What's is your Bible translation, why?



Mark 1:1-2 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)      1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God; as it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

Take your copy, yes copy of the scripture and read those verses.  Most, not all but most read “Even as it is written in Isaiah the prophet”; American Standard, Amplified, English Standard, International Standard as well as most others.  Can you find in Isaiah where it reads of a messenger being sent before Messiah comes?  
Are there mistakes in God’s Word?  If there is one then is it God’s Word?  Why would one want to read and adhere to a book that has errors, even one error, scripture, or not?  
Back to the question;  where is it written that a messenger was to be sent?  “Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts.”  Malachi 3:1.  Is that not the verse that Mark references in his writing?  
True there are misprints and printing errors in the “COPIES” we have today, but there should never be error in the Spirit of the Word passed down to us.  
Quit those so-called Bible translations that are many in number and platitudes; “Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.  For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.  Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.”  Hebrews 4:11-13.  Supporting scripture of how satan will and does work in the world,  2 Corinthians 4:1-4.

Death! from who's perspective?

Genesis 2:17  Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)   " But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. Genesis 3:4  Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)   " And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: " God saith one thing in verse 2:17 and Satan appears to oppose what God has said in 3:4; is there another alternative?   What saith the scripture?   This is where "rightly dividing the word of truth" 2 Timothy 2:15c comes into play.   This is not a new concept, or a apostle Paul's understanding but has been through out time.   Isaiah wrote "For precept  must be  upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little,  and  there a little:"   Isaiah 28:10.   God could have given man a more pre or less clandestine verbiage but did as is.   We are to   " Stud...

His righteousness as to ours!

2 Corinthians 5:21 [Authorized King James Version]:   For he hath made him  to be  sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. " Sometime back, many years ago, had a T-shirt that read:   "The righteousness His righteousness requires is the righteousness His righteousness requires Him to require".   That's a mouthful but after reading a few times it starts to make sense when viewed with spiritual eyes in light of scripture. Man in all his pomp and ceremony, all his books and intellectual assent only shows complete ignorance and foolishness.     " The words of a wise man’s mouth  are  gracious; but the lips of a fool will swallow up himself.   The beginning of the words of his mouth  is  foolishness: and the end of his talk  is  mischievous madness.   A fool also is full of words: a man cannot tell what shall be; and what shall be after him, who can tell h...

When did the "Church" begin for us today ? ? ?

1 Timothy 1:15-16  (King James Version 1611):  " This is  a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief (first, beginning Strong's Concordance # 4413).  Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him for life everlasting. The "Church" didn't start with Peter and his presentation of Acts 2:38.  The "Church" started when Paul was on the Damascus Road.  Then it took numerous years in the desert for Paul to come to the understanding of "Faith plus nothing" (Les Feldick).  We are saved by grace through faith, who's faith (Romans 1:17)? "For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,  If you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward: How that by revelation (Galatians 1:11-12) he ma...
