I am so grateful for GOD’S blessing through the assistance of Tom DeOro in bringing Daily Spurgeon.tv to the Internet for the enrichment of DailySpurgeon,com, an internet site that brings Gospel Content from Charles Haddon Spurgeon and supports the continued use of the Immutable Authorized King James Bible (1769 edition). Our prayer is that through this instrumentality many will be Born Again and will continue in the Joy of the Lord, peace that passes understanding, the continued loving fellowship with one another and the God-kind [Agape] of love that GOD has so generously given.

Thank you in the name of The Lord Jesus Christ [Anointed Messiah] for His sake and by His Grace, All Glory to Him.
Your brother in Christ,
John Michael

THE SUPERIORITY OF THE KING JAMES BIBLE

_____________________________________

DR. ROBERT G. LEE, former pastor of Bellevue Baptist Church in Memphis Tennessee is recorded here, preaching the remarkably inspired SERMON
“Pay Day Someday” (Click Here) 75 minutes

He preached this message over 1,000 times to over a million people resulting in many being drawn to confess and repent [turn away from] their sins, and to look to Christ Jesus, and Him alone for eternal life, and to confess Him publicly to be their Savior and Lord as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

Dr. Lee preached from The Formal Equivalent (Literal / word-for-word) Providentially Preserved and Protected, Everlasting WORD of GOD, The 1769 Edition of The Authorized, Authoritative King James Bible: The Inspired [God Breathed], Immutable! [never will be changed], inerrant and Infallible [incapable of error].

DAILY SPURGEON and DEVOTION for October 29th *A.D. 2026 written and calendared by Charles Spurgeon.

King James the First of England Approved, Authorized, Commissioned and provided the leadership to create a new version of the Bible. This new Bible translation was directed by the King to be based on the existing Bishop’s Bible (The Bishop’s Bible consists of The Old Testament copied from the ancient Hebrew [Masoretic] text. The meticulous work of preserving and copying the ancient Hebrew text was done by the faithful Masoretes. Their core mission was to safeguard the original Hebrew Scriptures [The Tanakh / Old Testament] so that its meaning, pronunciation and accuracy would never be lost.

The Priest / Scribe ultimate biblical model for this role is Ezra 7:12 “Ezra the Priest, the scribe of the law”.

The Traditional [original, Received Greek Text] The Textus Receptus is the Master text from which the King James translation of the New Testament is taken. The King James Version of 1769 is Providentially preserved and protected and is the most authoritative and most quoted, and most read Bible version ever. It has circulated over 6 Billion copies. This is more than all the other versions and editions Combined and has become the Most Influential, faithful and best Bible ever.

The NEW King James version is inferior to the [OLD 1769] King James Bible.

DR. JEFF RIDDLE brings to light the Case that the Traditional Text, also known as The Received Text, [The Textus Receptus, TR] ARE THE PROVIDENTIALY PRESERVED, IMMUTABLE, INSPRED Words of GOD.

THE TESTIMONY OF CHARLES SPURGEON'S CONVERSION IN HIS OWN WORDS. (Click here)
______________________________________________

—*A.D. does NOT mean “After Death”.
Rather, it abbreviates Anno Domini;
… a Latin phrase adopted into English that means:
“Year of our Lord."
______________________________________________

Does BC/AD versus BCE/CE really matter? …YES. IT DOES!
Defend the Truth. Stand against the attempt to mislead, Won’t you? ...More
The new terms are meaningless because BCE and CE still denote the exact number of years in relationship to the birth in Bethlehem of Jesus Christ [The Anointed Messiah].

Dr. Michael Nazir-Ali, the former Bishop of Rochester, says: 'This amounts to the dumbing down of the Christian basis of our culture, language and history. These changes are unnecessary and they don't achieve the BBC’s objective [of wiping out any mention of or reference to Jesus Christ, His birth or His life]. ’

'Whether you use “Common Era, CE” or “Anno Domini, AD”, the date is actually still exactly the same and the reference point is still the birth of [Jesus] Christ.

