    The following WHOLE verses have been removed in the NIV--whether in the text ...

    Matthew 17:21 -- COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness "Bible"]. What are you NIV readers missing?
    "Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting."

    "For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost."

    Matthew 23:14 -- COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness "Bible"]. What are you NIV readers missing?
    "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation."

    Mark 7:16 -- COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness "Bible"]. What are you NIV readers missing?
    "If any man have ears to hear, let him hear."

    Mark 9:44 -- COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness "Bible"]. What are you NIV readers missing?

    "But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses."

    Mark 15:28 -- COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness "Bible"]. What are you NIV readers missing?
    "And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors."

    Mark 16:9-20 (all 12 verses) -- There is a line separating the last 12 verses of Mark from the main text. Right under the line it says: [The two most reliable early manuscripts do not have Mark 16:9-20] (NIV, 1978 ed.) The Jehovah's Witness "Bible" also places the last 12 verses of Mark as an appendix of sorts.

    Luke 17:36 -- COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness "Bible"]. What are you NIV readers missing?
    "Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left."

    Luke 23:17 -- COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness "Bible"]. What are you NIV readers missing?
    "(For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)"

    John 5:4 -- COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness "Bible"]. What are you NIV readers missing?"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."

    Acts 8:37 -- COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness "Bible"]. It's deletion makes one think that people can be baptized and saved without believing on the Lord Jesus Christ. Sounds Catholic. What are you NIV readers missing?
    "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."

    Acts 15:34 -- COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness "Bible"]. What are you NIV readers missing?
    "Notwithstanding it pleased Silas to abide there still."

    Acts 24:7 -- COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness "Bible"]. What are you NIV readers missing?
    "But the chief captain Lysias came upon us, and with great violence took him away out of our hands,"

    Acts 28:29 -- COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness "Bible"]. What are you NIV readers missing?
    "And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves."

    Romans 16:24 -- COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness "Bible"]. What are you NIV readers missing?
    "The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen."

    I John 5:7 -- Vitally important phrase COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness "Bible"]. In the NIV it says,
    "For there are three that testify:"
    Compare the NIV reading with the following Jehovah's Witness reading--
    "For there are three witness bearers,"
    What are NIV readers missing? What does the real Bible say?
    "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one."


    This is one of the GREATEST verses testifying of the trinity. That is why the Jehovah's Witnesses leave it out. They do not believe in the trinity and they do not believe that Jesus is God. Why does the NIV leave it out...? Whole books have been written on the manuscript evidence that supports inclusion of this verse in the Bible. Reader, do you believe in the tri-unity of God? If so, then you might find this deletion a problem.



    The NIV perverts Jesus Christ into Lucifer!
    Isaiah 14:14 reveals Satan's grandest desire, "I will be like the most High." And with a little subtil perversion - the NIV in Isaiah 14:12 grants Satan's wish!

    ISAIAH 14:12: The KJB reads, "How art thou fallen from heaven, O LUCIFER, son of the morning!. . ." The NIV PERversion reads, "How you have fallen from heaven, O MORNING STAR, son of the dawn. . ." The NIV change "Lucifer" to "MORNING STAR".

    BUT WAIT. . . I thought the Lord Jesus Christ was the MORNING STAR?

    Doesn't Revelation 22:16 say, "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".

    The NIV CLEARY AND BLATANTLY makes LUCIFER -- The Lord Jesus Christ! WHAT BLASPHEMY! WHAT PERVERSION! And Christians claim the NIV is a "better translation"!

    ISAIAH 14:15: The King James Bible condemns Lucifer to hell: "Yet thou shalt be brought down to HELL . . ." The NIV does NOT condemn Lucifer to HELL! The NIV reads, "But you are brought down to the GRAVE. . ." We all go to the GRAVE! Why doesn't the NIV want Satan in hell?

    The NIV perverts the deity of Jesus Christ!
    I TIMOTHY 3:16: The clearest verse in the Bible proclaiming that Jesus Christ was God. The King James Bible (KJB) reads, "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: GOD WAS MANIFEST IN THE FLESH. . ." The King James says, plainly, "GOD was manifest in the flesh". The NIV reads, "HE appeared in a body". The NIV "twists" "GOD" to "HE". "HE appeared in a body"? So What? Everyone has "appeared in a body"! "He" is a pronoun that refers to a noun or antecedent. There is no antecedent in the context! The statement does NOT make sense! The NIV subtilty (see Genesis 3:1) perverts I Timothy 3:16 into utter nonsense!

    PHILIPPIANS 2:6: The KJB again, clearly declares the deity of Jesus Christ: "Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery TO BE EQUAL WITH GOD" The NIV reads, "Who, being in very nature God, DID NOT CONSIDER EQUALITY WITH GOD something to be grasped,". The NIV again subtitly perverts the deity of Jesus Christ!

    The Bible warns against taking away and adding to the words of God!
    Deuteronomy 4:2 reads: "YE SHALL NOT ADD unto the word which I command you, NEITHER SHALL YE DIMINISH ought from it . . ."

    Proverbs 30:6, reads, "ADD THOU NOT unto his words . . ."

