50 Biblical Teachings and Doctrines Affected in the Christian Standard Bible
Plus a Direct Connection to Roman Catholicism in the CSB!
 
By Dr. Ken Matto
 
Unless otherwise noted all verses are taken from the King James Bible.
 
The Christian Standard Bible (CSB) burst on to the scene in 2017 as if it was the greatest translation in history.  It is nothing more than a revision of the Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB).  It is another corrupt version and offers nothing but the same corruptions as the other counterfeit versions.  As usual it is endorsed by two popular radio personalities, Allistair Begg and Tony Evans.  Here is the theological expertise of Tony Evans:
 
Tony Evans is Priscilla Shirer’s father. Evans’ heresies include Pelagianism (the denial of original sin), Inclusivism (you don’t have to be a Christian to be saved), and Limited Theism (the denial of God’s omnipotence).
 
That is the type of person who endorses this counterfeit, a complete heretic!  One of the questions asked of them on their website is why some verses are missing in their version?  Here is the response from their website:
 
“Bible translators have access to more scholarship about the ancient manuscripts than was available at the time of older English translations (for example, the King James Version, published in 1611). The CSB (like NIV, ESV, NLT, and others) draws on the best manuscripts available as recognized by top biblical scholars. At points these older (closest-to-the-original) manuscripts do not include some phrases that were translated in earlier English translations.”
 
What I would like to ask these professional liars is which one of their translators saw the original manuscripts to make the statement that their version compares to it?  Since it is a revision of the 2004 Holman Christian Standard Bible, the manuscripts which underlies the HCSB are the same ones which underlie the CSB.  They are the Novum Testamentum Graece 27th edition for the New Testament and for the Old Testament the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia with some Septuagint influence.  Just so you know a major fact, the CSB is under the authority of the Vatican as is the HCSB.
 
“The text shared by these two editions was adopted internationally by Bible Societies, and following an agreement between the Vatican and the United Bible Societies it has served as the basis for new translations and for revisions made under their supervision. (Emphasis mine) This marks a significant step with regard to interconfessional relationships. It should naturally be understood that this text is a working text (in the sense of the century long Nestle Tradition): it is not to be considered as definitive, but as a stimulus to further efforts toward defining and verifying the text of the New Testament. For many reasons, however, the present edition has not been deemed an appropriate occasion for introducing textual changes.” – Page 45, 3rd paragraph.  It is speaking about the Nestle-Aland 27th Edition and the United Bible Societies 4th Edition of the New Testament Greek.  Quite frankly, I would not want to use a version which is under the authority of the Vatican.  Let us now attend to this counterfeit edition and see what they have left out.
 
(1) Doctrine of the Bible – Numbers – 1 Samuel 6:19
(KJB) And he smote the men of Beth-shemesh, because they had looked into the ark of the LORD, even he smote of the people fifty thousand and threescore and ten men: and the people lamented, because the LORD had smitten many of the people with a great slaughter.
 
(CSB) God struck down the people of Beth-shemesh because they looked inside the ark of the Lord. He struck down seventy persons. The people mourned because the Lord struck them with a great slaughter.
 
The text states “shivim ish chamishim eleph ish” which translates literally “seventy men fifty thousand men.”  The CSB reduces the severity of looking into the Ark by omitting the fact that in addition to the seventy which perished, another fifty thousand perished.  Remember how God struck Uzzah when he steadied the Ark?  Remember when the Philistines took the Ark and placed it next to Dagon?  Dagon kept falling to the floor.  The Ark was a very holy symbol and was not to be touched by anyone.  Here God shows the severe penalty for men attempting to violate His holiness.  So the 50,000 number is definitely in the text but is omitted in the CSB.

When we look further into this verse we find corroborating evidence in the King James Bible itself.  The ESV proponents tell us that the town of Beth-shemesh was not big enough to validate the 50,070 number.  Well, let us once again show how the King James Bible is its own interpreter.  Check out the following verses:
 
And Ain with her suburbs, and Juttah with her suburbs, and Beth-shemesh with her suburbs; nine cities out of those two tribes. (Joshua 21:16)
 
And Ashan with her suburbs, and Beth-shemesh with her suburbs: (1 Chronicles 6:59)
 
In both these verses, we see that Beth-shemesh was not a singular city but had suburbs which made them part of the city itself.   There are many cities around the world which have a business district and many suburbs making them part of the city itself.  So it would definitely not be out of the question that Beth-shemesh would have been set up the same way, a business district and outlying communities.  Take New York City for example.  The borough of Manhattan is where the main business district is, as you can easily see by the amount of skyscrapers.  There are also four outlying boroughs: The Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, and Staten Island.  When you combine all 5 of them you have a population of 10 million.
 
(2) Doctrine of the Bible – Accuracy – 2 Samuel 21:19
(KJB)   And there was again a battle in Gob with the Philistines, where Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim, a Beth-lehemite, slew the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
 
(CSB) Once again there was a battle with the Philistines at Gob, and Elhanan son of Jaare-oregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath of Gath. The shaft of his spear was like a weaver’s beam.
 
This is one of those modern version quagmires which needs very little commentary. The question arises, WHO KILLED GOLIATH? And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth. (1 Samuel 17:49) David was the one who killed Goliath as the Scriptures so plainly teach but as we see in the CSB, they say that Elhanan killed Goliath. How do they arrive at that? In the King James Bible we see the words “the brother of” in italics which gives clear meaning to the verse and causes no confusion but continuity of the Scriptures concerning the death of Goliath‘s brother. The CSB editors did not believe it was necessary to keep these words to allay any confusion. Instead of including them, they omitted them and have caused confusion in the biblical narrative about Goliath and his brother. Now here is an interesting addition to the confusion that anyone who uses a CSB will encounter. The parallel verse to 2 Samuel 21:19 is 1 Chronicles 20:5 which reads:
 
1 Chronicles 20:5
(KJB) And there was war again with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, whose spear staff was like a weaver's beam.
 
(CSB) Once again there was a battle with the Philistines, and Elhanan son of Jair killed Lahmi the brother of Goliath of Gath. The shaft of his spear was like a weaver’s beam.
 
Notice in both the KJB and the CSB in 1 Chronicles 20:5, they state that Elhanan slew the brother of Goliath not Goliath.  The CSB is another counterfeit version which engenders confusion.
 
(3) Doctrine of Christ and Satan – Isaiah 14:12
(KJB)   How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
 
(CSB) Shining morning star, how you have fallen from the heavens! You destroyer of nations, you have been cut down to the ground.
 
The words for “O Lucifer, son of the morning” in Isaiah 14:12 is “helel, ben shachar.” The CSB substitutes the name “morning star” for “Lucifer” and this is not what the Hebrew is teaching. In the Hebrew, the word “kokhav” is the word God uses for star 36 times. The word does not appear in Isaiah 14:12, therefore it has been interpolated. In Job 38:7, we read, “When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?” The words “morning stars” are the words “kokhve voqer.” Neither of these Hebrew words shows up in Isaiah 14:12. In Job 38:7, we know that this verse is speaking of the physical stars in the universe because it is being used in the plural.
 
Now when we look at the way the CSB portrays Satan in this verse, we see them using the term “Morning Star.” Now we get into the outright arena of blasphemy. This term is attributed to the Lord Jesus Christ but the CSB gives the name to Satan. In his early days, Brooke F. Westcott, took on the study of Mormonism and he studied the book of Mormon. The reason I bring this to light is because in Mormon belief, Jesus and Satan were brothers. Both presented their salvation plans to God the Father and God chose the one presented by Jesus. Keep in mind that the influence of Hort and Westcott is still very heavy upon modern theologians and bible translators. So it would follow that if Westcott believed Mormonism, then some of that belief would have trickled down through the false seminaries and into the belief systems of translators.
 
Look at the following verse from Revelation:
 
I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. (Revelation 22:16)
 
Based upon this one verse, we see that the Lord Jesus is given the title of the morning star. Satan is not given this title in Scripture at all. It is applied to Satan by unbelieving theologians.
 
Look at the following verse in 2 Peter:
 
We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: (2 Peter 1:19)
 
Here is another allusion to the person of the Lord Jesus Christ. He is called the “day star” in this verse. The verse speaks of light shining in a dark place. Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. (John 8:12)
 
And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. {28} And I will give him the morning star. (Revelation 2:27-28)
 
Here is a salvation verse that those who are the Elect of God will receive the “morning star” who is the Lord Jesus Christ. And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. (John 10:28)
 
I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth. (Numbers 24:17)
 
Who is the star that came out of Jacob? That star is the Lord Jesus Christ who came from the lineage of Jacob through the nation of Israel. The star is not Satan.
 
The CSB and its translators prove that they are wrong when it comes to the reality of Scripture. To give the same name to both the Lord Jesus Christ and to Satan shows that the modern translators lack the necessary knowledge to be translators and they have shown the height of blasphemy. In Revelation 22:16 where it plainly says that Jesus is the morning star, the name Jesus could be replaced by the name Satan and this could be corroborated by the evil mistranslation of Isaiah 14:12 in the modern versions. I wonder if they will do that when the next “accurate” version is thrown on to the market and endorsed by theologians. Once again the King James Bible has shown itself to be the superior work of godly men by giving us the proper translations of words. Just seeing how the CSB highly esteems Satan, this alone would cause me to run from them. Don’t give up your King James for you hold in your hand the only true Word of God.
 
(4) Doctrine of Christ - Daniel 3:25
(KJB)   He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.
 
(CSB) He exclaimed, “Look! I see four men, not tied, walking around in the fire unharmed; and the fourth looks like a son of the gods.”
 
Some of the modern versions have translated the words behind “Son of God” as follows and we wonder why Christians are so confused or why there can never be agreement in any single congregation.  Here are five different renditions of the same words from 25 Bible translations.

“son of the gods”

“one of the gods”
“a god”
“an angel”
“a divine being”

Another criticism that the modern version only proponents (MVOP) level against the King James Bible is found in Daniel 3:25. The question concerning this verse is should it be singular as “God” or should it be plural as “gods?” The MVOP claim that Nebuchadnezzar was a polytheist and there is no way that he would have understood that the Lord Jesus Christ was the one in the fire with Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Now a question must be asked. Did God write the Bible according to the belief systems of the people mentioned therein or did He write the Bible according to His own wisdom? Once we get into the text, we will see that the King James Bible has rendered the word properly as “God” and not “gods” as the modern versions do.

The Aramaic words found in the statement are as follows, "da^mēh lebar 'ĕla^hı^yn" (Son of God).  The last word corresponds to the word "elohim" in the Hebrew which shows the plurality of God. In other words, it does not signify 3 gods but is used to show "three distinct persons" as one Godhead. Now the Aramaic word "elahiyn" may be translated "gods or God" and the usage is determined by the context.

Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens. (Jeremiah 10:11)

But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up. (Daniel 3:18)

Let the work of this house of God alone; let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build this house of God in his place. (Ezra 6:7)

Jeremiah 10:11 is the only place outside of Daniel where the word “elahiyn” is translated “gods.” In the book of Ezra, it is translated “God” 43 times. So we see that the word is definitely used according to context as many words in Scripture are.

When we look at the CSB that says "son of the gods" it is basically claiming son (singular) but gods (plural) so which son of which god in the pantheon of gods of Babylon was he? The plural word "gods" does not fit the context of the immediate statement that it is in. It is like 5 men standing next to each other and a little boy is brought out and introduced as a son of the men. It does not make grammatical sense because the boy can only be the son of one of the men. Now let us go further in the context.

Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace, and spake, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth, and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, came forth of the midst of the fire. (Daniel 3:26)


Notice verse 26 that Nebuchadnezzar came by the furnace and spoke into the furnace calling the three men servants of the Most High God, not gods. So the context of verse 25 would demand that the word "God" be used to make proper sense out of the narrative. Let us look at a verse which precedes the actual furnace scene.


If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. (Daniel 3:17)

Notice the three Hebrew boys state that the God they serve can deliver them. So they told Nebuchadnezzar about the God they serve, which is in keeping with the context of the following verses of the furnace scene. There would have been no need on Nebuchadnezzar's part to change it to a plural "gods" since he was seeing a miracle and would have remembered they spoke of them serving only one God and not many. Now finally we look at two more verses in this chapter.

{28}Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God. {29} Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort. (Daniel 3:28-29)

Four times in the closing verses of this chapter Nebuchadnezzar mentions God (same word as in verse 25) and in all four mentions, not one is made in the plural. Therefore, in verse 25, the word "God" stands as the correct rendering which fits the context of the entire narrative in this chapter.

Then the Modern Version Only People level another charge concerning the word “son.” If you notice in verse 25, it is capitalized as “Son.” When the King James translators saw this verse and knew that the word “elahiyn” would be singular in this case because of context and not plural, then they knew that this was a Christophany which was a pre-Bethlehem appearance of Christ. Therefore, armed with that knowledge, they capitalized Son in respect to the Lord Jesus Christ.

I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. (Psalm 2:7)

Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him. (Psalm 2:12)

If you notice in Psalm 2, in verses 7 and 12, the word “Son” is capitalized because it is directly referencing the Lord Jesus Christ. I have yet to this day come across anyone who rejects the capitalization of those two words, yet the MVOP attempt to make a claim that it should not be capitalized in Daniel 3:25, when it is also referencing the Lord Jesus Christ.  So there you have it, more confusion untangled by the King James Bible.
 
(5) Doctrine of Christ – Haggai 2:7
(KJB)   And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts.
 
(CSB) ill shake all the nations so that the treasures of all the nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory,” says the Lord of Armies.
 
The Hebrew word “chemdath” is used for the word “desire” in the Masoretic Text. It means “something desirable or something valuable.” It is a singular noun.

Septuagint Reading
The CSB, instead of properly interpreting the word “chemdath” instead followed the Septuagint reading and turned a singular word into a plural word with the wrong definition. (Haggai 2:7-8 Septuagint) For thus saith the Lord Almighty; Yet once I will shake the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land; and I will shake all nations, and the choice portions of all the nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the Lord Almighty.

The singular word “chemdath” is a singular word and it is a prophecy of the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. The word is used 16 times in the Old Testament and never once translated plural or as the CSB has translated it, rather interpreted it, as material goods or precious items.  What is valuable in the eyes of the world? Is it the Lord Jesus Christ? No, it is riches and material goods which the CSB has focused on. It is also a very subtle way to once again remove another reference to the Lord Jesus Christ. 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) The “desire of all nations” is a continued fulfillment of God’s promise to Abraham. And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: {3} And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. (Genesis 12:2-3) The CSB focuses only on worldly things and removes the true focus on the Lord Jesus Christ.
 
(6) Doctrine of Christ – Virgin Birth – Matthew 1:25; Luke 2:33
(KJB) And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS. (Matthew 1:25)
 
(KJB) And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him.  (Luke 2:33)
 
(CSB) but did not have sexual relations with her until she gave birth to a son. And he named him Jesus. (Matthew 1:25
 
(CSB) His father and mother were amazed at what was being said about him. (Luke 2:33)
 
In Matthew 1:25 a very important word missing in the CSB and that is “firstborn.”  Jesus was the firstborn son of Mary which means that he was born of the virgin.  Mary had other sons and daughters who were of Joseph.  Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him.  (Mark 6:3)  The CSB omits firstborn and replaces it with “a” which means it could have been any of the other sons.  The word “firstborn” is a specific word pointing to the fact that Jesus was the only one who was born of Mary while she was a virgin.  The others were born the natural way.
 
In Luke 2:33 we see an appalling replacement.  In the KJB we read the name “Joseph” as he was associated with Mary but in the CSB it is replaced with “father” making Joseph the biological father of Jesus which means that Jesus had the sin nature passed down to him through Joseph.  If Jesus had the sin nature then he was disqualified for being the Saviour because he was as sinful as the rest of us.
 
(7) Doctrine of Christian Living – Uncaused Anger - Matthew 5:22
(KJB)   But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
 
(CSB) But I tell you, everyone who is angry with his brother or sister will be subject to judgment. Whoever insults his brother or sister, will be subject to the court. Whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be subject to hellfire.

Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: (Ephesians 4:26) Ephesians 4:26 teaches us to be angry but to sin not. According to the CSB if we are angry, then we are in sin and heading for hell. So according to the CSB how do you homogenize oil and water. Here we have another dilemma. The CSB tells us that if I am angry with my brother, then I am in danger of heading for hell which leaves no place for the eternal security of the believer, thus exalting works. In fact the NIV, NCV, HCSB tells us that we will be subject to Judgment. Now we have an additional dilemma because in Matthew 23, the Lord Jesus Christ really let go on the Pharisees. Now according to the modern versions, Jesus has sinned. If He sinned, then His sacrifice to pay for our sins has been made null and void and therefore we are still in our sins without any possibility of salvation. Let us look at the contradictory nature of the CSB:
 
Be angry and do not sin. Don’t let the sun go down on your anger, (Ephesians 4:26 CSB)
 
But I tell you, everyone who is angry with his brother or sister will be subject to judgment. Whoever insults his brother or sister, will be subject to the court. Whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be subject to hellfire.  (Matthew 5:22 CSB)
 
How contradictory the CSB is. Either I am to abstain from being angry or I am to control my anger and properly channel it. Which is it? According to the CSB there is no definite answer because all the modern versions void themselves of absolutes in many areas.
 
When we look at Matthew 5:22 in the King James we are told that we are not to have anger against a brother “without a cause.” Christians are permitted to be angry but that anger must never become rank hatred. If I am counseling a Christian who has been delivered from alcohol and then I find out that he went to a bar and got drunk, then I am permitted to be angry with him because his actions give me cause. The anger is then properly channeled at the sin and at the brother who committed the sin. Then proper and more stringent steps can be taken for his restoration. So when the CSB leaves out that vital phrase, they are completely distorting the meaning of what the Lord was teaching which is typical for the modern versions. The King James teaches that anger is proper but only if it has a legitimate cause and the effect will be the rectifying of the situation which caused the anger. Once again the King James leaves nothing to guesswork and that is the way it should be.
 
(8) Doctrine of Forgiveness – Matthew 5:44
(KJB)   But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
 
(CSB) But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

This verse contains some instructions to the true child of God concerning their witness which is evidence of their transformation. First of all, when someone is cursing us, which means they are wishing evil against us, we are not to return evil for evil, instead we are to show them kindness in words. We do not curse them, we bless them and seek their best and not their worst. There are those who are going to hate us because of our testimony for Christ. Instead of us thinking up vengeful acts against them, we are to do good to them. How many times has a person hated us and sometimes they might need a little help and the Lord may engineer their circumstances so that you are the only one who can help them. Then there are those who will despitefully use us. The word “despitefully” carries with it the meaning of “mistreat us.” How many times have believers been used by those in the world to advance themselves while the believer is left behind? This happens every day. Sometimes the world uses our talents or money and makes believe they are appreciative when in reality they are just using us. The Lord Jesus Christ makes sure that we will take no acts of vengeance against anyone who does these things. Instead we are to bless them, pray for them, do good for them, and finally love them. No one says it is going to be easy. When the Gnostics left out these words by chopping up the verse, they were acting on their own mindsets. In the academic world there is cut throat competition to be the tops in the field. What kind of a person would earn the respect of their colleagues if it looked like they were being walked upon.  Arrogance and pride were at the heart of the butchering of this verse and it is a shame that the modern translators have allowed the arrogance of the Gnostics to have survived. Sixteen words have been removed from the verse.
 
(9) Doctrine of the Bible – Accuracy – Matthew 6:27
(KJB)   Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
 
(CSB)  Can any of you add one moment to his life span by worrying?
 
Here is a case of the CSB translators making an interpretation instead of a translation. What time is it? It is one foot and 6 inches! That is about the way the “experts” have confused this verse. A cubit is approximately 18 inches. So when we look at the CSB we must ask the question, how can one add 18 inches to the span or length of their life? It is confusing time with measurement. Now the Greek word behind the term “stature” is the word “hlikia” and it is translated two ways in the New Testament. The first way is in Matthew 6:27 and Luke 12:25 where it speaks of a person’s stature, which is a person’s natural height. The second way is “age” which would represent time and we see this in the CSB. But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself. (John 9:21)  So we see that the meaning of this word is determined by the context. In John 9:21, we read the parents of the blind man made to see was speaking of the age of the man. In Matthew 6:27 and Luke 12:25, we interpret it as height because the word “stature” is connected to the words “one cubit.” The Greek word behind “cubit” is “pêchus” which is used 4 times in the New Testament and always means a unit of measurement. One cubit is a term of physical measurement and not of time. What we have here in the CSB is the neglect of context. If we ignore and neglect context, then we will always come up with an erroneous conclusion just like all the CSB has.
 
(10) Doctrine of Christ – Blood of the New Testament – Matthew 26:28
(KJB) For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

(CSB) For this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.
 
