Since we are required to take ALL things to Him, taking our reading to Him for His confirmation of our understanding will bring His clarity.

Yes, though I suggest that we need to invite His correction to our understanding when needed. :)
 
If we are in Him, His guidance for correction is automatic from my experience, He never guides anyone to sin.:)(y)
I agree with the second part, but I strongly disagree with the first part. We can be blinded to our faults (both sins and flaws) by reason of trauma, poor teaching, or the influence of the enemy. We can be "in Him" and still be subject to all these things.

These passages may not be popular among Christians today, but they remain true nonetheless:

1 John 2:3-4

3 "And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.​
4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him."​


John 14:23

"Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words:​
and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him."​
In other words, these passages of Scripture, along with 1 John 5:12, paint a picture that many believers do not understand today.
However, I hope that believers here will ask God for help in understanding them.

In any event, I hope it helps, and may God bless everyone here.

When we are "in Him" we perceive and walk out His guidance and He never guyiudes us to give first place to our faults.
Jesus said He only did and said what He saw and heard the Father do, modeling for us how the Father wanted to do and say.

I have been reading John Eldredge’s book, “Walking With God”. He describes his own journey, noting how the Lord reveals things John needs to deal with despite being “in Him” for decades.

Of course! We were born in a sinful state.
Blackaby's "Experiencing God" is another that has been a great help.
It was used in a men's Bible study decades ago, and again a few years ago, it was in the 2nd one I noticed He had encountered me the same as written in nearly every page.

@Follower777

I appreciate the like you gave on my other post, but it was not true. I later found out that James White does not actually agree with the KJV reading in Luke 23:34, which says, “Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.” That was an incorrect statement on my part, caused by misinformation from ChatGPT that I didn’t double-check at the time. The verse James White agrees with is actually 1 Timothy 3:16, which reads, “God was manifest in the flesh.” You can see my updated post about it here.

@Oncefallen

Hello. Peace and loving kindness to you in Jesus' name.

I was just wondering if you can delete my post #150 in this thread.
It was misstep on my part in quoting AI the info in this post without confirming the sources it gave me.
So if you can delete my post #150 in this thread discussion, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you, and may God bless you.

I would like to do an update on that new side-by-side KJV vs. Modern Bible comparison PDF to include Hebrews 1:3, which is a textual difference. It removes the words "by himself" δι’ ἑαυτοῦ (di’ heautou) (δι’ = by) (ἑαυτοῦ = himself). This is the only place in the Bible that says that Jesus "by himself" purged us of our sins.

Hebrews 1:3 KJV:
"“Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high”

Modern Bibles do not have this.

Hebrews 1:3 ESV:
"He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After [omitted] making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,"

The complaint of a scribe, written in the margin of Codex Vaticanus at Hebrews 1:3 says:

αμαθεστατε και κακε, αφες τον παλαιον, μη μεταποιει (Fool and knave, can't you leave the old reading alone and not alter it!)

Again, I want to stress this is the only place in the Bible that teaches this truth or doctrine, making it unique or exclusive teaching to the TR (Textus Receptus) and the KJV.

Thanks for video. If you are interested. I added a new PDF to my site. It is a side by side comparison of the KJV vs. Modern Bibles. I point out how some are translation differences and others are textual differences. You can check out the new free PDF at www.affectionsabove.com.

May God bless you.

Thank you so very much for sharing your labor of love.
It's remarkable and look forward to reading your book as soon as I get Internet hook up for my CP next month. Right now I'm limited to the tiny print of my phone.

It is a very important doctrine since most every denomination and most pseudo-christian cults would agree with the ESV from the CV.
They would all teach that "After [omitted] making purification for sins, ...."
THEN they ADD whatever good works they hold to. Faith in Christ is not enough. They always must combine Jesus sacrifice with their own list of requirements of personal deeds . Ie. Matthew 7:21 KJV

Our Traditional King James translation makes this distinction with power and clarity. His atonement is the only propitiation for all sins.
Christ alone deserves ALL the glory!

Hebrews 1:3 KJV:
"“Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high”

My thinking was more that churches like the Catholic Church say Mary is a co-redeemer with Christ.

As for ”Works Salvationism”:

As you know, Catholics believe in "Works Alone Salvationism," and do not believe grace can save by faith ever.
As you know, they believe one is first saved by the work of water baptism (Which is false).
Anyway, Catholics (like Carol Maria Martini under the authority of the Vatican) had later helped to refine the Nestle and Aland Greek / UBS text that underlies the Modern Bibles. Did he make changes that favor the Catholic Church? Not that I have discovered yet, but I would like to do a study on that someday, when I have more time after finishing a few future projects. In short, that may be 2-5 years from now or longer. There are a lot of current projects I have for the Lord.

You're welcome. All glory be unto Christ. This is still just the doctrinal reasons. I still need to release my 177 Reasons for the KJB writeup (Which basically takes the doctrine from this larger writeup).
