Affected Teaching

(Luke 4:39 KJV) And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and immediately she arose and ministered unto them. (Mark 1:31 KJV) And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them. Both times this event is written about state that when Peter’s mother in law was healed by Jesus that she had immediately began to minister to them, which means Jesus and all those who were with Him. Even the modern versions in the above two accounts state that she ministered to “them” and not just Jesus alone. This is just another mutilation in the modern versions because in the King James Bible, all three accounts are in harmony stating “them.” Only the modern versions damage the harmony by exchanging “them” for “him,” implying that there is disharmony in the Scriptures.
