Hello People,
Its not really a prayer request, but i would like Christians both young and old to be careful with which bible version they are using. Some versions miss and change some words. If you need a trusted English version the Authorized King James Bible is the best. May the Holy Spirit guide, protect and give us wisdom in this issue so we may continue growing in faith in Christ Jesus. God bless you all.
Look at some of the issues in the NIV below:
