.

Sounds like your responses in the replacement theology thread. Amazing you judge others of doing the very thing you do

If popularity is the criterion for the choice of a bible translation, then we know that the end is upon us. The NIV is THE MOST CORRUPT English language translation.
The NIV has been instrumental in bringing people to Christianity and enhancing the spiritual growth of Christians.
Giving a KJV to youths and people for whom English is not their primary language would definitely be a potential impediment to their conversion to Christian.

Yeah same response because when some people can't or won't answer questions, the debate turns into "I'm not playing your games".

Do you guys think the NASB error in Matthew was in the original manuscripts?

Spoken by the one who for weeks would not answer by questions

is there any reason to answer your question? I mean really? in this matter? How long have you been here? I think everyone knows your tactic by now, If you are backed to a wall, you attack and still refuse. If you ask a LEADING question and everyone knows if they answer you are going to attack then can you blame them for not answering?

Isaiah was written to Israel, but you think Israel is us. So if we answer physical Israel, you will come at us, and we are not going to lie and say it was written to spiritual Israel, so we are left with an issue, the issue is based on a different belief system

there is no contradiction, Jesus was sent first to Israel as its messiah, and then as he himself said, his message would go first to Israel then sameria and then to the world

Do you think when Ezekiel says on the day I remove you sin you will rebuild your city and stop your sin and the world will know that I am God will happen as prophesied,

or do you continue to believe although the cross happened 2000 years ago, (after the day) no rebuilding has been done yet we are waiting on new jerusalem of the heaven above?

Yes, and I am glad you agree: there is no evidence of the verse prior to the sixth century AD :)
I dont agree with you, the KJV is Gods words in the English language

The new bible versions follow the Greek Text of Adulterer Kurt Aland, its these books that are counterfeit bibles

And King James was a bisexual and pervert. He also was so authoritarian, that when his son became king, he was killed by the people for abuse of power, and England became a Commonwealth under Cromwell! (Another big mistake.)

Fact is, we are all sinners saved by the grace of God. There is no perfect translator. There is no perfect or "inspired" translation into any language. Only the original autographs are perfect. There are almost 6000 extant Greek manuscripts of the NT. They have been grouped into families, compared for similarities and differences. There are rules governing the most accurate copies. But Byzantine, in which the TR and hence the KJV are based in, just magically arose in the 8th to 9th centuries AD. There is no connection to any of the other families of manuscripts. Because Greek was the language of the Byzantine Empire, they made it a point to make many copies of the Greek Byzantine manuscripts. But being so far from the original autographs, the scribes would add little notes in the margins of the manuscript to explain things. The next generation would add it to the text, thus all those added verses which were in none of the earliest manuscripts or families of manuscripts. Hence, the KJV is probably one of the most unreliable versions.

But if you can read it, and it speaks to your heart, that is a good version for you. But far from perfect or inspired. I have to wonder how these lies get started, sometimes!

What is the thread topic? "Favourite Bible Translations".

If you want "engage in a serious debate over a serious heresy" then start a new thread. That topic doesn't fit in this thread.

Any bible that contradict's it's self shouldn't be on the list of favorite translations.

The only contradiction is in your interpretation
