Titus 1:9-13, “Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers. For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake. One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies. This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith.”
What does our text passage of Scripture mean by “specially they of the
circumcision?” It refers to those false prophets who add human effort (in this
case the act of bodily circumcision) to the Gospel for salvation. Acts
15:1, “And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and
said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be
saved.” The Bible teaches in Titus 1:13, as read above, that we have a
duty as born-again Christians to “REBUKE THEM SHARPLY, THAT THEY MAY BE SOUND
IN THE FAITH”!!!
There is an epidemic, an infectious spiritual disease, at work corrupting our churches today. This infectious disease are the new English language Bible versions (and there are hundreds of them). Satan was careful to cover his bases to deceive the churches. Along with the Luciferian occult Westcott and Hort Greek text of 1881, there were also a handful of Luciferian scholars; such as, James Strong, William E. Vine, Thayer, Scott and others who supported the new corrupt versions in the late 19th century.
There's a big 700-member backslidden Independent Baptist church down the street from me, which the Lord has used to open my eyes to the utter apostasy in today's churches. They have about 6 pastors, one being the senior pastor. I attended there for 11 months. The pastors eventually told me to SHUT UP about the King James Bible being the only good Bible today, and to stop exposing Lordship Salvation as being a false plan of salvation, so that was the end of the road. I feel like the prophet Ezekiel, whom the Spirit of the Lord carried in a vision from Babylon to Jerusalem, to show Ezekiel just how ungodly the temple priests (the pastors) had become. The priests were bowing down to worship the rising sun. They were caught up into a Luciferian form of worship. This is no different than today's pastors who use and promote multiple Bible versions, as if it really doesn't matter what God said in His inspired Word.
You must understand that making even subtle changes to a Biblical text changes it's meaning, and thus often forms an entirely different theological doctrine, from which everything that we believe and live is based. Consequently, the multiple Bible versions in today's apostate churches have confused all their congregations, misleading them.
Secular intellectual historian, English teacher and expert in 19th century psychology, Dr. Christopher Lane, Ph.D., in his article titled, “FAITH ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE(S),” proclaims what many Christians still refuse to admit, that is, “that even minor changes in translation have dramatic implications for the way people view and understand their faith.” ...
"Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." So runs the celebrated line in Hebrews 11:1, the rationale that underpins so much of the Judeo-Christian tradition. According to that rationale, as the writer of the Epistle puts it, faith is a summation of hope and evidence apparently lies in "things not seen"—in the invisible and ineffable.
Considering the importance of the line in Hebrews as an anchor to Judeo-Christian belief and faith, it's worth noting—as websites detailing various editions of the Bible underscore—that even minor changes in translation have dramatic implications for the way people view and understand their faith."

Many neo-evangelical independent Baptist pastors have blood on their hands. They've been warned, told the truth about Satan's modern Bible revisions. Any of the modern Bible revisions that were translated from the Alexandrian texts are of the Devil. This includes all of the Brooke Westcott and Fenton Hort based translations. This includes 99% of today's Bible versions. ONLY THE KING JAMES MIND IS RELIABLE!!! I have warned umpteen pastors... Baptists, Lutherans, non-denominational pastors, but they couldn't have cared less. Satan has blinded them!!!
Heresy is creeping into our fundamental churches by the hour!!!