DR. DOUG LEVESQUE presents a Historical account to show why we should not rely on the more than 1,100 dumbed- down English translations translated from the CRITICAL TEXT; An Inferior text cobbled together by self-appointed men that follow Satan’s questioning words in the Garden of Eden:
“Hath God Said ?”

Bridge to Babylon The 1881 Textual Criticism Controversy (Click Here)
(169 minutes. Video)[jM1]

“Bridge to Babylon” is an exceptionally thoughtful Treatise of the explosion of over 1,100 English translations of the Bible. An expose of the continuous attempts to replace the Traditional 1769 King James Version of God’s Holy, Inspired, Inerrant, Infallible and Immutable Bible. All Attempts have failed and will continue to do so because GOD Himself providentially preserves and protects His Inspired, Inerrant and Immutable [God Breathed/Spoken] Words from all heresy, blasphemy, confusion, error and misinterpretation .

Over six Billion (1769) King James Bibles establish it as the most widely printed, read and distributed book in human history. This is more than all other translations put together and it continues to be the most quoted and most read Bible ever.

___________________________________________

Scroll to bottom of p. 28 for “ 19 EPISODES” of THE PILGRIM’S PROGRESS written in 1678 and is second only to the Bible as the all-time most widely printed and distributed book ever. It has never been out of print.

A Memorial Honoring the Memory of John Michael’s *Dad:

The last words, spoken by John Michael’s beloved Daddy.

Charles Dumah Riley, Sr. (AKA: *Daddy, "CD", and Paw Paw) 1897 – 1987

JM witnessed the last few hours of his *Daddy’s life on earth coming to an end and heard him say only “Amen” over and over, in the belief that he was affirming and agreeing with God’s will in the conclusion of his own life’s and giving a testimony of God’s goodness to him and his agreement and his surrender to his earthly departure to be eternally present with the Lord Jesus.

Amen... Amen… and Amen!

My Daddy’s standard prayer before every meal, was always offered with all gravity, reverence and always heard in the unique sound of his deep Bass prayer voice:

“Accept our thanks for these and all other blessings, we humbly ask in Thy name, Amen.”

Discerning between The Holy Ghost and the spirit of the Antichrist and false teachers:

Is this Website from God? and therefore trustworthy?

God says in His WORD to try every spirit to determine whether they are of God, and therefore to be believed or whether they are from the antichrist and must not be belived.

1 John 4:1-3

Chapter 4
1Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try [test] the spirits whether they are of God, because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye [by this you all [will] know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth [confesses] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is of God: 3 and every spirit that confesseth not [doesn’t confess] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof [of which] ye [you all] have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

Therefore, Daily Spurgeon’s Website must hereby confess that

"Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh!” as the Body, The Bride of Christ; of His Church.

PRAYER 13, Part 10 of 11 October 29th THE WINGS OF PRAYER. by CH Spurgeon

Oh! help us. Spirit of the living God, continue still to travail [labor] in us. Let the groanings that cannot be uttered remain within our Spirit, for these are growing pains, and we shall grow while we can sigh and cry, while we can confess and mourn; yet this is not without a blessed hopefulness that

He that hath [has] begun a good work in us will perfect it in the day of Christ [Jesus, the Messiah].

Bless, we pray Thee, at this time, the entire Church of God in every part of the earth. Prosper the work and service of Christian people, however they endeavor to spread the kingdom of [Jesus] Christ.

Convert the heathen [lost in sin]; enlighten those that are in any form of error. Bring the entire Church back to [Faith in Jesus Christ] the original form of Christianity.

Make her first pure, and then she shall be united.

O, Savior, let Thy kingdom come. Oh! that Thou wouldest [would] reign, and

Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

[I pray this in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ Amen.]

(Attachment: PRAYER 13.doc)

ANECDOTE 89: October 29th THE RIGHTEOUS SAFE.
A certain carping infidel [complaining unbeliever], after having argued with a poor countryman who knew the faith, but who knew little else, said to him, “Well, Hodge, you really are so stupid that there is no use of arguing with you, I cannot get you out of this absurd religion of yours.”