And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you concerning all these words. (Exodus 24:8) When the CSB omits the word “new” the verse can be misconstrued to mean a continuation of the covenant of Sinai which we read here in Exodus 24:8. The Lord Jesus Christ went to the cross and instituted the NEW covenant or testament. It was totally different than the Old Testament. Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: (Jeremiah 31:31) The new covenant was a fulfillment of numerous Old Testament passages of Scripture such as Jeremiah 31:31. When the CSB omits “new” it leaves grace out of the equation. The new covenant is the only way a person can become saved because under the law of the Old Testament, it was called a curse since no one could ever keep the law for salvation. For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. (Galatians 3:10)  Jesus was the new Passover lamb which was foreshadowed under the old covenant by the lambs which were sacrificed on the altar in the tabernacle and temple. And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel. (Hebrews 12:24) Jesus was the mediator of the New Covenant not just “a” covenant. There needs to be a specific rendering so a difference between the old and new can be recognized. Once again the CSB brings nothing but confusion and wrong teachings. It is better to stay with the King James Bible and avoid these confusion traps.
 
(11) Doctrine of Christ – Healing – Mark 1:42
(KJB) And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.
 
(CSB) Immediately the leprosy left him, and he was made clean.
 
A leper had come to Jesus to be healed and Jesus was willing to heal him. He had commanded him to stretch out his hand and then Jesus touched his hand and said “be thou clean” so immediately the leprosy had left him. The CSB omits the fact that Jesus spoke this disease out of the leper just as Jesus spoke the creation into existence. The CSB removes the fact that Jesus has the ability to command a disease to leave a body. These healings are also pictures of salvation. When Jesus saves a person, it is not a long drawn out affair such as progressive salvation but it is instantaneous. When Jesus saves a person, they are saved from the moment that He declares them saved. The CSB omits a great lesson on salvation plus they attack the words of the Lord Jesus, in that as soon as He commands, whatever He commands, obeys.
 
(12) Doctrine of Judgment – Mark 6:11
(KJB) And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
 
(CSB  If any place does not welcome you or listen to you, when you leave there, shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them.”
 
This is another one of those severely mutilated verses. There are 23 words omitted from this verse in the CSB and we are supposed to accept the propaganda that the CSB is better and more accurate. How many would buy a car if 23 components were missing from the engine? I don’t think so but yet, we are supposed to accept this grammatical rape of the true Bible.
 
In this verse the Lord Jesus Christ is teaching a tremendous lesson and as usual the CSB translators fail to see it, but then again, you must be saved to see spiritual truth. The Lord is saying that wherever He sends His witnesses in the world and if the message of the true Gospel is rejected by those sent to, then it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of Judgment. Why? Because Sodom and Gomorrah did not have the extensive witness of the true Gospel light as we have today. When the Lord Jesus Christ was on earth, He was the walking witness and the truth personified. Sodom and Gomorrah will be judged on the basis of the light which was given to them. The unbelievers who scoff and mock the Gospel will be judged more harshly because they will have been given much more Gospel witness than Sodom and Gomorrah. If we look at the United States, there is hardly any town where there are no church steeples dotting the landscape. Even if the church is a dead one, from the outside it still holds a religious implication and is a reminder that there is a God in Heaven. Even when one passes by a cemetery it is a reminder of the fact that “life’s transient dream” will end someday. Churches are reminders to the unbelievers of something that is not of this world which means that they are reminders of the light of the Gospel. Those who scoff will give a greater account than Sodom and Gomorrah with their limited light.  If the translators of the CSB would see that they are nothing more than spiritual prostitutes for the kingdom of Satan, they might realize how much of a role they are playing to confuse the body of Christ. Once again the King James Bible gives us the complete story while the CSB has done Satan’s bidding.
 
(13) Doctrine of Scripture – Imputation of Spiritual Hearing – Mark 7:16
(KJB) If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
 
(CSB) Entire verse omitted
 
This verse is in the midst of the chapter which deals with the Word of God versus the traditions of men. This chapter is one of the most hated by “works gospels.” The statement which the Lord Jesus Christ makes, “If any man have ears to hear, let him hear” is focused upon those who are truly saved. All human beings are born with ears and those who heard the Lord Jesus had physical ears but what is in view here are those who can understand spiritual truths, those with spiritual ears. The Gnostics did not believe in the Holy Spirit as being the third person of the trinity and therefore did not believe that He indwells the true believer, giving to them the spiritual ears which have the ability to understand the spiritual truths of the Bible. This is also one of the ways a person can tell if they are saved by the way they respond to spiritual truths. If they can understand them, then they have spiritual ears but if they are just heard with unsaved ears, then the spiritual truths are not understood. Once again the CSB places doubt upon a great spiritual truth of the Bible. If we remain with the King James Bible our faith remains intact rather than being fragmented in doubt and disbelief which spews from the modern versions.
 
(14) Doctrine of Christ – His Sinless and Pure Nature – Luke 2:22
(KJB) Jesus had to be purified because he had sin  And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord
 
(CSB) And when the days of their purification according to the law of Moses were finished, they brought him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord
 
Here is another attack on the purity of Jesus Christ.  In Leviticus 12 we read the ceremony behind this.  When a woman gave birth to a male, she was to be unclean for 8 days and then an additional 33 days and after that she was to bring a sin offering to the temple which could have been a lamb or even a pigeon.  Then the priest would offer it before the LORD and she would then be purified.  This is exactly how it is written in the KJB but when we look at the CSB, we see that the sin offering was for both of them implying that Jesus had sin and had to have a sin offering on his behalf also.  This is a serious indictment against the purity and sinless nature of Christ.  For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.  (Hebrews 4:15) 
 
(15) Doctrine of the Bible – Christian Living - Luke 4:4
(KJB) And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.
 
(CSB) But Jesus answered him, “It is written: Man must not live on bread alone.
 
The affected part of this verse is not found in either Vaticanus or Sinaiticus. These are just deleted without reason. The removal of this part of Scripture gives the impression that every word of God is not important. The Christian is to live by the word of God in contrast to the world that lives only by its five senses. The editors of the CSB make it clear that their concern is not that Christians read the Bible in its entirety, without any deletions or omissions, but they truncate the word of God according to the Westcott-Hort belief system. If these editors of the CSB were serious about giving the Christians a complete Bible, they would not allow tampered versions to be placed into the hands of Christians. Their unconcern is obvious when they impeach the verity of the Scriptures by even removing the reminder to Christians that we are to live by every word of God and where is the word of God found? In the Holy Bible!
 
By removing the requirement for Christians to live by the word of God, it opens the doors for false churches and cults to fill in that gap with their own teachings and rituals. If we do not live by the word of God, then what do we live by? Is it the teachings of apostate Protestantism? Is it the superstition of the Roman Catholic Institution? Is it the phony love gospel as found in many cults? When the command of Scripture to live by Scripture is removed, it opens the door for Satan’s people to fill in that gap.
 
That part of the verse is very important because God had promised to preserve His words and not the concepts or teachings. The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. {7} Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever. (Psalm 12:6-7)  Not only has God promised to preserve His words but this passage is a quotation from the Old Testament. And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live. (Deuteronomy 8:3) In Deuteronomy, God had told the Israelites that man does not live by only bread but by the Word of God. The Israelites were in the wilderness for forty years and throughout their sojourn, was it only the physical food that kept them going? It was God’s guidance and His guidance came through the written and spoken word. So when these modern Gnostics remove any part of Scripture, they are denying true guidance for the Christian from the words of God Himself. Do the modern intellects actually believe they have more knowledge and wisdom than God, so that they can sit in judgment of His holy Word?
 
The CSB disregards the very words of God in the Bible and takes the liberty of removing what they do not want. The second century Gnostics attacked the Scriptures and the intellects of today claim superior knowledge to what they had back then and yet have chosen to agree with the Gnostics by perpetuating the evil attacks on the Scriptures. So how then do today’s version pundits hold superior knowledge when they are doing the same things the unbelieving Gnostics did and accepting all their corruptions? That would be like a medical doctor who holds a degree from Johns Hopkins University or Harvard University that still uses second century medical techniques. Could the seminaries be putting out religious Gnostics rather than true Bible believing Christians? Guess what? Any school that uses the Hort-Westcott text is a descendant of the school of Alexandria AKA Gnosticism. Then we wonder why our churches are overrun with false gospels. False versions cannot expose or expunge false gospels, not when they themselves are a false gospel.
 
(16) Doctrine of Salvation – Eternal Security – John 3:15
(KJB) That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
 
(CSB) so that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life.
 
By removing the words “should not perish” there is a denial of the literalness of Hell. Eternal damnation for sin has long been held by liberals and apostates as a false teaching. This is why it is not surprising that both the second century Gnostics of Alexandria, Egypt and the modern day theologians have both agreed that this true biblical doctrine must go. The idea of accountability, with consequences, to a Holy God has been anathematized over the centuries and in our day of great “enlightenment” through intellectualism, culpability has been excised. With many apostates in the pulpits and the Christians afraid to ask questions or to question the validity of these versions, creates a perfect environment for deception. The modern versions are sources for disbelief, doubt, and doctrinal attacks and must be avoided at all costs.
 
(17) Doctrine of Christ – Only Begotten Son – John 3:16
(KJB) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

(CSB)
For God loved the world in this way: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
 
The Greek word behind “begotten” is “monogene.”  It is contained in both the Textus Receptus and the Hort Westcott manuscripts. The word carries with it the meaning of “unique or one-of-a-kind.” The word is used to denote the difference between the Lord Jesus Christ who is in unique relationship with the Father and the born again Christian who are also called sons and daughters of God. In the CSB, we read that Jesus was the “only” Son of God. This is a misnomer because when you change the word to “only” from “begotten,” you are attacking two major teachings in the Scripture. First, the unique relationship the Lord Jesus had with the Father by means of Him coming to Earth and dying for His Elect and paying the complete price for their sins. The second teaching is that when a person becomes truly born again, they become a son or daughter of God. The CSB makes it sound like there are no other sons or daughters and this is proven incorrect by the following Scriptures.
 
And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. (2 Corinthians 6:18)
 
I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth; (Isaiah 43:6)
 
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. (1 John 3:1)
 
That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world; (Philippians 2:15)
 
The importance of the word “begotten” shows the difference between those who have become sons and daughters of God by adoption, and the Lord Jesus Christ who has always been with the Father throughout all eternity. To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. (Galatians 4:5)  In the Greek, there is a perfectly good word which God could have used if He wanted to convey Jesus as His “only” Son and that word is “monon” which is used 67 times in the New Testament and is translated “only or alone.”
 
Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; (John 17:20)
 
And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad. (John 11:52)
 
So in the book of John, there is a usage of the word “monon” and the word “monogene” which shows us that there is a difference in the meanings and their usage. It is also interesting to note that word “begotten” is included in the English text of the 1881 Hort-Westcott Revised Version, the 1901 American Revised Version which is a clone of the 1881 RV. This means that the deletion of the word “begotten” is of recent origin. The translation of the Revised Standard Version was approved in 1937 by the National Council of Churches and the NT was completed in 1946. So the change of “begotten” to “only” probably was done around that time. It seems apparent that the modern theologians are no better than their second century Gnostic colleagues.
 
