Bible Discussion Thread

I'm doing research on Historical Bible mistakes and contradictions. The work is as expansive as hidden crimes come to life. For those who make up excuses for the current Bible errors, shame on you. These errors have already been corrected, and no thanks to the people who pleaded against the changes, saying God makes no mistakes. God is perfect, people are not.

in 1860, William Henry Burr produced a list of 144 self-contradictions in the Bible.

A 1716 edition of the 17th-century King James version (known as the Party Bible) replaces "Sin no more" from Jeremiah 31:34 with "Sin on more". There were 8,000 copies printed before anyone noticed.

"Let the children first be killed" is Mark 7:27 and it's supposed to be: "Let the children first be filled." A 1795 edition of the King James version.

"If the latter husband ate her" Known as the Cannibal's Bible, a 1682 printing alters this passage from Deuteronomy 24:3, which is meant to read: "If the latter husband hate her."

" I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved." Genesis 32:30

"No man hath seen God at any time" John 1:18

"The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father" Ezekiel 18:20

"I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation" Exodus 20:5

Exodus ch20 v5 , you ended that verse too soon cherry , you missed out " of them that hate me " tsk ,if you are going to try to discredit the Bible you need to make a proper effort please . No half measures on here , but we have all actually read the Bible so we have the advantage .

Cherry Here's some items non contradictory if the Bible is not true than around the world every year twice a year celebrate the birth death and resurrection of the Son of the Author of the Book. That many people by sheer logic and reasoning can't be wrong. Also just some stuff about creation, did you know that what a humming bird does in flight is aerodynamically impossible, did you know that on earth nothing is ever lost it just changes in structure organically, did you know that if the sun Got less than a football field closer to the earth we would be toast, did you know that a womens left lower arm bone is curved and stronger than a mans to carry children, did you know that way before columbus discovered the earth was round the Bible calls it a sphere. That's the tip of Gods words Iceberg so to speak. Just some stuff to think about. P.S. One other thing He created man because like any Father he wanted and needed to have something to love.

Cherry , if you are counting typos then we are all in big trouble ! Also , as the Bible was written down by many different scribes living at different times , I think it would be very suspicious if there wasn't an occasional inconsistency , if everything matched exactly it would look as if it was contrived , have you ever asked three or four people who work in the same office to give a detailed account of the same day. ? Have you read the four gospels ? The very distinct personalities come through very clearly , my guess is that you have not read any of the Bible but are quoting some one else ,please forgive me if I'm wrong , if you think you have shocked or upset any of us Christians on here I'm sorry to disappoint you , it has taken me 27 years of reading the Bible to get my faith where it is today ,you will have to do better , very much better than that if you want to even put a dent in it . Try reading the whole thing with an open mind and heart . If you need any help with that you can come on here and ask any of us any time and we will help you gladly , that's what Christians try to do .

Sacha Nice sharing and wonderful heart.

Wouldn't be incredible to have Gods word as it was given originally when Holy men of God spake, but I'm thankful for what the KJV translators accomplished by Gods Grace was a monumental task and I choose to believe they Got a vast majority correct. God covered it all as He always does. God Bless