“Ah! well,” said Hodge, “I dare say I am stupid, master, but do you know we poor people like to have two strings to our bow ?”

“Well,” said the critic, “what do you mean by that ?” “Master, I’ll show you. Suppose it should all turn out as you say; suppose there is no God, and there is no hereafter, don’t you see I am as well off as you are? Certainly, it will not be any worse for me than it will be for you, if we both of us get annihilated.

But don’t you see if it should happen to be true as I believe, what will become of you!” Clearly in either case it must be right with the righteous; for if he should have ignorantly received a cunningly devised fable, yet, seeing according to his own experience, it makes him a better and a happier man, so far so good he is no loser here; and he will be certainly at the last in no worse a position than the man who rejected the holy and comfortable influences of what he styled [saw as] a deception.

While, if the religion of Jesus should be true — ah! ghastly “IF” for you who doubt it?— if it should all be true, ah! Then, your weeping and your wailing at the discovery will be a terrible contrast to the joy and glory which God has reserved for them that love him.

Upon the very lowest possible ground it will be well with the righteous, as well, at any rate, as with the best of other men.

FAITH’S CHECKBOOK October 29th MAINTAIN THE DIFFERENCE
by C.H. Spurgeon
And I will put a division between my people and thy people: tomorrow shall this sign be. Exodus 8:23

-Y yo pondré redencion entre mi pueblo y el tuyo. Mañana será esta senal- Exodo 8:23

Pharoah has a people, and the Lord has a people. These may dwell together, and seem to fare [get along] alike but there is a division between them, and the Lord will make it apparent. Not for ever shall one event happen alike to all, but there shall be great difference between the men of the world and the people of Jehovah’s choice [the chosen].

This may happen in the time of judgments, when the Lord becomes the sanctuary [place of refuge and safety] of His saints. It is very conspicuous in the conversion of believers when their sin is put away, while unbelievers remain under condemnation. From that moment they [believers] become a distinct race [a peculiar people], [having] come under a new discipline, and enjoying new blessings. Their homes, henceforth [from that time forward], are free from the grievous swarms of evils which defile and torment the Egyptians [unredeemed]. They [believers] are kept from the pollution of lust, the bite of care [the pain of worry], the corruption of falsehood, and the cruel torment of hatred, which devour many families.

Rest assured, tried believer, that though you have your troubles you are saved from swarms of worse ones, which infest the homes and hearts of the servants of the world’s Prince [Satan].

The Lord has put a division; see to it that you keep up the division in spirit, aim, [purpose] character and [good] company.

Prayer: Thank You Lord that we have been chosen, forgiven and redeemed from the consequences of our sins. Thank You that You put a division between the world’s people and Your chosen and redeemed people.
Thank You for the atonement for our sins paid in full on the cross once and for ever through Your only begotten Son. Please help me to see and adhere to this division clearly every day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

16 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.

God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten [supernaturally fathered] Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but may be having eternal life.

vis. The Textus Receptus TR [Received Text] faithfully rendered and in substantial agreement with the overwhelming majority of 5,321 extant Greek manuscripts of the New Testament known as the [Majority Text] from which the Textus Receptus was rendered . The Hebrew manuscripts were meticulously copied by hand by the Masoretic scribes of the Old Testament. Sinaiticus and Vaticanus codices are not of comparable quality as they are often in disagreement with each other. They have been co-mingled with the invented Critical Greek of Westcott and Hort.

This invented Text consist of a mere Fifty-five 55 manuscripts from the 5,321 were hand-picked from these compromised codices that contain multiple variant readings and were set forth as Critical Text modern textual criticism ostensibly to replace The Traditional [Textus Receptus] that was under attack for many years by Westcott & Hort and Nestle & Aland who invented but did not disclose themselves as the source of this new Greek translation. They insisted on a code of silence as to the authorship of the Greek Text from which all the Revisions were to be made from all members of the committee who made the 1881 revisions to the King James Bible. …The Modernized Revised Version.