(18) Doctrine of Angels – John 5:3-4
(KJB)  {3} In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.  {4} For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.

(CSB) {3}  Within these lay a large number of the disabled—blind, lame, and paralyzed. {4} Omits Entire Verse
 
The removal of this verse is one of the most blatant denials of the doctrine of angels. When you add the fact that an angel came down and stirred the water so the first one who stepped in would become well. The corruption of these verses goes back as far as 200 AD which means that the Gnostic corruption is still adhered to today. These two verses are the prelude to the real focus of this section and that is the healing of the sick man of 38 years by the Lord Jesus Christ. These two verses are needed to lay the ground work for the miracle that the Lord Jesus Christ was going to do. These two verses are in Tatian’s Diatesseron, dated about 175 AD, which predates the corruption. It was also found in the Old Latin Vulgate dated between 90-150 AD which predates the corruption. Tertullian in 200 AD also referred to these two passages which means that these verses were intentionally corrupted to destroy the continuity of the message of the miracle which the Lord performed.
 
Others who confirmed the authenticity are: Gregory of Nazianzus 390 A.D.; Ambrose (340-397 A.D.), Chrysostom 390 A.D. and Didymus 379 A.D, Ammonius (Third Century), Hilary (Fourth century), Ephraem the Syrian (ca. 306-373 A.D.), Nilus (died c. 430 A.D.), Jerome (347-420 A.D.), Cyril of Alexandria (ca. 376-444 A.D), Augustine (354-430 A.D.), and Theodorus Studita (759-826 A.D.) Other Bible translations which include the two verses in full are Wycliffe 1384, Tyndale 1526, Coverdale 1535, the Great Bible 1540, Matthew's Bible of 1549, the Bishops’ Bible 1568, the Geneva Bible 1560 & 1599, Wesley’s New Testament 1755, The modern versions continue to hold to the Gnostic corruption but the King James delivers the truth without any hesitation simply because it is God’s preserved Word.
 
(19) Doctrine of Christ – Verity – John 7:8
(KJB) Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast; for my time is not yet full come.
 
(CSB) Go up to the festival yourselves. I’m not going up to this festival,[a] because my time has not yet fully come.”
 
The Feast of Tabernacles was taking place and it lasted 7 days.  Jesus’ brethren were going up to the feast but he did not go at that time but attended a little later.  Many were awaiting the arrival of Jesus and were looking for him at the feast.  In the KJB Jesus states that he was not going up yet to the feast so his brethren went on ahead of him and we read in John 7:10 we read the Jesus did go the feast later.  But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.  (John 7:10)  If you look at the CSB you will see that it states plainly that Jesus said “he was not going up to the feast” which means that Jesus had lied to his brethren.  This is another indictment against the pure nature of the Lord Jesus Christ making him a sinner in the CSB.
 
(20) Doctrine of Christ – Healing – Acts 3:11
(KJB) And as the lame man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.
 
(CSB) While he was holding on to Peter and John, all the people, utterly astonished, ran toward them in what is called Solomon’s Colonnade.
 
In these opening verses of Acts 3, Peter performs a miracle of healing on a man who was lame from birth. This man was so grateful for being healed that he was walking and leaping all around praising God that He healed him. Verse 11 in the CSB leaves out a tremendous piece of information. In the CSB it sounds like the man was not healed, since they left out the phrase “lame man which was healed.” It sounds like the man was clinging to Peter and John to stabilize himself so he could stand. The CSB denies a great miracle had taken place which denies Christ the glory due Him. This man was totally healed and he clung to Peter and John out of joy, not out of necessity.
 
(21) Doctrine of God and Christ – Acts 4:24
(KJB) And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:

(CSB) When they heard this, they raised their voices together to God and said, “Master, you are the one who made the heaven, the earth, and the sea, and everything in them.
 
The threats and the warnings that the Christians had received did not deter them one bit nor cause any discouragement. In fact, they had gone into a time of praising God and worshipping Him. They were extolling the fact that God was the creator of Heaven and Earth, and had the power to direct His creation any way He saw fit, including the fact that He can heal those who are beyond help in human terms as was the lame man that was healed. There was great harmony of mind and understanding as they praised the Lord. These words are a great testimony of the Sovereignty of God and His power that can control everything that is contained in Heaven, Earth, and the seas. The Apostles and those with them were making a confession that the Lord, “thou art God.” This was a phrase used to extol God also found in the Hebrew Scriptures.
 
David
For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone. (Psalm 86:10)
 
And now, LORD, thou art God, and hast promised this goodness unto thy servant: (1 Chronicles 17:26)
 
Moses
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God. (Psalm 90:2)
 
Elijah
And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word. (1 Kings 18:36)
 
So we see that the CSB removes a great confession by children of God who acknowledge Him as the great God of the Universe who had created all things. The CSB reduces the Glory of God to more of a delivery of information rather than extolling the Glory of God.
 
(22) Doctrine of Christ – His Testimony – Acts 8:37
(KJB) And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
 
(CSB) Omitted
 
Acts 8:37 is another testimony that Jesus is the Son of God. By the Ethiopian Eunuch using the word “is” (present tense in Greek) instead of “was” he was stating a fact that Jesus is alive. His resurrection was doubted by many but here the Scripture is stating that He is alive plus it is another scriptural testimony of Jesus being the Son of God, a title of Divinity. This is why the Gnostics would have ripped it out of the text, simply because they did not believe that God, being good, could dwell in a sinful, corrupted human body. They did not believe that Jesus was the Son of God only a good human being, plus that He only became Christ at His birth without pre-existence. This verse is in the Old Latin Vulgate of 90-150 A.D. which was a direct copy from the original autographs.  The Eunuch’s confession of faith is the confession that every true believer holds and for the CSB to omit it, shows that they have nothing but contempt for the Lord Jesus Christ.
 
A Little History on Acts 8:37
Acts 8:37 is another verse which met its doom in the 2nd century by the Gnostics. It is omitted in the Vaticanus and Sinaiticus. It is also omitted in the NIV, ESV, RSV, NWT, and NAB. The NASV and the NKJV are more subtle in the way they attack this verse. The NASV places brackets around the verse and then states without any qualifying evidence that “Early manuscripts do not contain this verse.” This statement is very vague and really means nothing since all manuscripts are early. What is the definition of early? 1st century, 2nd century, 5th century? The NKJV (New King James Version) is also very subtle in its attack. The center column of the NKJV is Satan’s playground and on this verse it states, “NU-Text and M-Text omit this verse. It is found in Western texts, including the Latin tradition.” The NU Text they are referring to is the Nestle Aland Text (N) and the United Bible Societies Text (U). Both of which are heavily based on the Vaticanus and Sinaiticus. So the NKJV claiming to be a revision of the King James, is another false version which, according to Dr. D.A. Waite in his research, which I have in my possession, departs from the Textus Receptus in 2,000+ places. Now the second half of their claim. What Western texts? What is the Latin tradition? Is it referring to Jerome’s corrupt Latin Vulgate of the 4th century, is it the Old Latin Vulgate c. 90-150 A.D., or is it Roman Catholic tradition?
 
There are 5255 extant manuscripts and unless one studies the manuscript issue, they will never know that statements such as “Oldest and Best” or “Early Manuscripts” refer to the two corrupted manuscripts, Sinaiticus and Vaticanus. In fact, the modern translations are based on only 45 manuscripts which are less than 1% of all manuscripts. This means that the modern versions have completely and intentionally disregarded over 99% of the manuscripts.  Christians must begin to question these things, it is necessary that they do.
 
(23) Doctrine of the Gospel – It is of Christ – Romans 1:16
(KJB) For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
 
(CSB) For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, and also to the Greek.
 
“Of Christ” is only two small words but they project the essence of Paul’s entire ministry and that also of the Christian throughout the ages. There are many “gospels” out in the world today and for the last 2,000 years there have been an abundance of them. Without the qualifier “of Christ” in this verse the religious unbeliever can claim they are not ashamed of their gospel. The Roman Catholic can proclaim they are not ashamed of the gospel of Mary. The Jehovah’s Witnesses can claim they are not ashamed of their gospel. Any false church can claim they are not ashamed of their social gospel. The words “of Christ” are very important because there is only one true Gospel which can save and that is the Gospel of Christ. This is why the CSB fits perfectly into false churches and cults because they do not proclaim the Gospel of Christ. This is why the King James Bible is superior because it does not shrink back from giving the true Gospel in contrast to the CSB.
 
(24) Doctrine of Christian Living – Romans 8:1
(KJB) There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
 
(CSB) Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus,
 
The Jehovah’s Witnesses version and the Roman Catholic version have absolute agreement with five major versions used in the Protestant Church, and by most Christians. This portion of Scripture is missing in both Vaticanus and Sinaiticus. In the footnotes of the United Bible Societies fourth revised edition, the names of Marcion and Origen appear as those who are the ones responsible for removing the above part of this verse. As previously mentioned, both were heretics and Gnostics. It is interesting to note that a fifth century (maybe earlier in date) manuscript entitled Alexandrinus (A) contains the removed portion, yet the modern scholars of today have chosen to leave it omitted since it does not appear in the two crowning manuscripts of modern scholarship.
 
The Roman Catholic institution would love nothing more than to leave out that portion because if a person is walking according to the Spirit, it means they are saved and indwelled by the Holy Spirit. If a person is walking after the flesh, it means they are unsaved but it also means they are able to be brought under the bondage of works gospels, such as Roman Catholicism, who keep their adherents fastened to a system of rituals and works. A person who is in the flesh, will continue to work for their salvation according to the dictates of their church or institution. They may work for it, but will never attain it.
 
That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. (Romans 8:4) The fulfillment of God’s righteous law comes by being indwelled with the Holy Spirit through salvation. Christ fulfilled the requirements of God’s Holy Law for all His people. So those who are walking in the Spirit through salvation have also, in Christ, fulfilled the demands of God’s Holy Law. To remove that part of Scripture gives a person, who is involved with false gospels a false assurance that just because they are doing religious works, they are in Christ Jesus. This is one of the grave dangers of tampering with the Word of God because those who use these versions do not have the entire Word which means they are being deceived by a corrupted version. God gave every word in the Bible for a purpose and for someone to remove anything is to endanger the eternal souls of people.
 
By removing that part of verse one, it conveys to those working for salvation that they are not under condemnation. Every person who is not born again is under the wrath of God. No human being can work themselves out from under the wrath of God.
 