    And just in case you missed it, GOD'S LAST WARNING is Revelation 22:18,19, ". . . If any man SHALL ADD unto these things. . . 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 Jesus Christ, in Luke 8:12, gives a clear aim of Satan, ". . . then cometh the devil, and TAKETH AWAY the word . . ."

    I know that all the confusion in the minds o people nowadays, is due to the fact that since the times of the apostoles, the ones who were ordained by christ in the meridian of times, there has not been prophets niether apostles called by God, since is he who chosses them and not us choosing him. for many centuries, men has relied on their personal percepction of what is right or not, thus bringing forth many points of view and gospels. One God, one faith, one baptism, arent these the words of Paul? then why are we not united on this? why are there many gods, many faiths, and many baptisims? is this the work of God? indeed it isnt, but the work of men, without the influence of the Holy Ghost, who testifies of the truth. Then what do we need to look forth? Prophets and Apostles called by God, in these, the fulness of times, just as Peter testifed, in which all things would be restored in Christ. For God will certanily do nothing without giving his message unto his servants, the PROPHETS. I testify that today we do have Prophets and apostles called by God, in the CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER DAY SAINTS, i do say it in his name.

    i wish with all my heart I could tell everyone in the world to please please please get out of the religious box we've been in since the dark ages. But this only going to happen with the decline of ignorance! The enemy's weapon against us. If someone reads something they don't agree with, look it up. The word Lucifer appears only one time in biblical history and that was in the Latin Vulgate. No where in the entire bible does it say point blank Satan is Lucifer!! Believe me, I have been studying the bible extensively for over 40 years and all I've come up with was confusion and questions the  most learned pastors couldn't answer. then I finally decided to stop going to church and listening to everyone else told me what to think and believe. Boy am I glad I did!!! Please take my advice, look things up, do some research on the history of the bible for yourself. Everyone says that the KJB is sooo great! Well, which one? The original one from 1611 was taken mostly from Wycliff, Coverdale, Rogers, and others. It included the Old Testament Apocrypha, this was supposed to be inspired by God.Then about 150 yrs. ago, someone just decided it wasn't necessary anymore and removed it, By doing so they had to remove over 155,000 characters and many verses, I've forgotten the number. So let me ask you, who was listening to God?The ones that put the Apocrypha in or the ones who took it out? Still the KJB. Does your pastor preach about the Apocrypha? There are so many things out there to read and consider.Isn't there a bible verse that says if everything that had been written were to be gathered there wouldn't be a book big enough to hold it all.Do you really think that our Great Creator would  only want to read what little there is in one book? I urge you please!!! Open your heart and you mind and you common sense, maybe even your spirit and get out of religious box. I don' t think Jesus or His Father like being put in one either. Start with the Nag Hammadi texts.

    OK.. think I can help here.  Firstly in the NIV where a verse appears to be missing it never is, it is always at the bottom of the page in the footnotes.  The reason for this is because the scholars who put together the NIV and some of the other versions went back to the original Greek and Hebrew manuscripts when compiling the Bible whereas others had used the vulgate (latin translation) in effect translating from a translation.
     
    The NIV uses a key line in the footnote that says "the older and more reliable manuscripts do not contain..."  The scholars were keen to stick with the texts as they originally appeared as closely as possible... trying to steer clear of annotations by later authors.  I think the wisdom of doing this prevailed when the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered and the earliest manuscripts of the OT books were more in line with those.
     
    One thing we should always be careful about is the Vulgate... because we know for a fact that it was doctored.  How do we know this?  It's a documented fact that there is a verse in Zechariah that refers prophetically to Christ as "The Branch".  Now, during the reign of one of the pope's... a monk deliberately retranslated that phrase in one of the passages as "the olive".  Why did he do this?  The pope at the time's family symbol was the olive tree.  With the substitute verse in place, the pope was convinced to follow a certain course of action that made it look like he was fulfilling a prophecy.... but the prophecy in it's original context referred to Christ.
     
    The King James and every other English version don't fall into the same trap.
     
    What you should bear in mind is that there are some old fashioned people out there who have an agenda.  They are the kind of people who object to Graham Kendrick... heaven forbid Matt Redman songs in church.  The NIV is a relatively new translation... having been completed in the 70's... so older traditionalists are automatically going to have a problem with it and look to shoot it down in flames.
     
    I like the NIV... the language isn't as patronisingly simple as the GNB... but it isn't as stuffy, over intellectual and legalistic sounding as the KJV can sound.  Please note I'm not saying I hate either of those versions, it's just I find the KJV a little too complex sounding on occasion and the GNB too simplistic.  I do not deny they have benefits for people who appreciate that writing style.
     
    I've always believed in taking a "Romans 14" position towards Bible translations myself... I personally might take issue with one or two versions, but I don't berate others for reading them and gaining access to the wisdom of God through them.
     
    I do take issue with the "Contemporary NIV" though, because it bows too much to political correctness and I believe it loses some of the context because of this.
     
    I hope this helps, I'm not condemning any of the versions I've mentioned... if you benefit from any of those versions, do not take my words as a rebuke, they are not.  I just wanted to present an alternative way of looking at the debate.