Modern textual criticism is based on the false assumption that older manuscripts are, de-facto, better. Actually, the unsettled changes from the variant readings reflect doctrinal ambiguities and are sometimes used to bolster doctrine that is unsupported in scripture of a secular or denominational tradition or to allow blasphemous translations to diminish God’s Sovereignty, Omnipotence, Omnipresence, Immutability, Inerrancy or Infallibility and to rob Glory from His infinite and everlasting “I AM” that is deserving of ALL GLORY.

MORNING October 29th

"AFTER THIS MANNER THEREFORE PRAY YE: OUR FATHER WHICH ART IN HEAVEN. . . ." —Matthew 6:9

Vosotros, pues, oraréis así: Padre nuestro que estás en los cielos…— Mateo 6:9

THIS prayer begins where all true prayer must commence, with the spirit of adoption,

“Our Father.”

There is no acceptable prayer until we can say, "I will arise, and go unto my Father." This childlike spirit soon perceives the grandeur of the Father

"in heaven," and ascends to devout adoration,

"Hallowed [Holy] be Thy name." The child lisping, "Abba, Father," grows into the cherub [angelic child] crying, "Holy, Holy, Holy."

There is but a step from rapturous [ecstatic, joyful] worship to the glowing missionary spirit, which is a sure outgrowth of filial [the family relationship of a child and parent] love and reverent adoration—

"Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven."
[God’s will on earth done like it is in heaven; His kingdom authority]

Next follows the heartfelt expression of dependence on God—

"Give us this day our daily bread."

Being further illuminated by the [Holy] Spirit he discovers that he is not only dependent, but sinful, hence he entreats [earnestly asks] for mercy,

"Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors."

And being pardoned, having the righteousness of Christ imputed and knowing his acceptance with God he humbly supplicates[earnestly asks] for holy perseverance,

"Lead us not into temptation."

The man who is really forgiven is anxious [eager] not to offend again; the possession of justification leads to an anxious [eager] desire for sanctification.

"Forgive us our debts," that is justification;

"Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil," [the evil one] that is sanctification in its negative and positive forms. As the result of all this, there follows a triumphant ascription of praise,

"Thine [Yours] is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, for ever and ever, Amen."

We rejoice that our King reigns in providence and shall reign in grace, from the river even to the ends of the earth, and of His dominion, there shall be no end. Thus, from a sense of adoption, up to fellowship with our reigning Lord, this short model of prayer conducts the soul.
Lord, teach us thus to pray.

EVENING October 29th

"BUT THEIR EYES WERE HOLDEN [Restrained] THAT THEY SHOULD NOT KNOW — Luke 24:16

—Mas los ojos de ellos estaban embargados, para que no le conociesen— Lucas 24:16

THE disciples ought to have known Jesus; they had heard His voice so often, and gazed on that marred face so frequently, that it is wonderful [a wonder] they did not discover [recognize] Him.
Yet is it not so with you also?

You have not seen Jesus lately. You have been to His table, and you have not met Him there. You are in dark trouble this evening, and though He plainly says,

"It is I, be not afraid,"

yet you cannot discern [see] Him. Alas! [Oh, my!] our eyes are holden [fixed and searching] . We know His voice; we have looked into His face; we have leaned our head upon His bosom, and yet, though Christ is very near us we are saying,

"0 that I knew where I might find Him"

We should know Jesus, for we have the Scriptures to reflect His image, and yet how possible it is for us to open that precious book and have no glimpse of the Well-beloved!

Dear child of God, are you in that state? Jesus feeds among the lilies of the Word, and you walk among those lilies and yet you behold Him not [don’t see Him]. He is accustomed to walk through the glades of Scripture and to commune with His people, as the Father did with Adam in the cool of the day, and yet you are in the garden of Scripture but cannot see Him though He is always there.

And why do we not see Him? It must be ascribed in our case, as in the disciples' [case],

to unbelief.

They evidently did not expect to see Jesus, and therefore they did not know [see] Him. To a great extent in spiritual things, we get what we expect of the Lord.

Faith alone can bring us to see Jesus. Make it your prayer,

"Lord, open my eyes, that I may see my Savior present with me."