He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. (John 3:18)
 
He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. (John 3:36)
 
The next time you get a letter from some Bible society or ministry asking for money to help send Bibles abroad, find out what manuscripts or what version they are using, before you send money. Why would any Christian want to help foster corruption and deception upon unknowing Christians in other lands? We have a responsibility to other Christians, whether we see them face to face or never see them till eternity.
 
(25) Doctrine of Salvation – Calling of the Elect – Romans 9:28
(KJB) For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.
 
(CSB) since the Lord will execute his sentence completely and decisively on the earth.
 
This verse is taken from Isaiah 10:22-23. For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant of them shall return: the consumption decreed shall overflow with righteousness. {23} For the Lord GOD of hosts shall make a consumption, even determined, in the midst of all the land. (Isaiah 10:22-23) The work of salvation will be cut short, which means it will be a quick termination. When the Lord Jesus Christ went to the cross, He finished the work of salvation. When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. (John 19:30) Now the only part left is the calling and sealing of those who would be born in the future until the last one is saved. From the viewpoint of eternity, the work is already finished and if you notice that the work was cut short in righteousness. The righteousness is the righteousness which was imputed to every believer. By omitting this portion from the verse, it removes the type of work which will be done on the earth and that is salvation by grace which imputes righteousness. The Mosaic law was in use for 1500 years but the sacrifice of Christ, and thus the sealing of all the Elect was done in six hours on Calvary and confirmed by His resurrection on Sunday. The CSB omits this fact which affects all Christians.
 
(26) Doctrine of Salvation – For the Elect only – 1 Corinthians 5:7
(KJB) Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:
 
(CSB) Clean out the old leaven so that you may be a new unleavened batch, as indeed you are. For Christ our Passover lamb has been sacrificed.
 
If there is one thing that God deals in, it is specifics as we have seen many times before. Man deals in the nebulous. The two words which are omitted are very important because they specifically state who the Lord Jesus Christ died for. He died only for His people. And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. (Matthew 1:21) The Matthew verse states that Jesus came to save “His” people from their sins. Who are His people? Those whom He has saved. The CSB just states that Jesus was sacrificed but the reason for His sacrifice is open for interpretation by anyone and any system. Christ died for His Elect chosen from the foundation of the world. According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: (Ephesians 1:4) The modern versions leave Christ’s sacrifice without reason and therefore many believe they are saved when they are not. Once again the King James Bible does not leave us without the proper understanding of the Atonement of Christ.
 
(27) Doctrine of Christ – Creator – 1 Corinthians 10:28
(KJB) But if any man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof:
 
(CSB) But if someone says to you, “This is food from a sacrifice,” do not eat it, out of consideration for the one who told you, and for the sake of conscience.
 
The omitted part of this verse is taken from Psalm 24. The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. (Psalm 24:1) The Psalmist is assuring the true believer that the world belongs to the Lord by reason of Him being the Creator. If someone offers a Christian food which was offered to idols, then for a testimony we are not to eat of it. We know that the world belongs to the Lord and that idols are nothing more than man’s imagination, yet, they can hold influence over any person involved in a false religion. Just look at India where there are many millions of gods which are worshipped. Our testimony is to avoid what is sacrificed to idols. The Thessalonian Christians had a great testimony concerning the turning away from idols. For they themselves show of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God; (1 Thessalonians 1:9) Now let us bring the idols down to today. When we go to work, there are no idols in the front of the company but are idols still present? The answer is yes. Let’s mention a few. The idol of greed worshipped through office pools or group lottery purchases. The idol of sex worshipped through the eyes of lust when looking at someone in the office. The idol of laziness worshipped through slacking off when the boss is not looking. I think you get the picture. We, as the Thessalonians, must put off all forms of idolatry no matter how subtle they may be. Idolatry is a learned lifestyle. Why the CSB omits the part of the verse which deals with the Lord as the owner of the earth is a mystery but nevertheless they left it out and it is an important part of understanding the verse.
 
(28) Doctrine of Salvation – A Singular Event – 2 Corinthians 2:15
(KJB) For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:
 
(CSB) For to God we are the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing.
 
Here is an example of the CSB questioning the salvation status of every believer. The Greek word “sodzomenois” which is translated for “are” is in the present tense. This means that it is speaking of those who are already saved and although this word can possess a future tense, it is not designated here. Many in religion see salvation as an ongoing process and must be accomplished over time. However, the Bible tells us that each one who has become saved, has been saved at one point in time. It is sanctification which is a life long journey and not salvation. We become saved at one point in life and then we begin to become sanctified. For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication: (1 Thessalonians 4:3) The New Age movement sees salvation as something which takes years to accomplish but their salvation is much different than the salvation given by God. In 2 Cor. 2:15, we are a sweet savour to those who are saved already. The modern versions make it sound like we are a sweet savour to those “being saved.” If they are being saved, then we are not a sweet savor to them because they are still unsaved and we are a savour unto death to them as verse 16 states. The big issue here is that the modern versions are teaching that salvation is a process and not a single event. This is a false teaching because if salvation is a process then how many works must we do? How long must we do them? How would we know they would be accepted by God? And probably a string of other questions which would have to be posed. It is good that we have the King James Bible to give us the truth about salvation and not make us think that salvation is a process.
 
(29) Doctrine of the Resurrection – Denied – 2 Corinthians 4:14
(KJB) Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you.
 
(CSB) For we know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you.
 
“By” is changed to “with” (change gives implication that Christ will be raised on the last day when the Christians will be raised. It denies the resurrection of Christ on the Third day.)
 
Here is one of the more crafty changes in the modern versions. If you notice in the King James it states that God is going to raise us up from the dead by Jesus Christ. If you notice in the CSB it states that God is going to raise us up with Jesus. The Jesus of the CSB is still dead in His tomb if God is going to raise Him up with us. The King James portrays Christ in truth that He is alive and it is by Him that God is going to raise us up on the last day. This verse teaches us that Christ is going to be the means by which the true believers are raised to eternal life. The CSB changes the Greek preposition from “dia” which means “by or through” to “sun” which means “with, together with, or besides.” This means the CSB is teaching that Christ is going to be raised along with all the other believers on the last day. This would fit perfectly into Roman Catholic beliefs since their Jesus is still hanging dead on a cross. Once again the King James Bible gives us the true teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ while the modern versions attack Him. Let us stay with the King James Bible and know truth so we can be stable in our Christian walk.
 
(30) Doctrine of Grace – Unaffected by Law – Galatians 3:17
(KJB) And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.
 
(CSB) My point is this: The law, which came 430 years later, does not invalidate a covenant previously established by God and thus cancel the promise.
 
This is one of the most subtle yet serious deletions in the New Testament. Galatians 3:17 is teaching us plainly that the covenant of Grace that God made with Abraham, before the law was given, would never be affected by the Law. God had already named those whom He was going to save before the foundation of the world. The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. (Revelation 17:8)
 
Therefore Grace would never be annulled by the Law. Here is the subtle omission. The CSB leaves out the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. It was through Him that Grace came. This also gives us insight into the salvation of the Old Testament Saints. Many Christians get tripped up thinking that the Old Testament Saints were saved in a different manner than those on the New Testament side of the cross. God saves only through Grace and that Grace came through the Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible teaches us that the Lord Jesus Christ was slain in principle from before the foundations of the world. This means that everyone who was saved from the Old Testament and New Testament eras, were saved only through the grace of God which came through the Lord Jesus Christ. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. (Revelation 13:8) Revelation 13:8 teaches us plainly that Christ was crucified, in principle, before the foundation of the world. According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: (Ephesians 1:4) Ephesians 1:4 confirms the fact that all God’s believers were chosen, in Christ, before the foundation of the world. It is a shame that the CSB omits the name of Jesus Christ as God’s only channel of grace for the true believer. By mutilating this verse, the translators and editors of the CSB show they have no understanding of God’s salvation program and are only out to make money.
 
(31) Doctrine of Salvation – The New Creature – Galatians 6:15
(KJV) For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
 
(CSB) For both circumcision and uncircumcision mean nothing; what matters instead is a new creation.
 
By removing “in Christ Jesus” they are removing the only way a person can become a new creature. Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. (2 Corinthians 5:17) The same Greek word “ktisis” is used in both Galatians 6:15 and 2 Corinthians 5:17 which means “creature or creation.” The Gnostics would have deleted this phrase simply because their idea of salvation is to increase in knowledge of God. So their persistent attacks on the Lord Jesus show here that they disbelieved that the Lord Jesus Christ is the only way one can become a new creature.
 
In Galatians 6:15, by removing “in Christ Jesus” the verse really makes no sense. The CSB speaks of a new creation in this verse but does not tell you how to be a new creation by being in Christ Jesus. By removing that pivotal phrase, a person may try to become a new creation through Yoga, Eastern Meditation, Ritualistic Religion, Cult involvement, or many other ways. Many years ago John Denver sang a song called “Rocky Mountain High” where he speaks of a man going to the Rocky Mountains and the phrase was “might say he’s born again.” People are trying to become new creations in a thousand different ways but God only has one way for a person to become a new creature and that is being in Christ Jesus. This deletion is an attack upon the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior. Once again modern theologians and publishers agree with their second century Gnostic counterparts. You know, it is interesting that these theologians keep telling us that we have much more manuscripts available to us today than the King James Translators had and yet it seems we have a smaller Bible with every new translation. More manuscripts equals less Bible, go figure!
 
(32) Doctrine of the Holy Spirit – Ephesians 5:9
(KJV) (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
 
(CSB) for the fruit of the light consists of all goodness, righteousness, and truth—
 
One of the most popular tenets of Gnosticism is their rejection of spirit, especially the Holy Spirit. So we see in this verse that they changed the word “Spirit” to “light.” Since they disregard God’s thoughts, they probably changed the words to reflect the usage of “light” in verse 8 in belief they are continuing the thought. However, this is a very subtle but major change. Verse 9 is speaking of the Fruit of the Spirit which gives goodness, righteousness, and truth. These are all tenets of the born again Christian and the light that is in view in verse 8 is really speaking of the true Gospel. The children of light, in verse 8, are the true Children of God by regeneration.
 
There is a second danger of changing “spirit” to “light” and that is the New Age tenet of “inner light.” The inner light of the New Age movement is actually demon possession. Many in the New Age Movement have trance channeled demons and believed they were walking in inner light given by the ascended masters. The New Age movement puts Jesus in the same category as Confucius, Buddha, and other false teachers whom the New Age movement touts as giving light for a new age. When you read Eph. 5:9 with the word “light” it makes for a great New Age teaching and proof text. This is why the modern versions fit perfectly into false teachings including the New Age. We can thank the Lord that He has preserved His Word in the King James Bible because it does not send us into false teachings but protects us from them.
 
