What The Bible Says

Good Samaritan's Penny Pulpit by Pastor Ed Rice

1John 5:7 has embroiled the last chapter of the Apostle John's epistle to “My little children” in controversy when it should be exalted as one of the greatest written conclusions in Holy Scripture. Any student of the Bible could see it as genuine. Any student of history could know that Roman Catholic Saint Origin of Alexandria Egypt, the Father of their allegorical method, and the Father of their Bible criticism, was diabolically driven to omit this verse and twenty other whole verses of Holy Scripture. Indeed any student of diabolical methods and Biblical criticism could see their despise of inspiration and preservation of Holy Scripture. But not every student does. If your Bible does not contain 1John 5:7 as accurately translated in the Authorized King James Bible, I'll encourage you to become a student of the Bible, of history, and of Satan's textual criticisms, and then promptly drop his work into a suitable trash receptacle. From a KJB examine the conclusion of such a precious epistle. (If you prefer a modernist, ecumenical, copyright bible, I encourage you to all the more take heed here.) Is your salvation genuine? (vr.1-5). Is your love real? (vr.1). Is your obedience real? (vr.2-3). Are you an overcommer? (vr.4-5). Second, do you understand the triune witness who established these truths? (vr.6-9 KJB only)(Any shmo can see the “and” in verse 6 connects to the authentic verse 7, and that connection is all the more pronounced in the Greek.) Thirdly understand the simplicity and certainty of conversion, the gospel, and the new birth (vr.10-13). Lastly, understand and use the confidence that we now have in Christ. The confidence we have in Christ (The Word) springs from the confidence we have in the Holy Bible (The Word). Don't allow some Bible critic to mess with your faith.