It is a blessed thing to want to see Him; but oh! it is better far to gaze on Him. To those who seek Him He is kind; but

to those who find Him,

beyond expression is He dear! [He is dear beyond expression!]

A SINNER’S PRAYER

Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:21

Pray and call on the name of the Lord Jesus.

Pray like this, won’t you? :

“Lord Jesus, I’m a lost sinner hopeless without You. I would never be able to save myself. Without your death on the cross to pay my sin debt I would be condemned to spend eternity condemned in Hell. By nature and practice I am a natural-born sinner. I’m totally depraved and I sin because I am a sinner. Please forgive me.

I realize that doing my best or being as good as possible, or being better than other people or having good excuses can never save me.
I look to You, alone Lord Jesus to save me.
I call on You, by name, Lord Jesus, right now to save me. You died on the cross in my place to pay for my sin. Your Word says, “It shall come to pass that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:21. Thank You, Lord.

Right now, I surrender my sinful self to You, just as I am, Lord Jesus. I trust You to forgive me and save me and be my Lord and Savior.
Please forgive me for all my sins. I’m sorry for every sin (bad thoughts, words and things I have done) and look to You to forgive me of them all. I need your strength to overcome sin’s temptations. Thank you for forgiving me.
You paid the price for all of my sins by dying on the cross.

Thank you Lord Jesus that You loved me and died for me before I was born and that You love me still.

Thank you Heavenly Father that You have made the way of redemption, forgiveness and atonement for me and have drawn me away from sin and death into Life in Your only begotten son. He took my place and suffered my punishment.

Thank You, Heavenly Father that you raised Jesus from the dead. He is ALIVE and in Him we are victorious over sin, death and the grave. In Christ Jesus there is therefore now no condemnation.

Thank You for saving me heavenly Father and for sending the Holy Spirit for my guidance, comfort and solemn instruction into all truth, Amen.”

With all my heart, I thank you Lord Jesus for saving me. In your name, Lord Jesus I pray, Amen.

Sing: This Little Light of Mine Children’s Chorus by JAMJAR Sing-along won’t you? This PRAISE music came to mind from today’s ANECDOTE.

Better [to] have two lights than only one. The light of creation is a bright light. God may be seen in the stars; his name is written in gilt letters on the brow of night; you may discover his glory in the ocean waves, yea, in the trees of the field; but it is better to read it in two books than in one.

David Hocking (click here) enlightens us with historical facts that make viewing the case for the OLD KING JAMES VERSION; time well spent.

You will find it here [in the Bible] more clearly revealed; for he has written this book himself, and he has given you the key to understand it, through the Holy Spirit. Ah, beloved, let us thank God for this Bible; let us love it; let us count it more precious than much fine gold.

[The Authorized immutable King James Version, (AKJV) used by Charles Spurgeon is
God’s preserved, and protected inerrant and immutable Word.

David Hocking makes the case for the Protected translation of the Bible, and points out the textual errors of “Critical Text” and the erroneous Theory followed by all modern English translations due to Westcott and Hort’s inferior Greek Translation of the New Testament. Text that follows incomplete and conflicting Greek manuscripts rather than the coherent and reliable Traditional Text [Received Text (Textus Receptus)] for the New Testament and the Masoretic Hebrew Text for the New and Old Testament respectively of the Authorized King James Bible.

“The Bible, The Whole Bible and Nothing but the Bible” is an expression David Hocking expresses often.

Behold Your God Isaiah 40:9 with Dr. Peter Masters

https://metropolitantabernacle.org/sermons-online/behold-your-god/

Our society today knows so little about almighty God, having willfully shut Him out of all consideration. But look, says the Bible, at His attributes, ways and plans. Consider the uniqueness of God and compare His actions, plans and promises with those of human society.

The natural will is cold, hard iron, which cannot be hammered into form, but the renewed will, like molten metal, is soon molded by the hand of [God’s] grace. In the fleshy heart there is a tenderness of the affections.