(33) Doctrine of Christian living- Be strong in the Lord – Ephesians 6:10
(KJB) Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
 
(CSB) Finally, be strengthened by the Lord and by his vast strength.
 
Verse 10 begins the great section of Ephesians 6 which teaches that the Brethren are to rely solely upon the Lord and His might. This is why the message is directed specifically to the saved, AKA brethren. When the CSB omits “my brethren” it is making it sound as if anyone can be strong in the Lord. This would include the religious and the disconnected unsaved. Only those who are truly saved will be able to be strong in the Lord because the Holy Spirit dwells in the saved and not in the unsaved. The spiritually dead will never become strong in the Lord until they become saved. False religions will love these type of omissions because then they can fill the breach with their religious rhetoric and attempt to make their adherents believe they can be strong in the Lord. Just ask Goliath if that is possible. Once again the King James Bible proves its superiority by giving us the whole story and not forcing us to rely upon clerical hooey to fill in the spaces.
 
(34) Doctrine of Christian Living – Like Minds - Philippians 3:16
(KJB) Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.
 
(CSB) In any case, we should live up to whatever truth we have attained.
 
One of the most precious teachings of Scripture is that Christians be of the same mind. That is what this portion of the Scripture is teaching. Christians do not attain unity by just following rules and regulations but the idea of unity begins in the mind.
 
Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you. (Philippians 3:15)
 
Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. (Philippians 2:2)
 
Paul uses the terms for Christians to be like minded seven times in the book of Philippians because being likeminded is a major theme permeating this book. Paul does not stop at Christians walking by the same rule which is the rule of equality among Christians because of the new birth.
 
{15} For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. {16} And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God. (Galatians 6:15-16)
 
Paul teaches us that equality begins in the mind and true understanding of Scripture begins in the mind because Christians have the mind of Christ, we need to be in unity not in disunity. By the CSB editors leaving off the part of Scripture which deals with being likeminded, they have cut off the source whereby a person can walk in the rule of equality. If a person thinks him or herself to be better than others, then they violate the rule of equality among Christians. This principle is taught in Romans 12:3:
 
For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. (Romans 12:3)
 
Christians may be at different spiritual levels in their walk but none is more equal than the other and that is why this portion of Scripture is very important. When we separate the regenerated mind from actions, we will fall into all kinds of sin. That is why Paul stresses the fact that we must be likeminded as we walk in our Christian walk.
 
(35) Doctrine of Christ – Philippians 4:13
(KJB) I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
 
(CSB)  I am able to do all things through him who strengthens me.
 
Once again we see the name of Christ removed from the text. If you look at the Greek text, you will see the name “christos” exists. If you look at the Hort-Westcott text, you will see it has been removed and nothing was put in its place. It was just taken out without any reason given. Instead of the modern translators placing “Christ” back into the text, they replaced the proper name “Christ” with the pronoun “him.” By using the pronoun “him” anyone can place any specific false god or saint in there. A Roman Catholic might claim that St. Anthony strengthens them or a Hindu may claim Krishna strengthens them.  By removing the specific name of Christ from this passage, they remove the true revealed source of the believer’s strength and rob Christ of His glory within the body of Christ. Once again the CSB engenders confusion and makes itself agreeable to false religions, when they should be countering false religions.
 
(36) Doctrine of Christ – His Sacrifice on Calvary – Colossians 1:14
(KJB) In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
 
(CSB) In him we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
 
This verse is another which has met the ax of the corruptors. The portion “through his blood” has been eliminated from this verse which eradicates God’s method of salvation. All the blood sacrifices of the Old Testament were looking forward to the sacrifice the Lord Jesus was going to make on Calvary. He came in the flesh and was to die for His people so they may gain eternal life. His death involved the shedding of His blood and it was through that shedding of blood that we gained eternal life. And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. (Hebrews 9:22)
 
There are many liberals and apostates, even within the church that have no problem with the removal of the sacrifice of Christ, since many apostate churches seek their salvation by works. This verse is eliminated in Aleph (Sinaiticus) and B (Vaticanus), the two crowning glories of the modernist. Satan will not assail the verses on a large scale but will use thousands of small corruptions so they will easily escape the eye. Colossians 1:14 is one of those verses. If you will look at Ephesians 1:7, we see the phrase “through his blood” is left intact.
 
Ephesians 1:7
(KJB) In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
 
(CSB) In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace
 
(1901 ASV) in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins:
 
(NASV) In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace
 
How could leaving out such an important phrase enhance the meaning of Colossians 1:14? Now if they left this phrase in Ephesians 1:7, what could possibly be the reason to remove it from Colossians 1:14? The answer is simple, the attack upon the Scriptures is massive but done subtlety. They leave one in and take one out, knowing full well that the majority of Christians will defend the fact that they left this phrase in Ephesians 1:7 and will not concern themselves with the omission in Colossians 1:14. We must never forget that the Scriptures teach that “ALL” Scripture is given by inspiration of God, which means that tampering with just even one letter makes it an evil practice and places one under the judgment of God. And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. (Revelation 22:19) It states clearly that if we take away from “the words” then we are under God’s judgment. Colossians 1:14 is definitely an example of taking away words. Why would any Christian want or defend a bible version that removes the teaching of cardinal doctrines of the faith such as the blood of Christ?
 
(37) Doctrine of Salvation – Sins Removed from the Believer – Colossians 2:11
(KJV) In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
 
(CSB) You were also circumcised in him with a circumcision not done with hands, by putting off the body of flesh, in the circumcision of Christ,
 
One of the greatest aspects of the being a Christian is the fact that God has removed our sins from us.
 
As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us. (Psalm 103:12)
 
And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die. (2 Samuel 12:13)
 
And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. (Jeremiah 31:34)
 
For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more. (Hebrews 8:12)
 
{16} This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; {17} And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. (Hebrews 10:16-17)
 
The new nature that we have since salvation coexists with the sinful nature in this body of death until either we are taken home or the Lord returns. The sinful nature has not been removed from us because it is ingrained in our flesh as Colossians 2:11 in the KJB shows us. God has removed our sins and those sins include the ones we have not committed yet. This is total redemption of the believer because every sin past, present, and future has been removed from the believer by the sacrifice of Christ on Calvary. If only one sin remains, then no one can ever get into Heaven.
 
The CSB removes this tremendous truth and try to tell us that God has removed our body of flesh. If that was the case, then no believer would be alive since we must abide in our physical bodies until our last day or the last day of history. This is just another example of poor scholarship. If God removed our body of flesh then we would be dead. Instead He removed the sins which were attached to that soul and that is a big difference in understanding. Christians face having two natures in one body and the Apostle Paul had that great struggle too as evidenced in Romans 7.
 
(38) Doctrine of Holiness – 1 Thessalonians 5:27
(KJB) I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren.
 
(CSB)  I charge you by the Lord that this letter be read to all the brothers and sisters.
 
According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: (Ephesians 1:4)
 
Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; (Colossians 3:12)
 
One of the main results of true salvation is that it takes a sinner and makes them a holy person before God. True Christians are holy in the Lord. The CSB omits this fact in 1 Thessalonians 5:27. The KJB keeps it in plus it is also a reminder that there will also be false brethren in the church.  And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage: (Galatians 2:4)  The true brethren are the ones in Christ who are made holy, but the false brethren are still in the kingdom of Satan. The CSB makes no distinction in this verse.  Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:  (Hebrews 12:14)  Hebrews 12:14 states unequivocally that a person must be holy to see the Lord and that is why there is a distinction between the true brethren who are holy and the false brethren who are not.
 
(39) Doctrine of Christ – 1 Timothy 2:7
(KJB) Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
 
(CSB)  For this I was appointed a herald, an apostle (I am telling the truth; I am not lying), and a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
 
The words “in Christ” are used 77 times in the New Testament and out of those 77 times, the Apostle Paul uses it 74 times. It is the testimony of the Apostle Paul that he is in Christ. In other words, it is through the Lord Jesus Christ that Paul had attained his salvation. In 1 Timothy 2:7, Paul affirms his earthly offices of preacher and apostle. These two offices were given to him by Christ upon his salvation which he describes by being “in Christ.” He also tells his readers that the truth which he tells them is sourced in Christ. When the CSB leaves out “in Christ” then the statement is just focusing on Paul that he is telling the truth and that truth is not based on Christ but it is based on Paul. It moves the focus from Christ to Paul. It goes from being Christ-centered to being man-centered. We all know what God says about the verity of man. God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged. (Romans 3:4) God is true and every man a liar. Just like some self-appointed preachers today who call themselves “apostles,” anyone can claim the title but Paul is affirming that his calling came from Christ and not men. Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;) (Galatians 1:1) Paul’s appointment is confirmed in Galatians 1:1. By removing, “in Christ” it also removes the reality that it is Christ who is the head of the church and can place anyone in any position He deems proper. The removal of His name disassociates Him from being the head of the church. It is another attack on the Lord Jesus Christ.
 
(40) Incarnation of Christ – 1 Timothy 3:16; 1 John 4:3
(KJB) And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.  (1 Timothy 3:16)
 
(KJB) And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.  (1 John 4:3)
 
(CSB) And most certainly, the mystery of godliness is great: He was manifested in the flesh, vindicated in the Spirit, seen by angels, preached among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.  (1 Timothy 3:16)
 
(CSB)  but every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming; even now it is already in the world. (1 John 4:3)
 
In 1 Timothy 3:16 we have a declaration of the incarnation of Christ as God in the flesh.  There can be no doubt as who this is speaking about since the other phrases that follow in that verse are speaking directly about Christ.  The early church fathers have given evidence that “God” was definitely in the original writings.
 
Ignatius lived from 35AD to 108AD and says:  "God Himself being manifested in human form"

Gregory of Nyssa lived from 335AD to 395AD, and says:  "Whose are the fathers, and of whom, as concerning the flesh, Christ came, Who is over all, God blessed for ever ," and writing to his disciple Titus, "According to the appearing of Jesus Christ the great God and our Saviour," and to Timothy, proclaims in plain terms, "God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the spirit ."

John Chrysostom lived from 347AD to 407AD, and he says: "And wonder not that Paul saith in another place, "God was manifested in the Flesh"

Theodoret of Cyrus lived from 393AD to 460AD, and he says: "The divine apostle, writing to Timothy, also says “without controversy great is the mystery of godliness. God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.”    (Thanks to a good friend Thomas Golda for these 4 quotes)
 
1 Timothy 3:16 is one of the most clearest teachings on the incarnation of Christ and His Deity. The Gnostics had removed “theos” (God) which is a noun and changed it to “Hos”, which is a pronoun. This is a glaring attack upon the Lord Jesus Christ by removing the fact that He was and is God, and specifically as God being the Savior. I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour. (Isaiah 43:11)
 
If Christ, as God, did not die upon that cross for His children, then we are still in our sins. For no mere man can die for another and have their sins removed, for who will remove the sins of the one sacrificing himself? Sinner cannot redeem sinner!
 
