1 John 5 David Clarke

1 John 5:7-8From reading the various translations of the English bible and by a comparison between four early translations of the bible such as the King James Version, 1611 King James Version, 1568 Bishops bible, and the Geneva bibles it becomes clear that modern rendering of 1 John 5:7-8 are not the same. They differ and do not say the same thing. And since it is important to have an accurate translation of the original text in order to establish Christian doctrine relating to God, and the persons in God, namely the trinity or persons in God. The father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. A correct translation of the New Testament is important in order to preserve and teach what the Apostles of Christ taught in respect to the being and purposes of God. It is important to preserve the truths taught in the bible and to pass these truths on to the next generation of believers. Moderns translations do not help in this objective. So this is the object of this publication to demonstrate modern versions are not good and are misleading.