The hard heart does not love the Redeemer, but the renewed heart burns with affection towards Him. The hard heart is selfish and coldly demands, "Why should I weep for sin? Why should I love the Lord?"

But the heart of flesh says;
"Lord, You know that I love You; help me to love You more!"

Many are the privileges of this renewed heart; " 'Tis [It is] here the [Holy] Spirit dwells, 'tis here that Jesus rests. " It is fitted to receive every spiritual blessing, and every blessing comes to it. It is prepared to yield every heavenly fruit to the honor and praise of God, and therefore the Lord delights in it.

A tender heart is the best defense against sin, and the best preparation for heaven. A renewed heart stands on its watchtower [on guard] looking for the coming of the Lord Jesus.

Have you [Do you have] this heart of flesh?

THE INFERIOR CRITICAL TEXT:

The Incomplete and unsealed codices of Sinaiticus and Vaticanus do not pretend to be majority texts, [Original Masoretic Hebrew and the Greek Textus Receptus]. Sinaiticus and Vaticanus present variant, ambiguous and erroneous readings rather than that of the well-established and settled texts. They disagree often with one another as well as with the settled majority texts. Thus, an attempt to create a pretext that will continue to justify a never-ending demand for additional editions and interpretations. These unsettled differences and bias in certain sectarian doctrine [dogma] have led to the production of multiple “modern” editions with ambiguities, many variant readings and confusion from the explosion of unending, new editions.

Profit-driven publishers have embraced such an economic windfall to sell a continual flow of “new and better” English edition of The Bible. They give too little attention to the fidelity and accuracy already settled [in heaven] in majority manuscripts of the Masoretic Hebrew and the Greek Textus Receptus.

Psalm 119:89-90

ל Lamed

89 Forever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.

90 Thy faithfulness is unto all generations:

thou hast established the earth, and it abideth [abides].

God, Himself, providentially protects and preserves His Word. His Word is the God-breathed, self-authenticating, immutable [unchanging and unchangeable], eternal, inerrant, infallible, infinite and all-powerful Word, settled in heaven. GOD is not the author of confusion.

1 Corinthians 14:33

WHO IS THE GOD OF THE BIBLE?
by David Hocking

WHAT ARE HIS NAMES?

(1 One) His Name is INCOMPREHENSIBLE!

Exodus 3:13-15 “13 And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? 14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. 15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.”

Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given:
and the government shall be upon his shoulder:
and his name shall be called Wonderful,
Counsellor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Psalm 139:6

Authorized (King James) Version

it is high, I cannot attain unto it.”

(2 Two) His Name is INFINITE!

Psalm 145:1-3
1 I will extol thee, my God, O king;
and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.
2 Every day will I bless thee;
and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.

3 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised;
and his greatness is unsearchable.

Romans 11:33
33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!

(3 Three) His Name is INCORRUPTABLE!

(two issues: holy and eternal)

Psalm 135:13
Thy Name, O LORD endureth for ever; and Thy memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations.”
Psalm 145:21

(4 Four) His name is IMMUTABLE! [Unchanged and unchangeable]

Malachi 3:6
“For I am the LORD, I change not.”

Hebrews 6:18
That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have (1) a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon (2) the hope set before us.”

(5 Five) His name is INCOMPARABLE! [Without Equal]

Deuteronomy 4:35
“Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightiest know that the LORD He is God; there is none else beside Him.”

Deuteronomy 4:39
Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the Lord he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.

(6 Six) His Name is INDESCRIBABLE! [No description adequately describes HIM]

El, Eloah, Elyon, Elohim, Adon, Adonai, - Yah, Yahveh
(The Names for GOD used 10,952 times in the Bible!)

To Abraham – His Name is El Shaddai [God Almighty, Abundant Provider, Provider of More than Enough]

Genesis17:1 ,

Why Cults, False Teachers and Heretics have tried to delete 1 John 5:7

In Defense of I John 5:7

Why The Traditional Greek Text Also Known As The Received Text [Latin: Textus Receptus] TR is Inspired, Inerrant and Immutable.