By removing the name of God, in reference to the incarnation of the Lord Jesus Christ, the authors of the modern versions are admitting their books are not from God but from Antichrist, who is Satan himself. They are not confessing that Jesus Christ came in the flesh, which makes these counterfeit versions, as rooted in Satan and not in God. Christians must begin to realize that these modern versions are not the Bible and will not yield any fruit in the lives of any Christian or church which uses them. In fact, if we use a version which is hostile to biblical truth, we are, in essence, in rebellion against God, simply because we are accepting the false teachings in the false versions and some Christians go so far as to defend these Gnostic books, simply because they refuse to do any research into the versions they use. They will research the stock market for investments, yet their spiritual life seems very unimportant to them.
 
There is a the footnote in the original 1881 Revised Version, which also appears verbatim in the American Standard Version of 1901, which claims that “God” appearing in this verse “rests on no sufficient ancient evidence.” This is probably one of the biggest lies attached to these versions. The truth is that “God” is missing from only 4 of the manuscripts. Of course, the main one that “God” is missing from is Aleph (Sinaiticus). The word “God” is found in over 300 cursives (manuscripts written in script) and many lectionaries. “Theos” in these lectionaries goes back as far as the first century with Ignatius who died around 110 A.D. Lectionaries were used by the church for Bible lessons. This means that “God” was in the original manuscripts but was removed by Satan’s intellects in Alexandria and the horror of it is that the modern scholar agrees wholeheartedly with Satan’s 2nd century intellects. If your Bible reduces the Lord Jesus Christ to a mere man, then you do not have the Bible, you have an inferior imposter.
 
1 John 4:3 has been affected in two major ways. First, they remove the name of “Christ” which is the title for the Lord Jesus. Then they remove the portion of text which deals with His incarnation. One of the major tests of a true believer is their firm belief in the incarnation of Christ. Anyone can say that they believe that Jesus is from God. You do not even need to acknowledge Him as God’s Son. You can just view Him as a prophet, a good teacher, a good man or any way you want and still say He came from God. Herein lies the great deception. There are countless millions who see Christ as just a prophet or good man and by doing this they think they are in right relationship with God. The importance of the incarnation cannot be over-stressed because the Son of God left His Throne in heaven and took on a human body to die for the sins of the Elect. If one does not believe this, then they are not of God as the rest of the verse teaches. The Gnostics did not believe that anything holy could ever exist in human flesh and therefore they completely deny any belief in the incarnation of the Son of God. They also disbelieve the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in a true believer. This unbelief of the Gnostics has been carried through to the modern versions of Scripture. It is so sad that the Bible which is written about the Lord Jesus Christ should so vilify Him in the modern versions and what compounds it is that the majority of Christians accept them as real Bibles.
 
Gnostic teaching did not allow for any deity to dwell in sinful flesh, so they removed the name of God and changed it to “He” in 1 Timothy 3:16, which can now make room to substitute anyone else’s name. The problem here is that this attack is answered by another verse of Scripture. And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. (1 John 4:3)  We looked at 1 John 4:3 in the CSB and you will see a pattern emerge. What is missing from that verse? The part about Jesus coming in the flesh! Do you see the underlying spirit of Satan which permeates these modern versions? They remove “God” in 1 Timothy 3:16 and so no one will question it, they remove the reference of Christ coming in the flesh in 1 John 4:3. It is a shame that so many churches and Christians are doing the work of Satan by proliferating these evil books under the name of Christianity.
 
(41) The Apostles Paul’s Mission – 2 Timothy 1:11
(KJB) Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.
                                                                                                    
(CSB)   For this gospel I was appointed a herald, apostle, and teacher
 
In many places in the Old Testament God had promised that the Gospel was going to be preached to the Gentiles. The Lord Jesus Christ even stated that the Gospel was going to the entire world. And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. (Mark 16:15)  At the time the Lord Jesus Christ made that statement, the Scriptures had been written for the Jews (yet applicable to all Christians) but when God saved the Apostle Paul, He made him the teacher of the Gentiles which became his primary ministry, especially concerning the founding of the churches in various areas. And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook his raiment, and said unto them, Your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean: from henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles.  (Acts 18:6)
 
The Gentiles would continue the churches up until the last day and along with these churches was needed written guidance. The Apostle Paul, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, had penned 13 books of the Bible, 14 if you believe Paul wrote Hebrews. Those 13 books became the guidelines for Christian living, for church government, and discipline plus the guideline for the Lord’s Supper. When the section of the verse “of the Gentiles” is removed, it eradicates the part of the verse which is a specific fulfillment of the promise of God that the Gospel would be sent to the Gentiles and the appointment of the Apostle Paul as an Apostle and Teacher of the Gentiles is part of the fulfillment of God’s promise. Once again the CSB with their Jehovah’s Witness and Roman Catholic counterparts have attacked a vital doctrine of a promise of God to the Gentile world.
 
(42) Doctrine of Forgiveness – Philemon 12
(KJB) Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels:
 
(CSB) I am sending him back to you—I am sending my very own heart
 
Paul makes an impassioned plea for Onesimus to Philemon. Onesimus, a slave, had left Philemon and met up with Paul. Onesimus became a Christian and Paul was now sending him back to Philemon. In verse 12 Paul desires that Philemon receive Onesimus. The word that is removed from the CSB in the Greek means not only to receive Onesimus back into the service of Philemon but means that Paul is desiring that Philemon would “accept, welcome, to take along side, or to welcome with hospitality.” In the CSB, Paul is seen as just sending him back to Philemon and without the desire that Philemon accept him as a brother, it could be interpreted that Paul is sending him back and Philemon can do what he wants to Onesimus. The CSB leaves out the element of mercy and compassion that Paul desires Philemon to show to Onesimus. The great lesson here is that we, before salvation, as servants of sin, return unto the Lord as children of God and that He has great compassion on us not giving us the punishment we deserve. This is the great message of verse 12 that the Lord receives us as brethren and no longer as a slave because our relationship has changed. Once again the modern versions leave out a great lesson about the compassion of the Lord toward His children. This verse also teaches that when a child of God strays, He will receive us back as His children.
 
(43) Doctrine of Christ – Purged the Sins of the Believer – Hebrews 1:3
(KJB) Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
 
(CSB) The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact expression of his nature, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.
 
Here is a subtle attack on two of the most cardinal doctrines of the Christian Faith. In the first attack, the words “by himself” have been omitted. Any true Christian knows that it was the Lord Jesus Christ who went to the cross to pay for the sins of the Elect. No one helped Him nor did anybody else have anything to add to the sacrifice of Christ. In fact, knowing what the Roman Catholics would do with Peter, the Lord Jesus had to remove him to a different place or else they would teach that he assisted the Lord in His sacrifice. By removing the words “by himself” it removes the reality that Christ Himself is the Savior of His people and that it was He who died. And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. (Matthew 1:21) When the fact that Jesus Himself was the sacrifice, the CSB conveys that God had purged our sins by other methods. A person who believes in works can claim that God accomplished their salvation by giving them certain works to do. A Roman Catholic can claim that God will accomplish their salvation by letting them spend time in Purgatory. So by removing those very important words “by himself” it opens up the door for a host of belief systems which attempt to circumvent the personal cross of Christ.
 
The second cardinal doctrine that is attacked is for whom did Christ die. Many believe He died for the sins of the whole world, that is, for every single person who lives on Earth. This can be taught when you remove the word “our” because that word “our” points to a specific group of people for whom Christ died and that was His people. His people are not the unregenerate nation of Israel which the Premillenialists teach but “His people” are those who are the truly redeemed of God by free grace, chosen out of every nation on earth from before the foundation of the world, including both Jews and Gentiles. The word “our” specifies for whom Christ died and by removing it, you can create another verse which seemingly would teach universal salvation. Hebrews 1:3 is a long verse and by removing those three words, it changes the meaning of it. Once again the King James Bible shows its doctrinal superiority and purity in comparison with the modern versions.
 
(44) Doctrine of Heaven – Hebrews 10:34
(KJB) For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.
 
(CSB) For you sympathized with the prisoners and accepted with joy the confiscation of your possessions, because you know that you yourselves have a better and enduring possession.
 
Here we read that the writer to the Hebrews, which I believe is Paul, states that some believers had compassion on him while he was in prison.  The CSB turns that into another generic statement that they had compassion on those in prison.  Paul is making it personal that their kindness was directed at him.  Then he tells them that they joyfully accepted the spoiling of their goods because in Heaven they have an enduring substance which is eternal life where no evil will ever again affect them.  The CSB omits the fact that Heaven is the eternal bode of the believer and once again leaves a question as to what that possession is and where it is.  It seems the CSB rejects both Heaven and Hell.
 
(45) Doctrine of Confession – James 5:16
(KJB) Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
 
(CSB)  Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is very powerful in its effect.
 
James 5:16 has been changed from “faults” to “sins” in the CSB. Hort and Westcott were both Roman Catholics and for them to change the wording to read “sins” gives credence to the Roman Catholic system of Confession. Nowhere in the Bible are we ever commanded to confess our sins to one another. We are to confess our sins to God for it is only He who can forgive sins based upon whether a person is truly saved. Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only? (Mark 2:7) The Pharisees were absolutely correct in that only God can forgive sins. In the Roman Catholic system, there is a very false belief that the Priest can give absolution for sins, in other words, they believe they hold the power to forgive sins. The bigger question is who forgives the sins of the Priest?
 
The word for “faults” in the Greek is “paraptomata” which carries with it the meaning of “a misdeed, offence or a mishap.” It basically carries the meaning of referencing a subjective weakness of a person.” It does not necessarily mean a person is sinning. For example, a person may come upon a car accident and see blood and instead of getting involved, they remain in the car when they could have helped. Now they could not stand to see the sight of blood and that is where they have a weakness which caused them not to be involved because of their weakness in that area and that does not mean they are sinning.
 
The word which replaced “paraptomata” in the CSB is “hamartias” which is translated sin in the rest of the New Testament and it references a transgression of God’s law. It can be adultery, lying, stealing or any violation of God’s law and this is very different than a person having a weakness in a certain area. A person having a weakness in a certain area will not be the reason an unbeliever goes to hell but the transgression of God’s law will condemn a person eternally. This is a very important difference and shows how the CSB once again placates Roman Catholicism and proclaims a very false teaching.
 
(46) Doctrine of the Holy Spirit – 1 Peter 1:22
(KJB) Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:
 
(CSB) Since you have purified yourselves by your obedience to the truth, so that you show sincere brotherly love for each other, from a pure heart love one another constantly,
 
The corruption is where the Greek words (dia pneumatos) has been removed. These words are translated “through the Spirit” which is a reference to the Holy Spirit. This deletion attacks the work of the Holy Spirit in the life of a true believer. By removing this phrase it makes it look like a person has the ability to obey God on their own, without the regenerating power of the Holy Spirit. The fact is that if a person does not have the Holy Spirit indwelling them, they are unsaved. But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. (Romans 8:9)  The Romans verse confirms that if a person does not have the Holy Spirit living in them, they do not belong to Christ. The only way a person can ever be obedient to the truth is when the Holy Spirit is dwelling in them. In other words, we see a very important tenet of salvation being omitted here. No person, who is in the flesh, can ever please God. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. (Romans 8:8) Therefore, when the Gnostics removed this portion of the verse, they were keeping in line with their disbelief of a spirit world, especially the Holy Spirit. Their idea of salvation is to be pumped up with more and more knowledge and the modern church is being destroyed one degree at a time.
 
(47) Doctrine of the Holy Spirit – 1 Peter 4:14
(KJB) If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
 
(CSB)  If you are ridiculed for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you
 
This verse has been mutilated by removing 8 words in the Greek and 15 words in English. The reference in this verse is to the Holy Spirit. “…for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you:…” The Gnostics did not believe in the Holy Spirit so to prevent themselves from being judged by the Scriptures for their blasphemy against Him, they removed the part which states that they speak evil against Him. The Holy Spirit, by indwelling the true believer, brings glory to Himself in the manner of salvation of God’s Elect. The glory of the Holy Spirit is the way He guides and indwells the believer forever without ever leaving them for any sin they commit. Obviously the modern translators of the CSB tend to agree with the Gnostics because they have allowed this part to remain deleted. The doctrine of the Holy Spirit is a cardinal doctrine of the Christian faith. By removing these 8 Greek and 15 English words, they are attacking the doctrine of the Holy Spirit which is a direct attack upon the trinity, which the Gnostics and many modern theologians deny. So for anyone to claim that the modern versions do not attack doctrine is to boldly lie and all liars will have their place in the Lake of Fire. But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. (Revelation 21:8)
 
(48) Doctrine of the Trinity – 1 John 5:7
(KJB) For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
 
(CSB)  For there are three that testify:
 
1 John 5:7 is probably the clearest example of the teaching of the Trinity.  All three of the persons of the Godhead are mentioned.  It also states that all three persons are one which means there is unity of essence between the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.  If you notice the CSB omits the teaching part of this verse simply because the Gnostics did not believe in the trinity.  The CSB makes no sense the way this verse is translated.  It states there are three that testify.  Who are the three?  What are the three?  It completely removes the teaching of the Trinity.  There are three sets of verses below which give a well-defined teaching on the trinity so there is no reason why it should be omitted from the CSB.  John Calvin in his Institutes of the Christian Religion (mid 16th Century) in Book 3, Chapter 1, section 1 mentions 1 John 5:7-8 without any doubt.  Tertullian (155-220 A.D.) quotes 1 John 5:7.  If it does not exist, then how could he quote it?  The CSB rendering is just another attack on a cardinal doctrine of Christianity.
 
{16} And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:  {17} And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.  (Matthew 3:16-17)
 
{10} And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:  {11} And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.  (Mark 1:10-11)
 
And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.  (Luke 3:22)
 
(49) Doctrine of God – Jude 25; 1 Timothy 1:17
(KJB) Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.  (1 Timothy 1:17)
 
(KJB) To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen. (Jude 25)
 
(CSB)  Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. (1 Timothy 1:17)
 
(CSB)   to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, power, and authority before all time, now and forever. Amen. (Jude 25)
 
The CSB omits “wise” in both verses and adds “before all time” and “through Jesus Christ our Lord” to the text of Jude 25.
 
Jude 25 has received three hits by the Gnostic and intellectual hit squads:
 
1) With the removal of the Greek word “sophoo” they have removed a description of God as being “wise.” The Gnostics must have felt that God is not wise, yet they themselves felt they were wise. When we look at the creation, we see the wisdom of God before our eyes and when we read the Scriptures we read the wisdom of God. In fact, the first eight chapters of the book of Proverbs deals with the subject of wisdom. This removal of the description of the wise nature of God is just another attack upon the Doctrine of God because when you remove any portion of His description, then you are attacking His character and wisdom is definitely one of the main characteristics of God.
 
2) Here is another major attack upon the Lord Jesus Christ. What is attacked here is His Deity and the fact that he is our Savior. Jude 25 teaches that Jesus, who is God, is the only wise God our Savior. By adding the phrase “through Jesus Christ our Lord,” it refocuses the passage on God the Father. Then it is only through the Lord Jesus Christ that God is our Savior, completely removing the fact that Jesus is the Savior and making Him only a conduit.
 
3) The corrupted manuscripts added “before all time” to this verse. I do not know for what reason it was added and by whom.
 
(50) Doctrine of Christ – Makes the Believers Kings and Priests – Revelation 5:10
(KJB)   And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
 
(CSB) You made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they will reign on the earth.
 
“Us” is changed to “them” - “kings” is changed to “kingdom” - “we” is changed to “they” (the modern versions take away the reality that the Christians will be made kings in God’s Kingdom. By changing “us” and “we” to third person plural words, it gives the idea that someone else, rather than “us” are going to be the kings.
 
This is one of those verses which has seen the apostates knife in three places. To gain the context of this verse we need to back up to verse 9.
 
And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; (Revelation 5:9)
 
In Revelation 5:9, we read of the Saints in Heaven singing praises to the Lord Jesus Christ for their salvation. John is describing the fact that the redeemed are singing a new song and then he goes on to quote the words of that song. The believers are praising Christ for redeeming them to God by His blood. “…thou has redeemed us…” Then the context is picked up in verse 10:
 
And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. (Revelation 5:10)
 
Not only was the believer redeemed unto God, He made us Kings and Priests and we will reign in those positions on the earth. In both verse 9 & 10, we see that they are referring to themselves in the song by the word “us” in both verses and the word “we” in verse 10. In the modern versions, and we will look at the NIV and the 1901 ASV as representative.
 
(NIV) And they sang a new song: "You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation.
 
(1901 ASV) And they sing a new song, saying, Worthy art thou to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou was slain, and didst purchase unto God with thy blood men of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation.
 
If you will notice in just these two versions, the personal nature of salvation by those who are singing the song is removed. The modern versions make it sound like those in Revelation 5:9 & 10 are singing about another group of individuals by using the word “they” and removing the fact that the redeemed are the ones praising Christ. The redeemed are thankful that they are redeemed and are made Kings and Priests. They are not singing this song on behalf of another group because only they are the redeemed from the earth. Not only do the modern versions remove the personal praise aspect of these verses, but they also remove the fact that Christ has made us Kings. And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (Revelation 1:6) Revelation 1:6 is a confirmation of this fact and vice versa. The CSB turns our Kingship into a kingdom. They take a plural word “kings” and replace it with a singular word “kingdom.” Now it is true that when we become saved we are in the kingdom of God, but that is not what is in view here. What is in view is that we are made kings and priests within the kingdom of God. The English words “we shall reign” is one word in the Greek and it is in the future tense and probably points to our positions in the New Heaven and New Earth. The fact that God has made us kings and priests along with a ruling position is why these believers are singing and praising Christ. These verses are important because it shows an aspect of salvation which is much more than just being saved from hell. The modern versions divert the believer from the reality which is ours and focus them on some other mythical group which does not exist, except only in the minds of Hort and Westcott.
 
 
Well Are you Satisfied that the Christian Standard Bible is another counterfeit version?  So who cares if Allistair Begg and Tony Evans endorses them, you now have the proof! Oh, these 50 affected doctrines and teachings are not enough?  Well then look below I have 15 more verses which shows a direct connection to the Roman Catholic Church.
 
The Direct Roman Catholic Connection in the CSB!
 
Here we will see in these 15 verses is the term “bread of the presence,” a very Roman Catholic term denoting Transubstantiation which Catholics believe that after consecration the bread and wine turn into the body and blood of Christ. We see this very openly in the CSB which is a very popular version in many churches today. Many Christians died under the Inquisition because they refused to accept this heresy and Christians today are carrying in their CSB the very teaching which caused the deaths of their brothers and sisters in the past.  This must grieve the heart of the Lord that Christians are following the teachings of the biggest whore church on the planet.  First some quotations from Roman Catholic Websites and then the 15 verses.  The CSB is worse than the ESV in this regard because the ESV has “Bread of the Presence” in 10 verses.  The modern versions get more heretical with every new translation or revision.
 
Below are some quotations from Roman Catholic websites which speak of the “presence.”

From - http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/05573a.htm

In order to forestall at the very outset, the unworthy notion, that in the Eucharist we receive merely the Body and merely the Blood of Christ but not Christ in His entirety, the Council of Trent defined the Real Presence to be such as to include with Christ's Body and His Soul and Divinity as well. A strictly logical conclusion from the words of promise: "he that eateth me the same also shall live by me," this Totality of Presence was also the constant property of tradition, which characterized the partaking of separated parts of the Savior as a sarcophagy (flesh-eating) altogether derogatory to God.

From the Roman Catholic Catechism - http://www.vatican.va/archive/ccc_css/archive/catechism/p2s2c1a3.htm

1376 The Council of Trent summarizes the Catholic faith by declaring: "Because Christ our Redeemer said that it was truly his body that he was offering under the species of bread, it has always been the conviction of the Church of God, and this holy Council now declares again, that by the consecration of the bread and wine there takes place a change of the whole substance of the bread into the substance of the body of Christ our Lord and of the whole substance of the wine into the substance of his blood. This change the holy Catholic Church has fittingly and properly called transubstantiation."

1377 The Eucharistic presence of Christ begins at the moment of the consecration and endures as long as the Eucharistic species subsist. Christ is present whole and entire in each of the species and whole and entire in each of their parts, in such a way that the breaking of the bread does not divide Christ.

1378 Worship of the Eucharist. In the liturgy of the Mass we express our faith in the real presence of Christ under the species of bread and wine by, among other ways, genuflecting or bowing deeply as a sign of adoration of the Lord. "The Catholic Church has always offered and still offers to the sacrament of the Eucharist the cult of adoration, not only during Mass, but also outside of it, reserving the consecrated hosts with the utmost care, exposing them to the solemn veneration of the faithful, and carrying them in procession."