By Dr. David Sorenson

In addition to overwhelming evidence of authenticity from the 5,321 Majority Text Greek manuscripts, this link gives Translational Evidence that proves the age of the Textus Receptus to be older than the Codices Sinaiticus, Vaticanus and Alexandrus.
(Inferior Greek sources used in Critical Text translations.)

This includes Westcott and Hort, Nestle and Aland and the Codices Sinaiticus and *Vaticanus.

*The final Greek Text so deemed, authorized and sanctioned by the Catholic Church and The Vatican.

The Lord Jesus *Christ [The*Anointed Messiah]

was supernaturally Fathered by the Holy Ghost, and born of a teen-aged virgin girl named Mary 2026 years ago in Bethlehem of Judea.

He was crucified, and His lifeless body was placed in a tomb. After three days, GOD brought Him back to life again, and raised HIM from the dead victorious over sin, death and the grave.

He is GOD’S Incarnate WORD and Everlasting SACRIFICE, The LAMB of GOD, [THE WORD of GOD made flesh.] The CHURCH is the BODY of *Christ,
*[The MESSIAH.]

[The CHURCH] is His espoused [Legally Obligated] Bride, for whom HE will come again to consummate the Marriage in the Marriage Supper of the Lamb in the Preserved and Protected Words of GOD.
These WORDS are God-Breathed, [Spoken] Eternal WORDS spoken by Almighty GOD. The same GOD who calls Himself “I AM”, is Omni-Lingual, Omnipotent, Omniscient, Immutable, All-Wise, Omnipresent, Eternally and Supremely Holy. He is the One-and-Only Triune, Three-in-One GOD.

“I and my Father are one”. John 10:30

________________________________

1 John 5:7 Is the fundamental scriptural basis for the doctrine and essential tenet of the Trinity. [The Triune, [Three-in-One] GOD in-Three Persons (This verse has been omitted or Changed to diminish the authority and the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ or has been Removed entirely from all Critical Text translations by apostates that hold to the untenable goal of False Doctrine that gives rise to all manner of Cults, False Teaching, Heresies, false Prophets, Agnostics, Gnostics, Atheists and Pagans.

Therefore, The incarnate WORD of GOD, [Jesus *Christ
(*The Anointed MESSIAH) and His Father are ONE.] John 10:30

7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, [Jesus Christ] and the Holy Ghost: and
THESE THREE ARE ONE. John 10:30

8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, [Holy Ghost] and the Water [Life of the Father], and the Blood; [The Sacrificial Blood of Jesus Christ]: and these three AGREE IN ONE. 9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son, [The LORD Jesus *Christ
*(The Anointed Messiah)].

GOD calls Himself “I AM” and Jesus Christ is The WORD made Flesh, GOD’s WORD is infinite and will endure FOREVER, from Eternity Past through the never-ending Eternal Future.

The Traditional Text: It's History & Manifestation

By Dr. David Sorenson

In addition to evidence of authenticity from the 5,321 Majority Text manuscripts, this link presents Translational Evidence that the Traditional Text is Inerrant, Infallible and is the Inspired [Word-by-Word, GOD-Breathed Greek Text that moved the Prophets and Apostles to write precisely the Greek and Hebrew words they were told to write by the Holy Ghost]

The Traditional Text. Length: (33:56 minutes)

The Traditional Greek Text was printed, not written by Desiderius Erasmus and was used in the FIRST Christian Church at Antioch. It was later called The Received Text [vis. Latin: The Textus Receptus TR].

Over Five Billion King James (1769 Edition) Bibles, [NOT the NEW King James Version which is based on the inferior Critical Greek Text] account for more sales world-wide than all other version or edition of the Holy Bible combined.

This is more than all other Bible Versions and Editions put-together.
______________________________________

The Critical Text vs. The Traditional Text
(Also Known As The Received Text , The Textus Receptus TR , and The Authorised Version AV and AKJV)

By Dr. David Sorenson

…So, Dr. Sorenson, “I hear You are King James Only.”

No, I’m Traditional Text only. But if you come to the view and the conviction of being Traditional Text only, you will be Only King James.

The issue is not translational.

Marketing ploys by publishing companies with little basis in reality would have us to believe that the new versions are:

Easier to read.
More modern.
More accurate (Not true)

The truth is that the KJV remains The most popular. (is still the most popularly read Bible in America). Over five billion copies of the King James (1769) is greater than all the other versions and editions combined.

The issue comes down to the textual issue. By That, I refer to the underlying Greek text. I guess we could say texts, plural but particularly that of the New Testament. On the one hand is the Traditional Text from which the only major English translation is the King James Version of the Bible. The Traditional Text.

On the other hand, is the Critical Text sometimes called the eclectic text from whence all the other translations come. And some will say well there really is no difference between them. The difference you could amount to is just the footnotes in the bottom of a page. (This is Not true) He was not dishonest but just repeating what someone had told him.

Thank you, Lord, for DailySpurgeon.com a website given by You to encourage and support personal devotions to the Lord Jesus. This ministry started with sending e-mails of Faith’s Checkbook by Charles H. Spurgeon to Jon Edward Riley and others he would add..

Jon was called home by his loving Father in Heaven on January 16, 2021.

His memory is honored here, giving honor to whom honor is due. We pray that through this and all other instrumentalities that God may effect, many will be born again, challenged, encouraged, and supported to grow in personal devotion to the Lord Jesus Christ while being conformed to His image; that they might be the firstborn among many brethren..

A PRAYER OF GRATITUDE: (Tribute to the BRAVE) by Jon Edward Riley,

(February 12, 1971- January16, 2021)

From an Indigenous, Irish, well beloved All-American son giving a prayer of gratitude to the Lord for a “ Heart of Freedom”

INDIAN SCOUT POST NO 1 Burial grounds at White Shield, North Dakota.

… a compassionate prayer of gratitude, thanking the Lord for the Military Service of Native-American Scouts serving the United States of America. …the land of the free and the home of the Brave.

________________________________________

Jon loved to say, “I’m a blood bought, born-again child of God!” to anyone he happened to meet.

… Jon’s testimony is from one who, by grace through faith was forever accepted in the Beloved; who’s loving ways brought the good news of Jesus to many. and one who is present with the LORD in glory forever. One with whom we’ll one day meet again.

Amen.

Jon would sometimes just sing-out some of the following songs on the way to church, or sometimes just singing along with the Elvis Gospel CD that was always in our F-150’s CD player while riding with his Dad or,

Best of all, when an inspired, spontaneous praise from the Lord would just pop out from his joyful and loving heart.

The Life of King James (Click Here forText)

ORIGINAL SACRED LITERATURE:
The Pilgrim’s Progress, by John Bunyan

Beginning at its original publication in 1678 it has NEVER been out of print.

"All the flowers in God's garden are double." There is no single mercy. You may think you have but one mercy, but you shall find it to be a whole cluster of mercies. It is abounding mercy. Millions have received it, yet far from its being exhausted, it is as fresh, as full, and as free as ever.

It is unfailing mercy. It will never leave you. If mercy is your friend, mercy will be with you in temptation to keep you from yielding; with you in trouble to prevent you from sinking; with you [in] living to be the light and life of your countenance; and with you [in] dying to be the joy of your soul when earthly comfort is ebbing fast [slipping away].

You may want to read the daily selections as a bed time story for you and your little ones. .

It’s the world’s most famous allegory and is the all-time, world-wide best seller second only to the Bible. Some believe it to be the world’s first novel written in English.

It will bless, encourage and instruct pilgrims (readers and seekers) of all ages for a life-time.

My Lord “Will-be-will” [Mr. Self-will] is a great blusterer, [one who roars loudly with empty threats, menaces or protests] and it is hard to subject him to God's will; but when the heart of flesh is given, the will quivers like an aspen leaf in every breath of heaven, and bows like a willow in every breeze of God's Spirit.

Mr. Self-will is a personification in The Pilgrim’s Progress

(The world’s most widely read and most famous Allegory written by John Bunyan in 1678 and has NEVER been out of print.)
